Kagen holds sessions on immigration after visit to border
Bill in House would increase border patrol
By J.E. Espino Gannett Wisconsin Newspapers
Less than a week after returning from his visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, U.S. Rep. Steve Kagen is making his rounds through Northeastern Wisconsin to talk immigration issues.
Kagen, D-Appleton, is holding forums with community leaders and businesses today in Waupaca and Shawano and Wednesday in Appleton. Kagen also hopes to open similar dialogue Thursday in Green Bay, but no details were available Sunday. He is taking questions but is also promoting the Secure America with Verification and Enforcement Act.

"I think it's a good first step. It may not be the complete solution, but begins to define some of the (answers)," Kagen said Sunday of the immigration bill, which has gained the support of 45 Democrats and 68 Republicans in the House as of Nov. 15. He was against funding a wall and is now for building a wall?

Will someone ask him about the six bills he voted for to dole out free money to illegal immigrants?
Remember these;

-Steve Kagen voted against prohibiting taxpayer funding for so called “sanctuary cities” that harbor illegal immigrants. (Roll Call 485; June 15, 2007)

- Steve Kagen voted against full funding for the construction of the border fence as mandated by Congress. (Roll Call 490; June 15 , 2007)

- Steve Kagen voted against requiring persons receiving federal housing assistance to provide valid identification. (Roll Call 628; July 12, 2007)

- Steve Kagen voted to give illegal immigrants taxpayer-funded healthcare benefits. (Roll Call 787; August 1, 2007)

- Steve Kagen voted against a motion that would have prevented illegal immigrants from accessing federal housing assistance, which is intended for low-income Americans. (Roll Call 814; August 2, 2007)

- Steve Kagen again voted against a measure designed to prevent illegal immigrant from receiving government housing assistance funds. (Roll Call 875; September 18, 2007)
