Militant/Tim Mailhot

FAIRFAX, Virginia—Róger Calero, Socialist Workers Party presidential candidate, joined the rally outside the offices of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement here August 13 to protest the raid earlier that day at Dulles International Airport (see article on front page).

“Our campaign has pledged to join workers in their struggles,” Calero told the media there. “We are here to express our solidarity with those detained and call for their immediate release.” Calero spoke with many of the immigrant workers who turned out for the rally and told them his campaign calls for an end to all raids and deportations and for immediate legalization of all undocumented workers.
