A Bill You Might Be Interested In

Posted by Randy | February 04, 2016

I recently cosponsored the SAFE for America Act (H.R. 2278), which eliminates the visa lottery system that currently awards permanent resident visas based on pure luck instead of merit, potentially opening the door to those who want to enter the U.S. to harm citizens.

Citizenship is not a right, but a privilege. I will keep you posted on the progress of this bill.

I also supported the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act, which restricts travel to the United States by ending visa-free entry to those who qualify for the visa waiver program – specifically those who have visited countries of concern and state sponsors of terrorism, such as Syria, Iraq, and Iran, as of March 1, 2011. Take a look at the bill text, here.

Randy, what have you done to advance the Voting Rights Acts rewrite that directly affects AMERICAN CITIZENS? I find it appalling congressman, that you are totally asleep on this when you personally are benefiting, unjustly, from a redistricting that was done with racist motives specifically to protect you politically. I find it appalling congressman that you are silent on this issue that clearly discriminates against your own constituents.
