Social Forum activists to protest U.S.-Mexico border fence



CARACAS, Venezuela Activists at the World Social Forum plan a demonstration against U-S proposals to extend a wall along the Mexico border and toughen immigration laws.

They say the demonstration against the measures will start in southern Mexico and culminate in El Paso in May.

Activists at the forum in Venezuela accuse the governments of the United States and Mexico of "violating human rights" and not protecting migrants.

A House bill proposes building 700 miles of additional fences along the border while making illegal entry a felony. It would enlist military and local police to help stop undocumented migrants. The bill must still be considered by the U-S Senate.
