If elected/reelected to Congress I will stop Obama's Department of Justice lawsuits against states like Arizona, South Carolina, and Alabama that are trying to stop illegal immigration with state legislation. (1-10) 10
As a member of Congress I will use the full power of my office, including impeachment if necessary, to ensure the Executive Branch starts to enforce our existing border and immigration laws. (1-10) 10
Illegal Immigrants should be deported when detected in the interior of the US. (1-10) 10

I support Comprehensive Immigration ENFORCEMENT of America's popularly supported existing immigration and border laws, which will reverse illegal immigration in America. (1-10) 10

If elected/reelected to office, I will use the full power of my office to assure all federal employees and elected officials involved with the Gunwalker Fast and Furious Scandal face justice through criminal trials even if the investigation continues to suggest that employees and officials in the White House were involved.

ALIPAC PLEDGE
If elected or re-elected to the US Congress, I will oppose any form of Amnesty or path to citizenship for illegal aliens, including Comprehensive Immigration Reform which would make millions of illegal immigrants voters thus destroying future borders of America. I will use the full power of my office, including impeachment if necessary, to insure the Executive Branch secures America's border immediately and begins to adequately enforce the existing immigration and border laws of the United States, which were enacted by Congress at the behest of America's citizenry. I understand that the failure of the Executive Branch to secure our borders and enforce existing immigration laws is depriving all Americans of a Republican form of government and depriving our states of protection from invasion as mandated by the US Constitution Article 4 Section 4. I will reverse Obama's executive memo instructing federal prosecutors to grant a form of Amnesty to illegal aliens via 'prosecutor discretion' and I will work to assure that all federal employees and office holders (including White House officials and employees) responsible for using US tax monies to buy assault weapons for the organized crime cartels importing illegal aliens and drugs into America will face trial. I intend to use the power of Congress to immediately remedy this problem that is costing many Americans their jobs, wages, taxpayer resources, property, security, and sometimes their very lives.
So help me God,
Richard E. Mourdock
