Mark your calendar! Please come to attend our 2007  national grassroots 
immigrant strategy conference at Richmond,  VA!

Our conference will be based on our May Day 2007 call to  action:

1) No to  anti-immigrant legislation, and the criminalization of the 
immigrant  communities.
2) No to militarization of the border.
3) No to the  immigrant detention and deportation.
4) No to the guest worker  program.
5) No to employer sanction and "no match" letters.
6) Yes  to a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. 
7) Yes to speedy  family reunification.
8) Yes to civil rights and humane immigration  law.
9) Yes to labor rights and living wages for all workers.
10)  Yes to the education and LGBT immigrant legislation.

We  envision this as a grassroots activist conference of broad-based,  
multiethnic organizers from African American, Native American, African  immigrant, 
Asian American, Latino/Latina, Arab-Muslim-North African,  progressive labor, 
interfaith, LGBT, student, anti-war/peace and global  justice groups from 
across the country. To meet face-to-face and discuss  how to build a new national, 
broad-based, immigrant rights/civil rights  movement, and to set a 6-9 month 
national strategy framework for the  2007-2008. 
During our 3-days conference, we'll have over 30  workshops and plenary, the 
topics include: Congressional Legislation,  Militarization of the Border 
Immigrant Detention and Deportation, Labor  Organizing, Student/Youth Organizing, 
Education & Outreach,  Multi-Ethnic Organizing, Community Support Network and 
Diverse Tactics to  Achieve Goals. 
Please come to join the movement! See you July in  Richmond, VA!
