Puerto Rican coalition against Iraq war
In response to the deaths of Puerto Rican
youths in the Iraq war, an alliance of 58 organizations has
joined together in a campaign demanding that all Puerto Rican
units be withdrawn from the frontlines. The AFL-CIO, which
represents some 100,000 government workers on the island of 3.8
million, the island's Council of Lawyers and several church
groups and universities have joined the coalition.
