Sophomores Jennifer Dao, Jessica Lopez, Adella and Vanessa Mondragon gathered with nearly two thousand Northern Virginia high school students who left their schools and trekked many miles to Courthouse Plaza in Arlington to protest punitive immigration laws which could threaten immigrant families. Over 60 Masonites joined the march. Similar marches have taken place across the nation during the past three days. (Photo by Jennifer Saldana) 3/31/06
