We believe Rep Julia Carson, Democrat representing the 7th Congressional District, should not be re-elected for another term.
Carson voted against the Community Protection Act of 2006. This legislation would have detained illegal aliens to ensure that they would be deported and not released back onto our streets. Carson has a terrible record when it comes to enforcing our immigration laws and seems to support illegal immigration. On a scale from A to F for her efforts on illegal immigration, Americans for Better Immigration gives Carson a D.
Her opponent, Eric Dickerson, states he doesn't support amnesty for the illegal immigrants in our country. Dickerson, being a newcomer to national politics, should be given a chance to represent Indiana in the House of Representatives for the next term.

11/01/06 - FOX.NEWS - YOU DECIDE 2006 -- Eric Dickerson
Dear FOX Fans,
My name is Eric Dickerson and I'm running for Congress because I think a congressional district is a terrible thing to waste. My campaign is about change and vision. I offer the people of Indianapolis -- Democrats, Republicans and Independent voters alike -- a new path forward; a path based on positive leadership, vigor, fresh ideas, and consensus building that will improve the lives of all our citizens.
My opponent, Julia Carson, has represented Indiana's 7th District for 10 years. I have tremendous respect for her. She has been a courageous leader who has served her community with distinction. However, it's time for a new brand of leadership to produce the kind of results we need to build a vibrant, prosperous, safe, community. Spreading the love simply isn't enough.
