Oppose S. 955
I urge you to oppose S. 955, the bill that would grant fast-track trade authority to Pres. Obama. I believe Congress should retain its power to review and amend any trade agreement that the United States enters into, and by granting Pres. Obama fast-track authority, Congress would be giving up that power.

House must strip DACA language from Armed Services Funding Bill
I cannot understand how the House Armed Services Committee — a committee on which you serve — voted to endorse the DACA amnesty as part of the NDAA. Please make sure the military amnesty amendments are not in the final bill.

Stop paying to relocate illegal aliens
I was outraged to learn that the Obama administration is using taxpayer dollars to bring the children of illegal aliens to the United States. This simply encourages illegal immigration and I urge you to work to defund it.

Sen. Sessions calls for lower immigration levels
Chairman of the Senate’s immigration subcommittee, Sen. Jeff Sessions, wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post calling for “an honest discussion of immigration” and its effects on American workers and their families. I agree that it is time for Congress to have this discussion and work to stem the tide of the hundreds of thousands of immigrants to work jobs that millions of Americans need to have.

Illegal aliens’ crimes expose Obama’s illegal amnesty
A new Washington Times article by Stephen Dinan highlights the dangers of Barack Obama’s failed — and illegal — immigration policies:

House needs to get behind birthright citizenship legislation
Passing the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2015 is key to stopping the flow of illegal aliens across our borders. While the United States continues to grant citizenship to the children of illegal aliens, illegal aliens will still have an incentive to risk their lives in an attempt to come to this country illegally. I urge you, for the sake of all involved, to cosponsor H.R. 140, the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2015.

House Armed Services Committee backs DACA
It is disappointing that the Gallego amendment to the NDAA passed. Thank you for voting against it and voting against the president’s DACA amnesty.

High immigration caused middle class wages to drop
The Congressional Research Service has tied falling middle class wages to increased immigration numbers and Congress has done nothing to address this very serious problem. Reducing immigration numbers to sensible levels would increase middle class wages and I urge you to push for legislation that would make this happen.

Congress must prevent fast track for Pacific free trade deal
President Obama must not given fast track authority (TPA) for the TransPacific Partnership (TPP). The potential ramifications for American workers are far too great for the Congress to be prevented from having sufficient debate of the free trade agreement and the ability to amend it. I urge you not to give President Obama this authority.

Mulvaney resolution opposes Obama’s amnesties
I am glad that you voted against the revised DHS funding bill that stripped amnesty defunding language from the legislation. Please continue to stick up for jobless Americans, the rule of law, and our nation’s security by cosponsoring H. Con. Res. 28, introduced by Rep. Mick Mulvaney, which expresses the sense of Congress that President Obama’s amnesties are illegal and were not approved by Congress through passage of H.R. 240.

Thanks for opposing Obama’s illegal executive amnesty
Thank you for voting against the revised DHS funding bill. Leaving the funding for the president’s amnesties in tact is the same as supporting amnesty.

Thanks for cosponsoring legislation to mandate E-Verify
We are glad you cosponsored the Legal Workforce Act, H.R. 1147. This bill provides for a sensible phase-in of mandatory use of the E-Verify system and will help combat identity fraud. With 18 million Americans unable to find a full-time job and millions more suffering from the ramifications of a stolen identity, this legislation is truly important. Thank you for cosponsoring it.

Stop Obama’s illegal executive amnesties
I am very pleased that U.S. District Court Judge Andrew Hanen has decided that President Obama cannot, for the moment, follow through on his plans to break the law by unilaterally granting amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. I hope Congress will use this opportunity to bring immigration policy back to Congress by passing legislation stopping the president’s actions.

Shame on you for supporting Obama’s illegal executive amnesty
Your decision to attach our state’s support to efforts to overturn Judge Andrew Hanen’s ruling against President Obama’s executive amnesties is appalling. Why are you in favor of the president’s amnesties when their implementation would keep millions of American workers out of a job?
-
Shame on you for funding Obama’s illegal executive amnesty
We cannot understand why you voted in favor of the Senate’s DHS funding bill that strips out the amnesty defunding language from the House’s version. Don’t you care that jobless Americans will have to compete against millions of amnestied illegal aliens for jobs?

Please cosponsor legislation to end birthright citizenship
An op-ed in a recent edition of USA Today explains how birthright citizenship loopholes are exploited by illegal workers and tourists, and lead to more unemployed citizens and legal immigrant workers. I hope you will read this editorial and act to change the current (unacceptable) situation by cosponsoring Rep. Steve King’s H.R. 140.

Illegals do NOT have the right to work
Please ensure that Loretta Lynch understands that immigration laws exist to protect a country’s workers. And ask her to pledge that she will enforce immigration laws passed by Congress so that Americans don’t have to compete for jobs with foreign citizens who have overstayed visitor visas or crossed our borders illegally.
