| The pilot project was initially launched in Mindanao where there is an
alarming increase in the number of victims of illegal recruitment as well as
complaints of unpaid money claims of OFWs. |
| A darling of liberals, the Legal Services Corp. - which once had Hillary on
its board - got into trouble again; one of its North Carolina affiliates was
heavily fined for violating the law.
North Carolina Farmworker Legal Services flouted a federal regulation
banning the use of LSC funds to assist aliens anywhere outside of the United
States; it was caught using federal and/or state tax money to help aliens in
Mexico who had yet to arrive in the United States.
For so violating federal law, N.C. Farmworkers Legal Services was fined
$17,050 - a sum equal to the amount the agency had spent in two weeks of trying
to illegally extend LSCs duties from representing the poor in America to
representing the poor abroad as well. (Who will pay the $17,050 fine is
unknown, but watchdogs need to make sure LSCs North Carolina umbrella group,
Legal Services of North Carolina, doesnt just use taxpayer money to pay its
fine.)
One good result - N.C. Farmworkers Legal Services, the LSC affiliat. |
| A friend of mine works for Utahs Division of Services for
Disabled Persons (DSPD). Theyre in the same suite as the
Division of Child and Family Service (DCFS). He says he has
absolutely no respect for the way the operate (biased,
illogical). One of his coworkers is a woman who, in her
own words, defected from DCFS because of what she sees
as unfair operating procedures. She (Ill call her Jane)
told my friend that when women called them asking for free
legal help, they were instructed to refer the women to Utah
Legal Services. |
| -Provide technical assistance and certifications as needed in relation to
licensed agencies or in illegal recruitment cases being assisted by the
volunteer organizations; and |
| My ex-wife went to them asking for free legal help. Because she
doesnt have to claim my child support as income, she looks poor
on paper so they provided her an attorney to help her pursue
false allegations of child abuse against me. |
