Encuesta: Casi 9 de 10 latinos participarán en censo EEUU Por HOPE YEN WASHINGTON, D.C., 1 de abril del 2010 (AP): Casi nueve de cada 10 hispanos señala que participará en el censo del 2010, de acuerdo con una nueva encuesta, la cual señaló que es más probable que los inmigrantes consideren que el conteo es bueno para su comunidad y que sus datos personales se mantendrán en la confidencialidad. El sondeo del Pew Hispanic Center, divulgado el jueves, parece mitigar las preocupaciones de que el descontento de los hispanos, ante el lento avance del gobierno hacia una reforma de inmigración, reducirá la participación en el censo de este año. La Coalición Nacional de Clérigos y Líderes Cristianos Latinos ha sugerido que los hispanos boicoteen el censo para protestar por la falta de progresos en materia de inmigración. Los hispanos, que representan casi 15% de la población nacional, tienden todavía a participar menos que otros grupos poblacionales en lo referente al envío de
formularios del censo. Pero la encuesta más reciente sugiere que esa participación mejoraría y que, contra lo que muchos piensan, lo más difícil no sería convencer a los inmigrantes temerosos, sino a los desencantados hispanos que nacieron en Estados Unidos. Los hallazgos surgen mientras que el 52% de los estadounidenses ha enviado ya sus formularios, de cara al “Día del Censo”, fijado el jueves 1 de abril. El director de la Oficina del Censo, Robert Groves, instó esta semana a varias regiones a agilizar su respuesta. Esas regiones incluyen a cinco estados con grandes proporciones de población indígena o de minorías, los cuales se muestran rezagados: Alaska, Nuevo México, Luisiana, Nueva York y Texas, cada uno con índices de participación de entre 41 y 46%. “Estamos haciendo caso omiso a la población latina nacida aquí”, dijo Arturo Vargas, director general de la Asociación Nacional de Funcionarios Latinos Electos y Nombrados, tras destacar que se ha
apreciado un patrón similar en el voto hispano. “Hay cierta percepción optimista que traen los inmigrantes a este país, mientras que la gente que ha estado aquí por generaciones tiene cierto sentimiento de decepción y pocas ganas de participar, ya sea por el ciclo de la pobreza, el desempleo o la discriminación. “Así que ése se vuelve nuestro mayor desafío, motivar a los nacidos aquí para que se involucren con la sociedad estadounidense”, añadió. Mark Hugo López, director asociado del Pew Hispanic Center, atribuyó las opiniones positivas de los inmigrantes sobre el censo en parte a los pasos decididos de varios grupos que los defienden y de medios en español _como la cadena Univision—para convencer a ese sector sobre la importancia del conteo poblacional. “Los hispanohablantes y los nacidos en el extranjero recibieron más probablemente los mensajes favorables al censo, que posiblemente influyeron más en que tengan un punto de vista positivo”, dijo López.
En total, alrededor del 85% de los hispanos dijo que ha enviado su formulario del censo o que definitivamente lo hará, por encima del 65% observado a comienzos de marzo. Pero entre los inmigrantes, el índice aumenta a 91%, en comparación con 78% de los hispanos nacidos en Estados Unidos. En el 2000, la participación por correo entre los hispanos fue de poco menos del 69%. Hubo disparidades similares cuando se preguntó a los hispanos sobre la relevancia del censo. Alrededor del 80% de los hispanos nacidos en el extranjero opinó que el censo es bueno para su comunidad, mencionando frecuentemente el principio de que cada persona debe ser contada o que el conteo ayuda a la financiación de las escuelas. Pero entre los hispanos nacidos en Estados Unidos, ese número cae al 57%. Además, los inmigrantes hispanos creen más frecuentemente en la promesa de la Oficina del Censo, acerca de que no compartirá los datos con
otras agencias federales, incluidas las autoridades. La proporción fue del 80%, en comparación con el 66% de los latinos nacidos en Estados Unidos. Las diferencias resultaron evidentes incluso cuando fue del doble la proporción de los inmigrantes hispanos que dijeron haber visto o escuchado algo que buscaba desalentar su participación, como la convocatoria reciente al boicot. Aún así, sólo el 16% de los hispanos en general reportó haber escuchado esos mensajes. El estudio fue realizado para el Pew Hispanic Center por SSRS/ ICR, una empresa i n v e s t i g a d o r a independiente que entrevistó a 1.003 adultos hispanos por teléfono celular o fijo, entre el 16 y el 25 de marzo.

Ohio groups fight antihealthoverhaul ballot push COLUMBUS, March 31, 2010 (AP): A coalition of health care and anti-poverty advocates says Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray should reject on technical grounds a ballot effort that seeks to nullify President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul in the state. The alliance wants Cordray to toss out the Liberty Council’s proposed November constitutional amendment. They argue the ballot description isn’t a fair and accurate reflection of the impact the amendment would have. Groups including the Universal Health Care Action Network of Ohio, Ohio Council of Churches, We Believe Ohio, and others signed the letter. The Liberty Council is among tea party groups around the nation that view the health care reforms as an intrusive overreach by the federal government. Cordray is to rule on their proposal this week.

ICE had made 181,000 arrests and deported 215,000 “illegals.” The Secretary remarked that detentions had increased by 6% over the same period compared to 2007, when George W. Bush was president, and deportations had increased by 25%. Later, DHS reported that deportations had increased 46% under the Obama Administration. These were activists’ complaints when they met with the president in the White House before the March 21, 2010 march in Washington. And this is why they were surprised when the president appeared to believe that his administration was primarily deporting criminals. By “coincidence,” the same day that the president met with Latino activists—and only 28 miles away—ICE’s “cowboys” conducted a pair of raids that resulted in the arrest of 29 humble restaurant employees. This is why no one should be shocked that some community leaders have labeled the current ICE memo scandal “treason,” that they say that the White House is engaging in doubletalk, that posters at demonstrations have shown John Morton’s face with slogans written over it, or that the Reform Immigration for America campaign is asking: Who’s in charge?

Stephen Kinnaird, who argued the case for Padilla to the Supreme Court, said the decision recognizes “the increased intertwining of criminal and immigration law.” “This should avert many of the tragedies that occur when lawful permanent residents are not advised that a guilty plea, even to minor criminal offenses, would result in their immediate deportation,” he said. Stevens said he doubted the decision will affect old plea bargains for immigrants. Twenty-one states and the District of Columbia already require their trial courts to advise defendants of possible immigration consequences of guilty pleas, Stevens said. Justice Samuel Alito and Chief Justice John Roberts concurred but said it was wrong to force criminal lawyers to attempt to explain what immigration consequence a criminal plea might bring. “A criminal defense attorney should not be required to provide advice on immigration law, a complex specialty that generally lies outside the scope of a criminal defense attorney’s expertise,” Alito said. Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas dissented, (Continued on Page 10)

Bynum’s interest in roots music was reawakened by hearing a song on the radio by country singer Steve Earle from the bluegrass album he recorded with the Del McCoury Band. “That song just knocked me out,” he said. “I love songwriting. It’s all about great songs.” His music is also a way to connect with his own Southern roots. “I can tell my kids about the way my parents lived through these songs,” he said. “It’s a unique way to keep in touch with your family background.”
