Editor,
Thank you all for commenting on the opinion letter written by Patricia Roybal Caballero. Hopefully you can be present during a DREAM Act forum where the League of United Latin American Citizens will be sponsoring the event alongside El Centro de la Raza, and MexSA sometime in April.
It is actually quite sad that the majority of this state’s students do not have the resources or equal opportunities to consider themselves higher-education students as you all do.
It is that ignorant, selfish attitude that we Hispanics battle every day and will continue to do so until we have achieved equal representation. It is politically correct to say there is power in numbers, something Hispanics in this state are not short of.
Opponents of equality, hear this: We will not stop. We will never surrender the noble fight for our people.
Hope to see you at our forum to discuss a path to citizenship for immigrant students. Announcements for the set date of the forum will be in the Daily Lobo sometime next week.
