Kansas Senate Bill 458, "Comprehensive Immigration Reform", died in committee yesterday.
This bill would enact harsh penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal aliens ("undocumented workers" to the leftist media).
We need to try to push this through again next year.
I'll be campaigning for it all summer. If you live in KS, call your state Rep and Senator to let them know you want it "revived" next year.

I love to discuss political philosophy. The problem I have is that liberals often assume I'm conservative and convserervatives often assume I'm liberal. It's because I'm neither. I'm libertarian, which means I believe in both social and economic freedom. I don't do personal attacks. I won't respond to yours, and I won't initiate one against you. So save yourself some time if you're thinking of flaming me!
