Where are all the outspoken, attention-loving celebrities on the immigration issue?
So far, Danny Glover and Salma Hayek have been the only tinsel-town elites to speak out for immigration reform and to show support for the millions of undocumented immigrants in the United States.
"As a human being, I find this situation intolerable. As an immigrant, I find it offensive. And as an American citizen, I find it disheartening. The work that these immigrants do directly affects the health of the U.S. economy," says Hayek, a Mexican immigrant who adds that she has been speaking with immigration activists and Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa in an effort to "figure out what is the most effective way for me to participate in this movement," she adds. "My company, Ventanarosa, in solidarity with the immigrants, was closed this past Monday and will again be closed on May 1 in observance of the protests"
Any celebrities with the guts to stand up and speak AGAINST it?
