| I saw an anti-immigration ad on the Billings Gazette website the other day, which was sponsored by an organization called NumbersUSA.
After some digging around on the NumbersUSA website, I found something interesting. NumbersUSA gives both Max Baucus and Jon Tester a B+ grade on immigration issues.
They give Dennis Rehberg a C+.

What brings Rehberg down in their scoring is this:
Cosponsoring H.R. 2414 to grant amnesty to illegal aliens
Rep. Rehberg is a cosponsor of H.R. 2414 to encourage more illegal immigration by rewarding certain illegal aliens who work in agriculture with amnesty.
Which is interesting, considering the fact that Rehberg has tried to frame himself as anti-immigration/Mr. Protect-Our-Borders. In a 2007 press release, he said:
"Montanans, and Americans, have said they want real enforcement and they want immigrants entering our county to enter legally, without cutting corners. An immigrant's first act in America shouldn't be an illegal one. I oppose this legislation and I'll work to find a sensible solution here in the House."
Seems like amnesty for illegal aliens would fall under the category of "cutting corners."
This is just another example of Rehberg saying one thing to Montanans and doing another in Congress. Classic.
Enough already, Dennis. Show us a new party trick. |
