Breaking: Tucson Protestors Stop Deportation Buses | #Not1More Deportation: Protestors assert that, with Operation Streamline, fundamental rights such as due process and the right to adequate representation are being destroyed in efforts to criminalize immigrants and stigmatize migration. The victims are targeted for unjust and inhumane treatment as they’re unnecessarily imprisoned.

The civil disobedience today reflects growing impatience with Congress and the President to provide immediate relief to immigrants targeted for deportation while working for a permanent solution.

“Anyone who witnesses Operation Streamline will come away convinced that it is both unconstitutional and immoral,” explains Roberto Cintli Rodriguez. “There is no justice in that courtroom. It violates every principle the US claims to ascribe to. When humanity is confronted with unjust laws, it is our responsibility to challenge them.”
