CISPES expresses its most profound solidarity with the migrant caravans that have banded together for safety as they make their way through Central America and Mexico toward the United States. We call upon the governments of Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, and the United States to respect the integrity, dignity, and rights of all migrants and asylum seekers and to end the repressive, exploitative policies that force poor and working people to migrate in order to survive.

President Salvador Sánchez-Cerén has managed to create a sustainable economy, while at the same time lowering the rates of extreme poverty in just four years.

CISPES is devastated by the news that our dear compañero David Ayala Zamora passed away on October 17.

As a young union organizer in El Salvador in the late-1980s, David was captured and tortured by the US-funded Salvadoran military. Later in his life, he spoke often about how the international pressure that CISPES and other solidarity activists in the United States mobilized helped secure his release.
