Latino Caucus Urges Governor to Denounce Racist Campaign Tactics (Dec 13 2004 02:58 GMT) - Sacramento, CA- The California Latino Legislative Caucus urged the Governor this morning to publicly repudiate the recent anti-Latino campaign strategy funded by the California Republican Party and the Jobs Political Action Committee against various Members of the Latino Caucus and other Democratic candidates. “The campaign strategy utilized against various Latino candidates invoked an anti-Latino message not seen since Governor Pete Wilson’s anti-immigrant ads for Proposition 187,” said Senator Escutia (D-Norwalk), Chair, Latino Caucus. “It is shameful that the California Republican Party and JobsPAC utilized tactics of hate and fear that only serve to divide Californians based on race. I credit the voters who rejected these racist attacks and elected the best candidate to represent them.” One of the most offensive pieces, which were mailed to voters in Assembly District 31, during the last days of the election, portrays Assembly Member Juan Arambula (D-Fresno) against the background of a Mexican border crossing on one side with a background of day workers on the other side. |
