SENATOR SESSIONS - 10 MYTHS OF IMMIGRATION REFORM
Senator Jeff Sessions, R-Alabama has talked a lot about one of the hot topics in Washington D.C. His recent comments about the current immigration reform are summed up when he said they are "the same recycled talking points, crafted with the help of the same consultants and special interests," and that the proposed legislation "ensures only the amnesty and not the enforcement."
Continuing, Sessions said the Republican so-called principles "would surge the already unprecedented level of legal lesser-skilled immigration to the U.S. that is reducing wages and increasing unemployment." While the Republican goal should be "to transition millions of struggling Americans from welfare and joblessness to work and rising wages," President Barack Obama's plan is to force "legislation that drastically surges the future flow of new immigrant workers competing against unemployed Americans."
Sessions conveniently summarized the facts about where we are and where we should be going in a 30-page statement. He refutes 10 widely circulated myths that are currently used to deceive the public on this issue.
