Stop The Raids!!!!

The current situation is urgent. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) agency has increased home and workplace raids where over 195,000 people have been arrested and deported in fiscal year 2006. On October 3, 2007 federal and local authorities in Southern California arrested more than 1,300 migrants. The same day, the Senate voted to spend $3 billion to further militarize the U.S.- Mexico border. In the desert just outside of Tucson at least 271 migrants lost their lives in 2007. On October 9, I.C.E. announced it had carried out another nationwide raid where they arrested 1,313 migrants. Arizona governor Napolitano is getting ready to enforce House Bill 2779 which will massively increase raids and deportations. Families are separated and communities are living in fear and terror.

This is why we are building community power. With the re-launching of the "Stop the Raids" campaign. The campaign's purpose is to build grassroots community organizing, leadership and empowerment within the Raza and migrant community of Tucson.
"Stop the Raids: Migra Out of Our Communities" campaign
