Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform

Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform

Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform (CAIR) is an immigration reduction organization based in Lakewood, Colorado. The organization's goals are the elimination of illegal immigration into Colorado and a more sustainable level of legal immigration nationally.

CAIR is part of the grassroots immigration reduction movement and has an action alert system.

Members are alerted to pertinent articles in Colorado newspapers and are encouraged to write letters to the editors advocating CAIR's viewpoint. CAIR regularly holds rallies and discussions in Denver and elsewhere in Colorado.

CAIR worked closely with Defend Colorado Now in order to obtain the necessary signatures for the November 2006 ballot initiative, however the initiative was stricken by the courts and a bill was passed by the state legislature in its place.
