LOS ANGELES, September 2, 2006 - Immigrants Rights supporters held a march and rally in downtown this Saturday. Although only a fraction the size of the massive marches of March 25 and May1 this march still drew an estimated 3,500 people.
One of the central issues is the division of families when the children of immigrants who are born in the US and have US citizenship by birthright are separated from their parents by forced deportations. In recognition of this the march was dedicated to immigrant women and their children everywhere who are facing the same threat.
