Thread: AZ:Rep. Kirkpatrick States Support of CIR

Kirkpatrick explains her first-term priorities

Arizona Daily Sun:

[Ann] Kirkpatrick met with mayors and town councils in December, to learn what communities here would like included in an economic stimulus package, and what infrastructure projects could be started quickly.

She is unequivocally opposed, however, to using federal dollars to rescue private businesses, she said.

Other issues she said she’d advocate or fight:

– Keeping federal grants for law enforcement to fight drug use

– Opposing uranium mining on public lands anywhere near the Grand Canyon

– Supporting “immigration reform,â€

Ms Kirkpatrick has no clue what comprehensive immigration reform would do to this economy, meaning that Americans losing jobs daily will have to find some way to support and employ the illegals until they learn English. No bailouts for private business also means no bailout of the mom-and-pop diner losing business because the factory that just closed had people that came in to eat. No bailout of the local bank means the diner, with diminished business cannot meet payroll, and the bank borrows from other banks to meet their needs will not be able to.
With no credit line for the diner, they just better hope that all their clientele is illegal, as it seems they are the only ones with jobs these days.
She better start connecting the dots.

Obama is pushing for funding of infrastructure to help the economy. These jobs will be filled by mostly blue collar workers, only he is going to call them "green collar" jobs as these positions preferably will be filled by people who have green cards; i.e., newly legalized aliens after the shamnesty bill passes.
