The "Top Ten in the House" had the purest record in fighting illegal immigration and in opposing efforts to use overall high immigration numbers to drive down wages and to drive up population growth, congestion, energy use and environmental degradation.

NumbersUSA's grades reflect every recorded floor vote, committee vote and co-sponsorship of bills that would affect overall immigration numbers (both authorized and illegal). The grades cover actions taken in the current Congress and the previous Congress (2005-2008).

You may want to send a fax to congratulate your U.S. Representative for putting American workers and communities first in immigration policies.
