Several years ago, DeeDee Garcia Blase founded the largest Hispanic Republican group in the nation via SOMOS REPUBLICANS that began in Arizona and later grew out of crisis when we reached an anti-immigrant fevered pitch. Blase finally had enough with the Republican Party and left it for good. She stepped down as the President of SOMOS REPUBLICANS and switched to the Independent Party. Most pro-immigrant Mexican-Americans / Latinos left the GOP registering themselves as Independent voters now in light of the anti-immigrant platform the GOP accepted in 2012.

Florida Senator Bill Nelson may not be as immigrant-friendly as he purports to be

by Dee Dee Garcia Blase on Aug. 09, 2012, under 2012 United states senate races

UPDATE: Florida Senator Bill Nelson is helping the immigrants (Claudio Rojas)

Looks like Senator Bill Nelson may not as immigrant friendly as he likes to pretend he is according to DREAM Activists. DREAM Act activists sent an “Our ask today letter of support” for Claudio (DREAMer) so that he can stop his now 18 day hunger strike. Instead of a letter of support the Senator arrested undocumented student Judith Veronica Huerta-Morfin.

Below, more youth getting arrested because they want to come out of the shadows of society.

I must say this is truly a disheartening image. While the United States spends millions and millions of dollars in war and/or in foreign aid to other countries — we can’t seem to fix the broken immigration system here in our own states. All we want is a humane legal immigration reform. But bigotry and racism is blocking it all. That’s the bottom line.
