Join unions, community and immigrant rights groups for a mass march to Occupy I.C.E. As banks and corporations terrorize workers by taking their homes and jobs, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) terrorizes immigrants by splitting families apart. Everyone should be able to work and live with dignity. No one should live in fear. We are the 99%! An injury to one is an injury to all!
Stop deportations and raids now!
Full Rights for all immigrants!
Stop the war on working people!
All out! Please wear a black shirt (an ANSWER shirt if you have one)!

"Hundreds of demonstrators rallied Thursday at downtown L.A.'s Federal Building against immigration enforcement policies they say unfairly target working families. Occupy L.A. activists, labor organizers, clergy and others marched from La Placita Olvera plaza near Los Angeles Union Station.
When they arrived at the federal building, they chanted and shouted through bullhorns.
Organizer Ian Thompson says the federal fingerprint sharing program Secure Communities mistreats undocumented people and American citizens.
"To terrorize people and to force them to go back into complete poverty and to split their families apart when their U.S.-born family members and when their family members born in Mexico or whatever other country ... it's an unconscionable thing," said Thompson as protesters gathered around him. "So that has to end. People need to see this as a new civil rights movement."
The federal building where protesters rallied houses the L.A. headquarters of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal agency that operates Secure Communities. Demonstrators called today's rally "Occupy ICE."
Unions bused in hundreds of protesters for the immigration march as well
