House rejects bills to fund wars

Very concerned | 11:02 a.m. May 16, 2008

Larry Craig complained about Democrats putting domestic add-ons to the war funding measure?? Craig has joined with Diane Feinstein to attach an illegal ag-worker amnesty to the Iraq spending bill. There is no need for this amnesty. Foreign workers may be brought in to work in the fields through the H-2A visa program, and then they return home to their country. Who said American workers don't need jobs? The war funding bill should be passed with absolutely NO add-ons.
