FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:MARCH 10, 2010

La Raza Justice Movement Responds To Rumors of Raids At Wal-Mart

Description: LRJM continues to follow up on leads regarding immigration enforcement activity at or around Houston-area Wal-Marts

Rumors, sent via text messages, have suggested that within the past few days immigration enforcement activity has taken place, ranging from worker raids to customer harassment by ICE officials, at Houston-area Wal-Marts.  Most seem to be largely false, but LRJM continues to seek verification.

Members and supporters of La Raza Justice Movement continue seeking witness accounts of any immigration enforcement activity.

Wal-Mart has denied coordinating or supporting information raids.  However, questions regarding whether or not I-9 verification activity has taken place, referred to as desk raids by many, were not immediately answered by Wal-Mart’s corporate office.

La Raza Justice Movement continues to seek witness accounts and will follow up with Wal-Mart’s corporate offices regarding desk raid activity.  Hector Chavana Jr of LRJM  is meeting the Little York Small Business Group today, where discussions about this rumors will take place, among other normal business.

As of the release, LRJM has neither discounted nor verified the rumors and will continue with its inquiries.  The panic and fear spread by these rumors speak to the national call for a moratorium on all immigration enforcement activities, a call which LRJM supports.  Such a call is not unheard of, as a certain form of enforcement moratorium was enacted in the Reagan administration.

WHAT:                    Little York Small Business Group Meeting, where rumors will be one topic of conversation
