    Short Answer

    Has your campaign addressed the topic of illegal immigration in speeches,
    commercials, ads, or campaign materials? What are those messages? (Please provide
    sources or examples) Visit www.mchenryforcongress.com
    <http://www.mchenryforcongress.com/> and look at the issues section for my full
    immigration statement.



    What do you feel your opponent's stance on illegal immigration or immigration reform
    is or would be?

    The Rutherford County newspaper, the Daily Courier, reported on 10/17/06: "Carsner
    said that he is against amnesty for illegal aliens but supports a guest-worker
    program."

    Have you been endorsed by or received contributions from any other immigration
    reform or illegal immigration reduction groups at this time?

    Not at this time.

    Would you openly accept an endorsement and or contribution from ALIPAC?
    Yes, and I was proud to receive your endorsement in my last campaign.


    Please use the remainder of this space to share any further opinions on these
    issues. (optional)



    -------------------------------

    Candidate Pledge

    I, Patrick McHenry, hereby pledge to stand with the American public to have the US
    Border secured and existing immigration laws enforced with the intention of reducing
    the number of illegal aliens entering and remaining in the US. I understand that the
    vast majority of Americans want the border secured, taxpayer benefits for illegal
    aliens ended, local police helping to enforce immigration laws, and employers that
    hire, aid, and abet illegal aliens to be charged.

    Furthermore, I will not support any trade agreement or Executive Branch treaty that
    compromises our ability to enforce our existing immigration laws and threatens US
    sovereignty.

    I will actively oppose any attempt to remove or replace the current laws that say
    illegal aliens are to be deported with a guest worker or temporary worker program
    that allows illegal aliens to stay or quickly return to the US.

    Signed,

    Patrick McHenry
