Sue Myrick: new bill to address illegal immigration today

To help fix an immigration system she thinks is broken, U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick plans to introduce the The Scott Gardner Act when Congress returns in September.

Gardner was the Mount Holly man killed last month in Brunswick County, N.C., when his car was hit by a truck driven by an illegal Mexican immigrant. Ramiro Gallegos has been charged with drunken driving and murder.
It was Gallegos' fifth impaired-driving charge in five years. He was eligible for deportation each time he was arrested. Though he was entered in computers as an illegal immigrant in 2000, immigration officials say they received no requests for information about him from local law enforcement.
Many police departments question immigration status only if suspects are involved in felonies. Because drunken driving is a misdemeanor, it's a lower priority for immigration officers.
Myrick, a Charlotte Republican, said last week, "There has got to be a better reporting system." She said Gardner's death was "a call to action."
Aide Hal Weatherman said Wednesday the proposed measure is designed to ensure better coordination between law-enforcement agencies in determining someone's immigration status.
He said more details, and other recommendations, would be released at a news conference Myrick plans Monday in Gastonia.
Myrick also plans to hold a "town meeting" on immigration issues Tuesday night in Gastonia.
A Gardner family spokesman declined to comment Wednesday.

I went and got to ask my question and, lets just say Ms. Myrick was not happy with me....
She did say that she was taking a strong stance against illegal immigration but I honestly think it was for show. I will be writing an article tonight. You may want to watch the News and Observer for a quote from me....I stay current on Americans for Legal Immigration PAC's fight to Secure Our Border and Send Illegals Home via E-mail Alerts (CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP)

From reading the article, it sounds like Sue got the message and heard the anger of us legals. I REALLY HOPE SHE GOT AN EAR FULL! IT IS WAY PAST TIME THOSE ELECTED REPS HEAR FROM THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR HER AND THE REST OF THEM ON THIS ISSUE. Below is a quote from the Observer article.
"We all know where most of them live," she said. "Why can't our law enforcement agencies set up a (driver's) license check?"
Critics of such policies say they would lead to racial profiling since officers would have a hard time distinguishing between legal and illegal residents. But critics weren't in attendance Tuesday night.
I'm going to make a prediction that before this thing is over, GWB is going to feel what Hilter felt like when the allies where closing in on him at the end of the war with respect to the evil that went on in the concentration camps. Their secrets were about to be made public and now how are they going to justify the goings on? My friends, GWB cannot hide what he has been doing with respect to illegal immigration. Everybody know it especially when you called the MMP, vigilaties. George, I ask you, how you going to explain it to us legals that you sold us out? Fox can't help you now. You are on your own!I wonder how many illegals got their NC driver licenses renewed last week? President Bush needs to protect the borders not illegals. President Bush is a coward and guilty of treason when it comes to securing the borders.
