They claim all of North America for Mexico!

In California, League of United Latin American Citizens has adopted a
resolution to declare "California Del Norte" a sanctuary zone for
immigrants. The declaration urges the Mexican government to invoke its rights
under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo "to seek third‑nation neutral
arbitration of disputes concerning immigration laws and their
enforcement." We’ll have the story.

MEXIFORNIA – SHATTERING OF THE AMERICAN
DREAM:
MEXICO EXPORTS THEIR POOR TO LOOT US!
MEXIFORNIA
STUDY OF MEXICANS FEEDING
OFF THE AMERICAN GRAVY TRAIN:
Jose Herria emigrated illegally from Mexico to
Stockton, Calif., in 1997 to work as a fruit picker. He brought with him his
wife, Felipa, and three children, 19, 12 and 8 – all illegals. When Felipa gave
birth to her fourth child, daughter Flor, the family had what is referred to as
an "anchor baby" – an American citizen by birth who provided the
entire Silverio clan a ticket to remain in the U.S. permanently. But Flor was
born premature, spent three months in the neonatal incubator and cost the San
Joaquin Hospital more than $300,000. Meanwhile, oldest daughter Lourdes married
an illegal alien gave birth to a daughter, too. Her name is Esmeralda. And
Felipa had yet another child, Cristian. The two Silverio anchor babies generate
$1,000 per month in public welfare funding for the family. Flor gets $600 a
month for asthma. Healthy Cristian gets $400. While the Silverios earned
$18,000 last year picking fruit, they picked up another $12,000 for their two
"anchor babies." While President Bush says the U.S. needs more
"cheap labor" from south of the border to do jobs Americans aren't
willing to do, the case of the Silverios shows there are indeed uncalculated
costs involved in the importation of such labor – public support and uninsured
medical costs. In fact, the increasing number of illegal aliens coming into the
United States is forcing the closure of hospitals, spreading previously
vanquished diseases and threatening to destroy America's prized health-care
system, says a report in the spring issue of the Journal of American Physicians
and Surgeons. "The influx of illegal aliens has serious hidden medical
consequences," writes Madeleine Pelner Cosman, author of the report.
"We judge reality primarily by what we see. But what we do not see can be
more dangerous, more expensive, and more deadly than what is seen."
According to her study, 84 California hospitals are closing their doors as a
direct result of the rising number of illegal aliens and their non-reimbursed
tax on the system. "Anchor babies," the author writes, "born to
illegal aliens instantly qualify as citizens for welfare benefits and have
caused enormous rises in Medicaid costs and stipends under Supplemental
Security Income and Disability Income." In addition, the report says,
"many illegal aliens harbor fatal diseases that American medicine fought
and vanquished long ago, such as drug-resistant tuberculosis, malaria, leprosy,
plague, polio, dengue, and Chagas disease." While politicians often
mention there are 43 million without health insurance in this country, the
report estimates that at least 25 percent of those are illegal immigrants. The
figure could be as high as 50 percent. Not being insured does not mean they
don't get medical care. Under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor
Act of 1985, hospitals are obligated to treat the uninsured without
reimbursement. "Government imposes viciously stiff fines and penalties on
any physician and any hospital refusing to treat any patient that a zealous
prosecutor deems an emergency patient, even though the hospital or physician
screened and declared the patient's illness or injury non-emergency," says
the report. "But government pays neither hospital nor physician for
treatments. In addition to the fiscal attack on medical facilities and
personnel, EMTALA is a handy truncheon with which to pummel politically
unpopular physicians by falsely accusing them of violating EMTALA."
According to the report, between 1993 and 2003, 60 California hospitals closed
because half their services became unpaid. Another 24 California hospitals
verge on closure, the author writes. "American hospitals welcome 'anchor
babies,'" says the report. "Illegal alien women come to the hospital
in labor and drop their little anchors, each of whom pulls its illegal alien
mother, father, and siblings into permanent residency simply by being born
within our borders. Anchor babies are citizens, and instantly qualify for
public welfare aid: Between 300,000 and 350,000 anchor babies annually become
citizens because of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the State wherein
they reside." Among the organizations directing illegal aliens into America's
medical systems, according to the report, are the Ford Foundation-funded
Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, the National Immigration Law
Center, the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the American Bar
Association's Commission on Immigration Policy, Practice, and Pro Bono, the
Immigrant Legal Resource Center, the National Council of La Raza, George
Soros's Open Society Institute, the Migration Policy Institute, the National
Network for Immigration and Refugee Rights and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Because drug addiction and alcoholism are classified as diseases and
disabilities, the fiscal toll on the health-care system rises.
“So what about California? The
economic well-being of many metropolitan areas in the Golden State has been
sinking precipitously since 2006. This year, three California regions--Oakland,
Sacramento and San Bernardino-Riverside--have sunk down into the bottom 10 on the large cities list. That's a phenomenon we've never seen before--and never expected
to see.” FORBES
