Civil Rights at school. If your children's personal web site expresses

Hazelton Lawsuit
Filed
Hazelton Pennsylvania passed an Ordinance
in July 2006 that creates a broad range of problems and everyday challenges
for persons from other countries who do not speak English, or who cannot
prove citizenship or lawful residency.
A lawsuit was filed in the Federal District Court in the Middle District
of Pennsylvania on August 15, 2006. The complaint
explains the hardship this ordinance will have on Hazelton residents. Triquetra Law supports the efforts of the Hazelton residents,
the ACLU and the efforts of many others
fighting this unjust ordinance.
