Your fight will be my fight, U.S. Sen. Ron Wydentold a crowd demonstrating for illegal immigrants rights at the state Capitol lastmonth.

If it is, however, that fight will be against the very constituents he was elected to serve.

The reason: Just over two years ago, in the November 2014 general election, those constituents rejected illegal-immigrant driver cards by a whopping 66 percent to 34 percent margin. In doing so, voters made clear their opposition to policies that reward and encourage illegal immigration.

If Wydenreally wishes to wage a fight, it should be to advance that voter mandate. The way for him to start is by supporting President Trump as he works to secure our porous borders, punish illegal-immigrant sanctuary cities and remove illegal immigrants from the jobs they are taking by the millions from young and lower-skilled Americans.
