SANDPOINT, Idaho,July 8, 2010 (AP): SomeRepublicans are unhappywith the Bonner CountyFair’s theme of “Fiesta atthe Fair,” in light of ongo-ing battles to stop undocu-mented immigration fromMexico.
The Bonner CountyGOP said it will decorate itsbooth with the word “cel-ebrate” instead of “fiesta.”The Republicans have alsoasked Arizona officials forsome license plates to putin the booth, to show sup-port for that state’s contro-versial law targeting ille-gal immigrants.
“The Republicans atBCRCC want to make itvery clear that English isour primary language, andcall our booths ‘Celebrate!’and display some Arizonalicense plates if you havesome to spare,” BonnerCounty Republican Cen-tral Committee ChairmanCornel Rasor wrote in a let-ter to Arizona Gov. JanBrewer, according to TheSpokesman-Review news-paper.
The fair runs Aug. 24-28 in Sandpoint, Idaho, atown with relatively few
PHOENIX, July 7, 2010(AP): The federal lawsuitagainst Arizona’s new immi-gration law focuses heavily ona question that has been in thespotlight repeatedly the pastdecade and dates back to theFounding Fathers: The right ofthe government to keep statesfrom enacting laws that usurpfederal authority.
The lawsuit filed in Phoe-nix federal court on Tuesdaysidestepped concerns about thepotential for racial profiling andcivil rights violations most of-ten raised by immigration ad-vocates. Experts said those areweaker arguments that don’tbelong in a legal challengebrought by the White House toget the measure struck down.
Instead, the suit lays out whythe government believes thatimmigration laws passed byCongress and enforced by arange of federal agencies musttake precedence to any passedby a state Legislature.
The Arizona law requiresofficers, while enforcing otherlaws, to question a person’simmigration status if there’s areasonable suspicion that theyare here without documenta-tion, such as speaking poorEnglish, traveling in an over-crowded vehicle or hanging outin an area where immigrantstypically congregate.
The law also makes it a statecrime for legal immigrants tonot carry their immigrationdocuments.
Backers of the law say thecrackdown is a necessary toolto keep undocumented immi-grants out of Arizona and com-bat problems such as drug traf-ficking, murders and violentkidnappings that have becomeso common in a state that is
home to an estimated 460,000undocumented residents.
The federal governmentwill ask a judge to grant aninjunction to block the lawfrom taking effect on July 29.
The arguments will focuson a core constitutional con-cern—balancing power be-tween the states and the fed-eral government. More spe-cifically, the issue centers onthe long-running “pre-emp-tion” legal argument that saysfederal law trumps state law.
“The nation’s immigra-tion laws reflect a careful andconsidered balance of na-tional law enforcement, for-eign relations, and humani-tarian interests,” the suit says.
The lawsuit goes on to saythat a “state may not estab-lish its own immigrationpolicy or enforce state lawsin a manner that interfereswith the federal immigrationlaws. The Constitution andthe federal immigration lawsdo not permit the develop-ment of a patchwork of stateand local immigration poli-cies throughout the country.”
Backers of the law say thatArizona will have somestrong arguments in its favorin fighting the lawsuit.
Kris Kobach, the Univer-sity of Missouri-Kansas Citylaw professor who helpeddraft the Arizona law, has saidthe state law is only prohib-iting conduct already illegalunder federal law. AndHarvard Law School profes-sor Gerald Neuman believesArizona could make a com-pelling legal argument that ithas overlapping authority toprotect its residents.
But courts have ruled thatunder the Supremacy Clause
of the Constitution, any statelaw that conflicts with a federallaw is pre-empted. Federal law,the framers said, “shall be thesupreme law of the land.”
The pre-emption tactic hasbeen successfully used by thefederal government on severaloccasions over the years, in-cluding by the Bush adminis-tration to limit product liabil-ity lawsuits. The governmentalso used it to overturn bans onmilitary recruiters passed byliberal California towns.
Federal courts have invokedthe Supremacy Clause on im-migration issues as well. Forexample, a federal judge in 2008struck down a Dallas suburb’sordinance that banned apart-ment rentals to undocumentedimmigrants, saying the U.S.government has the ultimateauthority to enforce immigra-tion laws.
Within months of takingoffice, the Obama White Housedirected department heads toundertake pre-emption of statelaw only with full consider-ation of the legitimate preroga-tives of the states. The 2009directive was aimed at revers-ing Bush administration policywhich had aggressively em-ployed pre-emption in an effortto undermine a wide range ofstate health, safety and envi-ronmental laws.
