Dear Mr. James:

Thank you for your Internet request on Allstate.com. Your concerns are
important to us and we appreciate the opportunity to address them.

Thank you for inquiring about Allstate's support for NCLR. Allstate
and
The Allstate Foundation are long-time supporters of National Council of
La Raza and its efforts to promote equal opportunity and access to
mainstream services for the entire Hispanic community. As part of our
unwavering commitment to encouraging tolerance, inclusion and
diversity,
Allstate directs its support of NCLR toward financial literacy
initiatives and youth programming. Our goal is to teach tolerance to
youth, end hate crimes and alleviate discrimination as we celebrate the
differences among the cultures that make up our country.

I wish to apologize to you for any inconvenience that this matter has
caused. If there is anything that I can do in the future please
contact
me at lsc2d@allstate.com or at 1-800-570-6206 ext 4628.


Thank you,

I e-mailed demanding an explanation while copying fox news (i couldn't find Lou Dobb's e-mail)

I guess Allstate's "good hands" extend to illegals. This company should be ashamed of itself for pandering to such a fringe group as LaRaza.

I just spoke to Laura and she said they are getting lots of calls.

Please post this information on other websites and forums - if we can keep this going I think we can get them to do something. If you have a policy with them make sure and let them know that.

Another good point to make to them is that La Raza was the pushers of the Amnesty bill that the Public overwhelmly hated - ask Allstate if they really want to be involved in such a controversially issue and be the backers of the people that majority of the public totally disagree with? They should be neural and not be taking sides in this controversial issue.

Thanks for the link. Let's also complain to the CEO/Prez of Allstate rather than some low level "consumer advocate." As you know, S!*T flows best downhill, not uphill.

Thomas J. Wilson - Chief Executive Officer and President

He's a new CEO, here's a link to his compensation:

Also, here's an Allstate press release about the last CEO and "diversity."

http://media.allstate.com/categories/39 ... ceives-top

Allstate says they support La Raza in the name of Diversity - but La Raza believes in Separatism not Diversity (La Raza is only for Hispanics, they have their own schools, clubs, award dinners, etc) - so please ask Allstate how that is Diversity?

I just received a cold call from a local Allstate agent wanting to know if I would like a comparative insurance quote. I told her that I was happy with USAA (I'm not, but that's another story), but even if I weren't I would not buy from Allstate because they contributed to a racist Latino group called La Raza. Of course she had never heard about it, so I described it in more detail, including the part of being anti-gringo. She was not happy to hear that and asked where she could learn more so I gave her this website and how to locate the Allstate thread. I told her that ALIPAC was instrumental in shooting down the amnesty bill and that we were polite, not raging thugs. Se was even more dismayed when I told her of all the American industries who were supporting LR, including the US of A. I told her about people who were canceling Allstate policies and she said she did not blame them.

It has not been a big issue in Medford, Oregon, where I live. Even when our congressman, who is a good man, came for a town hall meeting, Iraq seemed to be what was on people's minds. I email him a lot.

The word must spread.

If she calls you back tell her to call the person below and to complain she's losing potiential clients over this. My agent has already called her because he's losing my business and we've been with him 9 years.

Thanks for the info, Melissa--will do.

DeMartino's reply was certainly a snippy piece of arrogance. His bottom line is going to be affected and he hasn't a clue about the power of angry Americans. It might become Nostate.

Has anyone sent this info and DM's reply to Lou?
