Folks: Read My Lips, Mr. Cantor: No illegal immigrant should ever be allowed to become an American citizen or be able to vote in any USA election....period. Worker permits...maybe....but no citizenship or vote....ever!!! Mr. Cantor learned that tonight!!!
And......the rest of the Republican establishment better take note!!! The Tea Party lives!!! Congratulations....Mr. Brat!!! And.....If the Pubbie Establishment has any brains....say bye, bye to Thad Cochran in MS!!!
What you may not know is that it was not only about illegal immigration and amnesty, but reducing legal immigration. Brat is the first politician since Tancredo to articulate the need to curb legal immigration, but unlike Tancredo, he linked it to jobs depressed wages. This is the template for Reps to win elections. I hope they learn that new reality as they did in the UK when the chant went out British jobs for British workers, Now all three main UK parties have a consensus on reducing legal immigration.
If they get a work permit, they will illegally register to vote and they will vote or a ‘coach’ will handle their votes for them. This is real.
Need voting reform, must prove American citizenship, must show ID and must have absentee voting curtailed severely.
