Since September of 2010, organizations that have united to fight for the rights of immigrants and efforts to counter anti-immigrant sentiments and actions that negatively affect us; we met for the first time with the interest of building a stronger and broader movement representing all sectors. In August 2011, there was a second meeting to continue to build a continuing effort to seek better living and working conditions for immigrants and their families. We continue with this approach to provide opportunities for building this movement stronger and wider. Once again, we extend the invitation to other organized movements, individuals directly affected and those who are sympathetic to immigrants to unite our ideas and work together for the good of our community.
