SENATE:
Connie Mack (A-) vs. Bill Nelson (Incumbent -- D-)

Like the Nevada Senate race, Nelson and Mack could hardly be further away from each other on immigration. For example, Nelson voted for the DREAM Act amnesty in 2010, while Mack opposed it in the House. What separates this seat from Nevada, however, is that the incumbent here is pro-amnesty.


HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES:
18th Patrick Murphy vs. Allen West (Incumbent -- A)

Rep. West was one of the few freshmen True Reformers to stick to their promises, becoming a 5-for-5er. Murphy supports amnesty and immigration increases.

Since January 2009, 2 million working age (16 to 65) immigrants (both legal and illegal) have become employed, while native-born employment only rose by 1 million, during the same period. According to the study, there are now 23.2 million foreign-born workers in the country. Go to The Examiner for the details.
