NLA...The issue is not all " immigrant issues", the issue I addressed
specifically is whether or not people without citizenship should be able
to contribute $$ to U.S. campaigns. This is not "learning" about
citizenship. Few immigrants, at least the esl population we serve can afford
to contribute to campaign..but that is not the issue either. The privileges
of citizenship should be afforded to those with citizenship.Our
responsibility is to teach what the privileges of citizenship are. Again, the
view of one advocate who has been in the process a long time...Esl classes
and citizenship classes are provided in the adult education legislation.
We should not encourage other legislation to duplicate the same activity.
