Social Justice

Taking Part in Social Justice

The Social Justice Committee of the 1st UUC of Wausau invites you to take part in their campaign to reinstate driver’s licenses for undocumented immigrants. We hope to flood our representatives in Madison with personal letters urging them to vote for Governor Evers’ proposal to restore restricted licenses to those who pass driver’s education and get insurance. Personal letters have been found to be more effective than mass produced or emailed correspondence. Our campaign will run throughout the month of June. We are including a list of reasons for the restoration as well as more information on this topic. We would appreciate your joining us in our efforts.
