Other speakers, including Reverend Hurmon Hamilton, President of the Boston Interfaith Organization, prayed for understanding and reconciliation, and spoke about his hopes that the amendment would be reconsidered in the House and Senate reconciliation process. Reverend Hamilton, one of the first Massachusetts leaders to meet with Scott Brown after his election to the U.S. Senate, also pointed out that the law would not have been passed if the U.S. Senate would deal with comprehensive immigration reform. Toward this end, he asked Senator Brown to break his silence and speak in support of a federal fix to the broken system.

After speeches from religious, union and community leaders, the crowd marched from the State House to Senator Brown's offices at the JFK Building in Government Center. As they marched down the sidewalk, passing cars beeped in support and marchers chanted with purpose and conviction.
