Immigration/Amnesty

To Congress,

We had the amnesty discussion two years ago. The vast majority of American citizens vehemently stated they did not want amnesty - no matter what conditions were attached to it. Apparently we are going to have this discussion again.

Congress either does not understand or wishes to ignore the opinions of the American voters. Perhaps Congress feels it just knows better than the average American. Congress, however, is meant to represent the people not override their wishes. Anyone who disregards our laws and comes to this country illegally should not be rewarded with American citizenship.

When did we start rewarding people for breaking laws? We are a nation of laws. We need to respect and obey all our laws. We, especially the government, can not pick and choose which laws we obey.

Signed,
The Electorate
