> Coalition member Roberto Reveles of "Unidos en Arizona" said that they will help host a "Summit Meeting" in Phoenix, Arizona to work out the details of the "international economic and labor boycott". The summit will take place on April 8th and 9th. The boycott will take place on May 1
> (Day of the International Solidarity of Workers) or May 5 (Cinco de Mayo). To be debated is whether a boycott beginning on May 1 and ending with a huge "fiesta" on May 5 can be sustained.

> Phoenix, Arizona saw a huge march and rally on March 24 in which over 15,000 participated. Roberto Reveles said,

> and have completed the first phase, now we have to prepare for the second. We will not rest until we see HR4437 defeated". Reveles added, "We are sure that the
> preparations we make at the summit will lead us to victory.
> We are united and only united will we be victorious".

> The two day summit will be attended by Mexican-American and other Latino groups from Nevada, Texas, Wisconsin,

> "We have to demonstrate to the nation, one more time, that its economic stability depends on us. I am sure that our sister nations of Latin America, who are also tired of the situation, will unite with us", Professor Navarro said. "That is why we will celebrate May 1, 'Day of the Worker', with labor strikes, no purchases and go out and march.
> Soon they will see the impact we will have!", he concluded.
