Numbers USA, a group that wants to lower immigration levels, awarded Gowdy an A- grade, in part for working to reduce the diversity visa lottery and what they call “amnesty entitlements.”According to the group, “Amnesties go farther than most incentives for illegal immigration because they make it impossible for illegal aliens to be forced to go back home. Amnesties reward the illegal alien with the pathway to U.S. citizenship. Millions of illegal aliens have been made part of the permanent, legal population of America since 1986.”http://abcnews.go.com/ABC_Univision/Politics/south-carolina-rep-gowdy-named-immigration-subcommittee-chair/story?id=18009450#.UNH5Zonjki4By Emily Deruy in ABC News Univision ABC
