Rep. Jim Kolbe breaks silence on camping trip inquiry
Rep. Jim Kolbe breaks silence on camping trip inquiry
Kolbe breaks silence on camping trip inquiry
Arizona Congressman Jim Kolbe breaks his silence about the inquiry into a 1996 camping trip.
A trip he took with two former, male pages and others.
The Justice Department opened an inquiry about the Grand Canyon trip after a complaint was filed at the U.S. Attorney's office in Phoenix two weeks ago.
The inquiry was initiated a few weeks after Kolbe's name was brought up in connection with the congressional page scandal, involving former Congressman Mark Foley.
Foley resigned last month after his racy emails to young, male pages surfaced.
A page, concerned about alleged inappropriate emails from Foley, visited Kolbe's office in either 2001 or 2002.
Kolbe claims he never read the emails or knew of their content and referred the matter to the house clerk.
A complaint was given to the Phoenix office but it's not clear if it accused Kolbe of inappropriate behavior on the Grand Canyon trip.
For weeks, Kolbe has been out of the country and speaking only through his office until Wednesday.
Congressman Kolbe spoke very briefly to the media Wednesday about the inquiry but his message was clear, "I didn't do anything wrong."
He said, "I know there are a number of inquiries that are underway and we are cooperating fully with all those inquiries and I'm sure at the end of the time it will show that we've acted appropriately and did the exactly right thing."
The justice department is looking into a complaint about a 1996 camping trip Congressman Kolbe took with two 17 year old boys, both former pages, along with his sister, staff members, and park employees.
There are conflicting details about what went on.
NBC news interviewed a source who claimed to be "uncomfortable" with Kolbe's attention to one of the pages. The page in question told NBC he didn't want to get into the details.
But a park official and the other page say they didn't see anything inappropriate.
Kolbe said, "It's certainly not fun, there's no question about that and we didn't do anything wrong and I'm think that'll be demonstrated at the end."
Kolbe wasn't willing to discuss former colleague Mark Foley, who's under investigation for sending inappropriate emails to pages.
Kolbe said, "It's not appropriate for me to be get into talking about all the individual things nothing inappropriate was done and I'm sure that will be demonstrated in the end."
The House Ethics committee is also looking into the camping trip.
As for Foley, News 4 learned Wednesday that he checked into the Sierra Tucson treatment facility on October 1st.
Kolbe says he wasn't aware that Foley was in town, Tucson, and has no plans to visit him.

North American Union to Replace USA?
North American Union to Replace USA?
by Jerome R. Corsi Posted May 19, 2006
President Bush is pursuing a globalist agenda to create a North American Union, effectively erasing our borders with both Mexico and Canada. This was the hidden agenda behind the Bush administration’s true open borders policy.
Secretly, the Bush administration is pursuing a policy to expand NAFTA politically, setting the stage for a North American Union designed to encompass the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. What the Bush administration truly wants is the free, unimpeded movement of people across open borders with Mexico and Canada.
President Bush intends to abrogate U.S. sovereignty to the North American Union, a new economic and political entity which the President is quietly forming, much as the European Union has formed.
The blueprint President Bush is following was laid out in a 2005 report entitled “Building a North American Community” published by the left-of-center Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). The CFR report connects the dots between the Bush administration’s actual policy on illegal immigration and the drive to create the North American Union:
At their meeting in Waco, Texas, at the end of March 2005, U.S. President George W. Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin committed their governments to a path of cooperation and joint action. We welcome this important development and offer this report to add urgency and specific recommendations to strengthen their efforts.
What is the plan? Simple, erase the borders. The plan is contained in a “Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America” little noticed when President Bush and President Fox created it in March 2005:
In March 2005, the leaders of Canada, Mexico, and the United States adopted a Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP), establishing ministerial-level working groups to address key security and economic issues facing North America and setting a short deadline for reporting progress back to their governments. President Bush described the significance of the SPP as putting forward a common commitment “to markets and democracy, freedom and trade, and mutual prosperity and security.” The policy framework articulated by the three leaders is a significant commitment that will benefit from broad discussion and advice. The Task Force is pleased to provide specific advice on how the partnership can be pursued and realized. To that end, the Task Force proposes the creation by 2010 of a North American community to enhance security, prosperity, and opportunity. We propose a community based on the principle affirmed in the March 2005 Joint Statement of the three leaders that “our security and prosperity are mutually dependent and complementary.” Its boundaries will be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter within which the movement of people, products, and capital will be legal, orderly and safe. Its goal will be to guarantee a free, secure, just, and prosperous North America.
