Chris Lauzen, the only Illinois Senator to vote against in-state tuition for illegal aliens says:
"Time to Act…Vote Rauschenberger and Wiegand"
"You already know that many of us are working hard to nominate Steve Rauschenberger for U.S. Senate (Click here for endorsement). He is the only candidate to take the clear and courageous position of calling for meaningful “reform” in the Republican Party. Steve is the only candidate in this race with actual experience that we can trust. And, he can beat the Democrats (Obama or Hynes) in November!
"I respect all of our candidates and will support and work for whoever is our nominee. However, the reason why 40 state senators and representatives are dedicated to Rauschenberger’s success is that we have seen his work, integrity, and generous nature.
"I am sorry that Jack Ryan feels vulnerable on some of his divorce files. He should not have to endure the personal attacks that will come, but if anyone thinks that the Downtown Chicago Democrats will not use that issue to pound on Jack and Republicans (as George Ryan and others of his wing of the party go to trial on corruption later this year), they are sadly naïve.
"Jim Oberweis has identified that illegal immigration is a huge problem for the United States. However, his approach to the issue has elicited the label of “bigotry” from the mainstream press. That is certainly not Jim’s intention and I hope that what he has said has not done more damage than good.
"On a totally different front, if you live in DeKalb, Ogle, or LaSalle Counties and can vote for Joe Wiegand for State Representative, please do! He is the authentic tax fighter in that race and stands four-square for the traditional values that have made America strong. The “Do Nothing about George Ryan and Bob Kjellander” wing of the party has thrown the kitchen sink at Joe and he needs our help."
Senator Chris Lauzen's letter of endorcement of Senator Steve Rauschenberger:

Oh for Heavens Sake, how can ANYONE identify Illegal Immigration as a major problem WITHOUT getting the label of "bigotry" slapped on them? Mr. Lauzen is being quite disingenuous here. He apparently sides with the politically correct, status quo policy of NOT discussing Critical Issues like Illegal Immigration--which will most definitely determine the quality of life (or lack of it) in IL, because it might ruffle some feathers in the liberal media and get the RACE Pimps going. I don't buy it.
When can we talk about Illegal Immigration? When it is TOO LATE?
The way things are going in this country with run away political correctness the Mexican Army could blow through our borders and into America’s Heartland and our politicians would stand around in stone silence--afraid if they made it an issue they would be called a "Racist". Enough of this nonsense.
Who is going to Stand Up for the American CITIZENS of this country?
In this race it is clear--Jim Oberweis.
I just got back from the polls.
I voted for Raushenberger simply because of his 2nd Amendment views.
Yea, I'm a one issue voter.
