Something is wrong with our immigration system—and deep down, Americans know it.  In a speech described as “powerful,” “informative,” “lucid,” and “healing,” Kari Hong draws on decades of experience and research to show how we got here—and how we can change course.  It offers eight concrete, practical reforms rooted in earlier principles and adapted to today, insisting that meaningful change is not only possible, but necessary, to rebuild an orderly, fair, economically-rational immigration system and to renew democracy.

Why We’re Canvassing

Across Missoula, families rely on Medicaid and SNAP to stay healthy and put food on the table. Proposed work requirements could put essential benefits at risk for many in our community. That’s why we’re heading directly to our neighbors to share accurate information, listen to concerns, and make sure people understand what’s at stake.

These changes affect more than just the people who use these programs. They add expensive red tape, wasting taxpayer money on new paperwork and administrators instead of healthcare and food assistance. Many people using Medicaid are already working, caring for kids or parents, or going to school and could lose coverage simply because they don’t have time to reapply quickly. In rural Montana, these cuts put local hospitals and clinics at risk of closing.

This canvass is about connection, education, and protecting access to basic needs programs that keep our community strong.

Canvassing Dates

• Sunday, March 1 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
  Missoula Westside Neighborhood

• Sunday, March 15 | 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM

Volunteer Training

Friday, February 27 | 5:30 – 6:30 PM

Whether you’re brand new or experienced, this training will set you up for success.
