ACTION NOW Call Cong/Sen: demand GAO report re tax dollars funding La Raza, illegal advocates

Sept 28, 2007 | ACTION PROJECT

[Liz]

News reports say the passage of Amnesty Two (the DREAM ACT) to extort US taxpayers to fund the educations of illegal immigrants.........is dead, for now.

Senate action on the DREAM Act, to grant legal status to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, faded Tuesday as the measure's chief Senate sponsor acknowledged he was having difficulty surmounting Republican opposition, news reports said.

Sen. Dick Durbin, Democrat-Ill, has been seeking to attach the DREAM Act to the US defense authorization bill pending in the Senate. But in an interview Tuesday, he said the DREAM Act isn't among the items on the table as Republican and Democratic leaders discuss ways to quickly wrap up debate on the defense bill. "We haven't given up completely, but the options on this bill are limited,'' Durbin said.

Immigrant-rights advocates were dismayed by the setback but vowed to find other means to pass the legislation, which they have sought since 2001. "There is no question that this issue doesn't stop here," said Cecilia Muñoz, senior vice president of the National Council of La Raza. "The longer we wait, the more talented young people we close the door of opportunity to."

Josh Bernstein, federal policy director for the National Immigration Law Center, predicted DREAM Act supporters eventually will prevail. "The politics is right and the commitment is there," Bernstein said. "We're not giving up."

Action now.

It is even worse than that, Liz. Let the "Foundations of Betrayal" pay for this. La Raza should not get federal money that is used, in part, to lobby the federal government, and to lobby Congress to pass legislation that favors members of its group. Nor should it be given federal money to lobby for legislation that works to the disadvantage of the general, law-abiding, tax-paying public. Nor should it get federal money so it can lobby Congress for even more federal money that it can use to .... lobby Congress.

LEVIN SURGE!!

You know what to do...~!

[Congressman Billybob]

The original name of La Raza was, in English, "The National Party of the United Race." They lie about the meaning of the word, "Raza," and say it means "community." It doesn't. It means "race."

When you dig into the literature, you find out that they are in favor of the "liberation" of the American Southwest, on a racial basis. They win, Mexico wins, we lose, the US loses.

And they want the US government to fund their efforts? Helloooo.

Taxpayers are funding the obliteration of our Nation by a bunch of lettuce pickers.
