The MexicoBlog of the Americas Program, a fiscally sponsored program of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), is written by Laura Carlsen. I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.

Immigration Pennsylvania: At Harrisburg rally, state senator criticizes bills about immigration
At Harrisburg rally, state senator criticizes bills about immigration - Berks Community Television: "The Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition brought together a group of faith, law enforcement and business leaders Wednesday, May 4, in Harrisburg to call on the legislature to reject anti-immigrant bills pending in the Legislature. ...
The anti-immigrant bills introduced this session and opposed by the Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition include measures that would add provisions forcing local police to act as immigration agents, deny public benefits to certain Pennsylvanians by requiring them to show government-issued ID, mandate the use of an E-Verify database, and deny children born to undocumented immigrants their constitutionally guaranteed citizenship."
