“In a surprisingly active participation during weeks of protest against some proposed laws in Congress considered to be anti-immigrants, Latinos in North San Diego County are preparing for the national boycott day on May 1.

The boycott is organized by many activists nationwide, who mainly oppose immigration bill HR 4437 that if it is approved, it would declare all undocumented immigrants in the United States as felons. They are asking immigrant communities to abstain from going to work, sending their children to school and spending any money to show their importance in the nation’s economy.”
