AMNESTY LITIGANTS PROTEST IN NEVADA
About 18,000 immigrants in the Las Vegas area are no longer able to work following a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision in August. The individuals had been given the right to work because of their status as plaintiffs in multiple amnesty related lawsuits. The Ninth Circuit's decision was that they were no longer entitled to employment authorization. The decision removed the protection from deportation that they had enjoyed as plaintiffs.
To protest the decision, about 500 immigrants joined a Thanksgiving dinner rally at which no one ate. Many of the protesters have U.S. citizen children and they complained that the court decision means that American children will suffer.
