Article in La Opinion (longer version here) detailing protest by various activist groups against DUI checkpoints that might also serve to arrest illegal immigrants. Seems like a typical piece – ICE sweeps bad, rights are being violated, etc. – but this part caught my eye:
“This is why we’re requesting an urgent meeting with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, to ask him to investigate why ICE is doing sweeps of indocumented people during Christmas, knowing that within a few months immigration reform could be finalized,” said Gutierrez. “Por eso estamos pidiendo una reunión, de carácter urgente, con el fiscal general de EE.UU., Eric Holder, para pedirle que investigue por qué es que ICE hace redadas de personas indocumentadas en Navidad, sabiendo que dentro de pocos meses se podría consumar una reforma migratoria”, reveló Gutiérrez.
Once Obama is done having his way with health care, could immigration reform really be next?
