Who Reports to Mexico City?
 Antonio Villaraigosa and Mexican president Zedillo applaud defeat of California voter-passed Proposition 187. |
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, LOS ANGELES TIMES, SUNDAY, AUGUST 8, 1999 "What am I missing here? Assembly Speaker Antonio Villaraigosa thanks Mexico's President Ernesto Zedillo for helping kill Proposition 187, which denied benefits to Mexicans who broke our laws to live in California illegally... We know who Zedillo works for. But who does Villaraigosa work for? ..." DOREEN HIRSCHFELD Los Angeles * * * "When I opened the paper Wednesday morning, I could not believe what I saw and read. The world must have turned upside down. How can an elected speaker of the California Assembly applaud the president of a foreign country for meddling in our politics and thwarting the will of the people of California? ....We need to ask him where his loyalty lies-with the Mexican people or the people of California?" ROGELIO DE LEON PENA Montebello |
Some claim "Aztlán" is the territory "stolen" from Mexico by the United States - it was not.
ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA: AZTLAN OR BUST
Villaraigossa was president of UCLA MEChA (Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán), a group dedicated to "the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán." He has never repudiated its goals.
Villaraigosa was a writer for Sin Fronteras (Without Borders), a vicious anti-American propaganda organ for Chicano separatists.

Villaraigosa was the only California politician who dared to join in the 1996 March on Washington that demanded amnesty for illegal aliens. He proudly stood on the stage surrounded by the Brown Berets, the militant foot soldiers of the Aztlan movement. The March was organized by Juan Jose Guiterrez of One Stop Immigration and led by a band from the Mexican Army. Gutierrez introduced keynote speaker Mexican lawyer Jose Jacques Medina, founder of Sin Fronteras, who proclaimed "This is my land this is my fight!" when demanding amnesty for illegal aliens.
Villaraigosa joined with Mexican President Zedillo and Gray Davis to kill Proposition 187 before it could reach the Supreme Court because they were afraid it was constitutional. Yet, in 1999, Villaraigosa said, "When the will of the people has been ruled unconstitutional, the will of the people is null and void."
"I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders." Mexican President Zedillo, July 27, 1997.
DRIVERS LICENSES FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS
"It's not enough to elect Latino leadership. If they're supporting legislation that denies drivers licenses to the undocumented they don't belong in office, friends, they don't belong here."

Reporter: "Is there any chance that the unions will shut down Los Angeles to gain this amnesty?"
Villaraigosa ally, Juan Jose Gutierrez, AFL/CIO: "Whatever it takes to pass this law will be done."

WHO PRODUCED THIS AD? WHY?
This ad was produced by AmericanPatrol.com, a part of Voice of Citizens Together. We have been running full-page ads against illegal immigration in Los Angeles newspapers for seven years. This is nothing new for us. We are not a part of the Hahn campaign and haven't even talked to them.
Why? We are experts. We know what is going on here and we have an obligation to tell the American People what we know. If you want to help tell this story, do it with financial support. It is not tax deductable. We promise to invest it in your future. Otherwise, like rape, prepare to be a victim.
The Rally for Amnesty at the Los Angeles Sports Arena on June 10, 2000, drew 30,000 people, including Antonio Villaraigosa, Day Higuchi, head of the United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA),Representatives Berman and Sanchez, and L.A. City Councilman Alex Padilla. If they get their way, up to 11 million illegal aliens could become citizens bringing in millions more immigrants by family reunification. L.A. teachers support the wholesale invasion of the United States for their own personal gain.
