Congress and Obama, Save Our Country, Protect Our Borders

In my email today was a message from Roy Beck, strong-hearted President of NumbersUSA.com, a vigilant and rock-hard supporter of the America that once flourished on this North American continent now plagued with blatant lawlessness and futility for its many good, honest, hard-working citizens.

Beck and Numbers have been sending messages to real Americans who live in all parts of our nation. They have the best interests of all of the people at heart and the motivation to spur us into needed actions to keep us aware of the dangers surrounding us and the ways we can take actions to prevent their expansion.

Beck’s message today was about four alert Congressmen from widely separated districts such as New York, Utah, Washington and Texas who have taken action in Congress to help relieve some well-intentioned, but terribly misguided lawful restrictions that seriously hamper the effective control of our borders.

These gentlemen, all Republicans, from the states as shown above, are Peter King, Bob Bishop, Doc Hastings and Lamar Smith. You may have noticed that ironically, only one border state is represented; that of Mr. Smith of Texas. It makes one wonder if the elected U. S. Representatives of the other border states are so against the people of the United States that they declined to be a part of its protections against lawlessness.
As Roy Beck stated in his email, “Today, four Members of Congress introduced a simple bill that they believe will greatly increase the safety of Americans living near the border, while improving the health of the natural environment.“

The bill, H. R. 5016 as submitted would prevent one U. S. government agency from stopping another U. S. government agency while it was trying to put a halt to the border crossing of illegal aliens. Numbers USA showed the short bill in its entirety as follows:
“Neither the Secretary of Interior nor the Secretary of Agriculture shall impede, prohibit, or restrict activities of the Secretary of Homeland Security on public lands to achieve operational control (as defined in section 2(b) of the Secure Fence Act of 2006 (8 U.s.C. 1701 note; Public Law 109-367) over the international land and maritime borders of the United States.â€
