MALDEF Only Partially Supports Boycott
From MALDEF's web site

MALDEF officials support the idea of a Dec. 12 economic stoppage by Latinos in California in order to demonstrate what the state’s economy would look like without Latinos, an activity organized by Latino groups, including Hermandad Mexicana and MAPA, to denounce the repeal of the driver’s license law SB60. However, as educational advocates who have fought hard to achieve equality of educational opportunity, for example, by lengthening the school calendar year for Latino students, they were unable to support the idea of keeping children from attending school.
