Pete Sessions’ Pro Amnesty Travel Buddy Rubs Off on Him
by Bob Price 11 Dec 2014, 6:52 AM PDT
Illinois Congressman Luis Gutierrez seemed overcome by happiness when Texas Republican Pete Sessions flipped on his tough talk against Obama's Executive Amnesty and said not one person should be “thrown out” or “deported.”
In an article by Breitbart's Matthew Boyle on Big Government, Sessions is quoted telling Democrats, “I’m going to use my assets and resources in the new year to work with this Congress, including [Democratic Rep. Jared] Polis [of Colorado], to have a well understood agreement about what the law should be, and how we as communities, and farm communities, and tech communities create circumstances where we can have people be in this country and work, and where not one person is quote ‘thrown out’ or ‘deported;’ where we do keep families together, but what we do is we do so under a rule of law of an understanding.”
Congressional travel records reveal a possible explanation for the “odd political bedfellows” of Gutierrez and Sessions as it appears they have been spending a lot of time traveling together on Congressional junkets.
At least two expense reports filed by Sessions show him traveling with the pro-amnesty Gutierrez at the expense of the pro-comprehensive immigration reform group, the Ripon Society. The two trips, attached below, reveal Sessions and Gutierrez traveling together on expense paid trips to Dublin, Ireland and Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Ripon Society appears to follow the immigration reform policies of Sen. John McCain and New Jersey Governor Chris Christi.
During the Dublin trip Gutierrez, listed on the agenda as a member of the House Judiciary’s Immigration Subcommittee, participated in a panel discussion on highly-skilled workers and immigration. Sessions led another forum on the “exchange of ideas for governance.” During the trip to Argentina, Sessions and Gutierrez appeared together in a panel discussion on “Priorities of the 113th Congress.” The two trips occurred over the past two years. It is not known at this time, how many other trips the two have taken together.
It appears Gutierrez’ pro-amnesty dreams have rubbed off on the Congressman who just two weeks ago railed against Obama’s Executive Amnesty action which granted amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants. At that time, he called Obama’s actions “an egregious abuse of power that blatantly disregards the Constitution” according to an a Sessions press release obtained by Breitbart Texas.
Now, however, when speaking to a group of Democrats, including his travel buddy Gutierrez, Sessions insisted that he sees the need to implement immigration reform. He assured the group of Democrats he would make full use of his “assets and resources” upon the beginning of the 114th Congress next year. As chairman of the powerful House Rules Committee, that is a powerful assurance. Sessions said he would work to “create circumstances where we can have people be in this country and work, and where not one person is ‘thrown out’ or ‘deported.’”
Sessions’ travel buddy Gutierrez responded positively stating his heart was “filled with joy.”

And we paid for the trips?!
We need to stop all foreign travel by members of the US Congress, because they've proven over and over they can't be trusted to represent or serve our best interest.Last edited by Judy; 12-12-2014 at 09:03 AM.