The perspective of the CFR report allows us to see President Bush’s speech to the nation as nothing more than public relations posturing and window dressing. No wonder President Vincente Fox called President Bush in a panic after the speech. How could the President go back on his word to Mexico by actually securing our border? Not to worry, President Bush reassured President Fox. The National Guard on the border were only temporary, meant to last only as long until the public forgets about the issue, as has always been the case in the past.
The North American Union plan, which Vincente Fox has every reason to presume President Bush is still following, calls for the only border to be around the North American Union — not between any of these countries. Or, as the CFR report stated:
The three governments should commit themselves to the long-term goal of dramatically diminishing the need for the current intensity of the governments’ physical control of cross-border traffic, travel, and trade within North America. A long-term goal for a North American border action plan should be joint screening of travelers from third countries at their first point of entry into North America and the elimination of most controls over the temporary movement of these travelers within North America.
Discovering connections like this between the CFR recommendations and Bush administration policy gives credence to the argument that President Bush favors amnesty and open borders, as he originally said. Moreover, President Bush most likely continues to consider groups such as the Minuteman Project to be “vigilantes,” as he has also said in response to a reporter’s question during the March 2005 meeting with President Fox.
Why doesn’t President Bush just tell the truth? His secret agenda is to dissolve the United States of America into the North American Union. The administration has no intent to secure the border, or to enforce rigorously existing immigration laws. Securing our border with Mexico is evidently one of the jobs President Bush just won’t do. If a fence is going to be built on our border with Mexico, evidently the Minuteman Project is going to have to build the fence themselves. Will President Bush protect America’s sovereignty, or is this too a job the Minuteman Project will have to do for him? see more at………………

Jury: Wal-Mart to pay workers $78M-plus
PHILADELPHIA - Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's biggest retailer, must pay at least $78 million for violating Pennsylvania state labor laws by forcing employees to work through rest breaks and off the clock, a jury said Friday.
Michael Donovan, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, had asked
the jury for at least that amount for what he said were
missed or shortened breaks, or time employees worked off
the clock.
The class-action suit involves 187,000 current and former employees who worked at Wal-Mart and Sam's Clubs in Pennsylvania from March 1998 through May of this year.
The Common Pleas Court jury found Thursday that Wal-Mart violated state labor laws.
Lead plaintiff Dolores Hummel, who worked at a Sam's
Club in Reading from 1992-2002, charged in her suit
that she had to work through breaks and after quitting
time to meet work demands in the bakery. She said she
worked eight to 12 unpaid hours a month, on average,
to meet work demands.
"One of Wal-Mart's undisclosed secrets for its
profitability is its creation and implementation of
a system that encourages off-the-clock work for its
hourly employees ..." Hummel said in her suit, which
was filed in 2002.
The plaintiffs used electronic evidence, such as systems
that show when employees are signed on to cash
registers
and other machines, to help win class certification
during several days of hearings last year.
Wal-Mart had a corporate policy that gives hourly
employees in Pennsylvania one paid 15-minute break
during a shift of at least three hours and two such
breaks, plus an unpaid 30-minute meal break, on a
shift of at least six hours.

McCain backs Hayworth but gets grief for endorsing Minuteman Graf
McCain backs Hayworth but gets grief for endorsing Minuteman Graf
Sen. John McCain has endorsed Scottsdale Congressman J.D. Hayworth despite a strong disagreement between the two Republicans on illegal immigration. The endorsement will
help the conservative Hayworth with independents and
moderates in a key congressional contest.
The move comes after McCain endorsed Tucson conservative congressional candidate Randy Graf in another Arizona race.
The Graf endorsement is earning McCain criticism from
Democrats who say the senator is selling out to the
Republican Party's right-wing to gain favor for a 2008 presidential run. Democrats point out that Graf is
supported by some ultra-conservatives.
The GOP senator cited Hayworth's support for
business-backed tax cuts and national security
and work for Indian tribes in his endorsement.
He did not mention border security or immigration.
Hayworth favors a security-first approach and opposes
a guest worker program favored by McCain, President
Bush and business groups. McCain supports a more
moderate approach on immigration including a
legal path for some illegal immigrants already in
the U.S.
Hayworth faces a tough election challenge from
former Tempe Mayor and Democratic state Sen.
