Numerous cities in the region have non-compliance policies with the federal immigration authorities and have adopted other policies that accommodate the presence of increasing numbers of illegal residents, such as creating day-labor hiring centers, recognizing Mexican government-issued consular identity cards for official purposes, and issuing driver's licenses and official identity cards without regard to legal status.
In 1999, the Texas border city of El Cenizo, near Laredo, established Spanish as its official language and declared the town a ''safe haven'' for ''undocumented workers.'' City officials also warned that city employees cooperating with the U.S. Border Patrol would face dismissal. El Cenizo, a colonia chartered as a city only in 1989, had grown to a population of 8,000 by 1999, more than two-thirds of whom spoke little or no English.2
@creepr969 The U.S. shouldn't advertise itself as a place where "The American Dream" can be lived out if there's hundreds of communities that live in horrible standards of living. I suppose you could always take the attitude of "Let them rot in Mexico" though, if that's the level of compassion under which the majority of Americans seem to operate. You said the population was 8000 in the late 80's? Why is it under 4000 today?
So far, I've been the only one who has made it out of that shithole with a Ph.D from Texas A&M. Everybody there settles for less, they like and love the way they are: mostly every single household depends on food stamps and other type of gov't aid...what a shame!!
I can't help but think that they want, want, want, but nobody in El Cenizo will pay you a penny of tax money to get any services, poor is poor but here is the classic example of do it for me! I wish I could say we were dirt poor growing up, but we could not afford the dirt. And yet our yard was spotless and did what we could with what we had. We used to play in the streetor worked that day. Maybe Raul should have saved the money he played for his Tattoo to buy a soccer ball.
yea w.e you say racist. of course jumping to conclusions. he said there was no football field to play on he never talked about wanting a soccer ball dickhead.
nycolombian91 you are a real raciest, raciest bating cry baby Vagina faced, cant hear, cant write, no future, know nothing ass of a boy. Go grab your skirt and get out of the closet.
i can guarantee my future is probably 10x brighter then yours lol. cant hear cant write no future? you need to educate yourself my friend you sound like some ignorant redneck from the outskirts of some bum ass city.
Youre a bigot and a racist and therefore condemned by god and man to live a long and miserable life of toil and finely regret, I see youre plainly stupid, evil, and vile, youll get your just rewards, your kind always do.
