 Socialist Action\n \nThe raids conducted by Immigration and Customs 
 Enforcement Agency has swept up over 18,000 immigrants nationally and more 
 than 800 in the Bay Area. Many are sent to detention centers along the 
 border where they can expect swift deportation without any regard for their 
 human and legal rights.\n\nThis Homeland Security campaign, named 
 “Operation Return to Sender,” tears apart families and seeks to 
 terrorize a whole population of 12 million immigrants in the the U.S. 
 Meanwhile, the official alternative offered in Congress is some form of 
 legislation that would create an indentured-servitude-like guest worker 
 program making immigrant workers dependent on their employer for their 
 legal status.\n\nA massive outpouring of 4-5 million immigrants and their 
 allies on May 1, 2006 demonstrated the potential power they have to 
 determine their own fate.\n\nDedicated activists around the country 
 continue to organize to stop the raids. They are part of the new and vital 
 civil rights movement in the U.S. for dignity and legalization of all 
 undocumented immigrants.\n\nFind a PDF of flyer at

 forward, and distribute widely.\n\nIn solidarity,\nMark Ostapiak\n
