For 8 days accompanied 2018 refugee caravan to reach US
Gloria has been active in the struggle for immigrant rights. In November 2018, she accompanied the refugee caravan of 7,000 Hondurans, Salvadoran and Guatemalans for eight days in their arduous march through Mexico to reach the United States.
In the early 1990s, she was the initiator of the Farmworkers Emergency Relief campaign, following a disastrous freeze that left tens of thousands of Central Valley agricultural workers with no income.
The moderator asked which civil liberties each of the candidates would want to take a role in protecting. “I am for full rights of immigrants, the undocumented,” said

Full rights and equality for all undocumented immigrants
All undocumented immigrants and residents in the United States should have full rights and equality now. That means equal wages, benefits, union rights, voting rights, and access to free, quality education, housing and health care.
The government’s war on immigrants must end. Racist home and job raids must be stopped and concentration camp-style detention centers must be dismantled. The border wall must be dismantled.
