March for Migrants Stops at Capital
March for Migrants
The 'March for Migrants', which was started on February 2nd, was organized to lobby Congress and state legislators to VOTE NO! on issues such as HR 4437 which calls for continued militarization of the border, as well as the criminalization of migrants and anyone who assists them in any way. The March also demands justice for Guillermo Martinez Rodriguez (assassinated by the Border Patrol in San Diego on 12/30/05), and will pay homage to the 4000 migrants that have died since the inception of the failed Operation Gatekeeper in 1994. The new proposed bill will allow for undocumented, (and even some legal), immigrants, including the majority of farm workers, to be prosecuted as aggravated felons. This means they would be subject to jail time and potentially barred from future legal immigration. This will also broaden the definition of "alien smuggling", so that anyone who comes into contact with an undocumented immigrant, such as a church or family member, can be charged as a criminal. View a video of the march here.
