DeMint Statement on Immigration Deal

May 17th, 2007 - Washington, D.C. - Today, U.S. Senator DeMint made the following statement:

“I hope we don't take a thousand page bill written in secret and try to ram it through the Senate in a few days. This is a very important issue for America and we need time to debate it.”

“But the little we do know about the bill is troubling. According to reports, the bill contains a new 'Z Visa' that allows those who entered our country illegally to stay here permanently without ever returning home. This rewards people who broke the law with permanent legal status, and puts them ahead of millions of law-abiding immigrants waiting to come to America. I don't care how you try to spin it, this is amnesty.”

Answer 2

Some of the Republican law makers have spoken out with their displeasure of the Bill. I am a Republican and you may go to my question and get a pretty good grasp for my feelings about it. It has been my experience as a 30 year veteran of law enforcement on the Ca. Az. Mexico border that illegals don't even register their cars. What makes Congress think they will come forward and pay a fine and register themselves. They will keep doing what they are doing.

Answer 3

Veto it. Perhaps the citizens of the country should march on Washington and demand real reform that requires each and every one of them to go back home and apply for entry. My wife and her family waited 5 1/2 years for their turn so don't slap me with the "anti immigrant" label. I'm anti-illegal immigration and I want the law enforced.

Answer 4

I am hardly surprised that Bush stands with every other elected official in the US in thwarting the will of the American People on the issue of illegal immigration.

He /should/ veto the bill, but he obviously won't.

Answer 5

I disagree with anything Bush does. The House still has to accept this bill, I understand. I hope it goes to file 13 from there.

Answer 6

Those that know me, know I support this President in all of his initiatives EXCEPT for this issue and we break on this issue. I have written my representatives and have already communicated my displeasure with this agreement. Yes I want it vetoed.

Answer 8

I've heard many claim that they don't like the bill. The Senate pretty much has agreed to pass it. It will find its greatest opposition with the House and the Citizens.

Answer 9

It benefits big business so the rest of the repubs will belly right up to the trough and drink the slop that is drafted by Kennedy and McCain.

Answer 10
