Mayor Rob Adams misses the point on illegal immigration. Too bad tourism is down but if the town didn’t rely on illegal, undocumented workers hired by employers who aid and abet the breaking of U.S. law and encourage illegals to come, ruin our towns’ budgets with free health care, food stamps, school rooms,non payment of taxes etc. then maybe honest trades people would be able to run their businesses without the onerous burdens of high taxes and mismanaged governmental budgets and towns would prosper in a free enterprise environment. I’m sick of wasted tax dollars spent by incompetent, bleeding heart officials who are blind to the real cost of millions of undocumented illegals who think we should pay their way. Close the borders and let it reach a balanced economic climate on merit and honesty.

ILLEGAL MEANS JUST THAT!!
To the Sedona Times,
I just read an article from a gentleman in Tucson that was responding to something I supposedly said or wrote regarding the immigration issue. I have not written or publicly made a statement to the Sedona Times regarding this issue.
What is this letter referring to?
Rob Adams
Referencing the comments made by Mayor Adams, I would also like to know the source of information to which the letter from Richard Downey of Tucson refers. The Mayor and I are on the same page insofar as being unable to locate any statements on the Sedona Times web site which would substantiate Mr. Downey’s remarks. How about pin-pointing what, exactly, precipitated the posting from Tucson?
Thanks much,
E. Maddock
