Latino workers have gathered in a Prince George's County, MD parking lot for many years to wait for work but soon they will have to find another place to congregate. Local businesses owners complain to the police daily about waiting laborers and say they are losing business, a complaint often repeated in suburbs around Washington DC as more Latinos arrive looking for work. Yesterday, a group of immigrants gathered at the Prince George's County parking lot to protest their ouster.
