Thomas J. Rooney - []
 * Congressmen:**

Civil Rights, Economy, Education.
 * Issues:**

Civil Rights:** Civil Rights are extremely important because there shouldn't be discrimination based on race, gender, age, etc.
 * Where I Stand:
 * Economy:** Our Economy is terrible right now. Citizens are losing jobs and struggling to make ends meet. It's like another Great Depression. If our economy continues to worsen, we eventually won't be able to live.
 * Education:** Education is very important because I believe that knowledge is an open door to success. Without sucess what will our future be like?

Our bill is about illegal immigration, and what we can do to prevent it. This would benefit us economically, and politcally. Economically, there has been many job oppurtunities that were taken from american citizens because of illegal immigrants taking those jobs. Even if the job isn't necessarily amazing or anything, we are basically in a recession, and everyone needs money. Politically there have been many disputes and arguments about the subject. Over all, we would do so much better economcally and politcally if this conflict was resolved. HB 36
