"Defenders of illegal immigration are formulating a new approach in their effort to abet lawbreakers.
The Los Angeles Times reports that loose-knit groups of "immigration organizations" are preparing to try to disrupt future Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids that target illegals.

The plan is to try to tip off illegal immigrants that an enforcement action may be on the way.
"Is ICE going to tell us when they're coming? What they're doing? No," Socorro Leos, a community organizer for the Mississippi Immigrant Rights Alliance, told the Times.
The groups are organizing students, union members and other workers to keep an eye open for anything that might indicate an imminent raid, such as "Customs Enforcement agents checking into hotels or renting local facilities, the sudden appearance of out-of-town cars, or a sudden surge of action at the local courthouse."
