Coming out of a telephone-conducted town hall meeting with his constituents tonight, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, reported that a whopping 91% of participants are against the idea of a giant, comprehensive immigration reform package. Instead, they favor a step-by-step approach that would tackle each facet of the complex issue separately. It seems as if, regardless of their position on the issue, people would rather see it dealt with in a rational, deliberate manner than watch their Senators plunge over a cliff like punch-drunk lemmings.
Nothing says “step-by-step approach” like a Godzilla-sized bill that could feed a small herd of goats.
@SenMikeLee Wish 91% of Republicans in the Senate saw it that way. You and 14 others excluded, of course. Keep up the fight! #immigration

@SenMikeLee We need your help persuading the cabal in the Senate that it is not just your constituents.
