The one area where Gillibrand needs to change

[Still Sensible]

is the immigration battle. Sure, I'm not thrilled that she is so pro-NRA. I actually like that she would love to have a balenced budget--but she better save that one til after the economy recovers. No, the one area where she has been dead wrong is the immigration issue.

From Alternet:

"Gillibrand—endorsed by the National Riffle Association and the recipient of a high grade from an anti-immigrant group called NumbersUSA—is not an encouraging pick for the immigrant community.

According to her website, Gillibrand opposes a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants and co-sponsored the Secure America through Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act in 2007. The SAVE Act aimed at reducing the inflow of undocumented immigrants by increasing border security and internal enforcement and complete the fence along the border."

I don't have any problem with people who want to secure our borders, although I don't believe the border fence is the answer for a whole host of reasons. But she is on the wrong side of the issue to deny all illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.
