DALLAS -- Hundreds of people marched and rallied in the Houston sun and Dallas rain on Monday to push for immigration reform.

More than 700 people marched through downtown Houston to a rally in front of City Hall.

About 500 braved the rain in downtown Dallas to march from the Roman Catholic Cathedral de Guadalupe to a rally at City Hall.

Organizers and immigrants say they plan to continue to campaign for comprehensive immigration reform. That would include an opportunity for illegal immigrants to obtain legal residency.

In Houston, three counter-demonstrators protested the rally, waving American flags and carrying signs asking for tougher measures against illegal immigrants.
