These past couple of weeks, Wisconsinites — mostly the Latino/immigrant community — have been fighting proposed legislative laws AB 450 and SB 533.
AB 450 is an anti-immigration bill that would allow police and other officials to stop people and ask them for their legal status. If they failed to provide the required or correct documents, one will be charged as a criminal and a possible deportation could take place. This law will be very similar to those passed in Arizona. It has been passed through the assembly committee of Wisconsin.
Las Voces de La Frontera along with other organizations have organized a massive boycott/walk out on Thursday, Feb. 18. The event will start at 10 and take place in the Capitol.
