Illegal Immigrant Problem

Open email to Congress:

Dear Members of Congress,
    The Washington Times says that five dozen immigration rights activists picketed outside Rep. Frank R. Wolf’s Herndon office Wednesday, demanding he vote for a bill that would extend citizenship rights to 11 million illegal immigrants — a scene that is being repeated outside countless Republican congressional district offices this summer. With chances for a bill seemingly slipping in Washington, the activists have vowed to take their fight to lawmakers at home during the congressional recess. They have vowed to hold meetings, stage protest marches and make themselves heard by lawmakers and the voters who elected them.
    My first reaction to this is that you deserve the heat. You let in these 11 million illegals, and now you have to deal with it. If you had taken some action earlier, you could have at least cut down on the number and had less problem.
    With that chastisement out of the way, what's to do about it now? Nothing. There will always be people wanting free stuff, and since they have plenty of time and energy not being required to work, they are in a position to wave and scream the loudest. The more those people you have previously encouraged, the louder will be the din. However, this is not to say that you should agree to their demands. The people of Greece and Spain have conducted similar demonstrations for free stuff in the past year, because they were previously led into the situation by their governments, similar to what you have done. But, they have found that there must be a stopping point. This is it for us!
