[Immigration News Briefs] On Sept. 2, about 5,000 immigrant-rights
supporters marched through downtown Los Angeles to City Hall as

The march was organized by the March 25th Coalition [ http://www.March25Coalition.org ]

In Chicago, at least 400 supporters of immigrant rights kicked off a
four-day march from the city's Chinatown at noon on Sept. 1.
The marchers will end their 45-mile journey, dubbed the Immigrant
Workers Justice Walk, on Sept. 4 at the office of US House Speaker

include legalization for undocumented immigrants and a moratorium on
