Ten immigrant rights activists were arrested Tuesday morning after they chained themselves together and shut down traffic on the upper level of the George Washington Bridge during morning rush hour. The protest was organized by the Laundry Workers Center using the hashtag #SomosVisibles, or #WeAreVisible. Co-director of the Laundry Workers Center Mahoma López said, “We demand the right to vote and take part in the decisions in our communities.” The group is calling for a day of action on November 7—the day before the presidential elections. Meanwhile, another group of immigrant rights activists held a march outside an immigration office in downtown Manhattan to demand “deferred action” from deportation, including a five-year work visa, for all undocumented immigrants, regardless of age or parental status. The campaign is called Saving Our Souls, a reference to Martin Luther King’s motto for the civil rights movement. It included 37 people from Mexico, Honduras, Ghana, St. Vincent, Spain and other countries who submitted their applications for deferred action.
