Byrne Statement on Immigration Reform

Washington, DC – January 31, 2014 – Representative Bradley Byrne (AL-1) released the following statement on proposed immigration reform legislation.

Byrne said: “Our immigration system isn’t working. Millions of illegal immigrants reside here today, a situation unfair to the American taxpayer and even more so to legal immigrants who have waited in line and obeyed the law. I will oppose any proposed legislation that would grant amnesty to people who are here in violation of our laws. As this debate moves forward, I will work with my conservative colleagues and my home state Senator Jeff Sessions to advocate for strong and accountable border security protections first, and to force President Obama to do his job enforcing our existing laws.”
