SEIU dividing over "guest" workers vs. amnesty for all - 01/03/07

The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) was deeply involved in last year's illegal immigration marches. However, their president Andy Stern only goes as far as supporting the Senate amnesty schemes which include "guest" worker plots.

And, it includes this:

Immigration march organizers have foreign links - 09/01/06

Many of those who attended the recent immigration marches are foreign citizens who are here illegally. But, it doesn't stop there. For instance, one rally organizer is a former Mexican consul general and another is an official with a Mexican political party. Not surprisingly, the MSM has barely mentioned such links. The reader is strongly encouraged to contact media sources and suggest that instead of simply reporting what goes on at future marches they do some journalism and look into any links between organizers and foreign governments or institutions.

El Cucuy es Raza! (Bustamante, Cedillo, NCLR, voting) - 08/02/06

Popular Spanish-language radio host El Cucuy (real name: Renan Almendarez Coello) is on a 10 city bus tour trying to register members of his audience as voters. He kicked off the campaign in San Jose (California) on Monday, and joining him on his fun bus were Lt. Gov.

Karl Rove's pro-illegal immigration extended network - 07/15/06

Let's take a look at Karl Rove's new friends, the National Council of The Race ("La Raza") and who they're working with. The group Defend Colorado New tried to pass Proposition 55 (similar to Arizona's Prop. 200 or CA's Prop. 187), but in June they were thwarted by a possibily activist CO Supreme Court. On the other side is the deceptively-named Keep Colorado Safe. Their front people include former Denver mayor Federico Pena and former monkey-shiner Gary Hart. However, as discussed here, most of KCS's money is coming from... inside the Beltway. The most generous supporter is the Service...

Clinton, Rove to speak before National Council of La Raza (The Race) - 07/01/06

Is the Colorado Supreme Court pro-illegal immigration? - 06/13/06

That court recently blocked Coloradans from voting on an initiative that, aside from administrivia, says this: Except as mandated by federal law, the provision of non-emergency services by the state of Colorado, or any county, city, or other political subdivision thereof, is restricted to citizens of and aliens lawfully present in the United States of America. They took this off the ballot because they claim that it involves more than one subject, something that initiatives are forbidden from doing by Colorado's constitution. As discussed here and here, it seems to only deal with one...

Illegal Immigrants, Unite Here! (under the union banner) - 05/03/06

Byron York does something that the MSM fails to do: follow a link. At the big pro-illegal-immigration rally on the Mall in Washington on April 10, thousands of demonstrators held aloft dark blue signs that read, "We Are America." Below those words, in smaller letters, was the name "New American Opportunity Campaign," and below that was a web address, www.cirnow.org... Following that he comes to this: As it happens, that is the Washington headquart

Coalition vows to defeat harsh immigration bill [HR 4437] - 01/20/06

From this: A U.S. coalition of business, labor unions and religious groups launched a campaign on Thursday to defeat a bill backed by Republicans that would turn some 11 million illegal immigrants into felons. The coalition of 24 organizations, many of which rarely agree on politics or economics, denounced the bill passed by the House of Representatives last month and called on the Senate to enact legislation to include a guest worker program and a path for illegal aliens to gain legal status. ..."We are extremely disappointed with the proposal that passed the House last month," said...

Jessie Mangaliman sits, listens to loonies decry Minuteman Project - 09/16/05

Jessie Mangaliman of Knight Ridder offers us "Immigrants, leaders rally to decry Minutemen" which could have been written by the "immigrants" themselves. He basically just repeats their claims without any analysis.

SEIU leaves AFL-CIO; to form global union - 07/25/05

[etc. etc...] The signatories include: Lee Culpepper (last mentioned here; works for the National Restaurant Association and is Chairman of the National Immigration Forum) Jack Kemp Grover Norquist Rick Swartz: And then there's the National Immigration Forum, the umbrella organization for high-immigration political advocacy, which works closely with sympathetic Republicans.

McCain, Kennedy introduce Open Borders, Open Wallets bill - 05/12/05

Senators John McCain and Ted Kennedy have introduced the "Open Borders, Open Wallets" bill, informally known as the "2005 Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act". Do I really need to provide details, aren't the involvement of those two senators enough? Anyway, their cohorts are Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), Jeff Flake (R-AZ), and Jim Kolbe (R-AZ). This is a massive amnesty program that could lead to not only transforming the 10 to 20 million illegal aliens in the U.S.

"Bill: Illegal immigrants' children would not be citizens" - 03/18/05

In 66% in state favor anti-migrant issue the Arizona Republic reports strong support for the Protect Arizona Now initiative. PAN would attempt to reduce illegal immigration.

Left and Right, working together against everyone else - 09/01/04

The Protect Arizona Now initiative has survived its first legal challenge (by the SEIU), and will probably appear on Nov. 2's ballot.

Interlocking loonies - 08/19/04

Front Page Magazine reports on all the people and groups tied into George Soros' network of 527s in the article Soros' "Reform". The article lists so many names who are tied to Soros it's almost mind-numbing: Soros believes he is the apostle of something he calls "the open society" under which national sovereignty is subjugated to global "democracy;" a vision that includes the borderless spread of international gun control. ...former Clinton White House operative Harold Ickes' Media Fund - which scant press reports say will be launching attack ads against President Bush -- can't be...

It's not just another anti-union piece from Front Page Mag, they've got the dirt from SEIU's past.

[sob, sob] Aww... just let them all in! - 04/22/03

The S.F. Chronical has an editorial ("Naturalizing the dead") that attempts to piggyback their pro-illegal-immigration position onto the backs of the legal residents who fought and died in Iraq: SIX IMMIGRANT soldiers from California have been granted citizenship for their heroic contributions to the U.S. victory in Iraq. Too bad they were in body bags when they received the honor. The posthumous awards come as small reward to the families of the dead.
