Capitol Fax Blog (Rich Miller):
Hmmm....
Wasn't the Department of Labor a participant in the raid of the Melrose Park police department?
[UPDATE: It was Al Sanchez of the Hispanic Democratic Organization. See Capitol Fax Blog.]
[UPDATE2: The Hispanic Democratic Organization is associated with Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley and is not active in Proviso Township as far as I know.]

The new Proviso HDO is run by Juan Ochoa in Proviso. (Jesse Martinez and company are the top Lieutenants)
It has a Maywood connection with Alfanza "the frog" McKinnor who fancies himself a "political consultant" Drop by is shop on 9th and Madison. The place is rampant with Latinos.

Ex-209 Board President Welch indicted by feds
Welch traded jobs at 209 for political work, favors: feds
June 23, 2007
BYStaff Reporters
Winning a janatorial job at 209 or promotion isn't supposed to depend on your politics.
But federal officials said Thursday that Chris Welch, a top and key leader in Gene Moore's,Ben Mazzullo's,Frank Pasqaule's and Ron Serpico's Democratic Organization, made sure those spoils went to political foot soldiers.
\If they hadn't worked on a campaign, they were asked to ante up to political piggy banks. Others got jobs, funded by taxpayers, as a reward for taking care of Welch's lawn, shoveling his snow or working on his house, prosecutors alleged.
This happened while Welch was 209 Board President from 2001 until 2007. He allegedly schemed with others, including Superintendent Stan Fields,Ben Mazzullo,Gene Moore,Frank Pasquale and Ron Serpico--who also were indicted Thursday -- to hand out promotions, jobs, raises or transfers in exchange for political work.
Charged with falsifying forms
During Welch's tenure as 209 Board President,Fields approved hiring hundreds of Gene Moore's democratic organization members who got jobs there and in other departments. The new charges allege that Welch,Fields and others falsified rating forms to benefit preferred campaign workers and that he fraudulently signed certifications indicating that jobs were granted on merit -- not political consideration.

There are hispanic janitors(making well over 40K), who don't speak English,working at Proviso schools. The hispanicwoman that is the head registrar at Proviso East is incompetent but we all know that she got her job through Eugene Moore.
