Congressional candidate targets immigrants
BRIDGEPORT — Democratic Congressional candidate Lee Whitnum called Monday for extensive crackdowns on job-specific and illegal immigration to open up jobs for more Americans.Whitnum, who gathered enough signatures in the 4th Congressional District to force a primary against fellow Greenwich resident Jim Himes Aug. 12, called for two dedicated police officers in every community to enforce immigration regulations, such as overstayed visas and illegal entrants. During a meeting of the editorial board at the Connecticut Post, Whitnum said that Congress has unnecessarily admitted foreigners to do work that could be done by the nation's own.
"There's no shortage of talented, educated people here," said Whitnum, a Stamford substitute teacher who said her own career as a software engineer was derailed by an influx of outsiders.
The winner of the primary will take on Republican Christopher Shays, now in his 11thterm. She said Shays is one of those responsible for the problem. "They keep giving away our jobs," she said.
Whitnum contended the shortages in some fields are caused because Americans undergo longer periods of training, making them even more qualified. In others, she said the problem is a shortage of training programs rather than of able and willing Americans...
...Whitnum said she hasn't raised any money for her run against outsiders and has put in about $9,500 of her own, which she hopes to eventually recoup somehow. She said she knows she is waging an uphill fight. "I'm doing the best I can with what I have," she said.=================================================
