L.A. Workers Join Fierce Debate Over Immigration
Some Los Angeles workers have entered themselves into the debate over President Bush's guest worker program. A coalition of churches, labor unions and immigrant advocacy groups staged a noisy rally, featuring Korean drums and a Mexican trumpeter, urging legalization for undocumented immigrants and more visas for workers and relatives of Americans. Later that evening, immigration-control advocates held a vigil urging Congress to oppose any new guest-worker program.
