UnidosUS, previously operating under the name La Raza, is characterized by Influence Watch as a left-of-center Hispanic advocacy group with deep ties to progressive immigration activism.<\/p>\n<h2>A History of Open Borders Advocacy<\/h2>\n<p>UnidosUS has spent years championing policies designed to grant legal status to illegal aliens living in the United States. The organization threw its weight behind former President Barack Obama&#8217;s executive orders known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and Deferred Action for Parents of Americans, both of which sought to shield millions of illegal immigrants from deportation.<\/p>\n<p>The group also backed the so-called DREAM Act and has consistently supported federal, state, and local initiatives aimed at shielding illegal immigrants from enforcement, particularly those arriving from Mexico and Central America.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Janet Murgu\u00eda<\/strong>, president of UnidosUS, publicly attacked Trump&#8217;s 2017 decision to rescind DACA, calling it an effort to satisfy what she described as bigots within his political base.<\/p>\n<h2>Financial Ties to Biden Administration and George Soros<\/h2>\n<p>The organization&#8217;s ideological leanings are underscored by its financial backers. During Fiscal Years 2021 and 2022, the Biden administration funneled $35.9 million in federal contracts to UnidosUS. By contrast, both of Trump&#8217;s terms in office saw funding to the group slashed.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the Open Society Foundations, controlled by billionaire progressive megadonor George Soros, contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the UnidosUS Action Fund between 2019 and 2021.<\/p>\n<h2>Alignment with Black Lives Matter<\/h2>\n<p>UnidosUS has also publicly aligned itself with the Black Lives Matter movement. In the aftermath of George Floyd&#8217;s death in 2020, Murgu\u00eda penned statements declaring that her organization shared the same struggle, or <em>lucha<\/em>, as the Black Lives Matter cause.<\/p>\n<p>The poll in question was conducted between April 27 and May 14 and surveyed 3,000 registered voters nationwide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right\"><em>With information from <a href=\"https:\/\/breitbart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Breitbart News<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A poll showing Trump losing Latino support was funded by UnidosUS, a left-wing group that advocates for amnesty and has received millions from the Biden administration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":4322,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122],"tags":[196,1331,4675,4677,4676,209],"nfg_topic":[135],"class_list":["post-4323","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-donald-trump","tag-immigration-policy","tag-latino-voters","tag-poll-controversy","tag-unidosus","tag-united-states","nfg_topic-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4323","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4323"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4323\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4322"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4323"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4323"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4323"},{"taxonomy":"nfg_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsfire.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/nfg_topic?post=4323"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
