Prince William County's Human Rights Commission will hear presentations from groups opposed to a recently adopted resolution limiting services to illegal aliens, despite a warning from the Board of County Supervisors that the commission not critique its policies.
"This thing will have consequences for years to come," commission member Carlos Labiosa said yesterday. "We want to make sure it's done properly. The Board of County Supervisors wants to make sure it's done properly."
A four-member committee of the county's nine-member Human Rights Commission was scheduled to hold its sixth of 10 meetings last night and to hear from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, Unity in the Community and the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund, which has threatened to sue the county over the July resolution.
Help Save Manassas and the Federation for American Immigration Reform are the only groups invited to speak that support the resolution, which also would toughen local immigration enforcement.

“despite a warning from the Board of County Supervisors that the commission not critique its policies.”
Since when is it improper to criticize the government? I guess since the Dems regained control.
By the way, how is “Not One Damn Peso Week” going?
I hope they follow their new policy and ask each presenter to show proper US ID.
Lawsuits, panic over the possibility that the gravy train could be slowed down or stopped. It doesn’t seem to matter that American taxpayers are sick of funding the gravy train.
How did you get into that website? It is locked and requires an account, password, etc.....
I’m wondering if you were able to access the site.
It’s just a regular blog that didn’t ask me for registration or anything like that. I just clicked a link and got there. I think even the commenting section is open to anyone.
Anyway, Greg Letiecq of Help Save Manassas, and Nancy Lyall of Mexicanos Sin Fronteras just had a televised debate. The blog has the videos up for viewing.
If you’re still unable to access the page, I’ll try to find the videos on Youtube for you.
Nope. Cannot get in. Asks for a user name and password.
Maybe it’s an issue with your internet service or perhaps, you have your security settings to not accept session cookies? I, also, just clicked on the link and was in.
