WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Walter B. Jones (NC-3) released the following statement after yesterday’s address to a joint session of Congress made by President Calderon of Mexico:
“I must say that I resent President Calderon coming into our country and criticizing our immigration laws. Mexico has some of the strictest immigration policies in the world, yet Mr. Calderon has the audacity to come into our Congress and criticize our laws. That is outrageous, and I am extremely disappointed that other members of Congress and the Obama Administration choose to applaud those remarks.”
