How can you watch something like this and not be moved?  Such passion, poise, and intelligence speaks volumes about her upbringing, doesn’t it?

Something tells me this is just the first of many public appearances by this young lady.

Invitations have been delivered to Ortiz’s office in Brownsville, and Hinojosa’s in McAllen.
 
Both offices stated that the Congressman would be read the contents as soon as he could be reached, and that we would have a definite reply “within seven days.”  That means next Monday – the day before the forum.

 HTP tried notifying Washington and sending faxes, etc… well over a week ago, and no responses.
 
The letters pretty much guarantee that the Congressman will be “safe” from screaming and  heavy confrontation.

WE WILL NOT CANCEL