Despite the precedent, thatdoesn’t mean the lawsuit is asure winner, or that state offi-cials don’t believe they canpass laws that head into federalturf.
In fact, efforts by many statestrying to block the nation’s newhealth care law run headlonginto the Constitution’s Su-premacy Clause. But immigra-tion is one area where federal
minorities that is about 90miles north of Spokane, Wash.
Bonner County fair boardChairman Tim Cary said thefair was just looking for a themethat’s fun to decorate with,and the choice had nothing todo with official language orimmigration disputes.
Cary noted that one of thefair’s regular offerings is theMexican food sold at theSearch and Rescue booth.
“Are we supposed tochange the name of a burrito tosomething in English?” Carysaid. “I’m thinking there’ssome narrow-mindednesshere, but that’s just my opin-ion.”
The county GOP at itsmonthly meeting in Junevoted to “affirm” Arizona’stough immigration law and tosend the letter seeking the li-cense plates for the fair boothto Arizona’s governor.
Rasor, also a county com-missioner, sought to distancehimself from the clashWednesday but acknowl-edged he signed and sent theletter.
“Having a fiesta theme atthe fair was OK with me, Ididn’t even think about it ‘tilsomebody brought it up,”Rasor said. “But their con-
cerns are very real to them,so I don’t want to downplayit.”
Rasor said the words “fi-esta” and “celebrate” meanthe same thing.
“So technically speak-ing we didn’t have a differ-ent theme than the fair, it’sjust a different spelling,” hesaid.
Last year’s fair theme was“A Black Tie and Blue JeansAffair.”
The Arizona law, not yetin effect and under legal chal-lenge, is intended to driveundocumented immigrantsout of Arizona and discour-age them from coming to theUnited States. It requires po-lice investigating anothercrime to ask people abouttheir immigration status ifthere’s “reasonable suspi-cion” they’re in the countrywithout documentatin. Italso makes being in the coun-try without documentationa misdemeanor under statelaw.
The Idaho Legislaturemay consider a similar lawin its next session.

authority has generally beenupheld.
“Immigration has tradi-tionally and constitutionallybeen the historic preserve ofthe federal government, andthere are cases going back tothe late 19th century that sayas much,” said Peter Spiro, aconstitutional law professorat Temple University who hasstudied immigration law ex-tensively. “So the Obama Ad-ministration has a lot to workwith in filing this claim, andthe fact that the claim is filedby the administration addscredibility ... and increases the

chances that law will be struckdown on pre-emption grounds.
“That said, it not by anymeans a slam dunk,” Spiro said.
Regardless of how the caseis determined at the districtcourt level, it will likely beappealed. The U.S. SupremeCourt is already set to hear anArizona immigration case inthe fall when it takes up a chal-lenge to a 2007 state law pun-ishing employers who know-ingly hire undocumented im-migrants.
If the high court doesn’t is-sue a broad ruling on states’rights to implement laws on
immigration in that case, pre-pare to see the case filed Tues-day make to the justices, Spirosaid.
“It’s clearly an importantcase. The Arizona law is un-precedented in its aggressiveposture towards illegal immi-grants. It’s an important issuefederally, really, that’s the waythe administration is framingit. They say the states do nothave this kind of role as far animmigration legislation.”

NEW YORK, July 8, 2010(AP): Pro-immigrationgroups gathered outside Ma-jor League Baseball head-quarters in Manhattan onThursday to protest keepingthe 2011 All-Star game inPhoenix.
Demonstrators said thegame should be moved fromArizona in opposition to thestate’s strict new immigra-tion law, signed in April. Thestatute, SB 1070, requirespolice, while enforcing otherlaws, to ask about a person’simmigration status if there isreasonable suspicion that theperson is in the country ille-gally.
“It goes against the coreof who we are as a country,”Hector Figueroa, secretarytreasurer of immigrant laborunion 32BJ, said of the Ari-
PHOENIX, el 9 deJulio del 2010 (AP): Elpopular cómico televisivoStephen Colbert se alió eljueves al presidentede los TrabajadoresRurales Unidos deEstados Unidos ArturoRodríguez para desafiara los estadounidensesdesempleados de que tomenlos empleos de los migrantesque laboran en el campo.
El sindicato lanzó hacetiempo una campaña en quepide a los estadounidensesque rellenen un formulariobajo el título “Yo quiero serun trabajador rural”, en elsitio de internet “Tomennuestros trabajos”,www.takeourjobs.org.
