Undocumented Immigrants Stage Hunger Strike at Tacoma Facility 
---------------------------------------------------------------


 
A group of undocumented immigrants has reportedly launched a new hunger
strike at a detention facility in Washington state. The immigrants are
said to be fasting for 75 hours up until Saturday's march. The Northwest
Detention Center in Tacoma has seen a number of hunger strikes this year
in protest of poor conditions and federal inaction.
