Surely with this new crisis of the virus, already there are groups who blame the immigrants. For them the immigrants are guilty of any evil that flogs us, and this crisis is not different in this sense. But what is quite disappointing is the silence of many groups who advocate the immigrants, that up to the today sun he has not said I do not even chirp on the matter.
And speaking about strange things. A coalition of Hispanic religious groups keeps on insisting that the immigrants should not take part in the Census of the next year until there is no integral migratory reform. These religious say that it is the only way that the politicians him pay attention to the community and to the topic. Most of Hispanic groups immediately denounced this strategy of the religious ones, saying that they would have results opposite to what they wanted.

Less that he needs the Hispanic community it is not to take part in the Census, the count every 10 years of the population of the country. The count includes all the residents, legal or not, and the funds quantity determines for the whole series of governmental programs so much at local level that national. The count of 2000 left out more than one million Hispanics, and Hispanic groups they are afraid that this strategy on the part of the religious ones is going to leave out more people. There is already a little of movement in the topic of the immigration – with the White House saying that they will go I finish or na meeting the next month with groups who advocate the immigrants – and boycotting a count that he benefits to the community certainly has not any sense.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court considers a case of a school district in Arizona that should affect the rest of the country. The district of the frontier city of Walnuts wants to limit funds for the ensign of English. The district says that it is not necessary in these times of economic difficulty using any more funds because the current programs – according to the state – are working well. Several years the English instructional programs in Arizona it has been down federal care for complaints of Hispanic parents who have said the state had not paid enough attention to teaching English to his children. The state of Arizona obviously does not agree, and now the Supreme Court will determine if the federal government should interfere in spite of watching state education programs. One waits for a decision this summer. And it continues in this federal capital interest in the topic of Cuba. Since the president Obama was raising restrictions of trips and remittances mailing on the part of Cuban Americans to his relatives in Cuba, one speaks about more changes in the American politics towards the island. The current president of Cuba Raúl Castro – Fidel's brother – said that it was ready to talk with Washington of any topic, including human rights and political prisoners, but his older brother says that not and there it stays. The State Department Hillary Clinton says that yes he will talk with Cuba but only if human rights and other polemic topics are included. Speaking before a congressional committee, Clinton said that the administration Obama will keep on trying to speak with Cuba in search of a political change in the island.

For his part, the Cuban government says that it has the United States to do the first step, and they affirm that raising the sequestration that the American government supports against Cuba would be a good step.
