Farm Bureau Press Release: The Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce, the Poultry Federation and Arkansas Farm Bureau have announced support for the pending comprehensive immigration reform legislation that is currently in front of the United States Senate, citing the additional border security, increased and enhanced workplace enforcement, and a workable guest worker program as critical components of the current legislation. . . . The three organizations have lobbied Sens. Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor on the topic, identifying the critical nature of any immigration reform and the need to get something passed this year, and hope that both senators will vote for the bill.“Everyone, I believe, is in agreement that the status-quo is not working. It is time to act, and to get something passed, for the security of our country and for the legal access to immigrant workers.” . . . “Everyone, I believe, is in agreement that the status-quo is not working.

[How many of the AR Farm Bureau's 230,000 family members - those who just support this org by buying house and car insurance - agree with the stated position of Amnesty for Illegal Immigrates proposed by the Senate & supported by the AR Farm Bureau, et.al.? The estimated budget cost to each citizen for this bill will be far higher than the the FB Member's premium savings. Maybe the Farm Bureau is counting on the illegals being able to drive and buy Farm Bureau insurance!]
