". . .they will not be judged by the color of their skin, butthe content of their character." - Dr. Martin L. King. Read the fax, shown below, sent to CA AsAm Assembly Members by Dr. Haibo Huang. It is reasoned, full of facts and yet emotionally stirring. " Dear AsAm Legislators in the California Assembly, Please vote NO to SCA5 in the Assembly. The senate passing of SCA5 with the support of all three AsAm senators had sent shock waves through the AsAm community across the nation, turning ordinary citizens into an army of political activists. . . . Do NOT underestimate the resolve of ordinary people. The day of reckoning will come this November. As a California resident, I will join in hand with millions across the nation, and with the AsAm voters in your districts, to make sure the AsAm politicians are accountable to their constituents. The days, when AsAm politicians can take the money and the votes from their community, and then do whatever that suit their personal ambitions, are over. We will see to it that such politicians be defeated in the next election cycle. If the Democratic Party leadership doesn�� bent on pushing forward SCA5, they will lose their Super Majority in the California legislature. The recent mayoral election in the City of San Diego will serve as a warning: a Republican candidate prevailed in an overwhelmingly Democrat city. SCA5 is a "Yellow Peril Act" , a 21st century version of the "Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882", aimed specifically to impose a quota-like ceiling on the AsAm students. . . . Therefore, there can be no illusion, no matter how SCA5 is sugar-coated, that it is a bill aimed squarely to limit the AsAm enrollment through a reverse ��acial preference��treatment, under an argument that "the college enrollment should reflect the population". Fortunately, such a "proportional representation" argument has been consistently rejected by the US Supreme Court in all precedent cases to be in violation of the "Equal Protection Clause" of the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution. . . . . SCA5 cannot hide under the disguise of "equal opportunity". In fact it is the antithesis of "equal opportunity" because it demands "equal outcomes" despite of "unequal qualifications and efforts". It is Communism in essence because all resources are to be divided equally, depriving the citizenry of any incentive to excel, dragging down the US competitiveness in the long run. . . . . Rewarding or penalize an individual based on his/her skin color is morally repugnant. . . . With your help, we shall overcome. Thank you for your attention. Dr. Haibo Huang
