"Made in L.A. follows the remarkable story of three Latina immigrants working in Los Angeles garment sweatshops as they embark on a three-year odyssey to win basic labor protections from a mega-trendy clothing retailer. In intimate verite style, Made in L.A. reveals the impact of the struggle on each woman’s life as they are gradually transformed by the experience. Compelling, humorous, deeply human, Made in L.A. is a story about immigration, the power of unity, and the courage it takes to find your voice." www.MadeinLa.com

The DREAM Act is back!
We're excited to tell you that the DREAM Act of 2009 was introduced as S.729 and H.R. 1751 on March 26 by Senator Durbin (IL) and Rep. Berman (CA), with 7 Senate co-sponsors and 9 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives. Since then, we have gained 11 more co-sponsors in the Senate.
This act would give thousands of young immigrants the unprecedented chance to study and attain U.S. citizenship.
There's still a lot of work to be done. We need more support in Congress to get to the magic number of 60 Senators and 218 House Reps that we need for the act to pass.
Here are 10 things you can do to help. Take the pledge and act today to turn our dreams into reality!

-- Have lived in the U.S. continuously for five years;
-- Graduated from a U.S. high school or obtained a GED;
