On May 1, 2006, 300,000 demonstrators marched through downtown Chicago as part of a nationwide protest of several restrictionist proposals to U.S. immigration policy. Within the federal government, a bill (H.R. 4437) sat before legislators, threatening to criminalize undocumented immigrants and anyone assisting them as felons. On May Day 2014, as they have every year since, demonstrators gathered once again to protest deportations.
