Republicans in Senate acted like cowards on illegal immigration
April 14, 2015

DEAR EDITOR:

Non-vulgar words mostly cannot express the disgust and sense of betrayal I, and probably a slew of other Georgians, feel about allowing illegals to get driver’s licenses! Also access to public benefits and unemployment. Outrageous! Insane! Is it now possible said group will be allowed to VOTE even if they can’t speak English??!!!

After reading D. A King’s article in Sunday’s MDJ, I am severely castigating the Georgia Senate for their cowardly way of dealing with these interrelated issues. Making sure that those responsible in a Senate dominated with Republicans could not be held accountable seems slimy.

What a bunch of liars to promise that pro-enforcement of immigration laws would be a priority and then making us look like fools to believe them!

Are the “undocumented” that badly needed to help complete the $1-plus billion transportation projects approved by the Legislature? Do we really need to encourage illegal activity in our communities just to pander to special interests? Yes, the questions are redundant, but the repercussions will be more obvious.