Hasta ahora, sólo tres per-sonas respondieron y ya
comenzaron a trabajar en elcampo, dijo Rodríguez.
“Que sean cuatro”, afirmóenfático Colbert.
Más de la mitad delos trabajadores agrariosson inmigrantes indocu-mentados, según elDepartamento de Trabajo deEstados Unidos. El sindicato(UFW en inglés) asegura queno les están quitandoempleos a los ciudadanosestadounidenses, porque lamayoría de éstos no quierenese tipo de trabajo.
Los defensores de leyes deinmigración más estrictasresponden que el problemacon la propuesta de UFW esque los agricultores no quierenpagar salarios más altos nimejorar las condiciones detrabajo para atraer a empleados
zona law.Organizers played “Take
Me Out to the Ball Game” andthe national anthem. Partici-pants carried signs like “Stealbases, not civil liberties” and“Take me out to the ball game,don’t check my papers first.”
Commissioner Bud Selighas repeatedly said the gamewill remain in Phoenix. MLBhad no comment onThursday’s events.
Chung-Wha Hong, execu-tive director of the New YorkImmigration Coalition, saidSelig would show a “lack ofcourage” if he doesn’t movethe game.
“People don’t want base-ball to be associated with ... allthat the Arizona law repre-sents,” she said.

ing Americans to fill out anonline form under the banner“I want to be a farm worker” atwww.takeourjobs.org.
Rodríguez says that so farjust three have responded andwere in the fields.
“Make that four,” the co-median replied emphatically.
The U.S. Labor Departmentsays more than half of farmworkers are undocumentedimmigrants. The UFW arguesthey’re not taking jobs from
U.S.-Ameri-c a n sb e -causemost don’t want the work.
Proponents of tougherimmigration laws respondthat the problem with theUFW’s proposition is thatgrowers don’t want to raisewages and improve workingconditions enough to attractU.S.-Americans.
Colbert teams up with UFWover immigration
Popular cómico de TV trabajará en el campocon migrantes

solicitud para convertirse entrabajador agrario que “elempleo puede incluir el usode herramientas de manocomo cuchillos, azadas,palas, etc. Las tareas puedenincluir arar la tierra,trasplantar, cortar hierbas,podar, recoger, cortar, separary empacar los frutoscosechados”.
Agrega que “el trabajo sehace en el exterior bajocualquier condición cli-matic—en verano, de 90grados (Fahrenheit, 32grados centígrados) o más—y es exigente físicamente, yaque requiere agacharse,doblarse, levantar ytransportar hasta 50 libras (22kilos) en forma frecuente”.
held a sign that read “SheriffJoe is not a team player.” Shesaid it was important to di-rectly take their message toMLB.
“Maybe if they see us inperson they’ll hear our mes-sage more loudly,” saidCallan, the incoming state-wide advocacy coordinatorfor the group.
A smaller countermove-ment of people in support ofthe Arizona law also gath-ered outside the MLB offices.New Yorkers for ImmigrationControl and Enforcementpresident Joanna Marzullo,wearing a cap said that “U.S.Border Patrol,” said she isn’tnecessarily a big fan of base-ball.
“I’m a big fan of the gameremaining in Arizona,” shesaid.

BOWLING GREEN:Following rave reviewsfrom last year’s participantsand concert attendees, theNew York Voices VocalJazz Camp returns toBowling Green StateUniversity’s College ofMusical Arts Aug. 2-8,2010.
The camp will onceagain provide a blend ofthe group’s style of en-semble singing and soloistvirtuosity in both teachingand performing. The mul-tiple Grammy Award-win-ners return with several newreleases in tow.
“Singing at the campboth as a soloist and as partof an ensemble has in-
formed not just my workand performance in jazz, butalso my singing in front ofrock crowds with my rhythmand blues band,” reportedTexas resident Elisha Jor-dan, a 2009 camp partici-pant.
While this uniquelyAmerican art form was thepopular music of the 1930sand ’40s, a recent resur-gence with such performersas Norah Jones and MichaelBublé has lent the educa-tional efforts of the NewYork Voices new steam.
In concerts on Aug. 3 andAug. 5, group members KimNazarian, Peter Eldridge,Darmon Meader, and LaurenKinhan will perform mate-
New York Voices Vocal JazzCamp returns to BGSU
rial from their solo record-ings.

Rejoining the group willbe West Coast vocal entre-preneur Greg Jasperse, whocontinues to make his markas an ensemble and solovocalist in a cappella, vocaljazz and other vocal groups.

