(excerpt) We are a national grassroots organization dedicated to supporting the Salvadoran people’s struggle for self-determination, democracy and social and economic justice. Our U.S. based campaigns currently focus on ending U.S. economic and political support for widespread human rights violations, repression and political persecution against the democratic opposition in El Salvador. We join with poor and working people, immigrants and refugees in the struggle against neoliberalism and other unjust systems imposed by the United States government and its state, institutional and corporate allies. We focus our work on El Salvador because of the U.S. government’s continuing military, economic, and political intervention, the Salvadoran people’s tenacious and inspiring struggle to build social justice, and the potential of the Salvadoran diaspora and allies in the U.S. to transform the relationships between the two countries.
