We are calling

A national day of multi-ethnic unity with youth,
labor, peace and
justice communities in solidarity with immigrant
workers and building
new immigrant rights & civil rights movement!

Wear White T-Shirt, organize actions to support
immigrant rights!

WE ARE ALL HUMANS! NO ONE IS ILLEGAL!

Points of Unity

On May Day 2007, National Immigrant Solidarity Network
is calling for a multi-ethnic, decentralized,
multi-topic and multi-tactic national day of
mobilization to support immigrant workers rights.

Our ten points of unity (based on our Jan 29, 2007
open letter to the Congress):

1) No to anti-immigrant legislation, and the
criminalization of the immigrant communities.

2) No to militarization of the border.

3) No to the immigrant detention and deportation.

4) No to the guest worker program.

5) No to employer sanction and "no match" letters.

6) Yes to a path to citizenship for undocumented
immigrants.

7) Yes to speedy family reunification.

8) Yes to civil rights and humane immigration law.

9) Yes to labor rights and living wages for all
workers.

10) Yes to the education and LGBT immigrant
legislation.


We acknowledges that there'll be multiple call to
actions from across the country to organize May Day
2007, and each coalition will present their sets of
demands. We should respects each other organizing and
encourage and supports everyone's issues:

1) Multi-ethnic, Decentralized and Multi-topic
mobilization: while everyone will pledge to support
immigrant workers rights at May Day 2007, local groups
can choose to includes any other topics for their
mobilizations: civil rights, anti-war, Katrina, labor
rights, health care...., etc.

2) Decentralized Multi-Tactic May Day organizing: We
will encourage everyone to organize their actions at
May Day, but will let local groups to decide what they
want to do at the day: march, boycott, strike, lunch
action, vigil, community event, conference or
congressional lobby day, etc.


Understanding the connections between our individual
conditions of life and the lives of people everywhere
in the word allows us to come together and organize
across all borders. WE NEED to link the connections
between: wars in Africa, south America, Asia, Iraq,
Palestine & Korea with sweatshops in Asia as well as
in Los Angeles, New York; international arm sales and
WTO, FTAA, NAFTA & CAFTA with AIDS, hunger, child
labors and child solider; multinational corporations
and economic exploitation with racism and poverty at
home--then we can win the struggle.

Let's all come together, on May Day 2007, to build a
new immigrant rights
and civil rights movements!
