Mass Campaign for Path to Citizenship; Arizona County Accused of Blown-up Charges for Undocumented Immigrants; Residents Oppose Expansion of Trash Station.

MASS CAMPAIGN FOR PATH TO CITIZENSHIP -  A wide coalition of labor, social, and religious organizations launched a mass campaign this week to pressure Washington for immigration reform that includes a path to citizenship for the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country. The national campaign begins at the same time as President Obama’s reform plan was leaked to the press. On Radio Bilingüe’s national talkshow Línea Abierta, Samuel Orozco spoke with Eliseo Medina, Secretary-Treasurer of the Service Employees International Union, about the Republicans’ reaction.

 

ARIZONA COUNTY ACCUSED OF BLOWN-UP CHARGES FOR UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS - One of the requirements to get residency under any immigration reform is sure to be a clean criminal record. But who is considered a criminal? A group of lawyers in Arizona says officials from Maricopa County charge immigrants with the harshest crimes possible for working with false documents, which could end up ruining their chances of legalization in the future. Valeria Fernández has more from Phoenix.

 

RESIDENTS OPPOSE EXPANSION OF TRASH STATION – A group of neighbors from East L.A. say they are tired of living with bad smells, congested traffic and excessive noise, caused by the garbage trucks that drive their streets every day. The residents oppose the expansion of a garbage transfer station in their neighborhood, operated by the company Republic Services. Company spokespersons say it follows all state regulations. Our correspondent in Los Angeles, Rubén Tapia, reports on the controversy.
