The new executive director is a senior fellow at the Washington, D.C.-based
American Principles Project, an organization that advocates "for public policy solutions that respect and affirm: human life from conception to natural death; the union of one man and one woman as the definition of marriage; the freedom to practice and proclaim religion; authentic economic progress for working Americans; education in service of the comprehensive development of the person; and, the legacy of immigrants in contributing to the American story" according to its website.
"The position, [Alfonso Aguilar, executive director of the
American Principles Project's Latino Partnership] later told reporters, is "perhaps even worse" than Donald Trump's plan for dealing with people already in the country illegally.
He added that the
American Principles Project, a national conservative organization, along with one of its founders, added another $500,000 to oppose the initiative.
Stay away from those proposals that are bad policy," said Alfonso Aguilar, executive director of the
American Principles Project's Latino Partnership.
