Excerpt from email from
Arizona
Rep. Russell Pearce
December 18 -- I was in Washington DC as an invite
by the Brookings Institute to participate this last Thursday
(12/16/04) on an immigration panel to debate the national policy
on immigration (mostly on children, but certainly extended to
the entire issue of legal, illegal, benefits and the impact on
America, etc.) and while on the panel, I was interrupted
and given a message to call LuAnne in reference to an emergency
at home. I called to find out my son Sean had been shot
while executing a search warrant on a home for homicide suspects,
and was being flown by helicopter to the hospital. I later
learned the suspects and the shooter were illegal aliens
and had been issued matricula
cards so they could get services in the United States.
