-------------------------------
Candidate Pledge
I, Kenneth Wegner, 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,
Kenneth Wegner_______________________________
