The NO on Prop 8 spot will begin airing Monday, Oct. 27, on Spanish language television stations throughout California.
"Voting no on Prop 8 is not just about gay rights," said America Ferrera. "It's about preserving the integrity of equal rights in this country. This is not about being gay or straight, it's about being American. Vote no on Prop 8."
"Family is very important to Latinos," said Tony Plana. "Prop 8 discriminates against families and everything we stand for. I encourage all Californians to vote NO on this divisive and unfair proposition."
"Like all Americans, Latinos have family members and friends who are gay and deserve the same rights all of us have," said Ana Ortiz. "Prop 8 would take away those rights and that's why we urge all Californians to vote NO."
"We are thrilled that these prominent actors are speaking directly to the Latino community," said Yvette Martinez, the political director of No on 8. "Proponents have targeted the Latino community with advertisements that continue to lie about Prop 8. We're so proud and so grateful to have America, Tony and Ana stand against discrimination and for fairness and equality."
Nearly every major paper in California has editorialized against Prop 8 stating that "It is not acceptable to impose these beliefs to all society and, much less, amend the California Constitution. We are against Proposition 8." (La Opinion), "it is only fair that it afford equal protection to all who choose to make loving lifelong commitments to one another. We recommend a "no" vote on Prop. 8." (Orange County Register) and "Fundamental rights are exactly that. They should neither wait for popular acceptance, nor be revoked because it is lacking." (Los Angeles Times).

In her new role with the global humanitarian organization, Ferrera will help champion the importance of education for children in marginalized communities in developing countries and the United States.

"I couldn't be more excited to support Save the Children in its effort to educate children around the world. When a child learns, the entire community benefits," said actress America Ferrera. "It's horrifying to think about the 72 million children who are not in school and may never have the opportunity to learn and grow in a safe environment. I believe that our world can become a much more productive and peaceful place when every child is given the opportunity to attend school."

"I feel so grateful for my own education, and I look forward to doing more to help Save the Children spread its message to as many communities around the world as possible," added Ferrera.

Some 72 million of the developing world's children - more than half girls - do not go to school, according to UNESCO. About 37 million of these children live in countries in armed conflict.

"We're delighted to have America Ferrera on board to help shine the spotlight on education and be a voice for millions of children around the world," said Charles MacCormack, president and CEO of Save the Children.

As Save the Children's Artist Ambassador, Ferrera will attend the Clinton Global Initiative's annual meeting in New York City this week, and will present a Clinton Global Citizen Award to an individual whose achievements have inspired change and made a positive impact on the world. The meeting brings together global leaders to address solutions to the world's most pressing challenges, including global education.

Save the Children has education programs in more than 50 countries, including the United States. Two years ago, the global organization launched Rewrite the Future - a global campaign that seeks to help children in conflict-affected countries get an education.

Save the Children (www.savethechildren.org) is the leading independent organization that creates lasting change for children in need in the United States and around the world. " HispanicTips is Essential Hispanic & Latino News & Information

OTHER STORIES IN THIS ISSUE:
David Archuleta on Top
David Archuleta, the first Hispanic contestant to make it as a finalist on American Idol, talks to PEOPLE en Espanol about his newfound fame, how he almost did not make it, and his plans for the future. "I've always imagined myself on stage," says Archuleta, who at 17-years-old, placed second, after David Cook, on the hit reality show series.
Even after millions of votes and his "Archie" fan club, he still remains humble. "I thought nobody liked to hear me sing," says Archuleta. However, his accomplishments are nothing short of a miracle. About a year and a half ago, Archuleta received medical treatment for paralysis in his vocal cords. "The doctor said there is somebody up there who wants him to sing because, medically speaking, he should not be able to," says Archuleta's father.
He's now gearing up for the American Idols Live! Tour 2008 and will also start recording his first album as a solo artist. "I feel a connection when I hear other people singing. If I can accomplish that, it would make me feel so good," says Archuleta. (Page 143)
