Hundreds of people, including a substantial amount of our immigrant community as well as faith, labor, and civil rights organizations,\u00a0came together and rallied in over 40 cities across the United States. The rallies were meant to increase pressure on Congress to pass a comprehensive immigration reform for this 2013 year that includes a pathway to citizenship.<\/p>\n<p>One of our own Vista board member, Danny Zarate &#8217;15, was interviewed by two newspaper sources.
