Extreme pressure may be needed to get Governor Perry to sign an immigration bill, but he really has nothing to do with the bills while they are in the legislature.

txguy1, Does your statement indicate that Perry and Straus are working at cross purpose? I have been under the impression that Straus held up any anti-ILLEGAL bills so Perry would not have to face the political decision to sign or not.

We must also communicate with our own representative and let them know that we demand that immigration legislation be passed in 2011. Rick Hardcastle in my representative and has already received several faxes from me about illegal immigration.
The 2011 Legislative session will be unlike any in the past because of the success of the Arizona Legislature and the many other states that are introducing immigration bills similar to Arizona's law. The pressure is now on the state legislatures to act.

texguy1, I may be incorrect but I was thinking that Perry and Straus worked together on the bills because Perry didn't want to have any difficult decisions on supporting ILLEGAL immigration bills. It may cost him votes from the Pro-ILLEGAL voters and of course he knows he can count on us (?); you know the lesser of two evils, worked pretty good for McCain.
"ILLEGALS’ invading our Nation is not a partisan issue; there are Politicians in both major Political Parties who are against Amnesty, for Enforcement, and Securing our Borders. However, during the last few years I have learned that many Politicians that you vote for under a set of parameters much as children always test the limits of how far they go and to see what they can get away with in office. They have a lot of pressure from Special Interest Groups and Elitist Political Contributors and we have to continue to remind the Politicians that we will remove them from office if they want to serve the Special Interest Groups and not the Citizens. If the Elitist Politicians refuse their Citizens and only serve their Special Interest Groups our Nation will be lost so we must continue to REMIND!"

It would seem that Hispanics in the legislature would rather be surrounded by other Hispanics even if they have to break the law to do it. The answer for the rest of us is that if they are unwilling to do their job we need to not vote for them next time they run for office. Hispanics aren't the majority in this country yet and we still can vote them out!