Washington, D.C. andCleveland: Girl power is in ac-tion for the young ladies of clubELLA (Esperanza Inc.’s LatinaLeadership Alliance), as theymeet and learn from inspira-tional local Latinas, talk aboutfeminine topics, and just enjoybeing niñas. [Esperanza, Inc.has a comparable program forniños—Ellos.]
Late May, 2010, they hadthe opportunity to meet a promi-nent Latina who shattered a glassceiling that created shockwavesin Washington, D.C. and thenation—Supreme Court JusticeSonia Sotomayor.
Thirteen members of ELLAwere chosen for the specialmeeting with the Justice as areward for their hard work andparticipation, said CarmenDeHann, who created ELLAthree years ago.
While ELLAs and their men-tors were ecstatic for the meet-ing, Justice Sotomayor was alsokeen to get to know them: “Shejust fell in love with the girlsand really took her time talkingto them,” said DeHann.
“I felt like I was the onlyperson in the room when sheanswered my question,” saidELLA Betsi Gómez, who willattend Bowling Green StateUniversity in the fall to pursuea degree in Early ChildhoodEducation.
Gómez said JusticeSotomayor is an inspirationbecause she has achievedsomething no other Latinahas, and gives her courage asshe breaks her own glass ceil-ing—being the first in herfamily to attend college.
For Gómez, ELLA is a‘safe’ place, where she canopen up, de-stress, talk aboutuncomfortable issues, andmeet new people. “It is aboutus finding our own identitiesand knowing we can do any-thing in a male dominatedworld,” she said.
Karen Mejias admiredJustice Sotomayor’s humil-ity and down-to-earth man-ner; “She didn’t have to beformal with us or use bigwords... she was open withus.”
Also a Puerto Rican, Karensaid meeting JusticeSotomayor reaffirmed herconviction that she can ac-complish all of her goals anddreams—such as becoming anurse and running a charityhospital. “I want to helppeople, make a difference andnot because I want people toadmire me but to provide forthose in need,” she said.
One comment that reso-nated with Mejias: ‘Believein yourself even if peopledon’t.’
A self-proclaimed ‘girly-girl,’ Mejias is always encour-aging friends to join ELLAbecause it is fun, informative,boosts confidence and, “Gettheir minds off of boys!”
At ELLA, she has a team ofsupporters who lift her self-esteem, “I always believe inpeople when they tell me theirdreams, because I would notwant anyone else to not be-lieve in me,” concluded Meijas.
DeHann said Sotomayorencouraged the girls to stretchtheir minds, and dare to dreambig—a core purpose of ELLA.The group was accompaniedby Judge Keila Cosme, firstLatina Ohio Appellate Judge,after being appointed by Gov.Ted Strickland to the 6th Appel-late District (based in Toledo,Ohio).
Also accompanying ELLAwas Stephanie Morales, who isrunning for the District 2 seaton the Cuyahoga CountyCouncil in November. Moralesis director of Key Career Placeat Cuyahoga Community Col-lege.
Morales said she idolizesJustice Sotomayor and sharedthe girls’ sentiment when meet-ing her. “It was great to see theimpact she had on the girls; sheplanted seeds of possibilitiesof the future in them.”
Morales said she wishes aprogram like ELLA had ex-isted when she was growingup—to foster relationships withpeers and network with profes-sional role models.
ELLA members presentedJudge Sotomayor with a grati-tude basket filled with ELLAand Esperanza trinkets andeach received personalizedautographed Time MagazineCovers as mementos. Privatedonors covered all expensesfor the trip, and DeHann hopesit will become an annualevent.
“We are the first ones toexperience something so amaz-ing but I hope we are not thelast,” said Betsi Gómez.
To become involved inELLA call Esperanza Inc. fordetails.

ARIES: MARCH 21 - APRIL 20It’s hard to know how to react to people who are in the
throes of an identity crises. Acutely aware that anythingcould trigger them off you don’t know whether to put yourfoot down or ignore their histrionics.
TAURUS: APRIL 21 - MAY 20You can go at it with all the positive thinking you’ve
got and keep making affirmations forever. None of this willturn around until you figure out that your focused inten-tions have to come from the heart.
GEMINI: MAY 21 - JUNE 20Instead of trying to get everyone to see it your way, try
to accept the fact that they can’t and let it be. Stop takingeverything so seriously. The world won’t come to an endif you agree to disagree.
CANCER: JUNE 21 - JULY 20You’ve been around long enough to know that things
go better when we have no investment in the outcome. Anyway this goes you’re going to have the opportunity to turnit into something that will benefit everyone.
