The new French president has it right about how to handle illegals. Read this article and send it on to your elected reps, maybe they can learn something!
Both Senators in Michigan voted YES on the last Amnesty vote. I e-mailed them both to vote "NO" prior to that vote. I received an e-mail today from Stabenow and she said she voted "NO" because it wouldn't be good for Michigan. She outright lies. She did vote for the Amnesty bill, did she not?

Thank you . . . . . for contacting me about the issue of immigration. I appreciate you sharing your views with me.
As you know, the United States Senate passed legislation last year in response to the serious problems with our nation's immigration system. While I consistently voted for tough enforcement provisions and to provide the resources necessary to secure our borders, I voted against this final bill because it would not have done enough to protect Michigan jobs. Also, I continue to oppose amnesty and Social Security for illegal immigrants.
The Senate has been debating new immigration legislation this year. I oppose this bill for the same reasons I voted against last year's legislation.
President Bush's new guest worker program, contained in both bills, opens our borders to hundreds of thousands of new guest workers every year. Importing cheap foreign labor is wrong for Michigan and wrong for America . We need an effective immigration system that works for businesses and communities and that protects the basic rights of legal immigrants, who are such an important part of our state economy. In the end, this legislation failed to strike the proper balance between security, fairness and preserving Michigan jobs.
Thank you for contacting my office. I will keep your strong views in mind if the Senate considers this issue again. Please continue to keep me informed about issues that are important to you and your family.
