As Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid vowed Tuesday to fight GOP attempts to block any of President Barack Obama’s nominations, a national Hispanic coalition put senators on notice that the group considers confirmation of Katherine Archuleta as federal personnel chief critical. ....
Hector Sanchez, chair of the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda, said the bipartisan coalition of 36 major Latinos groups, sent a letter to senators saying they will closely watch the process for Archuleta’s nomination and may use it in a scorecard on members’ performances on Latino issues. ....
“We endorsed Katherine Archuleta a long time ago in the coalition. It’s very critical for us and it’s important that Congress understand an attack on Archuleta is going to be very serious,” Sanchez said.
The process she’s being put through “is sending a negative message,” he said. ....
Sanchez said Archuleta’s appointment comes at a time when Latinos represent just eight percent of the federal workforce and are 17 percent of the population. Latinos are the most underrepresented group in the federal workforce, he said.
“It is important that Republicans understand the impact their actions can have because they cannot play political games on these kinds of issues that are so important,” Sanchez said.

They are Racists.
And make no bones about it.
RIP U.S.A.
***Latinos are the most underrepresented group in the federal workforce, he said.***
Make no mistake. The most underrepresented group are red-blooded Americans anywhere in gov’t, business, politics, education, you name it.
There is where the crisis lies.
Gang politics from a society of gangs.
Yeah, but I’m still tryin’ to figure out the whole race thing. LOL! Didn’t they come from Spain? Which is in europe last time I checked. I guess since my ancestors are Dutch I can call racism on anybody that says anything derogatory about Dutch people. Right? Uh, no.
So much for the education of the undocumented child.
It sounds like they’ve got Dingy Harry the Weasel scared to death.
I bet you they’d have no problem with the filibuster of a latina nominee if she happened to be a conservative Christian nominated by a GOP president.
The Mexican tribe has put the Whitey tribe on notice. Do what they say and nobody will get hurt.
Hold yourself apart, be dealt with apart.
They define themselves by race, they are racist.

They are La Raza.
Do these idiots not know that the word “latino” was developed by Democrats to create a constituency?
Bring it.
Extortion in politics. Wow.
Obama’s ‘brown’ shirt army uhhh coalition
To the victor, the spoils.
In for the win. USA. F the Dems F the Repubs.
re: “ Latinos are the most underrepresented group in the federal workforce, he said.”
Typical stupidity. Not one word why the person they support is QUALIFIED for this position - just that she’s “latina”. Lord I hate this PC crap.
She’s probably a communist is my guess.
Fast forward to the most recent addition to the US Supreme Court........leftist Elena Kagan never served as a judge, but was just fine for the Demonrats........Latino or no, it's a one way street called Demonrat Avenue........

Only the gringos are stupid enough to believe that race doesn’t matter.
