The doors of Hector Castillo’s bakery are usually open 360 days a year, but anybody looking for his Mexican pastries or cookies will be out of luck Monday.

Castillo planned to close his doors in sympathy with an economic boycott by thousands of illegal immigrants and their allies across the country, a show of force to illustrate how much immigrants matter.
