the ample migratory Reformation


Details of the migratory reform "we are trying to exceed the number of demonstrators that went to the Megamarcha of Los Angeles", it said to Univision Online Rubén Quiroz, director Latin Action in Manhattan. "the communities we are prepared. The Mexican, the Irish, the Asian, the Caribbean one, Central American and the South American woman. All we are going to participate ", she said

Quiroz explained that the main objective of the pacific protest of Saturday is" to demand the Congress that approves migratory a reform ample "and also" to reject those plans that they include to criminalize estadía undocumented ".

"Until this moment we endorsed the reform project that gave the Judicial Committee", it emphasized the leader. "one is a proposal that offers the long term residence" what it has left the Senate, a proposal that "although offers the residence, still lacks many details that to discuss".

The Judicial Committee of the Senate of the Congress gave to Monday a project of migratory reform that includes a program of temporary workers and the possibility that the beneficiaries, at the end of a term of six years, decide on the residence

Of Broocklyn until Manhattan

the march, said the organizers, will begin in the Seat of Broocklyn, will cross the centennial bridge and it will go towards the Federal Building of Manhattan, where it is the Office of Citizenship and Services of Inmigracio'n (USCIS).

Eugene Cossio, director of the Latin American Forum of New York, I detail that "we supported an ample reform", and emphasized that "we want rights for the workers. It is not necessary to lower the guard ".

"Many die by industrial accidents and they do not have right. They are workers like the Americans, but they do not have retirement nor safe in case of a labor accident. We are unprotected ", added As far as the migratory plan of the Judicial Committee, Cossio said that" it is good, but him lack. For example, it mentions fines, but it does not say anything of benefits, of retirement. Some we have accumulated more than 20 years of work and we cannot retire because our retirements do not reach to live ". Cossio thinks that being a year electoral "both started off (republican and democratic) they mediatizaron the migratory subject. There is a recurrence to this type of subjects

The possibilities are three, analyzed. "That the reform is flooded and everything is stayed equal as now; that estadía of million undocumented people is limited; or that includes a program, for example, of temporary visas and soon they can reach the residence ".
"For anyone of the three ways there is much fabric that to cut", said Cossio. "What we are requesting in these marches is not only an ample reform, but that thoroughly discusses, that families do well, because is in game the future of million human beings, who have American children", Way pointed

Means million crossing the Brooklyn bridge are everything a record for this type of marches, and everything a challenge. To see what happens ". In when to the coming protests, Moor mentioned the March of the National Day of the Immigration anticipated for the 10 of April.
