Resolution on Immigration

Passed by the State Republican Party Of Alabama, February 9, 2002

IMMIGRATION REFORM

Whereas, the Immigration Act of 1965 has produced accidental and unwholesome results throughout the Nation; and

Whereas, the Immigration Act discriminates against those from countries from which the United States has traditionally drawn its immigrants, and discriminates in favor of those from Third World countries; and

Whereas, the present policy no longer favors immigrants who have the capacity to strengthen the country, but admits many who immediately and automatically become dependents of society; and

Whereas, one manifestation of this policy is that one-quarter of the prisoners in federal penitentiaries are aliens; and

Whereas, the culture of the United States has produced the greatest Nation in the whole history of the world; and

Whereas, the present immigration policy if left unchecked will destroy this culture and replace it with an alien culture inevitably inferior to that which has existed heretofore, and which has been a boon to all races and countries; and

Whereas, the loss of this culture would threaten the very survival of Western Civilization itself, and thus would be a catastrophe for all mankind; now therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF ALABAMA, that the Party be on record as being in vigorous opposition to the present immigration policy and strongly in favor of revising the Immigration Act such that it reverse the present favoritism toward Third World immigrants, and which sets a policy that would restore the ethnic balance prior to the enactment of the Immigration Act of 1965; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Alabama Congressional Delegation be encouraged to work assiduously for these reforms.
