State English rule is vetoed Napolitano kills bid for official language Elvia Díaz The Arizona Republic May. 10, 2005 12:00 AM The movement to make English Arizona's official language came to a screeching halt Monday. Gov. Janet Napolitano vetoed Senate Bill 1167, which would have required state and local government workers to carry out their official duties in English. Also Monday, lawmakers said they almost certainly will not pursue a resolution to put an official-English referendum on the November 2006 ballot at least this year. The resolution has been stalled in the Senate for more than a month. Two other key immigration measures did appear headed for passage by the ...

Undocumented, under siege Tuesday, May 10, 2005 MICHELLE COLE SALEM -- The Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the nation's renewed interest in border security have caused the debate over immigration to spill out of Congress and into Oregon's Capitol. Although immigration policy is largely a federal responsibility, the Legislature is considering several bills intended to crack down on people who are in the country illegally. They include making it tougher for immigrants -- some say even legal ones -- to get a driver's license, register to vote or secure a pay raise. Oregon lawmakers are "much more open" to talking about immigration issues than they used to be, says Jim Ludwick of ...

U.S. to Pay Hospitals for Illegals' Care By KEVIN FREKING, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - Health care providers can charge the government for emergency care provided to illegal aliens beginning Tuesday. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services issued final guidance Monday that sets up a system for reimbursement. Lawmakers set aside $1 billion over four years for the program, created by Medicare legislation passed in 2003. For hospitals in border states, the additional money can mean the difference between running a profitable business or an unprofitable one, said Don May, vice president of policy for the American Hospital Association.

The great on-going debate at VDARE.COM is: "Which of the two—legal or illegal immigration—does more to destroy the fabric of America?" Legal immigration often takes a back seat to illegal immigration in terms of how much time we spend writing and talking about it. But on any given day—like today— I’ll tell you that legal immigration is the bigger of the two threats. The immigration reform movement has made enormous strides in raising America’s awareness about the destructive consequences of illegal immigration. You can feel the progress we’ve made the grassroots level. And you can see how influential we’ve been in Congress by ...

Rise in Gangs Creates Bitter Debate By DAVID CRARY AP National Writer NEW YORK (AP) -- The rapid spread of vicious street gangs such as MS-13 is causing alarm in cities and suburbs nationwide, igniting bitter debate about how best to combat the threat and inspiring a comprehensive anti-gang bill in Congress. The measure is depicted by supporters as the only effective way to counterattack gang violence, and assailed by critics as an overreaction that could clog both federal courts and adult prisons with youthful offenders, most of them minorities. Sponsored by Rep. Randy Forbes, R-Va., the bill moved swiftly through the House Judiciary Committee last month and is scheduled for a House ...

This agreement had to be in place prior to the administration?s second term and it?s all-out offensive for Social Security reform. What would be the potential effects of this totalization agreement with Mexico, should the president choose to move it forward? Unauthorized illegal aliens working in the U.S. could ...

"Citizenaurgatory, or Innocent American citizens Trapped Between Heaven and Hell in the U.S." (thank you Mr. Dahl!) I wish to respond to Bill Dahl, a contributing columnist for the site Hispanic Vista. In part, Mr. Dahl states the following; "For these Latinos, the hope for citizenship in the U.S. is heaven. Visions of better jobs, education, healthcare, housing, protections against discrimination, racism, the ability to be all one can be, to contribute to the United States economy and culture on an equal footing - these are the elements of their hope. The country they departed was, at least, economically oppressive. Hope led them here. Hope keeps them here. They hope that we ...

Months of turmoil and bickering among staff, the administration, the physicians, nurses and medical assistants and community members had left widespread distrust, tenuous decision-making by a leaderless management team and a board overwhelmed by turnover of its own membership. La Clinica had come under the scrutiny of federal health officials late in 2004 after complaints about the former chief executive officer John ...
