Obama’s Political Gesture Is Good Sign — But Not Close To What Is Necessary To Secure Borders

By Roy Beck

Pres. Obama definitely blinked today in the face-off between pro-enforcement and pro-amnesty Americans. His announcement of sending 1,200 National Guard troops to the border and asking for an extra half-billion dollars for border security shows that he and his advisors are acknowledging that most Americans sided with Arizona Gov. Brewer and against the Obama Administration … Continued

A newsletter I subscribe to sent out an alert last week entitled “Evangelical Leaders Unite on Just Assimilation Immigration Policy.” With heightened interest I began reading about how the law in Arizona is a response to the federal government’s failure, that we need a rational immigration policy, that we are a nation of laws, and … Continued

Schumer’s Amnesty Rat Race

By Joe Jenkins

Yesterday, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) took the extraordinary step of writing a letter to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, asking her to delay implementation of Arizona’s new immigration law in order to give the Senate a chance to pass comprehensive immigration reform. The Governor’s quick reply: “No.” Sen.

New Senate Bill Is Same Old Amnesty With More Lies (as I noted on PBS NewsHour tonight)

By Roy Beck
