This week, I joined with the Republican Women's Policy Committee and sent a letter to President Obama urging him to abandon any unconstitutional executive actions on immigration reform and instead work with Congress and the people of this great nation. There is no question that the current immigration system is broken and there is a growing need for reform, but denying members of Congress and the American people an opportunity to offer any input only jeopardizes the chance of finding real, workable solutions. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
