Speech #1100068931

Mr. President. in my last election my constituents sent me a couple of clear messages. one of which was do something about illegal immigration. In my State. we have a majority of people who are entering the country illegally coming across the border from Mexico. creating huge environmental problems. law enforcement problems. people victimized on both sides. costs to the State. lawlessness literally on street corners. The people of my State are saying: What is happening to our country when we cant enforce the laws at the border? Are we not a sovereign country? They have a point. We understand politically that in order for us to enforce the law. we have to have an enforceable law.
