Dear Mr. President, Mr. Vice President and People of the Senate,
I am writing you after learning that $247 million has been requested in the budget to implement a Temporary Guest Worker Program for illegal aliens in our country, while only $153 million is being requested for immigration enforcement and voluntary employer verification of worker eligibility. I urge you to reject this proposal.
With all due respect, this proposal is insane. Americans are already paying billions of dollars each and every year because the federal government has ignored our country’s immigration laws. And now you want more of our money so you can reward illegal aliens for breaking our laws? As an American who voted for you twice, Mr. President, I am appalled. Illegal aliens cost us too much as it is, and they are taking our jobs. Between the years 2000 and 2004, approximately 1.8 million jobs were created. However, the jobs held by native born Americans during that time period actually DECREASED by half a million. Jobs held by the foreign born, including illegal aliens, rose by 1.3 million. Americans are actually being displaced because our government refuses to enforce our country’s laws!! Under those circumstances, how can any United States politician promote legalizing, temporary or otherwise, illegal alien workers? You were all elected to look after your constituents’ best interests, not that of illegal aliens’.
