The Great March for
Border Environmental Justice
On July 17, almost 150 San Diego and
Tijuana residents and members of Environmental Health Coalition held a
press conference and marched in protest to the offices of New Frontier
Trading Corp., the U.S.-owned parent company of Metales y Derivados owned
by San Diego businessman José Khan. Protestors sent a message to
Presidents Bush and Fox that NAFTA has failed and demanded that
Congress deny Bush fast-track negotiating authority for the Free Trade
Area of the Americas. They also demanded the immediate cleanup of Metales
y Derivados.
