Texas

Thank you for visiting us! Mi Familia En Acción is a national nonprofit organization that works to build Latino, immigrant, and allied political power through civic participation. But today, certain leaders in power try to silence Texan voices by undermining their freedom to vote and turn us against each other so we won’t show up for our family and friends. Together as a community, we can create a Texas that truly serves everyone, no matter the color of their skin. Take action with us today!

TX Priorities

In our Texas, we are:

  •  Uplifting our youth to ensure that our democracy at all levels of government fairly reflects our interests and communities. As Texas grows younger and more diverse every day, it’s more urgent than ever that we support and develop young civic minded leaders in our community.
  • Organizing where environmental injustice disproportionately affects our communities and allies. We all deserve clean air, water, and soil.
  • Providing free services and technical assistance to eligible legal permanent residents to apply for citizenship. We build power by tackling barriers that prevent our community from accessing full citizenship.
  • Equipping our communities with the civic engagement tools they need to activate their vote in key elections. Our ballot is a bullhorn to amplify our voices and exercise our voting rights freely and fairly.
  • Working in coalition with partners across key issues to strategically expand our reach, equitably include the voices and interests of community allies, and activate the strength of diversity that we each bring to the table.

Dallas Voter Guide

Famiila en Dallas,

Election Day is almost here!

Dallas voters will decide on 21 propositions, and we're highlighting 8 key propositions that will shape the future of our community.

Mi Familia en Acción is providing you a Voter’s Guide for you to make your own informed decision. As a non-partisan non-profit, we are here to remind the community that they are the experts in their own lives, they know what’s best for their communities and that our democracy is more successful when more people are participating.

We hope you find this guide helpful and if you need additional support with finding a polling location or general election questions, you can reach us by emailing txinfo@mifamiliavota.org or place your question in the Mi Familia Contigo Chat on the right side corner or this page!

TX Programs

Our citizenship assistance efforts strive to ensure that all eligible legal permanent residents, particularly those of Latin American origin, have the tools and resources at their disposal to achieve their unique American citizenship dream. Our team conducts citizenship information sessions to community members to inform them of eligibility requirements and how to prepare to file for citizenship. Additionally, our team partners with trusted legal professionals to provide confidential pro-bono legal consultation and review N-400 forms. After receiving Citizenship support from Mi Familia en Acción, eligible individuals can mail their forms with full confidence and receive their citizenship a few months later! Through our unique partnership with the government of Mexico, Mi Familia en Acción has access to Mexican consulates in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada and Texas to help eligible Mexicans to achieve American citizenship.

As the largest field operation in the Latino Community, we are proud to work on important policy priorities that impact our people on a daily basis. Mi Familia en Acción's main goals are: Immigration, Healthcare, Voting Rights, Environment, Reproductive Rights, Workers Rights, Education.

Our multi-layered voter mobilization program does strategic targeted outreach to thousands of Latino voters. Every election, whether local, state, or federal, our teams are on the ground, at the doors, and on the phone having the necessary conversations that help get Latino voters to the polls. Mi Familia en Acción prides itself in having the largest field infrastructure in the Latino community that turns out voters each election. Our electoral participation power is deciding the outcomes of elections.

With Latino youth becoming a growing force across our nation, Mi Familia en Acción intentionally provides civic leadership learning and skills development focused on Latino youth ages 18-30 years old. Through our ladder of engagement and organizing model, youth become informed, motivated, empowered, and called to action to be civic leaders. Mi Familia en Acción supports Latino youth in their individual and collective civic journey. As a result, our youth leaders have led their own voter registration drives, advocate for their issue priorities with elected officials, and support our voter mobilization efforts to get out the vote in their networks.

Mi Familia en Acción has 7 priority issue areas that we actively engage community members and elected officials on. These issues include immigrant rights, workers’ rights, voting rights, access to affordable healthcare, access to quality education, climate justice, and reproductive justice. Our teams on the ground engage in city, county, and state level governments to advocate for specific policy priorities. Each year, our team educates and empowers Latino community members to understand their state’s Legislative Session. Our community-focused advocacy efforts provide individuals with the opportunity to ensure their lived experiences impact the policymaking process.
