"In the near future, people will look upon California and Mexico as one magnificent region." --- Gray Davis
   California Gov. Gray Davis signs bill giving illegal aliens from Mexico preference over Americans from Kansas (or any other state).
   Gray Davis killed Proposition 187 by keeping it away from the Supreme Court. The people didn't like that. Now he is forcing them to pay for their college education.
   In 1994, Californians passed Prop. 187. It said, "We won't pay to educate illegals in our schools." Gray Davis killed it. Now he is saying, "Not only are you going to pay for their grade school education, you are going to pay for their college!"

Tighten Up The Borders
Our nation has endured a terrible tragedy. The human suffering is immense; the damage extensive. Suddenly, the most prosperous and most powerful country in the world is more vulnerable than we ever thought, -- One reason is the relatively free access foreign nationals have to the U.S. -- Less than two years ago, at an immigration subcommittee hearing I chaired, I publicly warned of the danger of our lax border security. Referring to the explosion in the World Trade Center's garage...		 N.Y. Times (Free Registration)

Re: Tuition Law Praised, Attacked
Hasn't Gov. Davis noticed that the United States is at war? The new reality means that government needs to reorganize its spending priorities away from the welfare state in order to protect our citizens.

Autumn cast a chilly grip over some 125 participants in the Dia de la Raza observance Friday evening at the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk of Pueblo. -- But American Indian drummers warmed the setting at the river bank - once the U.S.-Mexico border - with words of hope that a national holiday no longer will be dedicated to Christopher Columbus. -- The Dia de la Raza was organized by people who since 1992 have protested local Columbus Day events.

They delivered pizzas to investment bankers, ironed the shirts of Wall Street traders and cleared dirty dishes from the restaurant tables in Manhattan's financial district where multimillion deals were sealed. -- But many of the businesses where they toiled for low pay near the World Trade Center have been closed since Sept. 11, leaving these undocumented workers unemployed and without the same relief benefits available to others. [Advocacy groups such as the notorious Tepeyac Association, a NY non-profit with a mission of aiding and abetting illegal Mexicans -- a crime --, apparently feel that displaced illegal aliens should be treated the same as citizens.]

Albany, NY - In the days before the Sept. 11 attacks, New York State notified hundreds of National Guard members that they would not receive the college scholarships they had expected in return for enlisting. -- Some students say they believed when they enlisted that the aid was guaranteed - that, in fact, it was a promise that helped persuade them to enlist. The state's advertising for the program does not mention that people who enlist and qualify for the aid might not receive it....

Re: Tuition Law Praised, Attacked
Somehow I knew Davis was going to do it when I heard that Richard Riordan was outpolling him. All the stops were going to be pulled out to get reelected, and that means screw the Americans, lets make sure all the Mexicans vote for us - whether they are legal or not!

Should We Keep Them Out?
As the four doomed jets took off the morning of September 11th, members of the House of Representatives were preparing to take up House provision 245 (I), a measure which would allow non-legal residents to claim green cards at local INS offices, rather than requiring a trip abroad to consular offices. It was expected to pass handily, despite some deep-seated resistance from conservative groups. [There is a poll on this website.]
