Thread: Reply from Senator Vitter

Dear Ms. XXXXXX,

Thank you for contacting me in opposition to amnesty for illegal aliens. I appreciate you sharing your views with me , and I agree with you 100 percent .


I llegal immigration must be controlled, and I am firmly opposed to amnesty. Amnesty sends the wrong message - that of a reward - to those who have been evading our laws. Also, it is extremely unfair to all of the legal immigrants who came to this nation and obeyed our laws to become citizens.


You may be pleased to know that I offered an amendment to remove the amnesty provisions from the Kennedy immigration bill . My amendment would have eliminat ed the Z Visa amnesty provisions in the legislation that would give illegal aliens legal status . Z Visas are amnesty - pure and simple . Unfortunately, my amendment was defeated , but I assure you I will continue to fight to curtail illegal immigration .


I strongly believe that we need to dramatically improve our border security by having more agents patrolling our borders and making major investments in infrastructure improvements, such as strategic fencing and increased detention space. Congress and the p resident should focus on securing our borders and strengthening our interior enforcement , not rewarding law breakers with amnesty .


Once again, thank you for contacting me to share your thoughts on this important issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future about other issues important to you .

Sincerely,

Senator David Vitter
United States Senator

I faxed him an "atta boy" to let him know America is behind him.