Harry Mitchell. Mitchell favors a federal guest worker plan.
Hayworth and Mitchell are seeking to represent
a U.S. House seat that includes Tempe,
Scottsdale, Fountain Hills and southeastern
portions of Phoenix. The Hayworth-Mitchell
contest is garnering national attention and
could determine which party controls Congress.
Graf, like Hayworth, opposes the guest worker plan
sponsored by McCain and Kolbe. Graf is also a
member of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, a
conservative, volunteer group that patrols
the border and is very critical of McCain's
approach to illegal immigration.
Democrats are hoping former state Sen. Gabrielle
Giffords can win the open Kolbe seat. The Arizona
Democratic Party went after McCain for his
backing of Graf saying the GOP senator is looking
to appease the GOP's far right-wing.
"It's sad when John McCain, who has become an icon
on the strength of his convictions, throws those
ideals out the window in order to curry weight
with the extreme wing of his party," said Arizona
Democratic Party Chairman and Director David Waid.
McCain is expected to announce a second presidential
run after the November elections. He has been
reaching out to conservatives, but has had tense
relations with social conservatives and backers
of President Bush.

did't both Senator Kyl and John Mccain work against Prop 200 ?
ignoring the will of the citizens of Arizona
Despite a huge effort by political leadership on both sides of the aisle to defeat it, the electorate passed Proposition 200 with 56 percent of voters voting in the affirmative. Proving that immigration is an "elite vs. public" issue rather than a "right vs. left" issue due to the fact that the wealthy are more likely to benefit from increases in cheap labor while the middle class and the poor view cheap illegal immigration labor as a threat to their livelihood, the opposition to Prop. 200 was made up of a bipartisan group of elites. Senator John McCain (R), Senator John Kyl (R), Governor Janet Napolitano (D), the Arizona Republican Party, the Arizona Democratic Party, the Green Party, the Libertarian Party, the AFL-CIO, and other bi-partisan elected officials and organizations were all opposed to Protect Arizona Now. [[1]] These groups spent hundreds of thousands of dollars campaigning against the will of the public.

ARIZONA SENDS OUT-OF-TOUCH DC A MESSAGE: "DEFEND OUR BORDERS OR LOSE ELECTIONS!"
Arizona sends out-of-touch DC a message: "defend our borders or lose elections!"
"Minutemen will make up every dime Randy doesn't get from DC!"
Minuteman Civil Defense Corps founder Chris Simcox
tonight hailed Randy Graf's Republican Primary victory
as a "message to our out-of-touch politicians in Washington DC - defend our borders or be defeated at the polls.
It's that simple."
Simcox's comments came on the heels of what appears
to be a 43-37 Graf win over a liberal candidate
endorsed and heavily funded by the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and pro-illegal alien
amnesty groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Minuteman Civil Defense Corps PAC spent slightly over
$40,000 for Independent Expenditures in support of
Graf. MCDC PAC was the only entity that conducted
Independent Expenditures in this contest.
The PAC aired a heavy schedule on cable as well
as 11 top Tucson and 5 top Cochise County radio stations.
Simcox exulted over the small PAC's defeat of the
"powerful" NRCC, which backed Graf's liberal opponent
with a record of supporting open borders and illegal immigration.
"Out of touch so-called "professionals" in Washington DC actually think that people like Randy Graf who are
committed to putting our national security ahead of special interest campaign dollars and corporate money are
"weak" candidates," Simcox said. "I disagree and
so did the hundreds of Minutemen who rallied to
our effort to fund this Independent Expenditure
that helped put Randy over the top."
"Now it's time for Republicans to unite to ensure
that Randy Graf beats the ultra-liberal pro-amnesty
Democratic candidate in November."
MINUTEMEN TO REPLACE "LOST" NRCC FUNDING FOR GRAF
Simcox said he has heard that Graf will be denied
support by the national Republican Party establishment
and Republican business groups because of Graf's strong
stand against illegal immigration. He says he is committed towards making up the difference.
"I will be calling on my fellow Minutemen from around
the country to step up to the plate and make up every
dime lost because Randy Graf won't sell out our national security to the pro-amnesty lobby," Simcox added.
"His victory this November is our top priority and
we will raise whatever it takes to win."
"Minutemen from Houlton, Maine to San Diego,
California and everywhere in between will make
up every dime Randy doesn't get from politicians
and pro-amnesty special interests in Washington.
