Deport Illegals and Secure our Borders

Representative Lois Frankel
U.S. House of Representatives, 1037 Longworth House Office Building
Washington, FL 20515

Dear Representative Frankel,
Please do not support Rep. McCaul's efforts to include his border legislation, H.R.1417, as part of the solution to end the border surge. The bill would weaken current law and give the Senate an opportunity to attach the Gang of Eight's amnesty to the deal.

Rep. McCaul's bill is not the answer. The American people need a solution that forces Pres. Obama to begin the immediate deportation of illegal aliens. Until Pres. Obama can prove to Congress and the American people that he will enforce the laws already on the books, he shouldn't be given a blank check, nor should Congress pass a bill that would weaken existing law.

The McCaul border bill, H.R.1417, only requires DHS to submit a plan to secure high-traffic border areas and eventually the entire Southern border. What about our Northern border? What about our maritime borders? Under existing law, the federal government must make every effort to prevent ALL illegal border crossings, but by focusing solely on the Southern border, Rep. McCaul's bill would actually make matters worse.

Please do not support any efforts to include H.R.1417 as part of the solution to the ongoing border crisis.
Looking for your support,

Lynn Anderson
