Dear Representative Tipton,

It was certainly shocking that you voted alongside Nancy Pelosi, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and 224 other Democrats to give amnesty to millions of illegal farmworkers and their families.

To then falsely claim, “This bill is NOT an amnesty bill” is a good indicator of why you should no longer be representing hardworking American citizens in Congress. How stupid do you believe voters are?

The Heritage Foundation called the Farm Workforce Modernization Act, “foremost an illegal immigration bill that would provide amnesty for millions of illegal agricultural workers—and their spouses and children.”

Mr. Tipton, you can’t fool your constituents. When you allow millions of illegal aliens to indefinitely stay in the United States legally that is called amnesty.

When you then agreed to spend $1 billion in taxpayer funds to pay for their housing, it’s downright insulting.

Let’s also be clear about the far-reaching implications of your actions: your vote for amnesty undermines President Trump’s border security efforts.

What motivation do Democrats have to negotiate with President Trump when you have already handed them exactly what they want?

There is absolutely no way Republicans would have elected you had you been honest about your support for amnesty.

Colorado’s other Republican representatives, Ken Buck and Doug Lamborn, voted against H.R. 5038. Representative Buck was correct in stating the bill, “opens the door to a massive amnesty.”

I look forward to the opportunity of working alongside them in the near future.
