[migrawatch-public] Protesters Demand Feinstein Oppose Immigration Bill

On Saturday, June 2nd, immigrant rights activists gathered in front of
Dianne Feinstein's home in San Francisco to demand that she help to bury
the current immigration bill. To the surprise of the protesters,
Feinstein herself came out to meet them.

Originally her husband came out saying Dianne was still sleeping, but
the assembled activists demanded that they wanted to send their message
directly to the Senator. Eventually she did come out, but her message
was unyielding. She insisted the bill does provide a path to citizenship
and the raids will stop as soon as the bill is law. Activists responded
that among other things, the bill will separate families, further
criminalize immigrant communities, cause more suffering and deaths at
the border, institutionalize worker exploitation through a guest-worker
program, and provide no realistic chances for the undocumented to legalize.
