What do you think Tancredo Blasts Dem Plan to Attach Amnesty Riders to Defense Bill?
“Piggy-backing amnesty legislation onto a defense bill is completely unacceptable and a slap in the face to Americans,” Tancredo said. “One would think the open-borders crowd had learned their lesson by now.”
Senator Durbin, who in 2005 compared troops to “Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime — Pol Pot or others — that had no concern for human beings” during a Senate floor speech, is attempting to add a provision that would enable illegal aliens to access taxpayer-subsidized tuition benefits. Senator Feinstein is attempting to attach a provision that would provide a blanket amnesty to 2 million illegal aliens. The controversial provisions would be tacked on to a must-pass Defense Authorization bill.
In the letter, Tancredo asked Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) to put an end to efforts in the Senate to attach any measures to unrelated legislation that would reward illegal aliens with amnesty or allow them increased access to publicly funded benefits.
“Using a military bill – when we have troops in the field – as a vehicle for trying to sneak these kinds of unpopular measures by the public would be a terrible mistake,” said Tancredo. “Providing amnesty or taxpayer funded benefits is bad enough – but attempting to pass such measures on the backs of the military would be perhaps the most cynical attempt at parliamentary gimmickry in recent history. The American public and the military deserve better.”http://www.tancredo.house.gov/prarticle.

We have to watch every bill these traitors have before them to make sure they aren't attaching things that have nothing at all to do with the original bill. They will try to slip it in any way they can and hope we don't notice.
From next year summer, Koreans can come to US without a VISA? Why is US immigration doing this?
If only Tancredo had a real chance to win. I think I will vote for him anyway. He would be the best president ever!
Tancredo is right. Reid is a cowardly traitor and I would love to see him locked away in the worst prison in Siberia for life. Let Congress vote on immigration issues in immigration bills, not in military funding bills. Reid is a disgrace to this nation.
Immigration Amendments Loom on Upcoming Bills, Session Says

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., a leading immigration policy critic, said Wednesday that amendments planned for upcoming legislation could put more than 4 million illegal immigrants on a path to citizenship.
That is about one-third of the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants who would have benefited from the comprehensive immigration overhaul bill (S 1639) he helped kill earlier this year, Sessions said.
Sessions warned colleagues in a letter that legislation (S 774) labeled the DREAM Act that would allow states to provide college benefits to illegal immigrants could be offered as an amendment to the fiscal 2008 Defense appropriations bill (HR 3222) later this month. The measure could benefit 1.3 million illegal immigrants.
Why does Hillary think we will let her tax oil when we will pay higher prices?
It would be nice if more of our senators thought about illegal immigration like Tancredo does. Anyway my opinion is the same as Tancredos,but also I was unaware that there would be any illegals that would want to serve our country in the first place,I was made to think that they (LaRaza) wanted to take over America,not become a part of it?And the other illegals are crimminals,I didnt know crimminals could serve?And the rest are just poor uneducated,they couldnt pass boot camp,so in other words the this is a trick to allow amnesty?

Tancredo, Ron Paul, and Hunter have the most conservative voting records on immigration.

Of these three, Ron Paul has the best chance of winning the Primary election.
Paul's campaign has almost 4 times as much money to spend as Tancredo.

Ron Paul has stated that he wants very strong borders and he was appalled that our government had taken border guards off of our borders to send them to Iraq.
