It will be interesting to seed if this blue dog Democrat rolls over and turns commie red.
so all i’ve heard about this lady is she’s pro-gun, and anti- illegal immigration.
what stances does she have that’s democrat?
Maybe contact her office (http://congress.org/congressorg/bio/id/51447)
& point out some of the economic benefits from an immigration moratorium also:
“Memo to President Obama: Add Immigration Moratorium to the Economic Stimulus Package
...
All of which raises an obvious question: Why not impose a moratorium on immigration? By cutting labor force growth in half, this would allow our weakened economy to absorb a greater fraction of new—native-born American—entrants.
The unemployment rate would fall. And, equally important, average incomes would rise as jobs currently going to low wage immigrants would be filled by U.S.-born workers.
What would an immediate moratorium do? I have run the numbers for 2008.
You will recall that the unemployment rate was 7.2 percent in December 2008, up from 4.9 percent in December of 2007. Over that period unemployment rose by 3.6 million, swelled by job losers as well as new labor force entrants.
The civilian labor force grew by 611,000 last year, from 153.836 million in December 2007 to 154.447 million December 2008. Had a moratorium been in effect, about 305,000 fewer people would be looking for jobs.
That may not sound like a lot at a time when jobs are disappearing by more than 500,000 per month. But 305,000 fewer job seekers is equal to about 9 percent of last year’s stunning unemployment increase, the biggest for 22 years.
Implication: a one-year moratorium would reduce by at least 9 percent the stimulus spending required to restore the economy to its pre-meltdown state. That translates to $90 billion of federal savings.”

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.
More than enough Republicans have turned RINO lately. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt as she has a great rating right now as a true conservative.
Maybe she will change parties if the GOP ever locates its backbone, intestines and testacles.
