I know that during that 20 years, Newt voted in favor of Reagan’s amnesty bill.
I don’t know why Newt would have to introduce or co-sponsor any bill that says enforce the laws we’ve already passed. Seems rather silly.
I know in 1994-1996 Newt was pushing through the conservative agenda, i.e. the Contract with America. How and why did he sabotage efforts to enforce the immigration laws during just those 2 years in office? I take it he didn’t sabotage efforts to enforce immigration from 1980-1995, or in his last years in office, 1997-1999?
Maybe the Democrats were only saying they were open to the immigration issue to derail the passage of the conservative agenda? Sorry, I don’t believe Democrats nor do I trust them and I didn’t in the 1990’s either.
