"Stop the Stampede"

                           Stampede Party

We feel border security is a top priority:Our country can not afford to keep housing illegal immigrants. Immigration studies has recently reported that our immigrant population is now 37 million, up from 27 million in 1997. 1 in 3 of these immigrants is here illegally. More immigrants mean more opportunities for terrorists, drug dealers, and other criminals. Poor immigrants consume a high amount of government resources (health care, education, welfare). Illegal immigrants are not “victims” who need us to rescue them.  Yes many are hard working and only wanting a better life as those in every country do. More than 600,000 state and local law enforcement officers come in contact with illegal aliens everyday, yet few are turned in to the US Immigration and Customs  Enforcement. If we want to stop this problem, we need to heighten our border security.
