Since this immigration discussion began I have been calling every congressional office i can reach. I do it all day and into the night and I also fax them. I have one issue I am trying to get a response on:
Any process for a pathway to citizenship should include cross checking voter registration roles.

I have spoken with staffers in Rubio's office three times about this and I've listened to him on every talk show that I've been able to follow. He never even mentions this important issue.

One 'conservative' host that supports the Gang of 8 asked; "If an immigrant has crossed the border illegally but lived here long enough to be a productive and law abiding citizen, even owning his own home and paying taxes how is it hurting our liberties?"

I was waiting on the line and never got on. My answer would have been "BY STEALING MY VOTE". That is my whole point about cross checking voter registration both in the past and during the application process. If a person has come here to behave and provide a better life for their family, I can understand compassionate people wanting to give them a chance at legal citizenship. BUT, if they have been participating in democrat vote fraud to put people like Obama, Pelosi and Reid in office they have continued a life of crime and should get the boot in my opinion.

Rubio's office was polite and each time they said they'd relay the message to him. Either they didn't or it doesn't fly with Schumer. I have gotten through to several talk shows where he was a guest, but they never put me on the air. I think it is entirely possible that Rubio goes on only if they agree not to take open mike calls from the public.

There should be no pathway to citizenship. You are buying the premise that there should be one.

One 'conservative' host that supports the Gang of 8 asked; "If an immigrant has crossed the border illegally but lived here long enough to be a productive and law abiding citizen, even owning his own home and paying taxes how is it hurting our liberties?"

How can someone who entered illegally, committed ID theft, stole an SSN, worked illegally, etc. be considered a "productive and law abiding citizen?"

If a person has come here to behave and provide a better life for their family, I can understand compassionate people wanting to give them a chance at legal citizenship. BUT, if they have been participating in democrat vote fraud to put people like Obama, Pelosi and Reid in office they have continued a life of crime and should get the boot in my opinion.

It seems like the vote is the last straw for you. The reality is that we have voter fraud committed by citizens of this country and legal permanent residents (green card holders.) There is little consequence for voter fraud in this country.

Reduce the argument to its lowest terms. Before talking about vote stealing, ask the 'conservative' host how someone whose very first act in this country was to break its laws could somehow be considered a 'law-abiding citizen'.

NO illegal is law-abiding, by the definition of the word, which still means something to some people.
