Latinos Plan Nationwide Worker Strike
Hispanic groups in the U.S. are planning a major boycott of American life
dubbed a "day without Latinos" to protest proposed legislation that would
criminalize illegal immigration.
Mexican American Political Association (MAPA) President Nativo Lopez, one of
the organizers of the recent protests in Los Angeles that saw at least
500,000 people take to the streets, said the May 1 "day without Latinos" would
send a stern message to Washington.
"We are looking forward to a major action in all large U.S. cities where
immigrants make up a significant proportion of the workforce," Lopez told Agence
France-Presse.
"We are asking people not to go to school, or work, or shopping, and instead
to go out and protest against the racist and inhumane measures in this
bill."
