Rep. Ellmers backs conditional amnesty, fuels primary challenge
Ellmers declared her support for more guest workers and for citizenship for illegals after they complete a number of steps in a Jan. 18 op-ed in the Fayetteville Observer.
“If an individual wants to come to this country to work, to provide for his family and contribute to his community, he should be allowed to do so,” Ellmers wrote.

North Carolina Republican Rep. Renee Ellmers says the federal government should allow illegal immigrants to stay in the United States, and should welcome a new inflow of foreign guest workers.
Her support for foreign workers is fueling a primary bid by Frank Roche, an economics lecturer at nearby Elon University.
At campaign events, any mention of Ellmers’ support for amnesty, Roche told The Daily Caller, ”always gets the crowd roiled up — they do not want it.”

This “would like to be congresswoman” should get the hell out of Washington! Has she bothered to tell her unemployed constituents that she support all things illegal and that the citizens of North Carolina spent 1.75 billion dollars last year on illegal aliens in this state. Yes, I use the word “alien” and I do it factual.
