Mexican Kids Cross Border Daily For Free U.S. Education

Posted: 15 Sep 2009 11:59 AM PDT

The superintendent of a Texas public school district has deployed staff members to a nearby border crossing to intercept hundreds of Mexican children who enter the U.S. daily to receive a free public education at one of his schools.

For years, Mexican children from nearby Ciudad Acuna have crossed a bridge north to attend public schools in Del Rio Texas as administrators and immigration officials looked the other way. Meanwhile U.S. taxpayers pick up the nearly $3 million annual tab to educate the Mexican kids whose parents have no regard for the nation's laws.

Finally, the new superintendent of the depleted district (Del Rio Consolidated Independent School District) is working to end the costly practice. He has sent district employees to monitor the border crossing that connects Del Rio with Mexico and inform Mexican parents that essentially the gravy train has come to an abrupt halt. 

The district has an enrollment of 10,232 students in 12 schools and more than 500 are believed to live south of the border. They used fake U.S. addresses to enroll illegally, according to district officials, and some walk over the border bridge while others simply have their parents drive them in vehicles with Mexican license plates. 

"I've seen van loads of kids with plates from Coahuila State (Mexico) pulling in front of the school," Del Rio Superintendent Kelt Cooper told a major news organization. "Everyone knows what is going on. It's real blatant.

Cooper decided to take action because immigration authorities recently submitted a report to the district revealing that about 540 school-age children cross the bridge every morning. Cooper dealt with a similar situation as the superintendant in the border town of Nogales Arizona where he once caught dozens of students who used the same vacant lot as a home address.

So far nearly 200 Del Rio students have been informed that they must proof residency to stay in school. In most cases parents were handed letters at the crossing bridge warning that their children will be expelled from school unless they immediately proof that they live in the United States. 

There are an estimated 1.5 million school-aged illegal immigrants in the United States and the government spends an estimated $12 billion annually to educate them. The biggest chunks are spent by California ($7.7 billion) and Texas ($3.9 billion), where the situation has become a public education crisis with no end in sight. The Lone Star State's public schools have seen a huge increase in illegal immigrant Hispanic students with dismal Mexican and Central American education histories that are contributing to an overall lowering of academic standards across the board.

Rangel Hides More Money

Posted: 15 Sep 2009 07:36 AM PDT

In the latest of many scandals involving the corrupt chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, rental income has been concealed on yet another one of his properties for nearly a decade, this time a building in his New York district. 

The same hometown newspaper that exposed Charles Rangel for failing to declare $75,000 in rental income on a Caribbean villa, reports that he has concealed eight years worth of rental income on a six-unit structure he owns in the Harlem area that he's represented in the U.S. House for three decades. 

From 1993 to 2000 the veteran Democrat lawmaker has reported no rental income on the property on federal financial disclosure forms even though tenants have paid rent to live there during that time. Over decades Rangel has selectively reported the property's income, from nothing to up to $50,000 in federal disclosure forms. 

It simply marks the latest of numerous violations in Rangel's storied political career. He is already under investigation for tax evasion, using his office to raise money from corporations with business before his congressional committee and accepting multiple rent control apartments in New York in violation of state and city regulations as well as House ethics rules.

Last month he was exposed for hiding more than half of his wealth by omitting between $647,000 and $1.38 million in assets on federal disclosure statements. Rangel only revealed the information because the House Ethics Committee launched an investigation into his many transgressions last fall and he feared the huge asset omission would be discovered in the course of the probe.

Earlier this month a major news agency reported that Rangel has made hefty campaign contributions to members of the House Ethics Committee charged with investigating him. Since his ethics probes began, the shady congressman has covertly given campaign donations to 119 members of congress, including three of the five Democrats investigating him. They include Kentucky's Ben Chandler, North Carolina's G.K. Butterfield and Vermont's Peter Welch.

The growing scandals and mounting legal problems have created a powerful chorus of one-time supporters calling for Rangel to resign as committee chair. Many insist that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi step up to the plate and yank him from the coveted position, but she refuses to remove her good friend or censure him publicly unless the House Ethics Committee—that he's been paying off—finds him guilty of misconduct.
