HOBBS, NM – According to FoxNews, the Obama administration is considering bypassing Congress to grant legal status to millions of illegal immigrants. (Judson Berger, “Source: Administration Weighs Bypassing Congress to Let Illegal Immigrants Stay,” FoxNews.com, June 25, 2010)
Former Congressman Steve Pearce issued the following statement on the proposal:
“I believe it is entirely wrong to grant blanket legalization. We must take comprehensive steps to secure our border and solve the immigration issue.
What we see is a leadership vacuum on immigration reform in Washington. I hear frustration in every community I visit. The process is deeply flawed and the problem continues to build. Americans want a comprehensive solution. This will make things worse not better.
The Administration’s plan to grant mass amnesty would be an admission that it never had any intention of dealing with this issue honestly or comprehensively. It also explains why it has been late and never serious about border security.”
