    Hispanic Caucus

    I've seen mention of the black caucus, but not this one. This lets you in no doubt as to why they are working together.....

    The Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) is comprised of 21 Democratic Members of the United States Congress of Hispanic descent. The Caucus is dedicated to voicing and advancing, through the legislative process, issues affecting Hispanics in the United States and Puerto Rico. The CHC was founded in December 1976 as a legislative service organization of the United States House of Representatives. Today, the CHC is organized as a Congressional Member organization, governed under the Rules of the U.S. House of Representatives.

    The Congressional Hispanic Caucus aims to address national and international issues and the impact these policies have on the Hispanic community. The function of the Caucus is to serve as a forum for the Hispanic Members of Congress to coalesce around a collective legislative agenda. In addition to covering legislative action, the CHC also monitors Executive and Judicial issues.

    CHC legislative priorities cover all areas that have a direct impact on the Hispanic community. In order to best address these diverse issues, members work in a smaller task force that draws on their expertise and develops priority legislation within each area. The Caucus is composed entirely of Democrats. The Cuban-American Republican delegation from Florida (Senator Mel Martinez, and Reps. Lincoln Diaz-Balart, Mario Diaz-Balart, and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen) are not members; these congressional members are all part of the Congressional Hispanic Conference. Senator Bob Menendez, a Cuban-American Democrat from New Jersey, is a member. Senator Ken Salazar (D-CO) is not a member of either of these organizations.

    A "white caucus" would be denounced as "racist." As for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, that is "celebrating diversity."

    http://www.cbcfinc.org/About/mission.html

    With a focus on Leadership Education, Public Health, and Economic Development, [CWCF] is the premier organization that creates, identifies, analyzes and disseminates policy-oriented information critical to advancing [White Americans] and people of [European ancestry] towards equity in economics, health and education.
    http://www.chci.org/about/about.html

    About [CWCI]

    The [Congressional White Caucus Institute (CWCI)] is one of the leading [White] non-profit and non-partisan 501(c) (3) organizations in the country. CHCI was established in 1978 by Congressman [David Duke], Congressman [Don Black] and Congressman [William Pierce] to help increase opportunities for [Whites] to participate in and contribute to the American policy making process.

    Since then, [CWCI's] mission has been to develop the next generation of [White] leaders. Our vision is an educated and civically active [White] community participating at the local, state and federal policy decision-making levels.

    As the premier national [White] educational organization, [CWCI] seeks to accomplish its mission by offering educational and leadership development programs, services and activities that promote the growth of participants as effective professionals and strong leaders. In the spirit of building coalitions, [CWCI] seeks to establish partnerships with other [White] and [non-White] organizations.

    Today, [CWCI] has developed into an organization whose programs have successfully developed effective [White]leaders, both in public and private sectors, through [CWCI's] Alumni Association. Through its programs, [CWCI] has brought to fruition the original goal of its founding members.

    [CWCI] firmly believes it is vitally important for the [White's] to be provided with ongoing tools necessary to compete in today’s rapidly changing business environment – more than ever since the [White] community is the fastest growing and youngest segment of the U.S. population.

    [CWCI] hopes to continue challenging corporate America to join in the Institute's efforts in providing young [Whites] the opportunity to explore new areas of educational development, both at the private and public sectors.
    http://www.ajc.org/site/c.ijITI2PHKoG/b ... out_Us.htm

    [EURO] has worked since 1906 to safeguard and strengthen [Whites] and [European] life worldwide by promoting democratic and pluralistic societies that respect the dignity of all peoples.

    Very interesting why is we never hear of it?

    Infact a Senator not to long ago said "I think it is time for us to have a white caucus" that was when the Hispanic caucus was making a fuss about something to do with immigration.

    As far as the black caucus goes the black people are not getting much representation out of them either.

    The elites of this country, especially those in the media, loathe the white majority for a number of reasons.

    I can't recall the gentleman's names, but there was a suggestion that they do away with ALL of the different caucus groups. Lots of PR opportunities, but nothing these groups do amount to anything!!
