Members of COFACAN (the Compact of Free Association Community Advocacy Network) have been hard at work advocating for the passage of comprehensive immigration reform measures, that would also ensure the restoration of Medicaid for COFA citizens residing in the U.S. (see picture, left). With the help of the Hawai'i Coalition for Immigration Reform, hundreds of postcards have already been collected and sent to House speaker John Boehner, to encourage him to hear a comprehensive immigration reform measure. Letters to the editor, coordination with advocates on the U.S. continent, and continued communication with our Congressional delegates will all help get this job done -- but we need your help!
