Naturalization / voting drive
I was watching the Spanish Language Despierta America news show on Univision this morning, there seems to be a big push to naturalize foreigners from Latin America and shove them into the voting booth.
I'm not sure of the name of the organization http://ciudadania.yaeshora.info/sobre?id=0005 (the website has Ya Es Hora Ciudadania to the left of two buttons named Hagase Ciudadano and Vey Voto). They have have a toll free free number with operators working the phones as well as the website (the reporter interviewed an immigration attorney and another functionary in the call room); There are citizenship seminar and voting registration locations (presumably crammed full of propaganda material) plastered all over the Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco areas; a good sprinkling in the San Joaquin Valley; and representation in a number of other states - it's a long list, might be fifty state. The locations run the gamut from Catholic Churches and Catholic charities, NALEO (National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials), Mexicana Hermandad, Attorney's offices, public high schools, and colleges, you name it. Once again: Quote:
