""This campaign is unprecedented in the pro-immigration community," said Cecilia Muñoz, senior vice president of the National Council of La Raza, in a statement. "Never before have we brought together under one banner such a formidable political coalition to fight for passage of comprehensive immigration reform. We now have the money, the people and the political will to punch this vital issue over the goal line in Congress and make America a better place to live and work."
The campaign says they have $4 million dollars on hand to spend on the congressional fight. The group will lead local and national groups seeking comprehensive immigration reform that has a chance of passing the House and Senate. Washington-based lobbyists will execute the strategy and field operation in 30 key states."
Are you writing to your Congressmen?

La Raza get government funds,one should check out the truth before making statements the think are true. They also get a lot of money from many American big businesses like Sears and many others. Check out their corporate sponsors on their link on the La Raza web site. La Raza has bullied and forced its way into the government coffers and has grown fat and rich doing so. They are composed of many race/heritage/country of origin,like thinkers. "For the race everything for the rest nothing."
They know that our government officials can be bought and pressured to go against the majority of American people that do not want amnesty to be given to illegal aliens..
A sister group "La Raza Unida " is a radical, Marxists, race hate based organization,that advocates the hostile take over of the American southwest .
great link haleiwa thank you for sharing.

Can we please get them labeled as a terrorist organization or link them to alquaida or something so we can have some new inmate laborers, 4 million dollars, and a lot less crime and racism? It astounds me how racist these illegals are, they hate our country, burn our flags, sell drugs and commit crimes and then use the few who actually work to use as an excuse because "they are taking the jobs we dont want"

It's a private non-profit organization, which means none. Check out their charter.
