Speaker. it is obvious why the Republicans drafted this bill. Republicans learned in 1996 that there is a price to pay for practicing the politics of prejudice. Latino voters grew tired of hearing Republicans redhot rhetoric and coldhearted legislation targeting our communities. so in response Latinos voted for tolerance. opportunity and equality. In other words. Latinos voted for Democrats. What is the Republican reaction? To change course to end their antiLatino antiimmigrant behavior? No. Now they want to create unnecessary fear within the Hispanic community and create unwarranted fear of the Hispanic community in the eyes of our fellow Americans.
