We in the state of Connecticut are faced with the same situation as Watsonville: federal raids and deportations of immigrant workers. Congratulations on a successful action!
Join the picket line in front of City Hall to ...

STOP THE DEPORTATIONS!
FREE THE DANBURY 11!
LEGALIZATION FOR ALL!


Saturday, September 30
Danbury, Connecticut
Assemble at Kennedy Park at 12:30 p.m.
March to City Hall and form a picket line at 2:00 p.m.

On September 19, the city government of Danbury assisted an immigration raid in
our own community. Disguising themselves as contractors, a police agent picked
up 11 people looking for work and detained them without telling their families.

Mayor Boughton's Assistant told a local newspaper that raids are coming next to
Stamford, Brewster and Katonah. This is nothing but a conscious attempt to
terrorize the immigrant community!

It is time to stop Mayor Boughton & his Police Chief. We will not be
terrorized! Stop the Deportations! WE WANT THE DANBURY 11 FREED!

To contact Mayor Boughton: (203) 797-4511, m.boughton [at] ci.danbury.ct.us

Initiated by the Danbury Area Coalition for the Rights of Immigrants, the Ecuadorian Civic Center of Danbury, and the Danbury Coalition for Peace.
