_MAKE THE CALL, SIGN THE PETITION TO SUPPORT SERGIO - It's a matter of
life or death! _
(http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=7mseHNVje9zUp4l5BDE/1ogZstRbAMzU)
This week, there were some great victories for workers, immigrants, the
LGBT community, and more BUT the work for us and for the people we fight for
continues.
One of our leaders of the Dignity at Darden campaign in Los Angeles has
been in an ICE detention facility since May of this year. Sergio is a ROC-LA
member, a gay man living with AIDS, who was recently diagnosed with cancer.
Doctors found a tumor in his head - but Sergio is not getting the medical
treatment he needs.
Please take a minute to sign this petition:

(http://org2.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=UnBxRcZo3dROgVZn6zoD81Y+t7Toq+r4)
Sergio was told he needs chemotherapy as soon as possible but he is not
getting the treatment he needs in detention. His health is deteriorating
rapidly, and without the proper treatment Sergio could die soon. Santa Ana
City Jail has a record of abuses of gay and transgender detainees, delays in
medical care, and reports of mistreatment. Sergio needs to be released
immediately!

, share it with
others, and make a call to ICE!
Call ICE – John Morton @ 202-732-3000
Sample Script: “Hi, I am calling to urge ICE to release Sergio Vazquez
Gutierrez (A# 200-243-222) from the Santa Ana City Jail in California. Sergio
was recently diagnosed with cancer and a tumor in his head. He needs
immediate surgery to remove the tumor before it's too late. Sergio must be
released from detention to get the treatment he urgently needs. Let him go!"
Thank You!
ROC United
