    California Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez has quit the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, accusing its chairman, fellow Democrat Joe Baca, of calling her a "whore.” Sanchez was insulted when she found out that Baca had made the disparaging remark about her to California Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez and other lawmakers last year, Rep. Sanchez told The Politico. Nunez "is a friend of mine,” an angry Sanchez said. "Did he think he wouldn’t tell me?” Sanchez also cited concerns regarding the legality of Baca’s election to the chairman post in November, and about his attitude toward female legislators. Earlier this month, four female lawmakers...

    WASHINGTON - Rep. Loretta Sanchez said Wednesday she is quitting the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, citing opposition to the chairmanship of fellow California Democratic Rep. Joe BacaIt was the latest development in a long-running dispute that has pitted Sanchez and other, mostly female, caucus members against Baca and his supporters. Sanchez released a statement alleging a "violation of election rules" when Baca was picked as chairman in November. "Today, I resign from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, chaired by Mr. Baca," her statement said. "I will continue to be a strong and vocal advocate for the Hispanic community." Baca disputed Sanchez's allegation....

    AP - Santa Maria Times ^ | November 8, 2006 | ERICA WERNER
    LOS ANGELES - GOP Rep. Richard Pombo, the powerful chairman of the House Resources Committee, plunged to stunning defeat at the hands of an almost unknown Democrat, Jerry McNerney, as Democrats wrested control of the House from the GOP. GOP Rep. John Doolittle beat down a strong challenge from Democrat Charlie Brown in Tuesday's midterm election, surviving a boisterous campaign that focused on the incumbent's ties to a congressional corruption investigation. San Francisco Democrat Nancy Pelosi was in line to be the first female House speaker ever as Democrats captured more than two dozen GOP-controlled seats around the country. McNerney,...

    Who’s Fueling The Racial Hatred? -- Tan Nguyen speech, Oct. 28, Garden Grove California I don’t know for sure who’s behind the hysteria…who’s fueling the racial hatred…who’s dividing the community…but Ms. Sanchez’s fingerprints are all over this. I don’t know if my opponent had a hand in urging the raid on my office. But, on October 20, the O.C. Register reported that Ms. Sanchez had PRIOR KNOWLEDGE of the Attorney General’s intention to seek arrests. I don’t know for sure whether that newspaper article was correct. However, I do know that Ms. Sanchez speaks Spanish. Ms. Sanchez must have known...

    A Republican congressional candidate whose campaign was linked to an intimidating letter sent to Hispanic voters said Tuesday he would not quit the race if he is charged with a crime.

    Six Congressional Hispanic Caucus members have cut their ties with the group's political fundraising arm because of concerns about donations it made to some of the caucus members' relatives, including the sons of Rep. Joe Baca. In a letter dated March 1, the six lawmakers including Southern California Democrats Linda Sanchez, Loretta Sanchez and Hilda Solis asked to be removed from any materials that imply they are connected with the fundraising committee, the Building Our Leadership Diversity PAC. "After careful consideration, we have decided to withdraw our involvement from BOLDPAC effective immediately," stated the letter to BOLDPAC's chairman, Baca, D-San...

    Incomes and population were underestimated by census, says a study that could make retailers and bankers take note. A study of central Santa Ana released Monday found that it is home to more people, with more money, than previously documented. It shows the neighborhoods surrounding downtown are home to 9.5 percent more people and 32 percent more household income than U.S. Census projections. Santa Ana city leaders, who requested the study, hope these findings will help it attract more retailers and banks to the area. The study was done by Social Compact, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit research group that gets...

    WASHINGTON – Rep. Loretta Sanchez says she may run for governor – in 2010. The Democratic political diva of Orange County has created "People for Loretta 2010," a political committee that allows her to raise money for a governor's race. "I think I need to go home and fix my state," the Santa Ana Democrat said in an interview on Friday. "I'm just keeping my options open. People know I love California. I come home every weekend." Despite taking this step, Sanchez isn't saying she's definitely going to run. "It's a ways off. I'm putting a marker down," she said....

    Last night, Minutemen supporters gathered privately at the Women's Civic Club of Garden Grove (in O.C.) to hear a discussion lead by James Gilchrist, the founder of the Minutemen Project. About 300 protestors, charging that the Minutemen are a racist group, gathered outside to protest the meeting. When the Minutemen supporters tried to leave the event, at least two of their cars were attacked by dozens of protestors. The protestors hit the vehicles with placards and other objects until one of the drivers gunned his car to get away from the crowd. He was arrested, though I'm not sure what...

    Jim Miller on Politics ^ | 12/29/04 | Jim Miller
    In 1995, Republican Congressman Bob Dornan, who had represented two different Southern California districts, starting in 1976, decided to run for president. He had great fun for about a year, but spent most of his campaign funds and neglected his district. This gave an opening to a Democratic financial analyst named Loretta Sanchez-Brixey, who had run for several minor offices without success. She dropped the Brixey (though not her husband) so as to appear more Hispanic and ran a clever campaign against Dornan, defeating him by the narrow margin of 984 votes. A visit by Bill Clinton and help from...

    Some comments from the largest powerhouse station on the west coast. Playing tapes, Loretta Sanchez was gushing over this plan stating she loves the plan. John and Ken asked some basic questions: How is an employer going to prove that he offered a job to an American citizen first? How is the federal government going to check every single employer? How could this ever work? Who is going to send them home? It's not *automatic* amnesty, but incremental amnesty. This is exactly what this is, slow motion amnesty. They both stated this is going to be a nightmare on top...

    There are battles won and lost day after day on Capitol Hill that are off the radar screens of most Americans. One such battle occurs this week. "The Sanchez Amendment" is an attempt by Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D., Calif.) to change current U.S. policy regarding abortions in U.S. military hospitals.The amendment, proposed as an addition to the Department authorization bill (HR 1588), is disingenuous on its face. It says that it would not require the Department of Defense to pay for abortions, but, in fact, it would. Who would perform the abortions? Military personnel? Where would they be? Military hospitals?...

    Group insists speakers at a Catholic school should back church's positions. By William Lobdell, Times Staff Writer Traditionalists have ignited a debate among Catholics over the selection of Congresswomen Loretta and Linda Sanchez — both of whom favor abortion rights — as Saturday's commencement speakers at a Catholic college in Los Angeles. The two have been targeted by the Virginia-based Cardinal Newman Society, which also this year has challenged Catholic college graduation speakers around the country — including a governor, a Supreme Court justice and a host of a political talk show — who hold views contradictory to church teachings....

    U.S. Reps Loretta and Linda Sanchez to Spread Anti-Life, Anti-Women Message at Commencement Ceremonies Washington, DC - "Mount St. Mary's College may think 'diversity' is a wonderful thing," said American Life League president Judie Brown. "But when it comes to defending the preborn, the Catholic Church demands a zero-tolerance embrace of a single truth. So I find it appalling that even a nominally Catholic school has chosen the pro-abortion Sanchez sisters to address its graduates." Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Calif.), and her sibling, freshman Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.), militant supporters of abortion on demand, are scheduled to speak at Mount St....
