The FMLN Committee and the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAc) will be holding a press conference in front of the Mexican consulate to demand that the Mexican government stop the killing, kidnapping and torture against the migrants that cross Mexico. In 2010 more than 10,000 migrants suffered abuses like kidnapping, torture and other types of violence. We will be delivering a letter to the consulate in which we are demanding the Mexican government give humanitarian visas to all the immigrants that wants to cross their country.
