By Sher Zieve – The continuing attempts of illegal immigrants’ organizers to influence and coerce US immigration policy and lawmakers continued on Friday. In what is being called “the great American boycott”, leftist activists have called upon Mexican citizens to cease buying any products from US companies located in Mexico on the traditional Communist 1 May “workers’ day”.

In the US, the boycott and strike is being called yet another "Day Without Immigrants". CNN reports that emails sent to recipients in Mexico read: "Remember, nothing gringo on May 1!" and “on May 1, people shouldn't buy anything from the interminable list of American businesses in Mexico".

As a show of support, the Mexican government’s National Coordinator for the National Board of State Offices on Attention for Migrants Lolita Parkinson said: "We are not going to be buying any products from the United States on May 1."

Acknowledging that Mexico plans to influence if not make US immigration policy, Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce in Piedras Negras Carlos Chavez y Pacho added: "We want to show the power we have as Mexicans!”

A growing group of US citizens, Citizens on Strike, has called for counter-actions to the illegals' boycotts and strikes: citizensonstrike.us.
