Romero, Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs; before the Florida Department of State's International Days 2000 Conference, Tallahassee, FL, February 23, 2000 Let me begin by noting what a pleasure it is to be back in Tallahassee. As many of you may know, I'm a proud Florida State University grad, prouder than ever this year, thanks to the Seminoles' come-from-behind win in the Sugar Bowl. What an excellent way for Florida to begin this new millennium. With this record of deep, consistent involvement in Latin America, those of you here with me today, and probably many other Floridians, know how far Latin America has come both politically and economically in the last two decades. You, and we in Washington, are so used now to dealing with these nations as democracies that are making great strides toward a truly modern and globalized economy, that it almost becomes easy to forget how far Latin America has come. To dramatize that, let's take a brief excursion into the past about twenty years back and visualize how things were in two contrasting countries at opposite ends of the region: El Salvador and Argentina. Twenty years ago, both were military dictatorships beset by civil conflict and a poor record on human rights. Both suffered from stagnant growth or no growth at all and numerous social and political upheavals.

International Security Response to Terrorism 24 March 2002 Secretary of State Urges Support for Trade-Benefits Legislation Says open markets and democracy are needed for growth in Latin America Regional trade agreements such as the lapsed Andean Trade Preference Act (ATPA) and the proposed Central American free-trade agreement are the key to economic growth and democracy in the Western Hemisphere, according to Secretary of State Colin Powell. "These kinds of agreements have been shown over the years to benefit the countries who enter into the agreements with us," Powell said. "And at the end of the day, they benefit American consumers; they benefit our economy. But more importantly, they help us push forward the values of democracy and free enterprise." Speaking to reporters March 24 aboard Air Force One en route to El Salvador, Powell said all the Andean leaders whom President Bush met the previous day in Lima, Peru, stressed that trade and investment constitute the best weapons against the illicit narcotics trade. "I hope the Senate will hear the message loud and clear that our national interest is served by good trading relations with these countries," Powell said. "We want them to stop growing coca. If we want them to move down a path of democracy, we must trade with them."

TESTIMONY OF JOHN ROGERS, DEPUTY DIRECTOR, U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, BEFORE THE HOUSE RESOURCES COMMITTEE, SUBCOMMITTEE ON FISHERIES, WILDLIFE AND OCEANS, ON H.R. 39, NEOTROPICAL MIGRATORY BIRD CONSERVATION ACT. FEBRUARY 11, 1999 I am pleased to be here to comment on H.R. 39, the Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Act, which will aid in the international conservation and management of neotropical migratory birds by supporting conservation programs and providing financial resources. The Administration supports the legislation, as it provides a mechanism for coordination and funding to promote the conservation of neotropical migratory birds and their habitats throughout Latin America, the Caribbean and North America. We acknowledge that other House members have introduced another bill. In addition, the Senate has their own version of this legislation which we could also support. We will be happy to work with the Subcommittee, other House members and the Senate to resolve the differences in the bills and to ensure that the final legislation serves the needs of neotropical migratory birds with the best program possible. We would like to thank Chairman Saxton of the Subcommittee and Chairman Young and Ranking Member Miller of the full Committee for co-sponsoring this important legislation. H.R. 39 incorporates many of the comments and suggestions the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) and Administration had provided to the Subcommittee last year.

www.puertorico-herald.org Tulsa World Pandering For Hispanic Votes In Spain by GEORGIE ANNE GEYER June 19, 2001 PARIS During President Bush's debut in Europe, the international press is focusing, not surprisingly, on the Kyoto treaty, missile defense and the meeting with the Russian president. But two other smaller events may be even more revealing of the administration's more worrisome propensities than those "big" issues. Remember how, when George W. was running for the presidency, he constantly averred that in foreign affairs he would above all honor relations with our proven allies? Remember the allusion to BillClinton sacrificing our relationship with Japan in order to woo communist China? We were sure that President Bush would never think of bending American interests in such a self-interested way. And yet, this trip opened in an unlikely place: not in any of the capital cities of America's allies, such as Great Britain, France or Germany, but in Madrid. Now, Madrid is a lovely city and Spain is a magnificent country, but they are on the peripheries of continental power; they hardly symbolize Europe today. But to be honest, the Bush White House did not pretend that they did. In fact, the White House was quite open about the foreign- policy oddity of opening President Bush's first trip to Europe in Spain. It was designed to woo American "Hispanic" voters.

Gary Locke. "Our experience tells us we, the Muslim and Arab community, will suffer, regardless of your good intentions," Hisham Farajallah, director of the Idriss Mosque in Northgate told the panel. The state Select Committee on Community Security, headed by state Rep. Chris Hurst, D-Enumclaw, met yesterday at the Port of Seattle offices on Alaskan Way to take public comment on anti-terrorism legislation proposed by Locke and state Attorney General Christine Gregoire. The proposed legislation includes the Anti-Terrorism Act, which defines and sets penalties for terrorist acts. It would also create the new crime of first-degree terrorism, in which someone dies as a result of a terrorist act. Conviction would be punishable by death.

