TALLAHASSEE -- A state legislator whose district is home to thousands of Caribbean immigrants wants to ban the term "illegal alien" from the state's official documents. "I personally find the word 'alien' offensive when applied to individuals, especially to children," said Sen. Frederica Wilson, D-Miami. "An alien to me is someone from out of space."

Border Agent Prosecutor Under Fire Over Drug Informer Case Fred Lucas http://(CNSNews.com) - Critics of the federal prosecutor who brought the case against two U.S. Border Patrol agents for shooting a Mexican suspected drug smuggler are accusing him of hypocrisy. They point to his involvement in an earlier anti-narcotics operation in which a paid informer allegedly committed murder but was allowed to continue his undercover role. U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton has said that law enforcement officials must be held to the same legal standards as everyone else. At issue is a case that has been dubbed the House of Death, after a house in the Mexican border town of Juarez where the bodies of 13 ...

(02-27) 16:43 PST Santa Ana, Calif. (AP) -- A slow-burning leadership struggle within the Minuteman Project has flared into a full-blown court fight that threatens the 2-year-old anti-illegal immigration group's influence, if not its survival. Ousted Minuteman founder Jim Gilchrist sued the group's board of directors last week for control of the organization after he was fired and accused of embezzling $400,000 in donations. Board members, who also fired the group's executive director, also allege Gilchrist used $13,000 of the organization's money for his own legal fees. And they recently filed a complaint with the Internal Revenue Service, saying Gilchrist illegally ...

The Next Added 100 Million Part 22 Air Pollution Nationwide By Frosty Wooldridge 2-23-7 Recent estimates show more than 100 million Americans breathe polluted air in major cities across America. Air pollution increases lung cancer, asthma and injects tiny particles coated with chemicals into human beings' bodies. Pregnant women breathe poison air into their fetuses' delicate and developing tissue. Many other health consequences cascade from air pollution. Every day in America (on average): 40,000 people miss school or work due to asthma. 30,000 people have an asthma attack. 5,000 people visit the emergency room due to asthma. 1,000 people are admitted to the hospital due to ...

"I know you'll love it, after our conversation last week!" he said; and how right he turned out to be, even though I am the kind of person who loves to recommend books to others, while ...

Families in the United States lost 3,200 of their beloved children in the past five years to fight a bogus war in the Middle-East. We lost a similar number of our best and brightest in the 9/11 massacre. Both groups gave their lives as a direct result of our national penchant for imperialism. Last week, due to the war he started via outright fabrication – there were no WMDs -- President George W. Bush announced that he expects Americans to accept 7,000 Sunni Muslim Iraqi refugees into the United States. The Iraqis will be given homes, food stamps, medical care, schooling, cars and endless welfare -- paid by you, the American taxpayer. That's not all. Unconscionable Costs of War ...

Immigration Flood Unleashed by NAFTA's Disastrous Impact on the Mexican Economy

The recent ferment on immigration policy has been so narrow that it has excluded the real issue: family-sustaining wages for workers both north and south of the border. The role of the North American Free Trade Agreement and misnamed 'free trade' has been scarcely mentioned in the increasingly bitter debate over the fate of America's 11 to 12 million illegal aliens. NAFTA was sold to the American public as the magic formula that would improve the American economy at the same time it would raise up the impoverished Mexican economy. The time has come to look at the failures of this type of trade agreement before we engage in more and lower the economic prospects of all workers ...

February 14, 2007 WASHINGTON — The Bush administration plans to allow about 7,000 Iraqi refugees to settle in the United States over the next year, a huge expansion at a time of mounting international pressure to help those who have fled in the nearly four-year-old war. The United States has allowed only 463 Iraq refugees into the country since the war began, even though some 3.8 million have left. A senior State Department official described the expanded program on condition of anonymity ahead of a formal announcement later Wednesday. The administration also plans to pledge $18 million for a worldwide resettlement and relief program. The United Nations has asked for $60 million ...

Bank of America Corp., the second-biggest U.S. bank and the fouth-biggest in Monmouth and Ocean counties, has begun selling credit cards to customers who lack a U.S. Social Security number or credit history, opening the business to undocumented immigrants. The bank expanded the program to 51 branches in Los Angeles County last week after testing it at five branches there, spokeswoman Betsy Weinberger said. The plan is utilizing "judgmental lending'' practices employed by MBNA Corp., the credit-card issuer the bank bought in January 2005. MBNA's analysis of creditworthiness goes beyond traditional credit scores and leaves lending decisions up to specialists. In Monmouth ...

Weeks after accusing President Bush of "shameful" behavior over the imprisonment of two Border Patrol agents who shot an unarmed suspected drug smuggler along the U.S.-Mexico border, a federal lawmaker turned up the heat further Wednesday, suggesting the president should be impeached if either of the two men is murdered in prison. Speaking after the Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed that agent Ignacio Ramos was assaulted by inmates in his Mississippi prison over the weekend, California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher had a warning for the White House. "I tell you, Mr. President, if these men -- especially after this assault -- are murdered in prison, if one of them lose ...

The State Department said yesterday it will re-examine U.S. policy on the admission of Iraqi refugees, likely leading to a sharp increase in the number it admits each year. A task force set up by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice this week also will try to resettle in the United States some Iraqi employees of the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, whose lives are in danger because of their work for Americans. The steps follow sharp criticism from humanitarian organizations and members of Congress, who note that Middle Eastern countries are struggling with a flood of Iraqi refugees while the United States has admitted only 466 since the war began in 2003. "Clearly, there is a need that ...

NEW DELHI: An increase in the number of non-immigrant temporary skilled worker (H-1B) visas and employment-based immigration visas, or green cards, may be on the cards. The Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2007, currently being considered by the US Congress, has provisions that allow for such an increase. An amendment introduced in the Senate by Senators Edward Kennedy and Senator John Kerry echoes the provisions of the McCain/Kennedy Bill (S 2611) and the Skill Bill introduced in the 109th Congress. The Senate passed the amendment by voice vote and the ‘Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2007’ (S 2) was passed by a 94-3 vote. There seem to be huge increases to H-1B and employer-based green ...

STOCKTON - Four Stockton teenagers could face hate crime charges after their arrests Saturday night in connection with what they told police was a prank on two Brookside security guards. The four 16-year-old boys, whose names were not released, poured gasoline across sections of Spanish Bay Circle in Brookside, called two security guards to the area and then lit the fuel on fire, shouting racial slurs as columns of flames burned in front and behind the guards, police said. One of the guards is black and the other is Asian-American. The boys also threw a Molotov cocktail-type of device about 15 feet from where the guards stood. Though more remains to be investigated, police are treating ...

Environmentalists use the metaphor of the earth as a "spaceship" in trying to persuade countries, industries and people to stop wasting and polluting our natural resources. Since we all share life on this planet, they argue, no single person or institution has the right to destroy, waste, or use more than a fair share of its resources. But does everyone on earth have an equal right to an equal share of its resources? The spaceship metaphor can be dangerous when used by misguided idealists to justify suicidal policies for sharing our resources through uncontrolled immigration and foreign aid. In their enthusiastic but unrealistic generosity, they confuse the ethics of a spaceship ...
