On Thursday, protesters delivered a petition to Governor Chris Sununu’s office they say is signed by more than 3,600 people. They’re asking for the governor to call for an end to Border Patrol checkpoints on Interstate 93.
About two dozen people showed up to rally against the stops. Organizing groups included NextGen New Hampshire, the United Valley Interfaith Project, and the Granite State Organizing Project. According to Customs and Border Protection, the checkpoints have lead to the arrest of 22 people without legal immigration status over the summer.
