Taxpayer Funds For Radical-Leftist Group La Raza Skyrocket After Obama Nominates One Of Its Top Leaders To Powerful White House Post…
Surprised? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
A Judicial Watch investigation reveals that federal funding for a Mexican La Raza group that for years has raked in millions of taxpayer dollars has skyrocketed since one of its top officials got a job in the Obama White House.
The influential and politically-connected National Council of La Raza (NCLR) has long benefitted from Uncle Sam’s largess but the group has made a killing since Obama hired its senior vice president (Cecilia Muñoz) in 2009 to be his director of intergovernmental affairs.
Ignored by the mainstream media, Judicial Watch covered the appointment because the president issued a special “ethics waiver” to bring Muñoz aboard since it violated his own lobbyist ban. At the pro illegal immigration NCLR, Muñoz supervised all legislative and advocacy activities on the state and local levels and she was heavily involved in the congressional immigration battles that took place in the George W. Bush Administration.
She also brought in a steady flow of government cash that’s allowed the Washington D.C.-based group to expand nationwide and promote its leftist, open-borders agenda via a network of community organizations dedicated to serving Latinos.Among them are a variety of local groups that provide social services, housing counseling and farm worker assistance as well as publicly-funded charter schools that promote radical Chicano curriculums. Judicial Watch published a special report on this a few years ago.
This week a JW probe has uncovered details of the alarming increase in federal funding that these NCLR groups have received since Muñoz joined the Obama Administration. In fact, the government cash more than doubled the year Muñoz joined the White House, from $4.1 million to $11 million.
Not surprisingly, a big chunk of the money (60%) came from the Department of Labor, which is headed by a former California congresswoman (Hilda Solis) with close ties to the La Raza movement. Since Obama named her Labor Secretary, Solis has launched a nationwide campaign to protect illegal immigrant workers in the U.S. Just this week Solis penned declarations with Guatemala and Nicaragua to preserve the rights of their migrants.
The NCLR also received additional taxpayer dollars from other federal agencies in 2010, the JW probe found. The Department of Housing and Urban Development doled out $2.5 million for housing counseling, the Department of Education contributed nearly $800,000 and the Centers for Disease Control a quarter of a million.
Additionally, NCLR affiliates nationwide raked in tens of millions of government grant and recovery dollars last year thanks to the Muñoz factor. An offshoot called Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC) saw its federal funding nearly double to $18.3 million following Muñoz’ appointment.

What do you expect from the former ACORN employee and community agitator in the WH? Anyone that is allied against the US is OK. Anyone that embraces our values is not.
Will someone tell me how Obama gets his mitts on taxpayer money to divert to these illegals who shouldn’t even be in our country?
How does he get his mitts on any of our taxpayer money to give to all the America-hating, conservative-hating, taxpayer-hating, natural born Americans groups that are trying to take us down?
ACORN is still being funded after being defunded by Congress last year.
How many courts rulings has the Thug in the White House ignored?
Doesn’t this tell you all that even if Obama was impeached that Obama wouldn’t leave the White House?
Or if Obamacare was deemed unconstitutional by the SCOTUS that Obama and his Commie Regime would ignore them?
Obama and that fugly wife of his are going to have to be handcuffed to get out of Our House.
I’m sick of being pissed off and depressed everyday because of the Commie usurper in the White House!
How about you?
Most liberal money starts out as a tax on someone. It wealth that gets taken from someone against their will, given to government agency under the promise that the money is actually needed and is in no way a surplus, then a federal workers union donates it to their favorite liberal candidate.
Depending on your frame of reference, this could be seen has forcing Americans to make political donations against their will. Why shouldn’t Americans see every dollar that a federal workers union donates to a political candidate as an overpayment? Why shouldn’t that amount be subtracted from the amount that a union contract negotiator says is “absolutely necessary”?
We could practically devastate liberal funding of hyper-partisan “activists” by simply cutting taxes across the board, and by cutting the federal work force.

This dog and pony show is getting boring, when is the clowns in D.C. going to call Barum Baily Bros. Circus and make D.C. the greatest Circus on Earth.
Smiling thieves.
Sickofobama, I’m right there with you brother. We still live under the delusion that we are a free people. Our rule of law has been thrown out the window and none of our dear leaders are doing anything about it. Nero fiddles as Rome burns. And as we’ve seen by their ineffectiveness since last fall and in the mid-90′s, the Republicans aren’t any better than the rats.
Politics isn’t going to save us. It’s time to get down on our knees and beg God’s help. The devil is alive and well and laughing in our faces.
This isn’t cronism? This isn’t wrong? The TEA PARTY MOVEMENT better be ready because our taxpayer dollars continue to fund the LEFT re-election campaign!
Cowdude
The M.O. for the left is always the same:
Setup a huge bureaucracy to “take care of the people”, then tap into the money flow.
.
Taxpayer money for a group that aids and abets criminals. The environmental groups like Sierra and NRDC are funded by taxpayers too. They are reimbursed for bogus legal fees by the federal government. The house needs to defund all this political crap and if the senate and the administration refuse to budge, then so be it. Time for a show down.
@Sickofobama
>How about you?
same here.
All of the justification we need was put on paper almost 235 years ago.

