Gustavo Torres Quotations

We are immigrants, and we vote. We want to send the message very clearly that we are going to vote against these anti-immigrant legislators who are attacking our communities.

We never ask for documentation. Our mission is to help anyone in need of service, regardless of their immigration status. We are proud of that.

We are going to target them in a specific way.

We believe that the boycott and the strike is a legitimate tool that we need to utilize and we support it, but not right now because we believe right now the ball is in the hands of the Senate.

Communities of immigrant and non-immigrants around the country are organizing in ways we have never seen before to send Congress and the Bush administration a message that what was once a sleeping giant is now wide awake.

We are going to fight this legislation. The immigrant community is very upset about this.

Without question ... we are reviewing everything that they did with that time, and we need to learn from them and study exactly what they did because that is the model that we are using.

This is only a start! We are just starting the movement.

This is only the start. We are just starting this movement.

Then we are going to picket their houses, and the schools of their kids, and go to their work. If they are going to do this to us, we are going to respond in the same way, to let people know their neighbors are extremists, that they are anti-immigrant. They are going to hear from us.
