Little State - Big Problems
Rhode Island's Bi-Partisan Response
On the record with Greta Van Susteren -- Fox News -- September 9
Greta: Two state representatives from the state of Rhode Island – one Democrat and one Republican – they are not in Rhode Island tonight but they are in Arizona tonight. They just had a meeting with Governor Jan Brewer about illegal immigration. So what happened? ...Representative Palumbo... what happened at your meeting?
Rep. Palumbo: ...We had a full day today... If there is one message that is loud and clear it is that they need some serious help from our federal government.
Rep. Trillo: The federal government is not only letting the State of Arizona down -- it is a serious problem down here – but they are letting all the rest of the states down by not securing the border.
Greta: ...What is more intriguing is that you are from two different parties – one is a Democrat and one is a Republican.
Rep. Palumbo: ...It is time to get together and work together, Greta... no such thing as a border state anymore... thanks to the work of the people in Arizona, they are getting tough on illegals and they are heading our way... they are affecting us to somewhere between 150 and 350 million dollars a year... these programs are outrageous when we have over 12 percent unemployment.
