Outstanding!!

GO SESSIONS! GO AMERICANS!

Kay Hagan (D-NC) surprised me with this vote.
Does anyone know what is going on with Grassley's amendment? I tuned into C-SPAN but was called away so I didn't even hear his pitch.

has not been brought up on the thomas.gov website

AMENDMENT PURPOSE: Purpose will be available when the amendment is proposed for consideration. See Congressional Record for text.

Senator Hagan knows North Carolina's people have had it with I-9s and our Employment Security Commission sending illegal aliens into NC's workplace.

Good for Kay Hagan!
