4th District Issues
Frustration over illegal immigration has become a staple in the news and throughout our local communities. I hope Congress and the Administration take the appropriate steps to curb illegal immigration; it is long overdue. While some of our national leaders are calling for broad guest-worker programs, ultimately leading to amnesty, I must share my staunch opposition.
Over the last several years, we have seen a massive surge of border crossings. If you want to be an American citizen you must do so in a way that conforms to existing American law. Those who come here legally and are interested in becoming citizens should be required to take steps to learn English.
I have taken a hard line on supporting stronger enforcement of our laws and increased protection of our borders. We must aid our law enforcement with the training and tools necessary to address the problem. We must remove the institutional incentives in place that attract illegal immigrants.
