Should Americans support this bill?

I recieved this in an email.



"Representative Ruben Hinojosa (D-TX) introduced a bill that would
fund the National Council of La Raza – a pro-illegal immigrant group.
The bill, named the Hope Fund Act of 2007 (H.R. 1999), would allot $5
million to La Raza in 2008, and $10 million each year thereafter.
La Raza advocates the elimination of the U.S.-Mexico border, and
actively supports legislation that would grant amnesty to millions of
illegal immigrants currently residing within the United States. According to
its website, La Raza supports an immigration bill that would include:

A path to citizenship for the current illegal immigrant
population

The creation of new legal channels for future immigrant workers

A reduction of family immigration backlogs

Congress has no constitutional authority to finance any activist
group, let alone an anti-American one such as La Raza. They are trying to create authority to finance an activist group that supports elimination of the Mexico border."

Did you all know that federal Grants money already supports groups that support illegal immigrants? I found it by a fluke one day.

If we must have political pork shouldn't it be feeding and taking care of the needs of American citizens?
