Nearly 40 Arrested in New York Immigration Protest
--------------------------------------------------



Here in New York, nearly forty people were arrested Monday in a protest
against Arizona’s recent anti-immigrant law requiring police officers to
stop and interrogate anyone they suspect is an undocumented immigrant.
Protesters including city councilors and union members linked arms and
blocked traffic outside a federal building. Arrests were made at a
similar rally outside the same building last week.