By tomorrow afternoon, every Minuteman and supporter
in America will hear from me about how they can help
Randy win this election and I expect we will raise
record amounts to help elect Randy Graf this November,
" Simcox added.
MESSAGE TO DC: DEFEND OUR BORDERS OR PAY AT THE POLLS.
"Tonight, Arizona voters sent Washington a message: defend our borders or pay at the polls," Simcox said. "The question for Republicans is whether they will lose elections by taking an appeasement position on the illegal alien question or win by standing tall on defending our borders and our national security. The NRCC look like fools tonight for backing a loser. They can make things right by embracing those who want to secure our borders now, and they can start with a big fat contribution to Randy Graf's campaign."

words from Gov Janet Napolitano on uninvited illegal aliens
words from Gov Janet Napolitano on uninvited illegal aliens
Tuesday, September 19, 2006
Dear Friends:
This year, Congress had one important job before them: enacting
comprehensive immigration reform. To date, they have failed. While they
spent the summer orchestrating sham hearings, we need to use the fall and
winter to keep the pressure on Congress to act, and the resources needed to
combat immigration-related crime.
We continue to do our part at the state level by providing Arizona
National Guard to our Border, combating the crimes underlying the human
smuggling trade, and seizing the assets of drug and human smuggling rings.
More Funding for DPS
In the last four years, we have increased the Department of Public
Safety budget by 62%, adding more highway patrol officers and anti-gang
personnel and focusing on seizing the assets of drug and human smuggling
rings.
Combating Violent Human Smuggling Gangs
Additionally, we are working with local law enforcement in border
counties like Cochise to create a multi-agency, anti-gang task force (known
as GITEM) that specialize in dismantling criminal organizations that make
their living off border-related crime. Within the next six weeks, we will
have 31 more officers added to these units statewide and a total of 41 new
GITEM members by the end of the year.
Federal Intelligence Sharing
Earlier this week, Ambassador Thomas McNamara, of the Office of the
Director of National Intelligence joined me in briefings and a tour of our
Arizona Counter Terrorism Intelligence Center (ACTIC), which combines
federal, state and local intelligence data, analysts, and investigations
into one center. The creation of ACTIC was one of my first homeland
security goals as Governor. McNamara concluded that ACTIC is "a prime
example of what we want to see develop in every state in the union."
Border Law Enforcement Funding
Arizona will receive $6.35 million in federal "Operation Stonegarden"
funding, the largest amount of any state, to reimburse local law enforcement
in assisting the Border Patrol in immigration-related crimes in our border
counties. Last month, I personally urged Secretary Chertoff to release
these critical funds and I greatly appreciate his cooperation.
"Operation Document Fraud"
On September 13, the Fraudulent Identification Taskforce announced the
results of a 12-week investigation. During "Operation Document Fraud"
undercover officers were able to purchase permanent resident cards and
social security cards and numbers in other people's names, but in the names
of 4 people on the FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted Terrorist List, including one
terrorist who had been confirmed as dead a month before the ID was
purchased. In just over a year, the Taskforce has confiscated more than
1,200 fraudulent documents, seized $1.4 million and 73 vehicles, and charged
more than 160 defendants.
We continue to do our part by working with local communities each and
every day to ensure they have the resources they need to combat crime
associated with illegal immigration, and at the same time, pressure the
federal government to step up to the plate and do their part. Once again,
we urge Congress to roll up their sleeves and get to work on immigration
reform - reform that is tough but realistic.
As always, if you have any questions or comments, please contact my
office at 1-800-253-0883 and ask to speak to Constituent Services.
Yours very truly,
Janet Napolitano
Governor

SECURE FENCE ACT PASSES HOUSE
"A milestone," say Minuteman Project leaders.
Gilchrist, Eichler, & Corsi praise volunteers
Washington, DC - On Thursday, Sep 14, three days after the fifth
anniversary of the worst terrorist attack in American history, the House
of Representatives passed HR 6061, the Secure Fence Act of 2006, which
passed by a vote of 283-138. The Act requires the Department of Homeland
Security to beef up border security with a combination of high
technology and a 700-mile fence.
"This is a milestone in border security," said Jim Gilchrist, the
founder of The Minuteman Project, from his command center in Laredo, TX,
where Operation Sovereignty got underway on 9/11 with hundreds of
volunteers. "We couldn't have achieved this without our volunteer
network."
