LA Voice has recently teamed up with Univisión and other immigrant rights’ advocates from across the region for the ¡Ya Es Hora! (Now is the Time) citizenship campaign. The goal of this campaign is simple: urge the 1,000,000 eligible legal permanent residents in the Southern California region to become citizens and vote.

Just last week, the LA Voice organizing committee at San Francisco Catholic Church held a registration event for parishioners looking to start the process. Over 100 people attended. They are eager to become citizens and active, engaged members of their community. Click here to learn more about the ¡Ya Es Hora! campaign.
