Hispanic groups vow protests in 60 US cities for immigrant amnesty

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - US Hispanic groups demanded an amnesty for illegal immigrants and planned a nation-wide day of protests, as a much-touted compromise immigration bill stalled in the Senate.


The groups, which are organizing a wave of protests in 60 US cities Monday in a bid to halt plans to expel illegal immigrants, reacted after the compromise law that would have allowed millions of undocumented workers to normalize their status in the United States failed to pass in the Senate.

But Latino leaders said that even the compromise bill that deadlocked in the Senate was inadequate.

"We don't want half measures, we demand an amnesty, the immediate and unconditional legalization of the 12 million undocumented workers who work in this country," said Nativo Lopez, president of the influential Mexican American Political Association (MAPA).
