San Francisco Promotes Services for Illegal Immigrants/Aliens
By Lady Fingers | 04/04/08 | 11:09 AM EDT | 0 Comments
After reading Tomahawk's post about Miller's reaction to San Francisco's latest actions with regards to Illegal Aliens, I took a look at the San Francisco Chronicle, the website where you can read the whole article here.
Last evening on my way home from work I tuned in to listen to some entertainment on talk radio, you know, John and Ken? They had a fun segment going where they had found a bus company that would, for $10 transport someone from LA to San Francisco. So they were asking their listeners to sponsor sending local Illegal Aliens to San Francisco so Gavin Newsome could be happier and support the Illegal Aliens with all of his city services. They had dozens of callers offering hundreds of dollars to 'sponsor an illegal alien's travel to SF'.
What is most disturbing is that San Francisco is actually spending tax dollars to pay for a series of new television and radio commercials, billboards and bus shelter signs in San Francisco advertising the fact that the city by the bay is also a sanctuary city for Illegal Immigrants. The Ad campaign will cost $83,000, and will be produced in 5 languages! Brochures will be handed out at public buildings promising safe access to city services for the undocumented and a "don't ask - don't tell" policy when it comes to their residency status.
Additionally, the city's plan is that in August they will begin issuing municipal identification cards to city residents - whether or not they are in the US legally. San Francisco became a santuary city in 1989, and since then barred city employees from helping Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents with immigration investigations or arrests without a warrant.
It is San Francisco's FORMAL POLICY to NOT report illegal immigrants to federal immigration agents when they visit public health clinics or hospitals, enroll their children in school, report a crime or seek other city services OR APPLY FOR BENEFITS.
The city recently created a position for an "immigrants rights administrator" to work with city agencies so that employees understand the sanctuary city policy and how to better serve the illegal immigrant community.
"City Administrator Ed Lee called San Francisco's new sanctuary city ad campaign "not only the liberal thing to do, it's the responsible thing to do.""
Speculation is that Gavin Newsome plans to run for Governor, and in the wake of N.Y. Spitzer, and his replacement even with Gavin's record; with the liberal population in SF, it's probably doable. So how would you like to have Gavin Newsome for your next Governor? I wouldn't like it at all.
Perhaps someone has some statistics but I believe that most of Northern California is actually supported by Southern California taxwise. So perhaps we should let John and Ken and their Radio show get the ball rolling, send all the illegal aliens to Northern CA, then a fun idea would be to split CA into TWO state, Northern CA and Southern CA. Then we would have to beg Sacramento to get our own money back. You know, there is North Dakota and South Dakota, there is Virginia and West Virginia, there is North Carolina and South Carolina...perhaps California should start thinking about this.....
