HUNGER STRIKE AND WEEK OF ACTIONS TO STOP ANTI-IMMIGRANT BILLS!

Over 50 hunger strikers and organizations will start a seven-day protest in front of the Federal Building in San Francisco on Tuesday, March 21, 2006 calling for fair and just immigration reform, and to denounce Senator Arlen Specter’s bill that designates all undocumented immigrants as aggravated felons, allows for the indefinite detention of non-citizens, and criminalizes day-labor centers, churches, health clinics and all others who serve, help or work with undocumented immigrants.
