In other Arizona news, four students were arrested Monday after holding a sit-in at the Tucson offices of Republican Senator John McCain. The protesters called on McCain to back the DREAM Act, which would grant permanent citizenship to undocumented workers’ children if they completed two years of college, trade school or military service. Three of the protesters are undocumented immigrants and now face deportation. It was the first time students have risked deportation to back immigration reform legislation.

Tania Unzueta: “We expect that within seventy-two hours Immigration and Customs Enforcement will come and detain them, the three who are undocumented. And after that, they go into removal proceedings. We have been preparing for this, and so we have legal counsel. And so, we’re going to fight each one of their cases legally. But at the same time as they’re going through those proceedings, the idea is that, on the outside, people who are feeling that anger and that frustration and the energy, right, which is why we were doing this action, is that they’re going to be mobilizing, too, and putting pressure on legislators in order to pass the DREAM Act.”