LEO: JULY 21 - AUGUST 20You know as well as I do that hooking up with people
because you’re lonely, bored, or in need of a meal ticketdoesn’t work over the long haul. Don’t call this love whenin fact it is a matter of expedience.
VIRGO: AUGUST 21 - SEPTEMBER 20Most of this confusion has been generated by other
people and their stuff. It’s gotten way out of hand. Know-ing this should make it easier to say no the next time theyshow up expecting you to bail them out.
LIBRA: SEPTEMBER 21 - OCTOBER 20As much as you don’t want to sell yourself short, it’ll
cost you a fortune to keep this afloat. Your freedom is worthway more than that. What would it be worth to you to bedone with this once and for all?
SCORPIO: OCTOBER 21 - NOVEMBER 20You’ve come under the spell of someone who is exactly
the opposite of what they appear to be. God knows why youcan’t see it. Let’s hope you wake up before the awful truthcomes along and shocks you to your senses.
SAGITTARIUS: NOVEMBER 21 - DECEMBER 20Being caught in a situation that requires even more
from you than you’ve already given to it has you wonder-ing if maybe it’s time to split. Who knows? Your absencecould be just what it takes to clear things up.
CAPRICORN: DECEMBER 21 - JANUARY 20You have no business complaining. This is exactly
what you wanted. If the reality of it doesn’t match yourpictures, be mindful of the fact that your experience is thereto help you refine and bring the two together.
AQUARIUS: JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 20The decision to clean up the past always starts out as a
straight forward thing; until it meets up with the peopleand issues it concerns. Think twice about talking thingsover with people who just can’t hear it.
PISCES: FEBRUARY 21 - MARCH 20When you’re coming unglued it’s insane to try to stay
tuned to your normal routine. Falling apart has its place inthe scheme of things. Give yourself plenty of space andtime to put Humpty Dumpty together again.

A roar rose from Madrid, andalmost certainly across the na-tion, when goalkeeper IkerCasillas lifted the cup in SouthAfrica. Spain, long tagged aperennial underachiever, hadnever before gone to the WorldCup final.
In the Netherlands, the moodwas funereal. Fans wept andhugged in The Hague at thefinal whistle and tossed of hand-fuls of orange confetti into theair that had been intended for avictory party.
“It’s such a deception. Wewere so close. I feel empty, saidSander Lubbers, a 33-year-oldshopworker.
“It’s a great shame, but Spainwas the better team.” said Arend-jan Meijer.
“It’s only football,” he added,as he headed for home kickinghis way through piles of plasticbeer cups.
In Madrid, the beer tastedbetter. Vuvuzuela horns so typi-cal of the matches in South Af-rica this World Cup, had dronedthroughout the city and car hornsbegan to honk incessantly.
Tens of thousands put upwith more than 100-degree heat

El timonel destacó laentrega del plantel español,una lista de jugadores queen gran medida heredó de supredecesor en el cargo LuisAragonés y que venían deganar la Eurocopa en 2008.
También señaló queEspaña siempre se mantuvofiel a su estilo de juego, un“fútbol ofensivo, de calidad,de ataque”.
“No hemos tratado deborrar ningún ejercicio delpasado, la línea estabamarcada”, indicó DelBosque.
El entrenador señaló, sinembargo, que el fútbol bo-nito no quita “el esfuerzo, lalucha, la garra”.
“Eso es atemporal, no esde un tiempo anterior.También es ahora”, afirmó.
from early in the day to get thebest positions before giantscreens in major plazas in townsand cities. In Madrid, emer-gency ambulance servicestreated dozens of people whohad fainted.
Television images evenshowed crowds waving Span-ish flags in the city of Barcelona,where more than 1.1 millionprotested on Saturday to de-mand autonomy for theirCatalonia region.
Prime Minister Jose LuisRodriguez Zapatero, whose pollnumbers have dropped due tothe country’s economic woes,said he celebrated the win withsome Catalan sparkling wine.
“We raised a glass of cavaand a few tears came to my eyes,which is unusual for me, be-cause I know how to control myemotions,” Zapatero said. “Theywere 120 intense minutes forme. It was an epic victory. We allfeared penalties.”
On the street, 22-year-oldMarta Seco was overcome withemotion.
“This is the greatest sportingevent in the history of the coun-try,” she shouted with tears inher eyes.
The fiesta wasn’t even con-tained to Spain. In Toronto, forinstance, Spanish fans also tookto the streets, dancing on a U-Haul truck, a streetcar, and evena transit shelter.
