News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Myrick to re-introduce immigration DWI bill

U.S. Representative Sue Myrick will re-introduce the Scott Gardner Act in Congress on Tuesday. Gardner was a Gaston County teacher and father who was killed two years ago by a drunk driver. The driver was an illegal immigrant with five prior drunk driving arrests.

Monday, Gardner’s mother, Emily Moose, and several other victims of similar crimes gathered in Uptown Charlotte to show their support for the bill.

“In the United States 13 people are killed every day by illegal immigrants driving drunk and it is time for it to stop,” Moose said.
