A group of activists rallied in front of the Mexican consulate in downtown L.A. today to remind President Obama of his promise to tackle immigration reform.

Obama landed in Mexico today to meet with President Felipe Calderon. The talks are expected to focus mainly on drug violence on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Juan Jose Gutierrez is the coordinator of Latino Movement USA. He says he's glad President Obama is paying attention to the problem of gang violence, but that immigration reform should also be at the top of his agenda.
