Cesar Chavez?!? seriously?
If you are trying to win the hearts of bill opponents, he is probably not a good example. Moreover right-wingers like digging up quotes from Cesar Chavez condemning illegal immigration: Chavez in Congress:
… when the farm workers strike and their strike is successful, the employers go to Mexico and have unlimited, unrestricted use of illegal alien strikebreakers to break the strike. And, for over 30 years, the Immigration and Naturalization Service has looked the other way and assisted in the strikebreaking. I do not remember one single instance in 30 years where the Immigration service has removed strikebreakers. … The employers use professional smugglers to recruit and transport human contraband across the Mexican border for the specific act of strikebreaking…
It's an odd choice, Ken.