In Mexico City, about 2,500revelers converged at the Plazade Cibeles in the trendy RomaNorte district. They bangeddrums, blew vuvuzelas andmarched around the fountainthere _ an exact copy of themonument with the same namein Madrid _ chanting and sing-ing.
Back in Madrid, one banneramid the masses read “OctopusPaul, Forever!” and featured acrudely drawn picture of theoctopus from Germany whobecame a pop culture sensationby correctly picking World Cupmatches. He was right againabout the final.
Police helicopters hoveredover Madrid into the early hoursof Monday and riot police pro-tected major monuments.
Fans watching from a patiobar in a working-class neighbor-hood whooped in joy, yelling“Spain! Spain!” They dancedon their bar chairs and huggedeach other. Others yelled “Yes!Yes! The cup is now ours!”
The night sky of the Alcoronsuburb was bright with fireworksand the bar patrons cheered eachother with beer and sangria on asweltering summer night, thenjoined in the dancing, dodgingfirecrackers tossed about byother fans.
“It’s just amazing, I almostdon’t believe it,” said a beamingFeliciano Hernandez, a 25-year-old electrician. “I’m so proud,totally happy and living for themoment and not thinking aboutanything else right now.”
Nacho Moreno danced in thestreet waving the Spanish flaghe had kept wrapped around hishead for luck during the game ascars drove by, honking theirhorns in salute. He said he wouldprobably drink until dawn tocelebrate.
“It’s phenomenal! Spainwon. I was real nervous but Iknew it was possible,” said the23-year-old waiter.

How does one achieveand maintain the spirit ofAmerican independence inan utterly interdependentsociety? We do this by cul-tivating it in our hearts andminds, and by inculcating itin those of our children.
It is no longer possiblefor most Americans to main-tain the physical indepen-dence so common in theagrarian days of ourfounders; we cannot practi-cally grow our own food, ormake our own clothing, orbuild our own houses. Butwe can grow our own minds,make our own decisions, andbuild our own futures.
The first tool is educa-tion. Imperfect though itmay be, America’s systemof public andprivate education still pro-vides the essentials for learn-ing. It must be encouragedand supported, not only bythe citizens whose childrenuse it, but by their neigh-bors in each community, thelegislators who must ad-equately fund it, and theadministrators responsiblefor using each dollar wisely.
Interestingly, in the spiritof independence, more fami-lies are successfully homeschooling their children. Asbasic skills are gained, moreadvanced tools are readily
available – an excellentexample being our ownLorain County CommunityCollege, the best in Ohio.With education comes theskill to think independentlyand make reasoned deci-sions. Without it, we aresheep led by the loudestshepherd.
Second is family – thecore strength of our nation.Study after study under-scores the importance of atwo-parent structure to thesuccess of the children. Yetyear by year, single-parentfamilies increase in number,and are increasingly identi-fied as a major factor in theproblems of crime, schooldropouts and welfare depen-dency that sap many Ameri-cans of the ability and willto think and act for them-selves.
With the basic buildingblocks of education and fam-ily, Americans are the betterprepared to respond inde-pendently to the demands oftheir governance – to beaware, involved participantsin the decision-making oftheir cities, counties, statesand nation. Education – es-pecially in history and civ-ics – helps offset the propa-ganda of partisan politics.Strong family values givepurpose to retaining that
which is good. Without thatvigilance and participation,government falls into thehands of those least inclinedto act for the betterment ofthe governed, and most in-clined to prostitute it to theirown selfish ends.
“We hold these truths tobe self-evident,” Jeffersonwrote in the Declaration wecelebrate today, “that allmen are created equal, andare endowed by their Cre-ator with certain unalien-able rights…” But thoserights, and the independentspirit that recognized themand embedded them in thefabric of this nation, do notcome without a price. Thatprice is a continuingstruggle by each and everyone of us to improve our-selves, as independent in-dividuals and citizens, sothat coming generationsmay build upon the free-doms we have so enjoyed.

Ann Arbor, Michigan hasdone it!
Cleveland has done it!So have Columbus and
Lucas County, Ohio!And so have dozens of cit-
ies/counties across the UnitedStates – all of whom passedresolutions opposing the dra-conian Arizona Senate Bill1070 – the controversial immi-gration law signed by ArizonaGovernor Jan Brewer on April23, effective July 29, 2010 [un-less enjoined by a court in pend-ing litigation.]
