[migrawatch-public] ICE RAIDs Response

As you probably have heard as many as 900 people where detained in
California ICE raids this month with more than half from northern
California. Only 1/5 had any misdemeanor or criminal convictions.

There will be a Denouncing ICE Raids Press Conference and Rally here in
Santa Cruz, Friday, May 30th, 2008 @ 5:00 pm- 8:00 pm at Beach Flats
Community Park 161 Raymond St.

I hope everyone can be there.

As usual indybay has had some very good coverage of the recent raids
