    Smith: Senate Strikes Out on Immigration Proposal

    Washington, Apr 16 -
    Congressman Smith issued the below statement today criticizing the Senate’s amnesty proposal.

    Congressman Smith: “It’s three strikes and you’re out for the Senate’s immigration proposal.

    First, it legalizes almost everyone in the country illegally before the border is secured. This, of course, will encourage even more illegal immigration.


    “Second, it puts the interests of foreign workers ahead of the interests of American workers. The immigration plan allows millions of illegal immigrants to compete with American workers, driving down their wages.

    “And third, it treats illegal immigrants better than those who have played by the rules and waited their turn in line to come to the United States. Illegal immigrants get legal status immediately. The law-abiding—well, they just have to continue waiting.

    “I don’t think the American people are going to give the Senate another turn at bat.”

    Just heard Bill O'Reilly state he thought it (Amnesty bill) was a good deal, I'm amazed people can be so misinformed, what the bill would do to our country just in terms of the economy is astounding. O'Reilly believes it would help the GOP gain votes, wow Bill I have a bridge to sell you.
    I'm old with many opinions few solutions.
