A Letter

Cheree from IFIRE just asked us to submit letters that she will read to her Indiana Senators on the subject of illegal immigration. Here's mine...

Dear Senators,

While our nation has had a proud tradition of immigration, that immigration served to create new patriotic citizens, not low wage serfs. As we move forward as a nation will we maintain the egality that was the wonder of the world, or bow to greedy business owners who demand illegal workers at slave wages passing callously the costs of those workers to average Americans who struggle to make ends meet.

The time to act is now. Let us pursue legislation that is truly in our proudest traditions. Legislation that rewards the hard work of American citizens. Legislation that rightly protects American citizens over those who have come here illegally. Most of all legislation that moves us closer to that fundamental truth of the American dream...

All men are created equal.

With respect,
Brian Jacobsen
