Thread: Mike Pence Statement

May 16, 2007
WASHINGTON, DC - Mike Pence Statement: "The halls of Congress are abuzz with rumors of a grand compromise on the issue of illegal immigration.

"There is talk of a proposal that would allow millions of illegal immigrants to remain in this country by merely paying a fine. Let me say emphatically: amnesty is no bargain for the American people. Any effort at comprehensive immigration reform must begin by rejecting amnesty.


"We will put border security first and not implement any type of temporary worker program until border security measures have been undertaken and completed. And once a temporary worker program begins, we must require that every person who has come into this country illegally leave the United States and apply outside of our country for the legal right to live and work here.

"And if they come under the color of the law, we must require temporary workers to learn the language of the American people. In addition, serious fines and an electronic verification system must ensure a full partnership between American business and the American government in enforcing our immigration laws. The real grand bargain for the American people is comprehensive immigration reform that begins with an affirmation of the rule of law."

Senator Pence, this bill is not about benefiting the American people, its about screwing them. You would be better off by standing up on your side of the isle and claiming this whole bill a sham and a lie and point the finger at its makers and call them what they are: traitors, since it's conception was founded in secrecy and those who vote on it will never read it, but will approve it. MOST OF THIS GOVERNMENT SUCKS BIG TIME.
