		<description>Scott Brown is not against legal immigrants.  I believe he has stated very clearly he is opposed to illegal aliens (NOT immigrants, NOT undocumented workers, ILLEGAL aliens, aka criminals), the lack of enforcement of existing laws to protect US citizens from their increasing intrusion, and providing entitlement benefits and rights of citizenship for them at great expense to the legal, taxpaying citizens of Massachusetts and the nation.  I agree wholeheartedly.  That&#039;s why, as a co-founder of Speak Up and Matter, we are sponsoring an online petition at http://www.gopetition.com/online/32890.html opposing Deval Patrick&#039;s &quot;New Americans Agenda&quot; which threatens to do all those things, if allowed to evolve from &quot;proposals to legislation.  Please take a well-spent moment to sign the petition and protect yourselves and your families.</description>

		<description>SHARP EYE ON STATE IMMIGRATION LAWS.

Around Washington their is a ominous quiet regarding the move towards Comprehensive Immigration Reform. But we should not take this lightly and specially be on watch not just the for laws being loosened in the House and Senate, but at the State and county levels. Take note that sanctuary states like California, New Mexico  are not implementing Federal laws but are arrogant enough to dismiss them.  Many State assemblies have made decisions that doesn&#039;t recognize the interests of the 15 million Americans jobless, but are as-always pandering to Special Interest groups. States across this nation will continue to tangle with the issues such as providing in-state tuition to illegal aliens, requiring businesses to run new hires through  E-Verify, the local police trained to arrest illegal aliens under the 287 (g) law, flash ICE raids on nonconforming businesses  and implementing  the REAL ID compliant drivers licensing among other enforcement issues. Indiana began work this week on a new bill that would require state and local government agencies to use E-Verify.

Now is the time to make E-Verify a permanent, fully funded mandated operation for every business in America. NUMBERSUSA, a anti-illegal immigrant, pro-sovereignty organisation will be alerting their members in  Arizona, California, Colorado, Indiana, Michigan, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Texas and Washington  in determining  a number of  local voting initiatives. Opponents including the devious ACORN, SEIU and even the AFL-CIO are mobilizing to promote AMNESTY for illegal aliens in different States. As this is not seen as Federal Immigration laws, State Liberal Assemblies could try to pass initiatives including In-State tuition, drivers licenses and other immigration issues. We all know that CALIFORNIA, carries the infamous stain of being the master SANCTUARY STATE, where the the governor is fighting a daily battle with almost bottomless financial crisis, caused impart by the pandering to illegal families. In the majority of cases there has been no restriction in hiring of illegal workers, free education for the children, free medical treatment in any hospital, welfare entitlements and the enormous taxpayer costs to incarcerate thousands of illegal foreign criminals. Many other states are teetering on the edge of dangerous fiscal collapse, because of the occupancy of 20 to 30 million impoverished illegal people who are being supported by taxpayers.

IF DEMOCRATS GET THERE WAY THIS YEAR, THEY WILL FORCE UPON US ALL AN AMNESTY,  THAT WILL COST  ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNTS  OF DOLLARS TO  INITIATE? WE NEED REAL ENFORCEMENT AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO SPEAK UP. Call the Washington Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and asked for your Representatives. Also call your State Senator? GET INVOLVED AND LEARN THE TRUTH AND NOT OPEN BORDER PROPAGANDA AT NUMBERSUSA AND JUDICIAL WATCH. STOP UNSUSTAINABLE  OVERPOPULATION IN OUR FUTURE.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an independent voter and I&#039;m beyond furious with the crap the democrats have shoved down our throats these last 12 months. My leanings are to the left of center. If they push any type of immigration reform other than enforcing the laws that exist and making it even more difficult for law breakers - I will vote the entire republican ticket next elections. It won&#039;t be a vote for the republicans - it will be a vote against the democrats.</description>

		<description>Thomas, it isn’t necessary to be condescending and label people with names and insults. I “assume” you were on the losing side this week and that is all you have for a comeback. 

To say “California’s poor management is arguably bipartisan” when 74 of their 120 state legislatures are democrats and they have basically been in control since the 1970’s is specious at best, and ignorant at worst. &quot;New York, perhaps not so much?&quot; A little understating are we? New York is dominated by democrats! 
Check your facts.</description>

		<description>Patrick old boy, those states have the highest percentage of undocumented immigrants because they have the most vibrant economies.  They are &quot;on the verge of bankruptcy&quot; because of decades of poor management.  In California that poor management is arguably bipartisan; in NY perhaps not so much, but blaming all of NY, CA, or America&#039;s ills is specious at best, and bigoted at worst.  Check your assumptions.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m an Independent and I voted for Scott Brown specifically because he is against a path to citizenship for illegal aliens.  Why do you think states with the highest populations of illegals (California, NY etc.) are on the verge of bankruptcy?</description>
