Come November, PLEASE remember those politicians who have been valiantly trying to stem the flow of illegals, and those, who, let's just say, have been undermining those efforts.
Ellen Koivisto has tried to pass legislation that would revoke the business licences of those who hire illegals. What was passed was, unfortunately, a very watered down law.
In Arizona, they passed a similar, but much stronger law, with FANTASTIC results; the illegals are fleeing like rats jumping ship and the law has survived court challenges brought on by the usual suspects-i.e. the ACLU and LaRaza.
Unfortunately, here in Nevada, your Attorney General, Catherine Cortez Masto, has determined that the current aforementioned anti-illegal immigration law is "unconstitutional", because immigration is a "federal" issue.
So, even though WE and our children are the ones who suffer from the devastating effects of illegals who brazenly trample our language, culture and borders on a daily basis, Ms. Cortez-Masto's decision essentially means that this impact is still not enough; illegal immigrants are NOT to be restrained locally, by we, the people.
And, please remember that her decision also allows anchor babies living in households with illegals to collect all sorts of welfare and other government "entitlements"-all on your dime.
In short, you, the people of Nevada have been told, once again, that when it comes to illegal immigration, your only solution is to rely on the federal government and beyond that, well, you can just SHUT UP.
It is a sad, sad day in Nevada when our state's number one law enforcement officer cannot be relied upon to protect law-abiding American citizens, and instead, sides with the illegal alien lobby, thus making it even more difficult to get rid of these people!
I hope in November that you will remember those politicians whose stances have helped and hindered our efforts to save our state from the invasion of illegals.
Call your state reps-let them know that you want Arizona-style legislation that will revoke business licenses from those who hire illegals, one that will withstand the attacks from state politicians with a pro-illegal agenda.
And, of course, let them know (respectfully!) that you vote.
