Newt believes America must be a nation of laws. The first duty of the federal government is national defense, and it is inexcusable that we haven’t secured the border. In his 21st Century Contract with America, Newt pledges to control the southern border by January 1, 2014, waiving any regulations and pushing aside any bureaucracies that get in the way. As we secure the border, we must make an aggressive and serious effort to deport all criminals, gang members, and any other threats to our society as quickly as possible. We must also tap into the ingenuity of the private sector to better validate who is in the United States legally. Newt opposed the DREAM Act. However, he did agree with part of the legislation which allowed those who came to the United States illegally as children to serve in the U.S. Military to earn their citizenship, just as foreign nationals are today allowed to do the same. Furthermore, Newt has proposed giving local communities the authority to allow those with long established roots in the neighborhood a legal residency status, but not citizenship. Newt believes local communities are at a better vantage point to determine if those there illegally should stay or go. Under this system, we will send home those with no family or community ties and quickly deport those who have committed criminal and other destructive acts, while providing minimal disruption to families and communities.

Newt believes America must be a nation of laws.

So if Newt believes that America must be a nation of laws, he must be for enforcing the laws for the following illegal actions, correct?

1. Illegal Entry into our nation.
2. Aquiring a fake IDs(drivers licenses, Social Security IDs, etc).
3. Using a fake ID to aquire health services


If he believes so much in America being a nation of laws, then he will push for complete and thorough application of said laws.

People that fall for this plan are dummer than doorknobs. Look what creating a quasi-legal status in “resident” did for Texas. Taxpayers are on the hook for the differential between instate vs. out-of-state tuition rates for ingrate DREAMERS.Then as pointed out shrewdly by Rush a court case will easily create an “equal protection” lawsuit granting equal rights to “residents” as citizens. Take note of the AG lawsuit from Louisiana regarding distorted political representation by counting illegals in the census. This boys and girls is called “loss of the political nation” and will equal a taxpayer funded takeover of your nation paid for in blood. Is that really what you want?
Enforce the laws...its never been done EXCEPT by the courageous move by states like AL,AZ,GA,SC......ALL WE ARE SAYING IS GIVE ENFORCEMENT A CHANCE.......

Whoever wrote that 10 point plan document for newt.org should be required to take remedial English at the local community college.
