FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

UNITED AMERICAS BANK OBJECT OF PROTEST BY THE AMERICAN RESISTANCE FOUNDATION AND OTHER CONCERNED CITIZENS.

Feb 24, 2005

Atlanta, GA. - The American Resistance Foundation [T.A.R.] and concerned American citizens will rally in front of the United Americas Bank, 3789 Roswell Rd., Atlanta, at 10:00 AM Saturday, 26 February 2005 []. The rally is the first of an ongoing effort to draw public and media attention to the bank's practice of making mortgage loans and opening accounts for hundreds of thousands of people residing in the U.S. illegally.

According to bank officials, United Americas Bank [UAB] accepts as valid ID the unsecure and easily forged Mexican issued Matricula Consular ID, as well as the IRS issued Individual Tax Identification Number [ITIN] which is not intended for valid ID purposes and can obtained through the U.S. mail.

Georgia State Senator Sam Zamarripa is a founding partner and Director of UAB.

"Because of its ease of forgery, the Mexican Matricula Consular ID is not accepted in most banks in Mexico" observed D.A. King, founder of T.A.R. "Opening accounts for illegal aliens, handling funds received as payment for illegal labor, including possible methamphetamine sales - and making mortgage loans - amounts to money laundering by those who profit from this activity". "It is a violation of USC 8, section 1324 to encourage an illegal alien to remain in the United States" said King.

T.A.R. opposes illegal immigration and those who profiteer from that crime, as well as any amnesty proposal for illegal aliens. T.A.R staged six similar protest rallies in 2004, with an increased number planned for 2005.
