No More War! ¡No más
guerra!
Peace Rally - March 17, 2007
On
March 17, the peace movement joined with labor and immigrants’
rights groups to mark the fourth anniversary of the Iraq
War. It was a historic moment. For the first time, we are
demanding an end to the war on immigrants, as well as the
war in Iraq. Voces de la Frontera sent a delegation and
made a powerful statement against the war.
Labor also turned out, with Local
212, SEIU, ATU, and others leading the contingent. Earlier
this year, the AFL-CIO declared: "It is time to bring
our military involvement in Iraq to an end. We call on Congress
to insist on a timetable for disengagement. If the president
refuses to act, Congress must use its powers under the Constitution."
