[StBernard] Amnesty is not immigration reform

[Westley Annis]

Perhaps David forgets it was "The Great Communicator" himself who signed an
"amnesty" bill.

	One issue that the liberal media and the Democrats would absolutely
love to capitalize on is "immigration reform." For these folks, that means
nothing more than amnesty.
	
	What they forget is that in 2007, when I helped lead a small group
of senators to defeat Ted Kennedy's amnesty bill, a majority of Americans
opposed amnesty for illegal aliens.
	
	I believe we need to lead by pushing for real immigration reform:
better securing our borders, a better naturalization process for immigrants
who are trying to become citizens the right way, and enabling states and
cities with the ability to enforce the immigration laws already on the
books.
	
	Selling out our principles wholesale for potential political
expediency is not the answer.
	
	Rest assured, I'll keep fighting for our voice to be heard.
