LULAC is a fundamentally biased group, even racist.
They do not care about the United States of America.
They do not care about the United States Constitution.
They care more about scoring political points and playing the race card.

LULAC Statement on ICE Intimidation Tactic on Activist Maru
Mora-Villalpando
Seattle, WA – Recently Maru Mora, a 47-year-old Mexican
native and outspoken activist was put in deportation proceedings by Immigration
and Customs Enforcement (ICE). She’s lived in the United States for over 25
years. Her daughter, Josefina Alanis Mora is 20 years old, born in the U.S. and
currently studying at Western Washington University. Maru believes she is being
targeted as a form of retaliation for her relentless activism efforts. Maru is
one of several immigration activists across the country who have been targeted
for deportation under President Donald Trump. She believes ICE is targeting
activists as an attempt to intimidate the Latino community and their allies.
ICE is targeting everyone. Every person in this country illegally is subect to deportation. There is no right for illegal aliens to stay in this country.
In response, LULAC National President Roger C. Rocha Jr.
issued the following statement:
“ICE says it’s focused on deporting criminals, but Maru is
no criminal. For years Maru has served as a strong community advocate, helping
organize and raise awareness about issues that impact the Latino community.
She’s made it a point to educate families all across the state of Washington
about immigrant rights. Maru has also stood alongside farmworkers in the berry
fields in northern Washington. She’s done all this while also defending
immigrants treated inhumanely at the for-profit detention center in Tacoma.
Again, it’s easy to see Maru is not a criminal but an advocate. In fact, she is
an example of the type of community leader our country needs, which is why
LULAC presented her with an award at the 2014 LULAC’s first Women’s Summit in
the Pacific Northwest held in Vancouver, WA.
Yes, Maru is a criminal. She lives in the country illegally; therefore, she is a criminal.
Thanks, and have a nice day.
ICE immigration arrests of noncriminals have doubled under
Trump and it must stop. LULAC will continue to stand with Maru and all our
immigrant community.”
You "immigrant" community would have nothing to worry about, if you are talking about men and women who have entered this country legally from other countries.
"Immigrant" must never be debased to including people who broke into this country, violating our national laws and sovereignty.
LULAC is an organization focused on helping illegal-alien lawbreakers avoid deportation. Latino Americans have little use for it.
