Domingo Garcia, the national president of the League of United Latin American Citizens, or LULAC, sent a letter to President Joe Biden on Sunday, July 4, asking him to take executive action in stopping Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and others from sending National Guard troops to the border. This is another example of an organization putting their leftist/race politics ahead of the safety of all Americans, including Americans of Hispanic descent.
According to LULAC, “using National Guard troops from South Dakota being paid by a private billionaire, is pay-to-play with National Guard troops is illegal, unconstitutional.” Furthermore, Garcia said, “it sets a very bad precedent that any individual can hire out National guard troops from any state for whatever purpose they want.”
Of course, Garcia conveniently ignores some important “constitutional” points. First of all, the governors of several states are stepping up to protect their citizens from a foreign invasion because Democrats refused. Second, the border crisis is a national crisis affecting all states, not just Texas.
Finally, Garcia’s complaint about a private person paying for the South Dakota National Guard is shortsighted and anti-American. Liberals and leftists are always complaining about the rich “not paying their fair share,” and here is someone who has stepped up pay for the nation's defense.
Garcia and LULAC have shown they prefer to endanger Americans with an unsecured international border that allows drugs, diseases, criminals, and possible terrorists to enter. He also shows his ignorance in not recognizing the many Americans of Hispanic descent who want to protect and defend their homeland, the United States of America, against illegal immigration and international crime.
Other leftist groups have voiced their opposition to securing the border. Several counties have received a letter from the ACLU "warning" them of legal action if they "overstep" their authority in federal immigration matters.
As an American of Hispanic descent, LULAC and Garcia do not speak for me. All Americans, including Hispanic Americans, want a secure border and controlled immigration. Border security is not about race or ethnicity.
We must secure the border with a wall, law enforcement personnel, equipment, and technology, and by denying benefits and deporting all illegal aliens regardless of age or condition. We must stop excusing and rewarding illegal immigration even when the race-baiting leftists scream and shout.
