Fox Should Be Spending His Remaining Time in Office Fixing Mexico, not Meddling in U.S. Immigration Policy, Says New Coalition


WASHINGTON, May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- You Don't Speak for Me!, a new coalition of American Hispanics opposed to an illegal alien amnesty, is condemning Mexican President Vicente Fox's overt effort to meddle in the internal affairs of the United States and exert influence over U.S. immigration policies. The Mexican president is currently on a tour of Western states, during which he is openly lobbying for passage of an illegal alien amnesty and guest worker program.

As he has often done during his more than five years in office, Fox is once again presuming to speak on behalf of American Hispanics and attempting to create the impression that there is widespread support for amnesty among U.S. citizens of Hispanic heritage. However, millions of American Hispanics are offended at the idea of any foreign leader meddling in the domestic affairs of the United States.

"Who enters and is allowed to live in the United States is a sovereign matter for the American people and their elected representatives to decide, without any interference from the president of Mexico or anybody else," stated retired Col. Albert Rodriguez, chairman of You Don't Speak for Me! (YDSFM). "Given the fact that millions of Mexicans have fled the country since he has been in office, it is not even entirely clear that President Fox speaks on behalf of Mexican citizens living illegally in the U.S., much less millions of American citizens who happen to share his ethnic heritage."

A recent poll by the Zogby organization indicates that the majority of Hispanic voters in the U.S. are opposed to amnesty for illegal aliens and want American immigration policies vigorously enforced. "American Hispanics are, first and foremost, Americans," said Rodriguez. "American Hispanics, like all other citizens, are concerned about the staggering costs associated with mass immigration, the impact on jobs, schools and other vital national institutions, and the threat that our porous borders pose to the security of the nation. American Hispanics do not appreciate having their country used as Mexico's dumping ground, or themselves used as pawns by the leader of a foreign government."

YDSFM called on President Fox to use his remaining six months in office to focus on curing the social and economic conditions in Mexico that drive many desperate citizens of that country to migrate illegally to the United States, rather than on lobbying the American people to grant amnesty to tens of millions of illegal aliens. "President Fox has had the past five and half years to address the serious problems that face his country, and to achieve real improvements for the citizens of Mexico. Instead his policy has been to point his unemployed and impoverished people in the direction of the United States. His idea of helping Mexico's downtrodden is to provide them with maps to trek across the desert.

"Now, he is brazenly demanding that the United State grant amnesty to the people he has encouraged to leave and is trying to enlist the support of American Hispanics," Rodriguez continued. "American Hispanics have a message for Mr. Fox: 'We are Americans and we will not be used for your political purposes.'"

Bush allows him to control us. Fox is calling the shots!

Lou Dobbs just said there is a provision in the bill just passed that requires the US to consult with Mexico before building the fence.

Lou concluded that if anyone wonders who is in charge of our immigration problem there should no longer be any doubt.

Yeah, I just heard that on the show. the whole thing is disgusting. It makes sick to my stomach!!

Nadys,

Great article. Thank you.

Our sovereignty is the most precious asset we have. Spector and others revealed their true intentions by passing that amndt. which makes mandatory consultation with Mexico on actions with regard to OUR -as in the US Citizens - Southern Border.
I heard Schwarzenegger talking the SPP line today too.
It's treasonous.
