 On Friday, May 2nd – the day after thousands of Bay Area residents marched for

immigrants’ rights – immigration agents arrested about 60 workers at taquerias across

San Francisco and the East Bay. Some are still imprisoned. Most of the employees had

no criminal records. They were arrested for the crime of working to support their

families.
