Lynwood, December 10.- The leader of government of Mexico City, Marcelo Ebrard, inaugurated today the House of Mexico City in Lynwood, California, that will give service to the native immigrants of that locality.

With the inauguration of the House of Mexico City, the first one of five that the leader has promised to open abroad, Ebrard initiated a tow day visit to California accompanied by officials of his administration.

The center that will serve as a direct link between the government of the Mexican capital and the Mexican immigrants in this locality, will offer among others programs the delivery of birth certificates, copies of certificates and marriage licenses.
Also English classes will be given, computer classes, seminars, workshops and forums on Immigraton Reform.

During the event, Ebrard delivered a birth certificate of Mexico City to a newborn in Lynwood, whose parents are natives of the Mexican capital.

These birth certificates for children born in this locality will be requested in the House of Mexico City and they will be emitted in the Mexican capital and sent by mail. "That is an attribution of the government of Mexico City". These certificates will be accepted in Lynwood and in several cities. I believe that it is going to serve many", Ebrard said in a statement to Notimex.
He also announced a program to give driver's licenses to the native Mexican immigrants of Mexico City.

Those documents, will be permanent, and people will be able to acquire them for a cost of some 30 dollars and the only requirement is that that the applicant had a valid license in the Mexican capital.

Ebrad added that the first identifications for immigrants will be delivered to serve with an agreement between an American and a Mexican Bank that will deal with remittances for a lower cost.

Consulted on the implications on the decision in San Francisco to emit identifications for lacking the Undocumented next August, Ebrard indicated that he is interested to speak with the authorities of that city of California.

According to his work agenda, Ebrard had an interview with the mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio Villaraigosa, to sign the joining of the two cities.

Tomorrow he will have breakfast with the councilmen of Los Angeles and in the afternoon he will attend a dinner with local businessmen. (With information of Notimex/RSC)

Casa de la Ciudad de Mexico is located on 10905 Atlantic Blvd., in Lynwood CA.

During the event, Ebrard delivered a birth certificate of Mexico City to a newborn in Lynwood, whose parents are natives of the Mexican capital.

Can you say NOT under the jurisdiction of the United States of America?!?!?!?!

The City that I was born in. Boy this just makes me sooooo sick!

A foreign government can have an embassy and consulates in the U.S. --this is neither. What in the world is a "House of Mexico City" that offers birth certificates, marriage licenses, etc. but a foreign government office on US soil. THIS NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN AND NOW. If the Mexican people want those services, they can go to Mexico for them.

The purpose of the birth certificates is sinister--Mexico's dual nationality law is one ammendment away from dual citizenship--they are so confident they are issuing Mexican birth certificates in preparation for the baby to vote in both Mexican and US elections?

This is scaring me.

I thought NO ONE had the right to issue birth certificates in the US except the US states, under the jurisdiction of the US government?

Massive class action lawsuit time?? If we sit this one out, we will be royally screwed!

This is CHILLING!!! Anyone out there from Calif. What the heck can we do? There is no one on our side. The Governor,Senators and half the state legislature are all pro-illegal. I think its time to write this state off!!!

On March 20, 1998 Mexican legislation enabled dual nationality.. Mexican law enables Mexicans who became naturalized American citizens to retain their Mexican naturalization. Second generation American citizens of Mexican decent can go to the Mexican Embassy, apply and be granted Mexican naturalization without ever setting foot on Mexican soil and retain their U.S. citizenship.

DUAL NATIONALITY ONE AMENDMENT AWAY FROM DUAL CITIZENSHIP!!!!

MEXICAN DUAL NATIONALITY PROGRAM
PRESERVATION OF MEXICAN NATIONALITY
(Dual Citizenship)

NATIONALITY LAW EXTENDED INDEFINITELY

* It will strengthen links among Mexicans at home and abroad.

* It will allow Mexicans to keep their nationality after adopting another one from a foreign country.

* It will give individuals who may have lost their Mexican nationality, an opportunity to recover it.


The Nationality law which allows the preservation of Mexican nationality, regardless of the acquisition of another nationality or citizenship, is effective as of march 20th, 1998.

This law, which is based upon a constitutional reform approved unanimously by the Mexican Congress on December 1996, will allow Mexicans who live abroad and decide to adopt a foreign nationality or citizenship, to keep their Mexican nationality. It will also allow those individuals who were originally Mexicans and are now citizens of another country, to regain Mexican nationality.

1.- Background


The Mexican provisions regarding nationality, in effect over the last decades, stated that any Mexican who obtained another nationality would lose their Mexican nationality.

This has implied that Mexicans living abroad have had a face a dilemma regarding naturalization: on the one hand, if they became naturalized in their host countries in order to improve their migratory and legal status, they lost their Mexican nationality and all of their rights. On the other hand, if they did not obtain another nationality so as to retain the Mexican one, they were unable to fully exercise their rights in their host country.

