'Are we going Monday, guys?' he asked in Spanish as he handed out raindrop-stained fliers promoting a major demonstration in support of immigrant rights to be held on the Mall on Monday.

Walter Salazar, his sweat shirt hood fending off the rain, nodded.

"I have papers, you understand. But I'm going to support those who don't," Salazar, 24, said."
