This weekend, dozens of Southern Californians plan to march in Washington for immigration reform, joining thousands of activists from around the country. Today, a different group of Southern Californians members of the L.A. Area Chamber of Commerce heard from a U.S. senator who took a lot of political heat for his efforts at immigration reform.
The question arose at lunch during the Chambers annual lobbying trip to Washington. What did Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona think the U.S. should do about the flood of immigrants running over California?
McCain cosponsored the last major immigration reform bill with the late Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy. That measure died and GOP rivals criticized McCain for his efforts.
McCain told the Chamber that it now was up to President Obama to outline his immigration agenda. "He talks about immigration reform," McCain said. "I want to see his proposal! Hes the president of the United States. Id like to see a proposal from the president of the United States and Id like to review. So far, that has not happened."
McCain told the L.A. Chamber secure borders were important, particularly with the rise in drug violence in Mexico. But he also made the case for a temporary legal worker program using tamper-proof identification cards.
Personally, I don't care less how she feels about it.
The fact is, anyone supporting amnesty, supporting other candidates who support amnesty, open borders, voluntarily aids and abets illegal aliens in anyway, or that refuses to publicly support laws and legislation that strictly prohibits employers form hiring illegal aliens through criminal and civil actions, or that fails to support laws and actions that would enforce immigrations control, border control and strict immigration reform, for both legal and illegal immigration, will not benefit from our votes.
No offense, but did you major in stupidity?
Maybe you some of folks in Ohio are a little slow to catch on, but most here in the southwest have nothing left but searing contempt for anyone supporting amnesty in anyway.
Once again, anyone supporting amnesty, supporting other candidates who support amnesty, open borders, voluntarily aids and abets illegal aliens in anyway, or that refuses to publicly support laws and or legislation that strictly prohibits employers form hiring illegal aliens through criminal and civil actions, or that fails to support laws and actions that would enforce immigrations control, border control and strict immigration reform, for both legal and illegal immigration, will not benefit from our votes.
