147 法案之严重后果

德州参议院準备提出之法案，针对来自中国大陆、 伊朗、 俄罗斯及北朝鲜之公民不能在德州购买土地之提案， 激起了华裔社区之巨大反对， 我们认為是一个澈头澈尾的反华行為，也是对我们同是黄色人种亚裔的挑战。

我们首先要感谢这块土地接纳了无数来自世界各地的移民， 他们在此落地生根 ，辛苦工作， 养儿育女 ，為美国社会做出了伟大之贡献。 我们始终崇尚美国宪法保障人权，人人平等之立国精神， 我们始终认為美国能够保持强大，其中最重要的是继续接纳全世界之优秀移民， 当然应该包括华裔在内。

此恶法如果通过， 将会严重影响华亚裔前来德州投资之意愿， 对地產経济及各行各业将有沉重之打击。

我们身為华亚裔之媒体代表， 要非常慎重地呼吁艾伯特州长千万不可签署此法案， 决不可把反中之情绪影响到华裔族群之生计。

我也要提醒其他亚裔族群， 不管你来自何处， 我们都有同样之肤色， 这种歧视是我们共同之难题和挑战， 不可不慎。

The Serious Consequences Of Bill 147

The Bill 147 in the Texas Senate that proposes to ban citizens from Mainland  China, North Korea, Iran and Russia from buying land in Texas has aroused great opposition from Chinese communities around the nation. We believe that it is a clear anti-Chinese act and a challenge to all other Asians who are of the same yellow race. 

First of all, we would like to thank this great American country for accepting countless immigrants from all over the world. They  have worked hard and have made great contributions to American society. We have always advocated for the spirit of the U.S. Constitution which guarantees human rights and states that everyone is equal. We also believe that the reason we can keep the country strong is because we are continuing to accept new immigrants from all over the world and, of course, that should include Chinese . 

As an Asian media organization, we want to urge Governor Abbott to not sign this bill. If it is signed into law, it will deeply affect the livelihoods of our entire community. 

We also want to remind all in the Asian community that we share the same skin color. This kind of discrimination will surely become our common problem.
