Some immigration activists are calling today National No Human Being is Illegal Day of Actions. Here in NYC that means a 4 pm vigil of defiance in front of the offices of New York Senators Hilary Clinton & Chuck Schumer at 780 Third Ave & 48th Street in Manhattan. The vigil is being called to protest the recent U.S. Senate bill which calls for the buliding of an extended wall along the U.S./Mexico border as part of an immigration reform plan. According to the website of the organizers of the event, Immigrant Communities in Action, Coalicion de Comunidades Inmigrantes (Washington Heights), and American Friends Service Committee, they are demanding:

1. Full Legalization for all immigrants. No three tier legalization system that will divide our families and No guest-worker programs! 2. Faster Family reunification 3. Protect the rights of all Workers 4. No more deportations, detentions, border walls, and police making immigration arrests 5. Drivers licenses for immigrants.
