Enzi Answers Your Questions on Immigration, EPA Ozone Limits

Press Release

Date: Dec. 4, 2014

In a new video recorded this week, U.S. Senator Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., answered constituent questions on President Obama's most recent executive overreaches that granted amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants and an EPA proposed rule on ozone limits. The questions and comments are from Wyoming constituents sent to Enzi during the past couple weeks through Facebook and Twitter, from phone calls to his D.C. and Wyoming offices, and from email and written letters.

President Obama's Illegal Immigration Amnesty

"This president has just granted amnesty to over 4 million people with the stroke of the pen, not a single vote from congress and that's wrong. Why haven't we counteracted this? We don't have the votes. After the first of the year we're going to have a majority of Republicans and that will make a difference, it better make a difference.

"But we can't have the president circumventing Congress and there are ways for a majority to be able to stop those things and part of that is through the appropriations process, cutting off the money for the things that are done illegally."

EPA Proposed Ozone Limits

"I've seen a map of the United States and this ozone Rule isn't going to go anywhere because the whole east coast of the Mississippi River and all across the southern part of the United States, they have much higher ozone unattainment at the present time than Wyoming does. We have some isolated spots where we're having a problem and again that is largely where there's a concentration of population or concentration of work and I think we'll have a lot of help in overcoming this ozone rule, which will be devastating. So I hope people will comment on it, get their comments in, that does make a difference."

Senator Enzi records "Collecting Common Sense from Wyoming for Washington" videos periodically when the Senate is in session. He encourages Wyoming residents to continue sharing their thoughts, ideas, and questions. For individual responses, constituents should email him through his web page -- www.enzi.senate.gov.
