MARCH FOR RIGHTS: More than 3,000 people marched in the rain on Sunday, April 2, in Green Bay to support the rights of immigrants. Proposed federal legislation, H.R. 4437, sponsored by Wisconsin Congressman James Sensenbrenner, would, among other things, make aiding illegal immigrants a felony. The rally started outside St. John the Evangelist Church and ended at the Brown County Courthouse. Above: Dcn. Luis Sanchez of St. Willebrord Parish (second from left) joins the march.

By Br. Steve Herro, O.Praem.
More than 3,000 persons carrying flags from the United States, Mexico, Honduras and Nicaragua gathered April 2 at the Multicultural Center of Greater Green Bay to march for immigrant rights.
The marchers, led by an eight-foot banner proclaiming "March for Immigrants Rights" and the U.S. flag, walked the six blocks proclaiming "Si se puede" (yes, we can!). The route ended at the front steps of the Brown County Courthouse, where a Puerto Rican band played music and speakers addressed the need for immigration law reform. Full story ...
