While it is true that there have been quotas on the number of Jewish students allowed in universities in the past (and unspoken quotas presently in some places), most "minority" groups don't see Jewish students as "minorities" to be allowed access for past discrimination. In fact, many Jewish students are denied entry in favor of "minorities" when there affirmative action. Why is that? It is time to STOP defining people by their race and nationality and religion. If we want to give chances to those who are disadvantaged, then lets do just that, without regard to their ethnic characteristics. Lets support improved facilities and education in disadvantaged areas. MOST Important, lets instill a culture f a DESIRE to LEARN and be productive-we have many models for this inn all communities Lets make language curricul important in the education system from the beginning. We need to start speaking each others language and they will go a long way to learning about and trusting each other. The Committee should be involved with educating non-Jews and Jews alike about the necessity of keeping religion out of government in the United States. Not every country need abide by this but it is essential that the US abide by it. Perhaps if the Latinos looked at the numebr of Muslims that are residing here they would see the importance of this factor as they, too, can be a disenfranchised religious group. Politics as usual is not going to work I do not support your current position vis a vis the affirmative action . I also do not support what I see as your "leave it alone" policy in regard to church /state in the hispanic community in an effort to align with this group. It will be a loser in the long run I think that the Committee is working at odds with iteself in supporting what has been deemed “affirmative action”.

I believe strongly that every American should have equal opportunity in education and employment, but giving preference to any group, regardless of race, cannot, in my opinion, be looked upon as being "equal opportunity". I may differ with the AJC and Mr. Sinensky in how best to solve the current immigration crisis and other social problems, but I will always stand with the Jewish people in opposing anti-semitism and their support for the nation of Israel and I support immigration, but only if the immigrant comes as millions, including my forefathers, have before; legally.
