THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT, Ms. Waldron!
Mr. Steve Merrill:
Thank you so much for your note.  You make excellent points and I appreciate your past experience and insight as an immigration officer.  The time to act locally is now; in fact it is almost too late.  It is up to us, as the Feds will clearly not do anything about securing the borders.  I applaud the USBP and understand they are doing all they can with limited resources and limited support from the Federal government.  
    Tonight, the Escondido city council became the first city on record to support the CA Border Police act.  My hope is that other cities and county governments follow our lead and stand up to protect our national soveriegnty.  The vote was 3-2.  Too bad it wasn't unanimous!
Sincerely,Marie Waldron
Escondido City Councilmember

Expansion of alien removal policy could create logistical headaches
GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE MAGAZINE – October 12, 2005 FULL ARTICLE
An expansion of the government's power to detain and remove illegal immigrants without hearings or review raises numerous policy, resource and logistical questions, according to a new report from the Congressional Research Service. Several lawmakers have recently expressed interest in broadening the use of expedited removal, which allows the government to immediately send home illegal aliens who lack proper documentation, or have committed fraud or willful misrepresentation of facts, without further hearings or review, unless the alien indicates a fear of persecution.
