I found it funny that US Rep Loretta Sanchez found herself on the TSA’s watch list. Especially since she is on the committee that oversees their budget.
In immigration news, I would recommend: Tired of life in Limbo, immigrants risk it all - Florida about an illegal Brazilian couple in Florida purposefully turning themselves in to ask for leniency and two stories about the anti-immigration law’s effect in Hazleton, Penn(1 & 2)
In other news, an article out of Las Vegas about how the story of a politician’s sex scandal got completely different coverage (if any) from Spanish media, was something new for me. Plus check out Latina Lista’s post from today and the story of how non-profits are losing bilingual workers
In my picks, I would recommend listening to Sizing Up Utah’s Hispanic Vote
I lament the fact that only 24% of the 28,000 Latinos graduating in Florida next year will get a college education.
And finally, I was going to try and go to the Latin Grammys as I was granted Media Creds but I have decided not to go as they only gave me 2 business days to get there and arrange all that I would have to. Maybe next year, but I am slightly bummed.
