Johnny Rivas and his family are being intimidated by anti-migrant protestors as a result of his work as the coordinator of the Solidarity Associations of Migrant Workers in the Northwest Region (Asociaciones Solidarias de Trabajadores Migrantes de la Línea Noroeste, ASOMILIN). Amnesty International fears that an escalation in intimidation may lead to attacks on Johnny Rivas, members of his family or migrant workers, as occurred in October 2007.
