Fair at the U.S. Mexican
Border in Naco, Arizona on
Sunday, February 20 at 12
p.m. National speakers were
brought to discuss with the
public and media about the
urgent need of find non-violent
ways based on civil discourse
to solve national issues
such as border violence,
Arizona’s Legislation, policies
crisis and more.
In a press release, PDAnational
director Tim Carpenter
said, “PDA is returning to
our roots in Arizona to draw
attention to the policies that
further exacerbate the economic
crisis for average
Americans like ever-increasing
war spending, unaffordable
healthcare, and
deficit reduction instead of
economic expansion that
creates jobs in a green economy.”
Carpenter went on to say,
“Arizona’s harsh and immoral
treatment of undocumented
workers will not
solve our economic woes;
corporate power and the military-
industrial complex are
the real enemies of prosperity
for the middle-class and
the poor.”
