RALEIGH NC -- Retired Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO) is visiting North Carolina and will speak on the issues of illegal immigration, Amnesty, and in-state tuition for illegal aliens on Tuesday April 14 from 6:30 to 8:30 PM at the UNC Chapel Hill Campus's Bingham Hall room 103.

"Congressman Tancredo has been one of the leading voices in America speaking out for secure borders and immigration enforcement," said William Gheen of ALIPAC who plans to attend the event. "It is significant he will speak on the issue of in-state tuition for illegals because the defeat of HB 1183 here in NC in 2005 set off a series of defeats for such legislation nationally."

William Gheen and Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) are inviting NC Lawmakers, press contacts, and concerned citizens to attend the Tancredo event which is being organized and sponsored by Youth for Western Civilization.

ALIPAC announced a national campaign to defeat in-state tuition for illegal immigrants bills in six states in March. The groups has since played a key roll in defeating this legislation in Colorado, Arkansas, and New Jersey. ALIPAC activists from across America are lobbying against a bill (HB 2939) in Oregon today.

"We want to show our support and our thanks to Tom Tancredo and Youth for Western Civilization for addressing these important issues that are of great interest to the American public," said William Gheen. "The pro immigration enforcement side is winning again and again in the states because approximately 80% of Americans favor enforcement over Amnesty."

Youth for Western Civilization apparently strikes some as a hate group according to Patrick Toomey of UNC. Young Patrick (possibly of Sponge Bob Squarepants fame) opined in the Daily Tar Heel:

TO THE EDITOR:

A new student group called Youth for Western Civilization recently helped bring former U.S. Treasurer Bay Buchanan to UNC to speak against the celebration of multiculturalism and current immigration practices.

The student group is one chapter of a national Youth for Western Civilization movement.

According to the group’s Web site, its goal is to “educate, organize and train activists on campuses across the nation to create a subculture that will promote the survival of Western Civilization and pride in Western heritage.â€
