Senator Hinojosa (D-TX) wants to fund anti-American group with tax $$$
Representative Ruben Hinojosa (D-TX) introduced a bill that would fund the National Council of La Raza (The Race)– a pro-illegal immigrant, pro Atzlan, pro terrorist group. The bill, named the Hope Fund Act of 2007 (H.R. 1999) would allot $5 million to La Raza in 2008, and $10 million each year thereafter.
La Raza actively supports legislation that would grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants currently residing within the United States. According to their website, La Raza supports an immigration bill that would include:
a path to citizenship for the current undocumented population
the creation of new legal channels for future immigrant workers
a reduction of family immigration backlogs
Congress must not finance anti-American groups such as La Raza or any advocate groups - especially not through U.S. tax dollars.

President Bush attacked opponents of an immigration deal Tuesday, suggesting they "don't want to do what's right for America."

"This bill is not an amnesty bill. If you want to scare the American people, what you say is, the bill is an amnesty bill. It's not an amnesty bill. That's empty political rhetoric, trying to frighten our fellow citizens. People in Congress need the courage to go back to their districts and explain exactly what this bill is all about, in order to put comprehensive immigration reform in place."

No matter how adamantly President Bush and his bipartisan enablers in the Congress and the media deny it, or how cleverly they try to spin it, there's no getting around the fact that their proposed "comprehensive immigration reform" bill, S.1348, euphoniously (but dishonestly) entitled "The Secure Borders, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Reform Act of 2007," is a huge amnesty bill.
In fact it is several amnesties wrapped together in one bill that will legalize millions (estimates range from 12 to 20 million — or more) of illegal aliens already here, PLUS bring in another 6 million more "chain migration" family members currently wait-listed. PLUS, the Kennedy-Bush-La Raza bill would annually admit 200,000 additional "temporary" guestworkers, who will have renewable 2-year Y-Visas.
But there is no exit monitoring/enforcement system in place to ensure that the “temporaryâ€
