http://www.onenewsnow.com/Politics/Default.aspx?id=934902One of the most outspoken critics of illegal immigration doesn't believe the healthcare bill should be a launching pad for amnesty.
With the clock ticking towards the November midterm elections, Democrats are pulling out all the stops to pass their massive healthcare bill before lawmakers must head home to campaign. Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa), ranking member of the House Immigration Subcommittee, feels healthcare and amnesty are two of three items on President Obama's agenda that are somewhat linked.
Steve King"Cap and trade, which I call appropriately 'cap and tax,' socialized medicine, and comprehensive amnesty [are the three] -- and if they can move one of those three forward, they think it gives them momentum to move the second one and then the third one," King comments.
"But right now, because healthcare is stalled, that means the comprehensive amnesty legislation is also stalled. But that doesn't mean that the dam doesn't break open and healthcare washes down the road into the White House and [Obama] signs and then they pick up comprehensive amnesty to more or less draft on, like a race car would, onto the healthcare piece. So I'm apprehensive."
The subcommittee member adds that it will be up to the American people to contact their members of Congress and urge them to oppose these radical agenda items that would transform America irreversibly.