“All of the justification we need was put on paper almost 235 years ago.”
Exactly! And we as a nation have done just fine for 235 years without all the illegal invaders and muslims who despise us! CUT OFF ALL funding to these groups!
obama is the face of terrorism int he usa
Sickofobama.
I’m right there too. Why can’t Congress stop giving these agencies money?
We hold the purse strings yet were letting all these crooks continue to bleed us dry.
Why is no one in Congress investigating any of these people?
Why are they so quite?
I blame them as much as Obama. We have the means of stopping it, yet we don’t and by we, I mean those we elected to office to represent us.
It’s bullshit. I don’t care if Hispanic illegals get mad and riot. Fuck them.
I don’t give a rat’s ass if Muslim Riot let them. I don’t care if Blacks riot because we want to impeach Obama the first black( not) president. Let them.
We have Swat and National Guard to stop the rioters and prison for them to cool off in before being sent back to their country of origin.
I’m fucking sick and tried of certain races given more privilege and money because they have a different skin tone and language then we do.
Fuck all this crap.
I’m ready to vote everyone out of Congress and the Senate and start over, these people do not represent us and haven’t for a long time.
The only thing I can be thankful when it comes to Obama is that more of this crap is coming out in the open.
Anyone question where the money went in the first stimulus package $786 Billion dollars. I would bet it went to the DNC for their reelection campaigns, every left wing organization with their hand out. Every enemy of the state and union organizations. This sub-human in the White House is a joke and we are the punch line.
There never is accountability in government spending We have an enemy in the White House and as someone stated previously he will not go easily. Even if he lost by 95% of the vote. I allow for a 5% idiocy rate.
We could practically devastate liberal funding of hyper-partisan “activists” by simply cutting taxes across the board, and by cutting the federal work force.

Which explains why libs insist on raising taxes instead of cutting them to bring in more revenue, a la Ronaldus Magnus.
Y’all are right. There’s no fathoming how the purse strings don’t get cut by the House.
Now there is a simple solution to avoid raising the debt ceiling, just cut government funding of La Raza and CAIR and any other racist organization. If they only serve a minority segment of the population than they don’t receive tax monies paid by the larger populace. What happened to the principle that no federal monies are alloted to groups who discriminate according to race, religion, sex, etc.? By the way, is there anybody in the Obama Administration who HASN’T needed an ethics waiver?
The taxpayer’s have been funding the radical left for decades, they’re called the Demorats and we pay for their upside down loopy policies out of our pockets. Now that the’ve bankrupted the middle class, they’ll rape the poor financially and tell them it’s good for them.
It’s has been obvious even before the 2008 election that Barack Hussein is a stealth terrorist. La Raza is just as evil as CAIR (as an arm of Hamas) and have a similar racist intent, in this case, mainly against whites. They, and associated groups Latino racist groups (like those infiltrating the school systems in SW states, in particular – ref. high school classes that promote the overthrow of the US government), are behind the erasure of the the border with Mexico, with the obvious intent to occupy these states (much like the “Palestinians ” want to occupy land in Israel). Beware. This was definitely behind the decision to put Sotomayor on the SCOTUS.
You’re right, Monica. These radical groups have been in play for decades. However, under Barack Hussein, these radicals have been given in high posts in and around the WH, and they are moving right now to destroy America at lightning speed. “Fast and Furious” was actually a legalized move to arm the terrorists.
Congress Asked To Pledge Respect To Latinos
Amid heated immigration debates, members of Congress are being asked to sign a pledge acknowledging the economic, civic and cultural contributions of Latinos and opposing “irresponsible and inflammatory rhetoric” that “dehumanizes” them.
The contract is part of the “Pledge for Respect” campaign launched this month by the politically-connected National Council of La Raza (NCLR), which bills itself as the largest Latino civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States. The influential Mexican group receives millions of federal tax dollars annually to promote its leftist, open-borders agenda and has hundreds of branches throughout the nation.
NCLR leaders regularly attend congressional hearings as well as White House meetings and President Obama hired one of the group’s top officials (Cecilia Munoz) to serve in his administration. The commander-in-chief even violated his own lobbyist ban to make Munoz director of intergovernmental affairs even though she supervised all legislative and advocacy activities on the state and local levels for the NCLR, which is headquartered in Washington D.C.
With that said, this isn’t merely a publicity stunt for the powerful NCLR, which is pushing the respect campaign as part of this year’s National Latino Advocacy Days. The idea is to reinforce that the Hispanic community is an integral part of the fabric of America, according to the group, which is also using the opportunity to denounce politicians who use Latinos to exploit xenophobia for political gain.
The contract also forces members of Congress to promise that they’ll meet with advocates and leaders from the Hispanic nonprofit (that would include the NCLR) and business communities to hear their perspective on the “issues.” That way they could find a common ground based on “shared values and interests.”
To launch its respect campaign the NCLR enlisted a Los Angeles hip-hop band named after the Aztec astrological symbol of the monkey (Ozomatli). In a public service ad, members of the musical group claim that some candidates for public office have called for landmines on the U.S.-Mexico border and microchips to be implanted in undocumented immigrants. Others have used “stereotypical and menacing images of Latinos in their campaign ads.”
The message goes on to say that elected officials and states have fashioned “extreme draconian” proposals against the immigrant and Latino communities, including the elimination of ethnic studies programs in public schools, forcing publicly-funded hospitals to ask for patients’ immigration status and stripping U.S. citizenship from children born to illegal aliens. “It’s time to tell Congress that we won’t stand for this anymore. We need to know who is with us and who is against us! “