Gilchrist's sentiments were echoed by Minuteman Project executive
director, Steve Eichler, JD; and Dr. Jerome Corsi, co-author, with
Gilchrist, of "Minutemen - the Battle to Secure America's Borders."
"We praise the House leadership for getting this Bill passed," said
Eichler, "but the real heroes are the tens of thousands of Minuteman
Project volunteers who took time to phone, fax and e-mail their
representatives and the House committee; and the many hundreds who have
put their personal lives on hold and spent their own funds to come to
the border to be the eyes and ears of the Border Patrol."
"Of course, we're very pleased about the Secure Fence Act," added Dr.
Corsi, "It looks like they took a chapter from our book, and shows we
have been effective in calling attention to the problems of the wide
open border; but its only a first step. We still need to see increased
personnel and funding for the Border Patrol."
In Laredo, speaking to the volunteers of Operation Sovereignty 9/11,
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) read a letter he'd written to President Bush,
and explained that he'd called the White House for two and a half months
for an answer. "Two weeks ago, I told the White House that if you can't
or won't answer this letter, then I will do so today. That's what I am
doing right now, here in Laredo, Texas, with Jim Gilchrist and the
Minuteman Project."
King's June 23 letter is available in its entirety at The Minuteman
Project website, minutemanproject.com
None of the Minutemen in Laredo could understand why the Bush
administration makes a big show of "locking the front doors," but at the
same time, "leaves the back doors wide open!" But all agreed that
Minuteman Project volunteers on the border, and the tens of thousands of
Minutemen and women who contacted Washington had brought effective
pressure on politicians who had been ignoring the border problem.
"Now," says Gilchrist, "the next step is to convince Senators Kennedy
and McCain that the People know their Senate bill is nothing but smoke
and mirrors; and for them to adopt the House Bill as written. Meanwhile,
the Minutemen will be here, doing the job that government has failed to
do, working with local landowners, law enforcement and the Border
Patrol."
Details on the event are as follows:
Who: Jim Gilchrist, Minuteman Project Founder & volunteers from multiple
states coordinated with the Texas Minutemen, and the American Border
Patrol (AZ)
What: Operation Sovereignty
Where: US/Mexican border near Laredo, TX
When: September 11, - November 7, 2006

Representative Steve King - 5th Congressional District of Iowa
For Immediate Release - - September 12, 2006
KING TO PRESIDENT: WE CANNOT BASE COUNTRY’S NATIONAL SECURITY ON
ENFORCEMENT PROMISES
Laredo, Texas— U.S. Congressman Steve King (IA-05), member of the House
Immigration Subcommittee, yesterday publicly called on President Bush to
first answer the basic immigration questions in his letter.
"I have called the White House every week for ten weeks asking for a
response to my letter. Each week I got a promise to answer it next
week. This Iowa boy knows that next week never comes." said King. "I
told the White House two weeks ago that if they will not answer the most
basic questions, I would hold a press conference and continue the
discussion through the media. We cannot allow a policy that would
legalize 60 million illegals to be established on a 'promise' of
enforcement."
In his speech to a rally of border residents, King read the text of a
letter he has sent to the President, which rejects any potential guest
worker or temporary worker plan based upon the promise of enforcement.
Texas border residents and the Minutemen project yesterday held a rally
to launch an eight-week project to guard the Texas – Mexico border and
report their findings to Border Patrol agents.
“The American people know what is going on, and they are not going to
lie down and watch some plan be passed into law that is just a veiled
amnesty,” said King. “The government has not even proved that it is
capable of enforcing our current immigration laws. Let’s get our borders
secure, let’s enforce our employment laws first, before we even talk
about their plan to dump millions more foreign workers into this
country.”
The text of the letter is below.
Dear Mr. President:
The foundation of your immigration plan is based on the promise of
enforcement. Americans have seen only a diminishing enforcement effort
for at least twenty years. Neither they, nor I, are willing to accept a
proposal based on an empty promise. If border security and domestic
enforcement cannot be achieved, there is no way we can stop or even slow
down the $65 billion in illegal drugs that enters our country annually
across our southern border. I would appreciate your response to the
following questions:
1) Is there such a thing as too much immigration?
2) If so, how much is too much? Too much legal? Too much illegal?
3) How many people do you believe would be given legal status in the U.S. over the next twenty years if S. 2611 were signed
into law?
