Get ready and prepare for May Day:
A Day without Latinx and immigrants
It's time to restore Driver Licenses For All!
Monday, May 1st in Milwaukee at 11:00 AM
March with us from the original Voces office at 1027 S. 5th Street to the Milwaukee downtown DMV. We’ll rally and then end with a celebration at Zeidler Park!
For decades, drivers licenses had been available to immigrant drivers up until a federal law blocked them in 2007. Since that time, states have had to individually work to get them back. So far, 19 states have been successful. We’re working to make Wisconsin state number 20!
Join us on Monday, May 1st, 2023, as part of a national day of action, for our annual statewide strike and mass march that is the culmination of our participation in four statewide joint finance public hearings and elevate our other demands:
Demand that President Biden: End 287g; Extend TPS (Temporary Protected Status)
Demand the U.S. Congress: Pass immigration reform
Wisconsin Republicans: Stop blocking drivers licenses for all and in-state tuition!
Wisconsin School Boards: Champion school lunch justice!
May Day 2023 will include a mass march that will kick off at 11:00 a.m. from the Voces Milwaukee office, located at 1025 S. 5th. Street, Milwaukee, WI, 543204.
We will be marching to the Milwaukee downtown DMV office located at 819 N. 6th Street. After a rally at the DMV, we will end with a community celebration at Zeidler Park at 301 W. Michigan Street with music, food, children’ s games, and informational tables. The total route is 2 miles, please prepare and dress appropriately.
