Jason Chaffetz and Immigration Reform
Filed Under Government, Law
The group Americans for Better Immigration rates Jason Chaffetz as a “true immigration reform candidate,” based on his positions on immigration in 12 categories.
Jim Matheson is listed as “more opposed than supportive of overall immigration reductions.” That puts him, according to a poll by the Deseret News, at odds with 3/4 of Utahans over immigration reform.
Maybe we can send two incumbents home this November.
