To ensure that low-income minorities get taxpayer-subsidized housing Obama’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched a nationwide discrimination probe that,ironically,is focusing on an area where the overwhelming number of public housing residents are Latino and black.
The investigations are being conducted by the DOJ’s bloated civil rights division,which is headed by a renowned illegal immigration advocate,Thomas Perez,who once served as president of a taxpayer-funded group (Casa de Maryland) dedicated to helping illegal aliens.
This month the DOJ’s pro minority act du jour focuses on two cities—Lancaster and Palmdale—in Los Angeles County known as the Antelope Valley. Perez claims they discriminate against blacks and Latinos when it comes to providing federally-subsidized housing known as Section 8,even though 86 percent of the Section 8 recipients in both cities are minorities,according to the county commissioner,Michael Antonovich,who represents the area. Antonovich accuses Perez,who flew into the Antelope Valley a few days ago to formally announce the probe,of grandstanding.
At the heavily promoted Antelope Valley press conference Perez also announced that his agency has opened a related investigation into allegations of discriminatory policing by the law enforcement agency that patrols the area,the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department.
Under Perez’s leadership the DOJ has launched similar investigations of state and local law enforcement agencies throughout the country,including New York,Ohio,New Jersey,Pennsylvania,the District of Columbia and Louisiana. It has also created a secret department within the civil rights division,the National Origin Working Group,to monitor “discriminatory” laws passed by states and municipalities to control illegal immigration.
