The following article is from Congress Daily and says that AZ House Appropriations Committee Chairman Russell "Four Fingered" Pearce may be running for Congress!! As a lover of right-wing extremists, I am more than a little pleased with this announcement. Imagine, Jeff Flake wasn't crazy enough for his taste! This will be one to watch.
POLITICAL ROUNDUP
Immigration Foe Pearce Explores Bid Against Flake
Republican state Rep. Russell Pearce has announced the formation of a committee to explore a bid for the seat held by Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., the Associated Press reported. Pearce, author of several Arizona immigration laws, said he agrees with Flake about 80 percent of the time, but that he sharply disagrees with him on immigration, particularly on Flake's support for comprehensive immigration legislation this year. "What needs to be done is resources, enforce the law. We don't need immigration reform. That's just the code word for amnesty," Pearce said. Flake said if Pearce challenges him next year, he looks forward to what he is sure will be a "spirited campaign."
