Support group's effort for immigration reform

Daily Courier, Grants Pass
Letter

In a desperate attempt to bolster his standing with Hispanics in the last election, President Barack Obama issued an executive form of the Dream Act. He did it by fiat, because Congress wasn’t foolish enough to do it legislatively. Unfortunately, this unwise act of the president’s will remain in effect until a federal court overturns it.

In Oregon, the president’s idiocy was compounded by the unimaginative and pathetic pathological follower, Gov. John Kitzhaber.

Kitzhaber boarded the president’s bandwagon and began an effort to grant driving privileges to beneficiaries of Obama’s questionable dream act. Then, in a wave of blinding stupidity, the Oregon Legislature passed a bill, Senate Bill 833. The governor signed it, and the act of putting illegal aliens dangerously behind the wheel in Oregon began in earnest.

Fortunately for legal residents of Oregon, a group has come forward to restore sanity, protect the sanctity of citizenship and preserve a sense of legality on the state’s streets and highways. That group is Oregonians for Immigration Reform. OFIR has begun to circulate a petition to get a referendum on the November ballot for the purpose of putting an end to all of this legislative nonsense – and they need your help.

Straight thinking citizens of Oregon urge voters to save themselves from the whims of misguided public officials and get behind OFIR. Urge your friends and neighbors to sign their petitions. Support the effort to restore sanity to Oregon’s highways – support and stand with OFIR. Their website is http://www.oregonir.org.
