"It's going to take a miracle (to stay)," said Dale Cuevas, 23, the family's adult son.<br>
<strong>Calling All Miracle Workers and Organizers of all strips and colors - We need to stop this deportation and draw a line in the sand, so to speak - Join the organizing efforts talked about below and do whatever you can to stop the deportation of the Cuevas family.</strong>

1) we have (and will continue to have) a meeting this Sunday at 3:00pm at the New Covenant Presbyterian Church in San Leandro on Fargo Street. We will be planning the major actions for the month.

2) the first major action is that we will be sending a delegation to
Boxer's office next Wednesday June 9 to formally present her with the list of organizational endorsers. We will follow up with a major rally to support the family June 16 and then a final action (if they don't respond favorably) on June 23

3) action: organizations can send their official endorsements to me and on their own, they can send letters of support to Boxer. Individuals can also send their endorsements to me as letter of support to Boxer; if they are not already involved in an organization they can attend the Sunday meetings because this group will eventually transform into an immigrant advocacy group.