That law requires all locallaw enforcement officers to in-vestigate a person’s immigra-tion status when there is “rea-sonable suspicion” that theperson is in the country unlaw-fully. It also makes it a crime tobe in Arizona without docu-mentation.
Further, it permits the arrestof a person, without a warrant,if there is suspicion that theperson has committed a publicoffense that makes the personremovable from the UnitedStates.
Opponents of the law havebeen quick to point out that itencourages racial profiling andviolates the 14th Amendmentguarantees of Due Process andEqual Protection of the Lawsfor U.S. citizens, legal residents,and visitors who are detainedfor suspicion of being in thecountry unlawfully. It also un-dermines the U.S. Constitutionwhich grants U.S. Congress theexclusive power over immigra-tion matters.
The majority of police com-mand are opposed to the AZlaw, believing that it will alsohamper police in effectivelydealing with serious localcrime; the police command arealso concerned with the effectsof the law, making immigrant-victims of crime more vulner-able.
At press time, at least sevenlegal challenges, including oneby the U.S. Department of Jus-tice, have been filed in Arizonacourts against the law which isscheduled to become law at theend of the month.
But Toledo’s City Councilblew their chance to go on recordas opposing the bill – at least foranother week.
On July 6, the Council split6-6 on a cobbled resolutionoffered by Councilmen AdamMartínez and Joe McNamara.Although the resolution some-what sidesteps actual condem-nation of the law, it still couldn’tmuster the seven votes requiredto get it out of a committee andbefore the full Council for avote.
OP-ED by Alan AbramsToledo City Council misses an opportunity tojoin growing opposition to AZ immigration law
In fact, the resolution is anomnibus creation addressingthree pressing social issues –the need for comprehensiveimmigration reform, oppos-ing human trafficking, andopposing “unscrupulous em-ployment practices.”
So what self-respectingCouncil member wanted togo on record stating they op-posed furthering a resolutionagainst human trafficking –much less a resolution advo-cating immigration reform?
How about D. MichaelCollins, George Sarantou,Tom Waniewski, Councilpresident Wilma Brown, MikeAshford, and Rob Ludeman?
La Prensa left a detailedphone message for formerCouncil president Ludemanasking him to explain his vote,but he never returned the call.
However, Wilma Browndefended her vote while point-ing to her long history of sup-porting Latino organizationssuch as the Farm Labor Orga-nizing Committee (FLOC)and its president BaldemarVelásquez.
“Jim Crow” lawBut Baldemar
Velásquez, Presi-dent of the FarmLabor OrganizingC o m m i t t e e(FLOC), found thenew AZ law, a“shameful mea-sure, blaming immigrants forcurrent economic woeswrapped around immigrationhysteria!” “We will continueto fight this Latino version ofJim Crow and other measuresof intimidation,” promisedVelásquez.
Brown continued in herinterview with La Prensa:“This is an issue about a state’sHome Rule, and I had someproblems with the first three‘Whereas’ paragraphs be-cause I was uncomfortablecriticizing a state for a HomeRule decision and a law. Wewould not do these thingshere, but I felt we needed totweak the language.
Maybe President WilmaBrown should read the U.S.Constitution, which gives thefederal government exclusivejurisdiction in immigrationmatters—if she does not likethe U.S. Constitution thereare procedures to amend it.
“I also thought it be-longed in the Law and Crimi-nal Justice Committee. So Idid not actually vote againstthe resolution. I only voted onkeeping it in committee,”lamely explained Brown.
Councilman Mike Collinsearlier told the Toledo Bladethat he opposed taking up theresolution because it does notdeal with governing Toledo.
Toledo Mayor Mike Bell,who could have broken the tievote, declined to do so, statinghe would vote on the resolutionat the next Council meeting onJuly 20, 2010.
The Blade also reported thatbefore the July 6 regular meet-ing, Council held a three-hourcommittee meeting on the im-migration resolution and a sepa-rate ordinance to codify poli-cies regarding racial profiling.
As worded, the Toledo reso-lution falls far short of similarresolutions passed by othermunicipalities in which SB1070 is actually singled out ina stand-alone resolution.
Indeed, the first of the threesections of the proposed To-ledo resolution states that the“City of Toledo opposes legis-lation that punishes victims asopposed to perpetrators of hu-man trafficking and unscrupu-lous employment practices.”
It is only in the second sec-tion that the Council “calls upon
the President of the UnitedStates and the UnitedStates Congress to pass acomprehensive immigra-tion reform bill that willsolve the problem of un-documented immigrationat its roots instead ofthrough piecemeal en-
forcement-only measures, thatwill keep families together, up-hold our values as Americans,promote economic growth andfix the broken immigration sys-tem for the long-term.”
