In late March, students and supporters across the nation flooded the streets for the shooting survivors of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., at the March for Our Lives. In June, the organization launched its national tour, Road to Change, which will include a July 17 stop in Las Vegas and Henderson among its more than 50 stops nationwide this summer.

Additionally, the March for Our Lives organizers are planning a separate tour in Florida with more than 25 stops, visiting every congressional district in the state, according to their website.

The national movement is encouraging people to continue their involvement by voting or organizing a voting registration drive, starting a school club to talk about gun violence, or by signing their petition online at marchforourlives.com/sign.

The Trump administration rolled out a zero-tolerance policy eight weeks ago, separating children from their parents seeking asylum at the southern border.

While President Donald Trump signed an executive order to end the policy, more than 2,300 children were already separated from their parents, and most have not been reunited.

Immigration activists across the nation have come up with ways to bring awareness to the aftereffects of the policy. Rallies were staged across the country, including in Las Vegas, last weekend. With the rallies now behind, ACLU Nevada’s communication manager Wesley Juhl suggests calling or writing to your congressional representatives to press your point of view. Or you can call the White House public comment line at 202-4561111 or the switchboard to speak to an operator at 202-456-1414. He also suggests looking for organizations donating goods to asylum seekers or joining local organizations such as ACLU Nevada.
