How To: Food Stamps in Four Hours |
2006-10-14 |
Food-Stamp Program Finally Speaks Their Language KMEX helps an effort to get Latino immigrants to apply for food stamps. An O.C. group takes it a step further and offers a class on how to do it. Though it goes against the conventional wisdom of anti-illegal immigration supporters, those who enroll the poor in the federal food stamp program say they've struggled for years to get immigrant Latino families signed up. Now a Spanish-language news report and television ad campaign have spurred thousands of immigrants in Orange County over the last several weeks to contact a nonprofit organization that offers a Spanish-language class called "Food Stamps in Four Hours." The stream of immigrants contrasts sharply with what was going on just a few months ago when only a handful of immigrants would attend the free course. The news report and ads were heard throughout Southern California, but those who responded in Orange County were directed to a nonprofit organization. Most other callers to the toll-free number were directed to county offices. |

#4 Why wouldn't hordes of Mexicans take advantage of free money if Americans are stupid enough to offer it to them? Wouldn't Americans take advantage of Mexicans if they offered free hotel and booze in Cancun? |

#3 This is just great. I think LA Slimes pointed out that Santa Ana is now 80% Mex. All from one state of Mexico. They discriminate against other Mexicans from other areas. Basically all signs in downtown now in Spanish. And they're wondering why their city tax revenue is dropping so rapidly. I guess all OC is going to follow . |

#2 The agreement led Mexican Consul Luis Miguel Ortiz Haro to tout the food stamp program on Univision's KMEX Channel 34 six weeks ago. Fucking leeches. Mexico is actively encouraging their illegals to take advantage here. He should be declared non grata and shipped home. Build teh fence. Faster |
