Sheila Jackson Lee Supports Unlimited Immigration
First let me state my position on immigration issues. I believe as I have stated before that there are two separate issues, closing the border and legalizing in a realistic manner those who are already here. We have some obligation to them other than the drastic “send them back”. We allowed them to come here, we use their services and we allowed them to stay in most cases long enough to settle in, buy property have children and take a shot at living normal lives as any citizen by birth.
Now read the article linked below. It is informative. And eye opening.
“Yet, even in the face of stark reality, black leadership organizations did not support restrictions on immigration. In fact, by the end of the 1990s, they opposed restrictions outright. The pattern among black elites — politicians, academics, community leaders — consistently has been to make alliances with other elites, in order to insure support for their ever-expanding demands on establishment whites. These blacks continued to nurse the notion that any alliances with other “minorities” would give them greater power in the race intimidation game being played out against the white adversary.”
“In the realm of pandering black elites, there is no more notorious public figure than Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who represents the 18th District in Texas, and is the ranking member of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, Claims. Jackson Lee, who, for good reason, in 1998, was named the “biggest windbag in Congress” by the Washingtonian magazine, never tires of repeating that worn-out cliché about America being a “nation of immigrants.” Hence, we should relax and play our proper role as host to the teeming masses of the planet.”
