LOS ANGELES, May 31, 2008 – A group of about 50 people gathered today at Olvera Street and marched to the downtown federal building for a demonstration against the ongoing ICE raids in local communities and workplaces. The raids are tearing families apart when undocumented parents are seized and deported leaving their US born children behind. ICE raids have been increasing in scale and brutality. There are reports of violence and human rights violations by ICE officers during recent large scale raids locally and in Iowa this month.