Committee on Resources Subcommittee on Fisheries Conservation, Wildlife and Oceans Testimony Daniel P. Beard Senior Vice-President for Public Policy National Audubon Society Testimony Before the Subcommittee on Fisheries, Conservation, Wildlife and Oceans Committee on Resources U.S. House of Representatives H.R. 4517 "The Neotropical Migratory Bird Habitat Enhancement Act" September 17, 1998 Mr. Chairman, my name is Daniel Beard. I am Senior Vice President for Public Policy of the National Audubon Society. I appreciate the opportunity to testify to the Subcommittee on H.R. 4517, the "Neotropical Migratory Bird Habitat Enhancement Act." The National Audubon Society has nearly one million members and supporters throughout the Americas who are dedicated to the preservation and protection of birds, other wildlife and their habitat. Mr. Chairman, I am pleased to appear before you today in strong support of H.R. 4517, the "Neotropical Migratory Bird Habitat Enhancement Act." This legislation, plus H.R. 4302 introduced by Congressman Jim Greenwood, are major steps forward in our efforts to protect and enhance bird habitat in Latin America and the Caribbean. I want to compliment Chairman Young and Mr. Greenwood, for introducing these bills and giving this matter the important attention it deserves. The Neotropical Migratory Bird Habitat Enhancement Act of 1998 addresses the important need for protecting and enhancing populations of neotropical migratory birds, using effective and relatively inexpensive means.

Are they talking about just those Mexicans who choose to come to the United States to live? Some were already here when the western states became part of the United States. And what about African Americans? Most of them have never been to Africa! About 100 years ago we had people from all over Europe, all over the world that came to live here. Then they may have been called Irish/American, German/American or any number of /American groups, dictated only by the number of different countries they came from. Indeed, these groups have been coming to America since the 16th century. Now the descendents of these people are just called ‘‘Americans.’’ At what point do we get to be called just ‘‘American’’? Is Dick Van Dyke Dutch American? Is Rosie O’Donnell Irish American? Is Connie Chung Chinese American? I’ll bet that most of the people in this country have never been to the country of their ancestry. And what kind of name is Bush? I don’t remember hearing of any Native Indians with that name. Does this mean our President is part of some very small minority group?

November/December 2000 The 106th Congress has come to an end, bringing with it both celebration and disappointment. We cheer the allocation of $435 million in debt relief for the world's poorest nations, approval of most of the Hunger Relief Act, and reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act. Along with you, we worked hard to achieve these victories. Thank you for responding to our newsletters and Action Alerts. Our collective voices have made a difference! Unfortunately, our celebration is peppered with some disappointment. Billions in "aid" (90% of it military) have been designated to fight the so-called drug war in Colombia, US military spending is on the rise again, and the School of the Americas (SOA), though under a different banner, is still in operation. Blessings, New Name, Same Shame: Report on the School of the Americas The U.S. Army School of the Americas (SOA), located at Ft. Benning, GA, is a combat training school for Latin American soldiers. The SOA was established in Panama in 1946—to promote stability in the region. But its reputation for churning out despots soon earned it the nickname, "Escuela de Golpes" or "School of Coups." In 1984, the SOA was kicked out of Panama under terms of the Panama Canal Treaty, and a major Panamanian newspaper dubbed it "The School of Assassins." The name was well-earned and well-documented. SOA-trained soldiers have left a trail of blood and suffering in many countries.

Mexican War Post-Conquest World War II Chicano Movement ... Selected References A History of Mexican Americans in California: HISTORIC SITES Westminster School / Seventeenth Street School Westminster, Orange County Dedicated on September 6, 1935, the Westminster School in Orange County is a one-story complex, designed by J. E. Allison and constructed of stucco with a composition tile roof. The school building, which is now used as a community service center, is a landmark in the historic case of Mendez v. Westminster, which ended dejure school segregation of Mexicans in California's public schools. Separation of school children on the basis of race and nationality dated to an 1855 legislative decision that apportioned school funds on the basis of the number of White children, ages four to 18, in each county. As a result of this legislation, Blacks, Asians, and Indians were specifically denied admission to White schools by the 1860s. Although Blacks obtained the right to a "separate but equal" education during Reconstruction, and 20 years later, the right to send their children to mixed schools, Chinese and Indian children continued as late as 1945 (according to Section 8003 of the Education Code) to be specifically denied the right to attend such mixed schools, as long as separate schools were provided for their education. Ironically, however, the code did not mention the group most commonly segregated by 1945: children of Mexican descent. Segregation of Mexican children in public schools had kept pace with Mexican migration, a migration stimulated since the end of the nineteenth century by the availability of work on the railroads, the Mexican Revolution of 1910, the shortage of laborers in the United States during World War I, and the curtailment of European immigration by restrictive legislation in the 1920s. Mexican immigration and Mexican American migration were actively encouraged not only by the railroads but by California agribusiness, which needed cheap labor to develop the Imperial and San Joaquin valleys and the citrus belt around Los Angeles. As a result, between 1920 and 1930, California's Mexican and Mexican American population tripled, making these people the state's largest minority group, a ranking they still maintain.
