GOP kicks Texas Latino Veterans in teeth ... over redistricting.
I just heard on NPR that Little Ricky Perry, true to the petulant, vindictive form of his predecessor Gov. Bu$h, cut all funding to the American GI Forum Veteran's Outreach Program in Texas in July. Why? The predominently Latino veterans organization opposed re-districting in Texas.

Perry is now ready to reinstate the funding. But already the American GI Forum has closed many of its Texas offices.

Oppose us and we will silence you! It is the BFEE way.

3. G.I. Forum was very visible at anti-redistricting rally in Austin.
Ram Chavez addressed the crowd. The GOP is doing everything it can to alienate as many people as possible.
