Over 1000 people marched through the streets of El Paso in support of immigration reform yesterday. The event surged into the heart of the city at San Jacinto Plaza downtown from its origination point on the campus of the University of Texas at El Paso.
Community members from El Paso and Southern New Mexico, elected officials and area organizations filled the streets of a city which is not well known for its activism. Hundreds of people urged insistently that not another year pass without repairing a system that is generally acknowledged to be "broken."
