~From the desk of the Candidate~

Press Release

Fixing illegal immigration has more to do with motivation than complexity, according to one 11th District Republican Congressional Candidate. "Congress, the media, and illegal immigration supporters obfuscate solutions as a means to evading action," says Asheville City Councilman Carl Mumpower. "This is the greatest law breaking scheme in America's history - supported by greed, self-service, complacency, and intellectual dishonesty."

"Throughout WNC we have industries, small businesses, and construction sites that routinely hire non-English speaking people without screening their legal status," said Mumpower. "It is a felony to use a fake social security card or other identification, but it happens all the time with little or no accountability - even for those who break other laws." "Illegal immigrants, those who employ them, and their supporters get away with things that real citizens cannot and that would never be tolerated in Mexico."

So what are the solutions? According to Mumpower it comes down to three words - "enforcing existing laws". "No matter how much people wring their hands; this is where the action is." "Until we, as a country, get serious about enforcing our laws, making new ones and building fences will find us continuing to spin our wheels until it is too late." "A secure border to border fence would have to be built like the Berlin Wall to work, and I don't see America putting mine fields and tower guards with sniper rifles between us and Mexico." There are places that a fence can help - a lot - but if you leave the bait out - jobs made available by those employ illegal aliens - the whole thing becomes a sham."

"I look forward to illuminating the nonsense in Washington and taking on the appeasement artists who put out decoys to distract us from what really matters," said Mumpower. "The most effective fence is consequence."
