Day 2008 is critically important. Will the optimism and hope expressed
around the Presidential elections translate into an end of immigrant
raids and deportations? Will it bring an end to the foreclosures of
homes, the lowering of gas and food prices, or an end to lay-offs?
</font>
<p><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">Regardless of the
elections, immigrants and their supporters throughout the country will
be marching once again on May Day, International Workers Day to say no
to all the attacks against workers here and around the world.
</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000" face="Arial" size="2">We call on the
progressive community, the anti-war movement, the women's & LGBT
movement, and especially the labor movement, to come out for May Day
2008. <br>
