Link: Stephen Barr - Disputing Citizenship's Role for Hispanics in Government Service - washingtonpost.com.
Federal employment reports have consistently described Hispanics "as underrepresented in the government compared to the civilian labor force."The Office of Personnel Management, in a report on fiscal 2005 employment patterns, said Hispanics make up 7.4 percent of the federal workforce, compared with 12.6 percent of the nation's labor force. But a study by the Government Accountability Office, the congressional auditing agency, questions whether such a gap exists.
