The March/Caravan for Migrants stopped at the South Steps of the State Capitol in Sacramento on Monday, February 6th. There was a press conference at 12:00 noon and a Rally from 4:00 to 5:30 pm. After its stop in Sacramento, the caravan headed to Arizona, and then eastward across the US. There will be rallies in Washingron, DC on February 18th through 20th, and then the caravan will head westward via Chicago, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, with its return to San Diego estimated for February 26th.

The march for migrants plans to lobby senators and legislators to vote no on issues such as HR 4437; demand justice for Guillermo Martinez Rodriguez, who was assassinated by the Border Patrol in San Diego on 12/30/05; pay homage to the 4000 migrants who have died since the inception of the failed operation gatekeeper in 1994 (4000 crosses will be planted in their honor during the march across America); and hear the voices of migrant and immigrant communities across the country.
