Immigration and Religion
Citizen that Church Leaders (from all denominations) are (often
against the will of the faithful) continuing to involve the Church and
Church members in the secular battle over Amnesty, Open Borders,

myself likewise devoted to our constitution. The Founders wisely made
provision for the advancement of faith, without the… Continue

Action Alert: Republican Lunch 05/25/2010

Texas & Immigration Enforcement
a big immigration enforcement push before memorial day. I'd like to ask
that all of you get involved and stay involved in this issue. Indeed, I

and Federal level. Please consider… Continue

FYI: The battle over amnesty
drawn out and contentious, just wait until the Obama Administration
rams Comprehensive Immigration Reform and Amnesty down our throats?

Action Alert: Follow the Arizona example
enforcement legislation. With the major focus of Obama socialists now
shifting to the issue of amnesty and opening our borders, it's
important that we all apply pressure to our state officials to
implement legislation to stop the egregious flow of immigrants into our
nation.
Indeed, there are no problems confronting America's citizens, taxpayers
and workers that would not be measurably… Continue

Action Alert: Implementing E-Verify at the local level

local efforts to address the problems…
