Freshman Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) added his name to 14 different bills on Thursday that would reduce overall immigration levels and work to end illegal immigration. Rep. Brooks was identified as a “True Reform” Candidate during last year’s mid-term elections, agreeing in the affirmative to all 12 questions on NumbersUSA’s Immigration-Reduction survey.
During the last Congressional recess, Rep. Brooks made some strong statements regarding illegal immigration during a town hall meeting. He also expressed strong support for a recently passed bill in Alabama that requires all businesses to use E-Verify and allows police officers to inquire about an individual’s immigration status if they have reasonable suspicion that the individual is in the country illegally.
Yesterday, Rep. Brooks became a co-sponsor of:
