Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has come out against the Senate immigration bill saying it is full of pork, reports the Washington Post.
Jindal described the bill as a “thousand-page bill full of pork, regulations, and new powers for bureaucrats to manage the economy.”
The Governor penned his thoughts in an editorial for the National Review.
“The problem begins with bad motives. Politically craven electoral concerns and the interests of big businesses and unions should not drive legislation,” said Jindal.
“The truth is, many Democrats don’t really care about meaningful reform of our immigration system. They are pushing a pork-laden Big Government power grab and hoping to demonize the Republican party in the process.”
