"Washington, 18 July (EFE). - Because of the passage in the County of Loudoun (Virginia) of measures to prohibit to the undocumented immigrants to have access to county services, just like occured a week ago in the Prince William County also in Virginia, this causes the Hispanic community to not feel welcome.
One resolution is to be studied for six weeks and then they return for a vote in September, and it will prohibit access to some services of the county to those without immigration status, and will also close the businesses who use undocumented workers.
There will also be collaboration between the federal offices and the Sheriff of Loudoun County, and the authorities in immigration matters, which will make it more agile for deportations of undocumented people, as passed by the Council.
"The worse thing of all this is the discriminatory message that goes directed to the Latino community in these counties that it indicates to them that they are not welcome", said Kent Willis, executive director of the (ACLU) of Virginia.
The question now is, with these established measures which take place, there will be discrimination against all the Latin immigrants with papers or without them?", he said.
"These resolucions are a direct result of the incapacity of the Congress of the U.S.A. to solve the problem of the migratory system", explained Angela Sanbrano, President of the National Alliance of Communities Caribbean and Latin American (NALACC). "After the failure of the Migratory Reformation (comprehensive federal immigration Senate law), the local US counties have chosen to pass their own laws against the undocumented immigrants without recognizing the economic impact upon those cities" considered Anbrano.
Brent Wilkes, national executive director of Liga de United Latin American Ciudadanos (LULAC), said to our reporters that considers that is approved this type of measures and advertises "dissapointment" the possible consequences economically of the same ones.
"This negatively affects in the economy that the immigrants are an important manual labor and services that remains in the shadows", he said.
The resolution was approved Monday, segus, promotional, with to stop the increase of the delinquency that is especially pressing onto the the border of Loudoun County touching the City of Herndon and the Fairfax County (also both in Virginia). Don't many in the Loudoun County consider that the problem in this zone has its origin in the day labor work center in Herndon, where immigrants, legal or no, hope to that work per hours like gardeners or laborers of construccion is offered to them?
This center was set up just to the east of the county of Loudoun, and although from the Herndon side, the authorities there assure that they try that these workers do not go into the neighboring county, many residents of the area have denounced that these immigrants often usually cross this the border. The resolution in Loudoun County is very similar to approved the week last in Prince William County(Virginia) but something less severe, since in this county, they prohibit the services, authorizes to the Police to verify status migratory of any person who raises "reasonable suspicions".
In the case of resolucion de Loudoun of County went into the one hour to the agenda of the Meeting by the petitioning of the Republican Supervisor of Sterling, Eugene Delgaudio, that then got the support of the other five Republicans on the Council, that consists of nine members.
After to be approved yesterday, County administration responds with six weeks of study at the beginning of the resolution. The plenary session of the Meeting of Supervisors to return to meet in September for new voting in which to specify itself the details on text, such as the local county services that will come to be denied to the undocumented immigrants.
Nobody knows how many of the 270,000 inhabitants of the county reside are legal but the Hispanic associations agreed in which one of the keys is integracion.
"Whatever integrates these immigrants in these counties is the better solution to work for, because it is very easy to discriminate against which you do not know", concludes Wilkes. EFE"

Please don't take issue (w/ me at least) with the "undocumented" or "immigrant" faulty wording. Those are their words, in Spanish. This is precisely how the Hispanic press always talks about and classifies ILLEGAL ALIENS.
It is part and parcel of this hyper-entitlement mentality which is rampant in the illegal alien community and with the others who facilitate their unlawful, parasitic stay in the USA.
For general consideration, debate, strategy and Freeper direct action--especially on the local level around the country.
Yeah right. Kinda like Jesse jackson claiming to speak for blacks. Most Americans of latino heritage are happy to get rid of the leeches.
don’t wet your panties,
but as a westerner,
a californios,
i did not feel comfortable in virginia.
They cannot be expected to write that piece of truth in their papers or in say it in their broadcasts, now can they!!??
lol
If they were so interested in feeling welcome they would not publish their stories in Spanish, they’d publish them in English. Don’t expect to get a welcome mat put out for you when you break our country’s laws and refuse to speak its language.
I know. Truth is forbidden.
Yo no cuido. Gritame un rio.
Good.
I was just in Virginia 2 weeks ago..I was treated well...even though I’m an immigrant...
:)
There has been a literal WAVE/FLOOD of illegals coming here. We can reverse the flow into a potent WAVE/FLOOD out of the country.
I suppose they’ll move south to NC. We offer all kinds of services to illegals and getting an NC drivers license is easy as pie.
“There has been a literal WAVE/FLOOD of illegals coming here. We can reverse the flow into a potent WAVE/FLOOD out of the country.”
Yes. That is certainly doable.
Tell them to move to Newport News, Virginia.
Illegal Immigrants Say Local Law Enforcement Doesn't Care If They're Here Legally Or Not
That's interesting. Speaking of feelings, I have a distinct feeling of not caring.
Pardon me while I adjust my tagline.
"The worse thing of all this is the discriminatory message that goes directed to the Latino community in these counties that it indicates to them that they are not welcome", said Kent Willis, executive director of the (ACLU) of Virginia.
To the ACLU types and others mentally impaired:
That message is not directed at the latino community in any manner shape or form. Not a single legal immigrant, tourist or permanent resident needs to give it a second thought.
Yes, illegal immigrants from anywhere are not welcome; from Mexico or anywhere else.
Is that clear enough??!!??
My experience is the direct opposite. My daughter went to Georgetown.
I am a lifelong Californian (and a Latino).
I have been in Virginia a dozen times or more over the last 15 years and felt no less comfortable there than I do in, say, San Francisco.
And I grew up in San Francisco!
Well, jeez, I'm glad you could figure it out on your own.
Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
Bye - bye!
