News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Students asked to boycott school for immigration demonstration

Apr 23, 3:10 AM EDT

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -- Tucson activists are calling for high school and college students to boycott school and participate in a planned May 1 march for immigrant rights.

The march will coincide with similar work and shopping boycotts in Phoenix and throughout the country on May 1.

Tucson students are being asked to boycott school to protest an Arizona law passed by voters in November. Proposition 300 requires students to show proof of legal residency to receive in-state tuition at public colleges and universities.
