The ':^ur days of hearings were convened to assess the nation's ability to respond adequately to the changes in domestic labor markets, projected employment opportunities, increased international trade competition, and projected skill deficits in the labor force through the year 2000. The testimony showed that this nation must use its collective resources to invest in the technical competency and intellectual capacity of its people. Economists, labor industry experts, academicians, local government officials, and representatives from varied public interest groups had one principal concern: that the employment prospects of a large share of the future labor force are seriously threatened with too few and inadequate training opportunities, a decline in low-skilled jobs, illiteracy, criminal activity, drugs, and a growing underclass.

    WORKING PAPER NO. 10 CHICANOS, NAFTA, AND US -MEXICO RELATIONS: A 1988 -1993 CHRONOLOGY Patricia H. Hamm Center for Research on Latinos in a Global Society University of California, Irvine 1996 Research for this project was funded by the University of California Office of the President through the UC Committee on Latino Research. (c) 1997 Regents of the University of California and the Center for Research on Latinos in a Global Society. ABOUT THE CENTER FOR RESEARCH ON LATINOS IN A GLO BAL SOCIETY The goal of the Center for Research on Latinos in a Global Society is two-fold: to examine the emerging role of Latinos as actors in global events (economic, political, and cultural) and to promote Latino scholarship, enhance the quality of research in Latino studies, provide a forum for intellectual exchange, facilitate the exchange of scholars, disseminate research findings, and promote the participation of graduate students in research on Latino issues. In addition, we anticipate that the research conducted by the Center’s affiliated researchers will help guide policy makers in their decisions concerning a society with a growing Latino presence. California has become ethnically and linguistically more diverse than many countries in the wo rld – over a hundred languages are spoken in the public schools of Southern California alone. The research undertaken supported by the Center is expected to make a contribution towards the understanding of cultural, social, and political dimensions of demographic change such as that which has been occuring in California. Although this research will focus on the population of Latinos within California and the United States, it shall do so in the context of the U.S.

Washington, DC 20036 Phone: 202.785.1670 Fax: 202.776 .1792 NATIONAL COUNCIL OF LA RA2A www.nclr.org Janet Murguia, President August 15, 2007 Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System Attention: Jennifer J. Jackson, Secretary 20th Street and Constitution Avenue Washington, DC 20551 RE: Docket No. OP-1288 Dear Members of the Board: On behalf of the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), the largest Latino civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, I urge the Federal Reserve to use its rulemaking authority to curb abusive lending in the mortgage market. For years, NCLR has been warning policymakers that the mortgage market does not serve Latino homebuyers and homeowners effectively. Latinos, like many minorities, rely heavily on the equity in their home to serve as their financial safety net. Market inefficiencies leave Latinos, immigrants, and other underserved communities vulnerable to lending abuse. If gone unchecked, unethical lending practices will erode the financial security of millions of hardworking American families. NCLR has a long history in the financial services field. For more than two decades, NCLR has actively engaged in relevant public policy issues such as preserving and strengthening the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) and the Home Ownership Equity Protection Act (HOEPA), supporting strong fair housing and fair lending laws, increasing access to financial services among low-income people, and promoting homeownership in the Latino community, hi addition to its policy and research work, NCLR has been helping Latino families become homeowners for the past decade by funding and training housing counseling agencies.
