The We Are Americe Alliance (WAAA) is a national alliance of immigrant rights organizations and allies in the United States that work towards social justice, including comprehensive immigration reform and immigrants' civic participation. The alliance was borne out of broad collaboration around the 2006 immigration reform protests, which mobilized more than 2 million people nationwide during spring, as well as an civic participation campaign during the 2006 elections.
