Alabama Senator Sessions Leading the Way to Smart Immigration Reform

As the Senate prepares to vote on a massive 600 page plus immigration bill, the warning lights are flashing red.

The Heritage Foundation, a right of center Washington think tank, has a study showing that the Senate "compromise" bill may allow up to 100 million new immigrants over the next 20 year.

Senator Jeff Sessions, (R-AL) makes a similar warning:
“Until now, most of us have focused on securing the border and deciding how to treat the illegal alien population already in the United States,” Sessions said. “Few, if any, of us have looked ahead to see what the long-term numerical impact of the bill would be. My staff and I have just completed such a study, and the results are shocking.”
Read the rest here.

I hope that Senator Sessions is succesful in putting the issue before the Senate for full consideration before any vote is taken.

Stay tuned!
