“This is a travesty of justice”


Recently, an important member of my community, Maria Mendoza Sanchez, was deported. Maria left behind her three daughters,one of which is only 16 years old, and is currently under the legal care of her 23 year old sister. These girls are too young to survive on their own; they need their mother back.

Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) has introduced a bill that calls for the return of Maria along with her husband and young son who were deported with her. Will you sign my petition supporting this bill?

Bills like these that seek to help individuals stay in or return to the United States are only introduced to Congress under special circumstances – the individuals they seek to protect must make valuable contributions to society, and be needed by family here in the U.S. Maria is undoubtedly one of these individuals.

Sign my petition now to help bring Maria back to the United States.

Maria began her career as a nursing home housekeeper and went on to become a respected oncology nurse who served underprivileged patients in California. She owned a home here, and neither her or her husband hold criminal records.

Now, Maria is in Mexico, along with her 12 year old son who has never been to the country before. Her family is torn apart, and my local community feels her absence. Please, sign my petition to reunite Maria with her family in the U.S.

Thank you for your support,

Nancy MacKinnon