In order to find a solution to this matter, on December 10, 1996, the Mexican Congress approved President Ernesto Zedillo's initiative regarding Articles 30, 32 and 37 of the Constitution which allows Mexicans to preserve their nationality, regardless of acquisition of another nationality or citizenship.

These reforms will also allow those Mexicans who are already citizens of another country to regain Mexican nationality.
2.- Who may benefit from this amendment


Mexicans living abroad, and willing to be naturalized as citizens of their host country, will be able to obtain that nationality while preserving the Mexican one.

Mexicans who have already acquired another nationality will be able to regain the Mexican one. Children of Mexicans at birth or naturalized will be able to acquire Mexican nationality.

For those Mexicans who have lost their nationality, there will be a period of five years, beginning the day of the entry into force of the amendment, in which they may recover it. The procedure of the followed is ready to be implemented as of March 20, 1998 and its simplicity and efficacy are ensured. (Extended indefinately)
3.- Main benefits


The constitutional reforms and the new law provide the necessary legal framework to the principle of "Non-forfeit of Mexican Nationality", a long awaited demand be Mexicans living abroad. These Mexicans communities have long wished to preserve the rights the Mexican Constitution grants to its nationals and to maintain cultural and family ties with Mexico. (Must be a Mexican citizen to have rights under the Mexican constitution.)

Mexicans living abroad will be free to travel and live in Mexico whenever they wish to do so, without having to comply with complicated formalities or apply for permits required for foreigners.

They will be able to buy land without any of the restrictions applied for foreigners. Likewise, none of the restrictions regarding inheritance and employment, concerning foreigners, can be applied.

(Above are Citizenship rights)

Mexicans who regain nationality will continue to pay taxes in the country where they reside and earn income.

Mexicans living abroad will not be required to serve in the Mexican armed forces. They will only be required to register at the age of 18, either in Mexico or at its consulates or embassies. (Hidden draft registration--tracking system?)
4.- Implications on Voting Rights


Unlike other countries, Mexican legislation establishes a distinction between nationality and citizenship. Nationality refers to how people feel they belong to their country. Nationality is based on one's place of birth and the origins on one's parents. Citizenship implies nationality, as well as, the exercising of political rights which are acquired upon reaching legal age and residence among other requisites. The constitutional reform only modifies provisions related to nationality.

This amendment is not related in any way with the right to vote. So far, no Mexican living abroad is able to vote in any election held in Mexican territory.

Voting is related with citizenship. Thus, the possibility of eventually voting abroad is being separately analyzed and, in any case, would be regulated by The Federal Code of Electoral Institutions and Procedures. Thus, the nationality constitutional amendment and law do not affect voting matters. (Voting plans already in place including which department in charge.)

DECLARATION OF MEXICAN NATIONALITY
The Mexican Government is granting the opportunity to people of Mexican decent who are naturalized citizens or citizen by birth of another country, to recover their Mexican Nationality.

To obtain the Declaration of Mexican Nationality, the interested party must meet the following:


REQUIREMENTS

Be at least 18 years of age and of sound mind.


Complete the application at the Mexican Consulate.


Present the following documents in original and two photocopies:


If the person was born in United States:


A Certified copy of the Birth Certificate, apostilled by the Secretary of State of the issuing authority.


Original or certified copies of the Mexican father or mother's birth certificate.

If the person was born in Mexico


Original or certified copy of the birth certificate.



Married women need to present the marriage certificate.


Document that proves the U.S. citizenship (i.e. passport or Certificate of Naturalization).


Official picture ID (i.e. Driver's license, passport, California ID, etc.)


Two-passport size photos.


This is a toll free process; the Mexican Consulate is the only autorizated institution to complete it. Upon receiving the Declaration of Mexican Nationality, a $14.00 fee will be assessed.


Dual citizenship divides loyalities, leaves allegiance in question and infuses American governmental policies, on all levels, with the voice of a foreign power. The United States cannot afford to grant mass amnesty and citizenship status to the hords of people maintaining naturalization--soon to be citizenship and voting rights--in a foreign country. The United States cannot grant the Mexican government such a large say and influence in United States policies and law.

It is the duty of a citizen not only to observe the law but to let it be known that he is opposed to its violation. (Calvin Coolidge)

I will forward this to Judicial Watch.

According to his work agenda, Ebrard had an interview with the mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio Villaraigosa, to sign the joining of the two cities.










The signing to join WHAT two cities? Are they talking the joining of LA and Mexico City here? The joining of LA and Lynwood? What?

And since when does Villaraigosa.....or anyone else.....have the authority to sign anything joining two cities whether they be here or in Mexico?

What in the Hell is going on here exactly?

It really sounds like Mexico, with the assistance of CA politicians, has more or less proclaimed that they are taking over and setting up a form of Mexican government with the US
