A national train tour called the Dream Tour took place during the month of June to bring attention to the importance of immigration reform. The trains departed from corners of the U.S. on June 13th and made several stops along the way to Washington D.C. with a rally on June 20th in DC. Three farm workers from Porterville who were affected by the citrus freeze (Elia Molina, Angelina Zabala, and Mirna Gonzalez) participated on this tour and had the opportunity to tell their stories and dreams to the public, media, and Congress.
