FAIR "Hold Their Feet to the Fire" Radio Row ... >
|
April 10, 2014 - The Federation
for American Immigration Reform (FAIR)
held
its eighth annual "Hold
Their Feet to the Fire" talk radio row April 9-10 at the Phoenix Park
Hotel. Members of Congress, several sheriffs and others opposed
to illegal immigration do interviews with radio talk show hosts from
across the country during the event. The aim is "to
secure our borders,
fight for immigration reforms that promote our broad American
goals and to resist special interests demanding
cheap foreign
labor, political gains and expanded government." |

immmigration reform" (+), a very
dfferent view than those seeking "comprehensive immigration reform."
