Protest Jimmy John’s: “Arizona’s Favorite Sandwich”
Monday June 14, 5:30PM @ Jimmy John’s Minneapolis 600 Hennepin Ave. South Block E, on 6th St.
Jimmy John’s has consistently funded the campaigns of anti-immigrant demagogues like Joe Arpaio and John McCain who are outspoken supporters of SB1070. For this reason we are giving Jimmy John’s the title of: “Arizona’s Favorite Sandwich”.
We will demand that they publicly denounce SB1070 in writing–or face the boycott!

Protest Anti-Immigrant Policians and Laws: Protest Tom Emmer!
Wednesday, June 16th Protest 6:00-7:30pm @ Historic Heights Bed & Breakfast 3980 5th St NE, Columbia Heights. (Carpool leaves Walker Church (31st and 16th ave S) at 5:30pm)
Tom Emmer, the Republican candidate for governor who called the hateful Arizona law SB1070 “A wonderful first step” will be the keynote speaker at a GOP fundraiser. We will make sure he knows that Minnesota is not Arizona and that we will not stand for those kind of racist laws in our communities!
