Tagged: border, HIV, latin america, Mexico, RaidsPosted on: January 22nd, 2007“Pressure to allow in more workers has been mounting since Congress passed a law in September to fund hundreds of miles of new fences along the border with Mexico and a series of raids against illegal workers last month by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
On January 8, the League of United Latin American Citizens and the Hispanic Federation asked Democratic leaders to take action on immigration within 100 days, saying the raids “stirred further emotion and fear” in the Hispanic communities.”
