Loretta Sanchez
California Democratic Rep. Loretta Sanchez is attracting national criticism for saying during a recent Spanish-language interview that “the Vietnamese” are trying to wrestle away her seat.
"The Vietnamese and the Republicans are, with an intensity, trying to take this seat from which we have done so much for our community — to take this seat and give it to this Van Tran, who is very anti-immigrant and very anti-Hispanic,” Sanchez said in an interview with Univision, according to a translation by The Orange County Register.
Tran, the Republican state assemblyman who’s running against Sanchez, is a Vietnamese-American. According to his campaign website, his family came to the United States in 1975, having been evacuated by the U.S. Army just before the fall of Saigon.
Tran’s campaign issued a statement in which it said that the Democrat’s “attack against immigrants and the Vietnamese community on national television is shocking. The 47th congressional district belongs to the people and not an individual ethnicity."
I just gave some ca$h to Van Tran (Kewl name BTW).
Please do the same.
Throw this repugnant woman to the curb.
Thanks to Kevin at Daily Ructions for reminding me about this.
