I support the Petition before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights - Oswaldo Marcelo Lucero y Otros, P-1506-08, submitted by LATINOJUSTICE PRLDEF and Co-Petitioners condemning the United States for its failure to adequately protect its Latino residents.

I urge that the Department of State, the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security address the allegations made in the petition to secure greater protection for all residents of the United States and further the well-being of our entire community. I believe that the United States must do everything it can to protect against a climate that fosters anti-Latino and anti-immigrant sentiment.
