HeadlineMay 25, 2010

Here in New York, nearly forty people were arrested Monday in a protest against Arizona’s recent anti-immigrant law requiring police officers to stop and interrogate anyone they suspect is an undocumented immigrant. Protesters including city councilors and union members linked arms and blocked traffic outside a federal building. Arrests were made at a similar rally outside the same building last week.
