Senate this week, we won all four! Including Use E-Verify!
Senate Passes Sessions’ E-Verify Amendment
Senate Adopts DeMint Border Fence Amendment
Senate Adopts Vitter and Grassley Amendments —
And immigration-reduction.
Now if only we can keep Ms. Sotomayor for becoming a Supreme.
ANOTHER SHOCKER Local law enforcement officers will be able to act as immigration agents under an agreement announced Friday by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. Eleven new jurisdictions around the nation were accepted into the program, known as 287g, on Friday.
Napolitano also unveiled a standardized agreement for any local jurisdiction that wants to deputize police to act on behalf of ICE.
The program has drawn strong opposition from immigrant advocates and divided opinions among L/E who feel it may undermine trust in immigrant communities where crime is often underreported.
DeMint/Sessions...would make a great ticket for 2012
