“While hundreds of cities and towns nationwide will have rallies today for immigrants rights, the Valley’s own activist groups are planning to remain largely quiet.

The Phoenix area, arguably the epicenter of the border debate, has no large marches planned to coincide with those scheduled in other major cities, including Tucson.

“A lot of that is because, at least in our way of looking at it, big marches don’t necessarily bring the results,” said Sal Reza, a Phoenix-area immigration activist and labor organizer.”*
