** Finding Solutions To The Latino Drop-Out Rate **
October 9th
La Raza has accepted an invitation to participate in an immigration debate with the College Republicans and the College Democrats. La Raza will send Jissell Martinez, one of its senior immigration policy analysts, whose research has focused on NAFTA, unauthorized immigration and the impacts on New Castle County, Delaware. Note from moderator: We will be fielding questions from the audience so review your organization's stances on US immigration with regards to socio-economic issues, US policy on immigration, solutions to current problems, as well as any other major issues you think students may think of. How does your group's position relate to the current Administration's position? Is building a larger fence between Mexico and the US a productive solution for illegal immigration between Mexico and the US, given that over 6 million of the 10 million illegal immigrants in the US came from Mexico? Should illegal immigrants who already live in the US be given a chance to earn citizenship, and why? Are illegal immigrants simply criminals who do not only break the law, but hurt their countrymen by "cutting the line" or are they just people who need to find work and a safe place to work and raise families? Do illegal immigrants put an excessive strain on government social programs, negatively impacting medical and educational programs throughout the country or do they have a positive affect on the economy?