Ah yes, La Raza rears it’s ugly head yet again. They so desperately want to use the Hispanic title for political gains, yet they use Amerindian imagery and culture to get it done. No wonder so many American’s think Hispanic is a “race”.
So, why can’t the TEA party be funded by our tax dollars? All conservative groups should file a discrimination suit against the government and demand to be equally funded retroactive to the very day that the govt. began funding the liberal, racist, anti-American groups!
Leftist keep insisting on a different set of rules for every different type of person in the world, but……..
THERE IS ONLY ONE TYPE OF HUMAN IN EXISTENCE!

Hilda Solis, Obama’s Latina Labor Secretary, carefully crafted a message attempting to hide the fact that the U.S. Department of Labor has changed from an American government agency that protects American laborers to one of an Organization with an exclusive agenda to protect illegal Latino workers. Of course, Solis thinks by adding politically correct jargon Americans are too dumb to notice her true intent:

Hypocritical government officials and ethnic advocacy groups, who so often decry racial profiling as an abuse, NEVER seem to have any problem with promoting racial profiling – just so long as the agenda is one of accommodation, service and protectionism. The NCLR does nothing but agitate for “Latinos” to be profiled for exclusive rights and privileges.
Zedillo Declares War on the U.S.
“I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders and that Mexican migrants are an important – a very important – part of it.” — Former Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo at the National Council of La Raza (The Race) Soiree, Chicago on July 23, 1997

F**k La Raza

F**k Obama
grayjohn – ditto!
‘Takers’ are what’s bleeding this country to death. All shapes, sizes, and forms. I’m sick to death of watching people use every little thing to get money off those that earned it. CA is drowning in debt, as are the states that have decided it’s better to have sanctuary cities and open employment for illegals. The only solution I can see is for a total bankruptcy of the country. We’re owned by the Chinese and invaded by people from every 3rd world hellhole you can name.
Every city/state is living under the delusion we still have money. Asking taxpayers to fund new parks, stadiums, public transit stations, city halls, schools, and the list goes on and on and on….like a new bond issue doesn’t cost the phantom ‘somebody’ anything.
La Raza is the tip of the iceberg – or possibly, the bird in the mine. They are clearly racist, but so are black colleges. It has to stop or we, as a nation, are doomed. When producers can no longer produce, how do the takers get their piece of the pie?
I’m sure all the self-loathing Whites out there are already tripping over themselves to come up with a justification for this.
La Raza = Latino Al Queda
WHAT AMERICANS HAVE TO DO IS ”RISE UP” ‘LOAD UP” EVERYONE NEWS WHAT THE HELL HE’S DOING, WE ALL KNOW HE’S ILLEGAL? WHAT ARE WE TO DO, SIT AND WATCH OBAMA TAKE DOWN ‘OUR AMERICA”, NO WAY…THOSE ASS HOLES IN CONGRESS & SENATE ARE UP TO NO GOOD, OTHER WISE THEY WOULD STAND UP FOR THEIR COUNTRY..HOW CAN THEY LOOK INTO THEIR FAMILIES FACE AT NIGHT, HOW CAN THEY LET THEIR OWN KIDS BE RULED THE OBAMA WAY…GOT NEWS FOR ALL THE WHITE MEN IN CONGRESS & SENATE, THEIR ASS WILL BE IN THE SAME BOAT AS WE WHITE PEOPLE..YOU EITHER RISE OR FALL ………..GOD BLESS ALL, GOD BLESS OUR USA.
So now Obama supports La Raza (actually started by nominating Card Carrying La Raza Member Sonia Sotomeyer to the Supreme Court). The Group dedicated to taking all the Mexico Border states they say was Stolen from them by the Evil Americans and restoring them back to Mexico by Any Means Necessary. No wonder Obama and Eric Holder are suing the Border States by virtue of the U.N.

Every f*cking day with this administration… ignore laws, ignore publicly repeated position statements, ignore the majority opinion of the citizenry, waste money, waste more money, and let’s not forget to line pockets before wasting trillions more of money that doesn’t exist.
How many truckloads of this sh*t are we supposed to eat? This is fast track bullsh*t to a bad, bad end….
I am really annoyed with the clueless dumbf*cks that put this guy in office, especially the ones that (admittedly) voted out of white guilt. F*ck white guilt. I have none and know nobody that does. After 6 decades of payments, I am done.
