Taylor has not been among the vocal lawmakers on the issue. He is not a sponsor or co-sponsor on bills dealing with the issue.

Gee I wonder if he is trying to win some votes after his my Vote didn’t count on CAFTA"

I know he won’t be getting mine. By the way Mr. Taylor's aide assured me in July that he would be requesting an investigation into why his vote was read by the electronic system. I have contacted him several times on this issue to demand that it be investigated. I am, um I mean was one of his constituents and several months later, still no answer. Mr. Taylor, "YOURE FIRED!" See you at the polls.

By the way, I wonder if Mr. Taylor is for the FTAA?

Tudela’s organization helps people with family members in Latin America go through legal channels, he said, but others without access to information give up and cross the border illegally. They, too, deserve a chance to become Americans, he said.

“All these people, they come only to work, to have a better life and, you know, try to survive,� he said.

This describes 2 billion people in the world. If they all moved here, the US would be no better than the place they left.

How come this article does not mention that the Jordan Immigration Reform Commission determined that an immigration level of 600,000 a year benefits America. Any more than that does not. Certainly not the 20 million a year Catholic Charities would like to see. Oh by the way, Catholic Charities receives millions from the US government every year to "help people with family members in Latin America go through legal channels".

They're always trying to come up with something. That's half the problem.
