One of the most divisive issues of the
last Congress is set to return after the new one convenes next

of a new bipartisan move to press for comprehensive reform that
would provide a clear path to citizenship for many of the 12
million illegal immigrants already in this country... |

The
truth of illegal immigration
As an Independent voter, I hold no allegiance
to any party or politics. I believe in voting based on the facts.
With that said I'm going to give you the facts and let you decide
what effects illegal immigration is having on America. There
are few if any topic that are in such hot debate as illegal immigration.

Station is down to less than half of what is normal, ABP reports.

To
curb invasion, pressure native countries
When I used to arrest illegal aliens
during my many years with the former INS, I often felt empathy
for many of them. They were and are victims of the corruption,
both economic as well as political, found in great abundance
in their home countries And while most articles on illegal immigration
focus on illegals who are citizens of Mexico... |

The
Great Illegal Immigration Myth of '06
Since the election, you may have heard
pro-amnesty Republicans or liberals saying something like this,
"The 2006 election proves that being tough on illegal immigration
doesn't work as a political issue. Look at J.D. Hayworth, John
Hostettler, Randy Graf and Henry Bonilla. After that debacle,
the GOP is surely going to cave on illegal immigration now." |

Invaders'
jobs vanish with housing slowdown
The gold rush came in drywall, laminate
flooring and granite countertops, and Amilcar Guzman came with
it. -- Guzman left El Salvador at age 18 in 1999 and landed in
Manassas. Soon he had $15- an- hour jobs cutting lumber, driving
nails and running a Bobcat loader. He got a car, got married.

Will
taxpayers now pay legal bills of invaders?
The immigration bill passed by the U.S.
Senate in May 2006 not only would have granted amnesty to millions
of illegal aliens, but it would also have required an amnesty-seeker
to have a lawyer and forced taxpayers to provide one. -- Although
the bill did not become law, the election of Democratic majorities
in both Houses... |
