                                (Washington D.C.)- Congressman Brian Bilbray (CA-50) took part in today's Capitol Hill press conference where six members of Congress questioned the Obama Administration's claims on how many jobs will be saved or created under Obama's stimulus plan. President Obama has claimed the stimulus plan, a plan that was pushed through Congress in the middle of the night, has already saved or created 150,000 jobs and will save or create another 600,000 in the next 100 days, yet the president has declined calls from Congress to provide his formulas on how he has arrived at these figures. Congressman Bilbray expressed his disappointment in the new president, and Congressional leadership, for a lack of transparency in the matter.

                                (Washington D.C.)- Congressman Brian Bilbray, Chairman of the Immigration Reform Caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives, has recently sent President Barack Obama a letter, signed by 51 other members of Congress, regarding opposition to the Administration's postponement of the E-Verify program. In the letter, the members stated, &quot;We oppose the Administration's decision to delay, for a third time, the requirement that federal contractors use E-Verify to confirm that new hires are eligible to work in the United States legally.&quot;

                                (Washington D.C.)- Congressman Brian Bilbray, Chairman of the Immigration Reform Caucus, recently sent Obama's Secretary of Transportation, Ray LaHood, a letter detailing concerns over the safety of airline passengers. Due to the fact some of the nation's airline mechanics cannot read English, it appears that the language-barrier has, in the past, caused the deaths of airline passengers.
