The National Tequila Party is appalled and disgusted that GOP candidate Mitt Romney is only willing to allow our American DREAMer’s to adjust their legal status by serving in the military. However, last month in Iowa, Romney was singing a different tune when he promised Iowans that he said he would veto the DREAM Act. It is ironic that many DREAMers have been here since they were babies and that this country is the only country that they know. They have been pledging allegiance to our country and flag since they have been in grade school.
Romney’s message to the Latina/o community appears to be “I am willing to allow DREAMERS to fight for our country” at the same denying our American DREAMers access to a college education. What is wrong with Romney’s line of thinking? We at the National Tequila Party believe that is very unfortunate yet very significant that Romney is willing to risk our children’s lives while at the same time delegating our children to second-class citizenship by promising to veto the educational portion of the DREAM Act. What this tells us is that our children are good enough to fight and die for this country yet, they are not good enough to be educated.
Now, Romney with his back against the wall and finally recognizing that he does need the Latina/os vote, he comes courting. Conversely, Romney’s actions do not fool us because we all know who Romney’s friends are! Therefore, the National Tequila Party is calling out to all Latina/os that are in the open-primary states to go “Vote for anybody BUT Mitt Romney” and send a clear message to Romney “NO MAS”!

It's Not Just About Immigration
José Díaz-Balart, chief political analyst for Telemundo, had one important task during the September 7, 2011, Republican debate-to ask the candidates about immigration. Díaz-Balart asked his question, got his answer and was dismissed from the stage. The stereotype was fulfilled; a Latino asked one question and the one question was about immigration. With that box checked, the moderators and candidates were able to return to "non-Latino" issues.

Proposed Immigration Rule Change Could Open the Door for Many Family Members of U.S. Citizens
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced a new immigration rule on January 6, 2012 that could greatly improve the process for family members of U.S. citizens to obtain their green card. Once implemented, the new rule would allow non-citizen spouses to obtain residency without having to wait out a three or ten year ban that normally applies to immigrants who are out of status in the United States.

Pinon Canyon foes blast Army's plans for helicopter missions
Lately, ranchers and community leaders in southeastern Colorado are feeling a bit like the battle-weary Michael Corleone of The Godfather Part III. Every time you think you're out, they pull you back in -- "they" being the Pentagon planners seeking more intense use of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, a 235,000-acre training area for Fort Carson troops in the heart of the region that's long been a source of contention.
