UPDATED WITH VIDEO OF HEARING HERE.

Know this: The corporate-funded illegal alien lobby is calling right now and will fill the committee room tomorrow spewing their hateful opposition to Georgians getting official stats on crime and immigration status. Your voice is needed!

 

Phone calls and emails (please do it now, the office has voice mail) needed to the Chairman of the House Public Safety Committee, Rep Bill Hitchens. It’s easy to leave a polite message with Rep Hitchens assistant or on the voicemail, something like:

“Please tell the Chairman conservative voters are watching and trust that HB 202 will have no problem passing out of his committee. It is a commonsense public safety proposal. Please thank the Chairman for being a co-sponsor. Only the radical leftists will oppose Rep Petrea’s bill.”

This bill should pass with a unanimous vote. It won’t. The corporate-funded anti-borders lobbyists – some of whom are illegal aliens – will fill the committee room and claim it is “anti-immigrant.”

A very easy to understand one-pager that would require Dept. of Corrections to provide a quarterly, public report on the number of non-citizens in the prison system that indicates immigration status if known, home country, crimes committed and the percentage of the total prison population this non-citizen group represents.

Using the theory that it is difficult to change what we cannot measure, several years of this data would provide great insight into the monetary and human costs and of illegal immigration and serve to educate both the public and the legislators on crime as related to immigration in general.

Sadly, there are lawmakers, lobbyists and media who regard this as “too much information.”

FACT: According to the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute, Georgia is home to more illegal aliens than Lawful Permanent Residents (green card holders).
