Phyllis Schlafly: This Is America’s Last Chance
Sen. Jeff Sessions gave a round of interviews declaring that 2016 “is the last chance for the American people to take back control of their government. We have pell mell erosion of law and our constitutional order. … President Obama has pushed an agenda that eviscerates the immigration legal system and pushed this trade agreement that will commence decades of transferring American economic power to an ever-expanding international commission. This is the way the European Union began,” Sessions warned.
Daily news reports are now vividly describing how the EU is disintegrating, making Americans mighty glad we never joined any proposed North American Union. Our nation’s sovereignty depends on control of both immigration and trade, and that’s why Sen. Sessions urges voters to choose a candidate who promises to kill the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal. A new study at Tufts University predicts that U.S. ratification of that treaty would cause a loss of 448,000 American jobs.
“This election will be the last chance for Americans to get control of their government,” said Sessions. “I think this election is the big one.” The importance of Sessions’ statements on key issues in the presidential race, especially immigration and trade, should not be underestimated.
Our immigration policy has been anti-American, decade after decade, and the voters need to know that 2016 might be our last chance to elect a president who can reduce this tide of illegals crossing our borders. The interests of working Americans, their jobs, their wages, their hospitals, their schools and the public safety, must “be put first,” Sessions urged. “We need a president with the credibility to tell the world that the time of illegality is over.” I think the voters should say, “If you’re not going to be right on this … I’m not going to vote for you as president.”
Phyllis Schlafly is founder of The Eagle Forum and author of several books. She is often regarded as the “mother of the modern conservative movement” in America.
