Washington, D.C. – Early this morning, the House Armed Services Committee (HASC) passed the FY 2016 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) after open borders and amnesty proponents added Congressman Ruben Gallego’s (D-AZ) amendment, on a 33-30 vote, that encourages the Secretary of Defense to declare that DACA illegal aliens are "vital" to America's national interest and thus eligible to enlist in the U.S. Armed Forces even though they are not American citizens.
In previous years, HASC defeated similar efforts to help illegal aliens compete for and take military service opportunities from American citizens. However, six wayward Republicans spurned the HASC Chairman and 30 of their GOP colleagues by voting to put illegal aliens first and American citizens second. Congressman Mo Brooks (R-AL) strongly opposed this amendment.
Congressman Brooks’ statement:
“It makes no sense to me that, at the same time the Army is downsizing and issuing pink slips to American soldiers serving in Afghanistan, there are Congressmen who help illegal aliens deprive American citizens of military service opportunities.
“It’s appalling that some members of the Republican conference, and frankly all members of the Democratic conference, place illegal immigrants on pedestals over American citizens, contrary to the needs andwishes of the American people.
"Illegal aliens are already taking jobs from and suppressing the wages of struggling American families in the private job market. Now Democrats and wayward Republicans are similarly and actively undermining Americans' opportunities to serve in the military.

McSally is bad as McCain because even Neocon McCain doesn't want the NDAA derailed with this or before McCain and McMcSally have to run in 2016 primary and general.
McSally is working from the majority while her Democrat opponent would be doing nothing in minority.
I thought it was a felony to arm an illegal alien according to Judge Jeannie and Col. Allen West. Joining the military they would receive a weapon.
How many DACA have even registered for the draft?

Hey, that's the plan..., the Roman Empire resorted to the same over a 1,000 years ago! Native born are rejected for service after government education, physical body abuse (due to lack of physical education and the tattoo craze).
Obama only creates jobs for illegals and foreigners
Barry doesn’t.
Citizenship for those who enlist and shoot any American patriots who fight back.
That’s what Barry’s all about.
I hope y’all get it by now. It’s not about Mexican peasants jumping the border or swimming the Rio Grande so they can get welfare in America. It’s about Isis and Al Qaeda terrorists sneaking in here, disguised as refugees. The blanket amnesty that Obama is trying to pull off would cover them, too. Give them legitimate ID, and allow them to take any job from any American they want. Even high-security jobs. You can’t run a background check on somebody who comes from a country where the government won’t release their personal information to U.S officials. Think about it.
Time to remove those 6 from the committee.
...sadly with slug sons of so many of our political class unwilling to serve in uniform (and especially in positions where they might see combat), who will serve during a major ground war? We already have dropped conscription, which has allowed the young slugs to bow out since 1973.
McSally is another cheap labor importer like McCain and Flake. Why does AZ elect people like these?
