US Border Control Announces 'Hall of Fame' for the 109th Congress

WASHINGTON, DC -- Edward I. Nelson, Chairman of U.S. Border Control (USBC), has announced the inductees into the U.S. Border Control Hall of Fame for the 109th Congress.

The list includes 125 U.S. Representatives and 20 U.S. Senators. The voting record for each Member of Congress can be found at www.usbc.org by clicking on the Border Alert Scoreboard Issue and/or Election Central.

Chairman Nelson stated, “The members of the 109th Congressional Hall of Fame have listened to the overwhelming majority of their constituents who want an end of open borders, amnesty and welfare benefits for illegal aliens.

The House Scorecard is based 12 votes on immigration issues including deploying troops on the border; ending the visa lottery, and fining employers who hire illegals. The Senate scorecard is also based on 12 votes including opposition to amnesty, preservation of Social Security for American citizens, and making English the official language.

“There remains a tremendous amount of work to be done to secure our borders against drugs, disease, terrorism, and illegal migration, but the 109th Congress has taken some important first steps by standing up to the Administration’s and the Senate’s push for amnesty and by passing the Secure Fence Act.”

U.S. Border Control is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization, established in 1988. USBC’s mission is to end illegal immigration and restore America’s sovereignty by securing the nation's borders and reforming border and immigration policies.
