I'm not sure what I would suggest we actually do about this, but let's 
give it some thought.

>
> Folks,
> Some of you have endorsed the Day of Action for Immigrant Rights in 
> Washington on April 27th. A new development is that racists, 
> anti-immigrant groups, working under the FEDERATION FOR AMERICAN 
> REFORM (FAIR),  WEB PAGE www.fairus.org, are mobilizing their troups 
> to DC on the same days. Please see below from their web page. Let us 
> know what are your thoughts.  Thank you.

> America needs your help. Illegal aliens and their friends in Congress

> been telling them over the phone and in letters and faxes. This is 
> your chance to tell Congress directly — we're tired of America selling 
> out to cheap labor and corruption.
