6th National Low-Income Immigrant Rights Conference
|
Recent federal immigration decisions have had a direct affect on the workers we represent and last year’s immigration raids on six meatpacking plants in America’s heartland—a raid that swept up over 12,000 U.S. citizens, legal residents and other immigrants and stripped them of their constitutional rights—further underscores the need to reform our country’s immigration policy.
On December 6-8, 2007, the National Immigration Law Center will host its 6th National Low-Income Immigrant Rights Conference at the Doubletree Hotel Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia.
Entitled “Bridging Communities, Renewed Strength and Promise,” the conference will bring together community leaders, organizers, attorneys and advocates from around the country to share information and develop strategies around some of the core issues affecting low-income immigrants.
