Justice of the Peace, Pct .2 candidate says, "Vote for Me!"
Steve Walker (caricature by Mel @ 599-1007) Justice of the Peace, Pct. 2 candidate
Walker Report Publisher
Soon to be Democratic nominee for Justice of the Peace Pct. 2, Place 1 candidate says,
"As a retired teacher with 26 years in the classroom, I bring a wealth of experience in dealing with the epidemic of truancy offenses which will constitute 40 percent of the cases that will come before my court when I take the bench in January 2009.
"A Justice of the Peace traditionally is a person from the community who not only knows the community, but has worked extensively in the community to make it a safer place to live and raise children. He is called the People’s Judge.
"As a former four-term Balcones Heights Councilman, I also have experience with accountability to residents who will put their trust in me to make the right decisions.
"The position does not require a Justice of the Peace to be a lawyer for a reason. A Justice of the Peace needs to listen to all sides of an issue and not be predisposed to favor one side or another like a former prosecutor, defense lawyer or even a corporate attorney. Calling on the Wisdom of Solomon, the Judge must weigh all the facts and evidence presented to formulate a decision that benefits both parties with compassion and a sense of fairness.
"This same standard of fairness must also be applied to evictions, small claims and traffic tickets."

Lyle Larson: Immigration and the Border...

He has been a proponent of expanding Operation Streamline along the entire stretch of the US/Mexican border and ending the practice of catching and releasing illegals other than Mexicans (OTM's). He will not support amnesty for anyone who has entered the United States illegally.

He will not support amnesty for anyone who has entered the United States illegally.
As your congressman, Lyle Larson would create a "Border Guard" comprised of all the Congressional representatives with districts along the border and the 8 Senators from the states along the border. They would be joined by their counterparts from the Mexican Federal Governments. No country has ever unilaterally secured its own border and Lyle would strongly encourage the Mexican Government to participate if they want to receive the $1.3 billion of Drug Interdiction money promised by President George Bush.
Finally, Lyle Larson would like to see the expansion of the Farm Visa program into other industries such as hospitality, food service and construction. Providing a legal mechanisms for individuals to return to their home country and re-enter the U.S. provided they are sponsored by a qualified employer is the best way to address our workforce needs.
National Rifle Association (NRA) Gives Lyle Larson an "A" Rating...
Based on his responses to the NRA federal candidate questionnaire, Lyle Larson has been rated an "A" by the NRA-Political Victory Fund in the Republican primary election for U.S. House of Representatives in the 23rd Congressional District of Texas. (click here to view the rating...)
