Texas State Representative Debbie Riddle is ready! She's already filed a voter ID and anti-illegal immigration bills, one of which would allow the arrest of those here illegally under a new trespassing law. Students would have to show proof of citizenship. We'll still have to educate them because of federal rulings, but determining how many are illegal will help the state to calculate how much the taxpayers are spending on these scofflaws. Another of her bills will mandate that all documents printed at taxpayer expense be printed in English only.
Representative Jessica Farrar says the Republicans are "out of touch" by introducing such bills. She says "We need to recover our economy." Well, Rep. Farrar, are you so out of touch that you don't realize that the vast influx of illegals is one of the problems with our economy? Given the results of the recent election, I'd say Rep. Farrar is the one "out of touch."