4) Would you agree to an annual cap on the number of
immigrants allowed into the U.S.?
5) If the federal government cannot stop the illegal
immigration of individuals who work illegally in the United States how
do you propose we stop $65 billion worth of illegal drugs entering our
country every year?
I look forward to your response. The destiny of our nation hangs in
the balance.
Sincerely,
Steve King
Member of Congress

Corsi, "It looks like they took a chapter from our book, and shows we
have been effective in calling attention to the problems of the wide
open border; but its only a first step. We still need to see increased
personnel and funding for the Border Patrol."
In Laredo, speaking to the volunteers of Operation Sovereignty 9/11,
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) read a letter he'd written to President Bush,
and explained that he'd called the White House for two and a half months
for an answer. "Two weeks ago, I told the White House that if you can't
or won't answer this letter, then I will do so today. That's what I am
doing right now, here in Laredo, Texas, with Jim Gilchrist and the
Minuteman Project."
King's June 23 letter is available in its entirety at The Minuteman
Project website, minutemanproject.com
None of the Minutemen in Laredo could understand why the Bush
administration makes a big show of "locking the front doors," but at the
same time, "leaves the back doors wide open!" But all agreed that
Minuteman Project volunteers on the border, and the tens of thousands of
Minutemen and women who contacted Washington had brought effective
pressure on politicians who had been ignoring the border problem.
"Now," says Gilchrist, "the next step is to convince Senators Kennedy
and McCain that the People know their Senate bill is nothing but smoke
and mirrors; and for them to adopt the House Bill as written. Meanwhile,
the Minutemen will be here, doing the job that government has failed to
do, working with local landowners, law enforcement and the Border
Patrol."
Details on the event are as follows:
Who: Jim Gilchrist, Minuteman Project Founder & volunteers from multiple
states coordinated with the Texas Minutemen, and the American Border
Patrol (AZ)
What: Operation Sovereignty
Where: US/Mexican border near Laredo, TX

Representative Steve King - 5th Congressional District of Iowa
For Immediate Release - - September 12, 2006
KING TO PRESIDENT: WE CANNOT BASE COUNTRY’S NATIONAL SECURITY ON
ENFORCEMENT PROMISES
Laredo, Texas— U.S. Congressman Steve King (IA-05), member of the House
Immigration Subcommittee, yesterday publicly called on President Bush to
first answer the basic immigration questions in his letter.
"I have called the White House every week for ten weeks asking for a
response to my letter. Each week I got a promise to answer it next
week. This Iowa boy knows that next week never comes." said King. "I
told the White House two weeks ago that if they will not answer the most
basic questions, I would hold a press conference and continue the
discussion through the media. We cannot allow a policy that would
legalize 60 million illegals to be established on a 'promise' of
enforcement."
In his speech to a rally of border residents, King read the text of a
letter he has sent to the President, which rejects any potential guest
worker or temporary worker plan based upon the promise of enforcement.
Texas border residents and the Minutemen project yesterday held a rally
to launch an eight-week project to guard the Texas – Mexico border and
report their findings to Border Patrol agents.
“The American people know what is going on, and they are not going to
lie down and watch some plan be passed into law that is just a veiled
amnesty,” said King. “The government has not even proved that it is
capable of enforcing our current immigration laws. Let’s get our borders
secure, let’s enforce our employment laws first, before we even talk
about their plan to dump millions more foreign workers into this
country.”
The text of the letter is below.
Dear Mr. President:
The foundation of your immigration plan is based on the promise of
enforcement. Americans have seen only a diminishing enforcement effort
for at least twenty years. Neither they, nor I, are willing to accept a
proposal based on an empty promise. If border security and domestic
enforcement cannot be achieved, there is no way we can stop or even slow
down the $65 billion in illegal drugs that enters our country annually
across our southern border. I would appreciate your response to the
following questions:
1) Is there such a thing as too much immigration?
2) If so, how much is too much? Too much legal? Too much illegal?
3) How many people do you believe would be given legal status in the U.S. over the next twenty years if S. 2611 were signed
into law?
4) Would you agree to an annual cap on the number of
immigrants allowed into the U.S.?
5) If the federal government cannot stop the illegal
immigration of individuals who work illegally in the United States how
do you propose we stop $65 billion worth of illegal drugs entering our
country every year?
I look forward to your response. The destiny of our nation hangs in
the balance.
Sincerely,
Steve King
Member of Congress
