Thousands march against immigration crackdown in Portland, Oregon
Tagged: protest“PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) ”” A boisterous but peaceful march of about 4,000 demonstrators opposed to pending stricter immigration legislation drummed and chanted through downtown Portland on Saturday, bringing together Hispanic organizations, labor unions, church and social groups.
They were opposed to pending legislation in Congress that would bring stiff increases in migration enforcement. They also protested the position of Ron Saxton, who is seeking the GOP gubernatorial nomination in May’s primary.
“Saxton, we pick your food,” read some signs.”
