About 500 marchers, led by 12 year old Zion Rojas carrying an American flag, walked three miles from Queen of Peace Parish to the National Cattle Congress grounds in Waterloo. They protested the handling of 389 illegal immigrants arrested during last Monday’s raid at Agriprocessors Inc in Postville. The event linked to ongoing immigrant enforcement debates and local processing concerns.

Archbishop Mass in Postville Highlights Immigration Raid Impact
The report covers Archbishop's Mass at Queen of Peace in Postville reacting to the raid's child detainee effects. Parishioners note fairness concerns as detainees were moved to county jails across the state. The piece references ICE actions and continues on page 8A.

The dying effort to resolve illegal immigration stalled after Congress and President Bush halted negotiations last June. The Postville Agriprocessors raid exposed 389 arrests and 306 criminal charges mainly for identity theft or Social Security fraud, with 290 Guatemalans and 93 Mexicans among the detainees. Strong opinions split lawmakers on enforcement versus reform.