Yet according to Ryan Bates,a Michigan activist with theReform Immigration forAmerica organization, the Ari-zona law has touched off a vir-tual firestorm of opposition bycities across the United States—including opposition in Phoe-nix AZ.
Bates told La Prensa thatdozens of cities including De-troit, Columbus, Los Angelesand San Francisco have gonemuch further than Toledo’s ef-fort by not only passing resolu-tions opposing SB 1070—andas in Ann Arbor calling for itsrepeal—but have actually calledfor boycotts or banning city-funded travel to Arizona in re-sponse to the proposed law.
Toledo City Council shouldtake a hard look at the motivesbehind Arizona’s SB 1070 andits effects upon minorities—Toledo should not becomeknown as a “Hate City” as Ari-zona has become known as the“Hate State.”
The ending of two Mayancalendars on December 21,2012 is not a prophecy fordoomsday, but the ending ofone cycle and beginning ofanother, said Rainbow Eagle,an Okla-Choctaw AmericanIndian.
“All prophecies are reallyabout the past, take courageto go backwards for clues towhat is going on,” he said.Rainbow Eagle is a respectedteacher, scholar, author and‘Wisdom Keeper’. He hasspent years traveling and liv-ing and studying with nativetribes of North America andpenned two books: ‘The An-cient Roots of Christianity: ANative American’s LookThrough Christianity’.
Speaking at the MichelleStar Yoga Studio on July 9,2010, he shared enlighten-ing perspectives on theMayan prophecies inter-preted through native tribesand Christianity.
The winter solstice of2012 indicates a period ofheightened activity, “MotherEarth is coming into balance,it is a time of increased activ-ity but she’ll calm down,” hesaid. The natural disasters anatural consequence thatshould not be feared as theyhave occurred before; “Therehave been 54 significant bal-ancing times noted by geolo-gists studying the Grand Can-yon,” he said.
Rainbow Eagle stressedcycles, of the past that arepresent and will exist in thefuture, are opportunities formankind to untangle fromfear. Circles have no end-point, they continue infi-nitely and hence the endingof the baktun Mayan calen-dar; which contains 144,000
days, equivalent to 394.25years does not mean the end ofthis world, but end of a cycle.
The elaborate Mayan cal-endars interrelate cosmic andearth cycles; they track thecycle of the moon, Venus andthe sun. Rainbow Eagle addedtheir intimate understandingof natural cycles combined withastrology helped them predictthe future.
The significance of Dec. 21,2012 is the cosmic alignment,the sun will be positioned ex-actly at the center of the MilkyWay; an event which onlyoccurs every 25,800 years.Rainbow said the Mayans be-lieved this would open astargate from which 13 visi-tors of profound knowledgewill return and enlighten theworld and information will beaccessible again. He noted isthe midpoint of this time goesback to 550 B.C.; another pe-riod of great teachers like Bud-dha and Confucius appeared.
To truly understand themeaning and predictions inmodern times the past has to beseen in context and interpretedin original meaning. He saidjust as the current interpreta-tion of words evolved or werechanged from the time of Jesusor Yeshua, the Native prophe-cies are also often misinter-preted. He said the philosophyof words from the time of Jesushave changed and demon-strated by choosing commonwords like ‘evil’ which carriesa heavy connotation now butsimply meant unripe; or‘apocalypse’ which meant ‘un-veiling of hidden truth’.
“We have to look at thingsdifferently, not house spiritu-ality with fear or guilt,” hesaid, noting many religionsuse fear to encourage good
behavior and the system ofreward and punishment isdeeply ingrained on humanpsyche.
Rainbow Eagle said as allorganized religions the Na-tive tribe too prophesize atime of unrest and turbulenceand the need to return to na-ture and love. Expect theirinterpretation of heaven is onearth; “There was no need forthis far away place,” said Rain-bow Eagle, the promised Uto-pia is all around us.
The new era, RainbowEagle said will be a time ofbalance harmony betweenthe masculine and feminine;“Mother earth is not a place ofpunishment but growth.”
Jean Mraz was among the30 attendees listening to thepresentation. She said Rain-bow Eagle explains a differ-ent perspective of Christianteachings and promotes a shiftin consciousness. Mraz saidas she struggles with personaland situational shifts in herlife, she was drawn to learnmore, though she feels a senseof guilt as if she is betrayingher traditional upbringing. “Iam trying to be conscious ofthe changes going on in theworld,” she said.
