We are
going to stand together and we are going to rise up. May 1 is an international day to recognize the contributions of
working people, and it is observed as Labor Day in much of the world. This year, it will be a day to honor working people of all types, but
there will be a special emphasis this year on immigrants working and
living in the United States. In 42 cities in 33 States, from Milwaukee to Seattle, to LA, to
Chicago, to Boston, cities and towns will hold activities, marches,
rallies, and workshops to lift up immigrant communities and demonstrate
the solidarity between Americans and immigrants. This is a campaign to galvanize broad support for immigrants, so this
is not going to just be a Latino thing or an immigrant thing. Churches,
mosques, and congregations are going to rise up. Unions, students,
teachers, and working men and women are going to rise up on May 1.
