Government shut-down preferable to the alternative

I understand your frustration with the Senate and White House over the shut-down of the government. However, I would offer you this: Nothing that this government has done since Obama took office has been in the best interests of America or Americans. Shutting down the government is preferable to allowing him to continue to destroy what’s left of our country. Furthermore, I hope that your frustration does NOT lead you to caving in to the spendthrift obstructionists, as Republicans seem to be doing these days. Please stand firm, and make this shut-down stand for something. You’re doing a great job so far. Keep up the good work!

Take amnesty off the table completely

While we do wish to secure the border, secure the workplace, and mandate use of the E-Verify system, passing any immigration legislation while the Senate’s mass amnesty bill is still active would give the Senate the vehicle it needs to pass a mass amnesty.

‘No Conference’

I hope you will sign the letter Rep. Steve Stockman has written to House Speaker John Boehner.

I hope you will sign this letter and show Speaker Boehner that he must ensure that amnesty is not passed through a conference committee.

Oppose H.R. 1413

I urge you to oppose H.R. 1413, the Border Security Results Act of 2013. While I do wish to secure the border, this bill would have no real impact on border security and would simply give the Senate the vehicle it needs to pass a mass amnesty.

Oppose S. 744 et al.

It’s too bad we didn’t get to speak with you over August Recess. Since we were unable to attend your town hall, we wanted to share our views on immigration reform moving through the House this fall. We oppose the Senate-approved immigration bill, S.744, and hope you oppose any legislation in the House that could be used to go to conference with S.744.

Amnesty lies from the White House

I completely agree with the Heritage Foundation’s assertion that the White House is promulgating falsehoods in an effort to force the Senate’s immigration bill on the American people. Please do all you can to prevent this bill from becoming law.
