GOP Lawmaker Who Wants Mandatory Church Attendance Warns Of ‘Browning Of America’
Racism and Christianity: Arizona  State Senator Sylvia Allen, who has previously advocated for mandatory  church attendance, warns GOP colleagues about the “browning of America.”
 Allen, a Republican lawmaker from Snowflake, Arizona, 
recently warned  her Republican colleagues that the United States is “going to look like  South American countries very quickly,” claiming that new immigrants  will not be able to “assimilate.”
 The GOP lawmaker made her remarks  during a July 15 event commemorating “Mormon Political Pioneers” at the  Arizona Republican Party headquarters in Phoenix.

 ‘The median age of a white woman is 43. The median age of a Hispanic  woman is 27. We are not reproducing ourselves, the birthrates… It’s  because of immigration.’

   Phoenix New Times obtained audio of Allen’s comments late last week, noting: 
 
During a rambling,  25-minute speech peppered with religious and autobiographical  references, Allen expressed a worldview that the founding principles of  the United States are under attack by feminists, secularists, and  immigrants.
 Allen’s discussion of assimilation  occurred near the end of her speech, following a reference to Dr. James  Johnson, a business professor at the University of North Carolina who  studies demographics.
