Mayors rip Congress on immigration

January 26, 2008

“Cities are getting clobbered by Washington’s failure to reform national immigration policy, a group of mayors said Friday, and they urged Congress to take another look at legislation on the issue before the general election.

“Congress needs to get their heads out of the sand on this particular issue,” said Mayor David Wallace of Sugar Land, co-chair of the U.S. Conference of Mayors’ homeland security task force.”" (Houston Chronicle)
