Pennsylvania State Representative and State Legislators for Legal Immigration founder Daryl Metcalfe and several other state lawmakers journeyed to Washington D.C. on Pearl Harbor Day to officially call on members of the United State Congress to move the ongoing immigration reform debate above and beyond the overwhelmingly-rejected "national in-security blanket" of granting amnesty to illegal aliens.
In addition, State Legislators for Legal Immigration members also announced that they have entered into a working partnership with the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) to create a comprehensive package of model National Security Begins at Home legislative solutions that any state lawmaker can introduce to effectively shut down all economic attractions and incentives for illegal aliens.

State Legislators for Legal Immigration
A Special Message from
State Legislators for Legal Immigration Founder
Pennsylvania State Representative Daryl Metcalfe
(R-Butler County)
Dear Friends:
Each and every self-evident truth contained in the Declaration of Independence was designed to abolish all foreign government power from the borders of the American colonies.
Similar to the American Revolution, the personal and economic safety of Pennsylvanians and all American citizens depends upon definitive action being taken by our federal, state and local governments to end the ongoing invasion of illegal aliens through our borders.
State Legislators for Legal Immigration represents a 21st Century Declaration of Independence to protect Pennsylvanians and United States citizens from property theft, drug running, human trafficking, increased violent crime, increased gang activity, terrorism and the many other clear and present dangers directly associated with illegal immigration.
Since Washington DC remains AWOL on fulfilling its Constitutional responsibilities to secure our nation's borders against foreign invaders, it is not only incumbent, but the obligation of state lawmakers in Pennsylvania and across the nation to step up and do the job that our federal government refuses to do.
State Legislators for Legal Immigration has been formed to serve as a unifying force to bring all levels of government together to terminate America’s illegal alien invasion from the Keystone State of Pennsylvania; to every city, community, small town, main street, front porch and back yard; across our fruited plains; and from sea to shining sea. Once the economic attractions of illegal jobs and taxpayer-funded public benefits are severed at the source, these illegal invaders will have no choice but to go home on their own.
Mission Statement
State Legislators for Legal Immigration is a nation-wide coalition founded by Pennsylvania State Representative Daryl D. Metcalfe (R-Butler) to provide a network of state legislators who are committed to working together in demanding full cooperation among our federal, state and local governments in eliminating all economic attractions and incentives (including, but not limited to: public benefits, welfare, education and employment opportunities) for illegal aliens, as well as securing our borders against unlawful invasion.
Policy Positions
1. It is the responsibility of the federal government to secure our borders and we encourage them to do so with our full support:
Article 4, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution states that our government “shall guarantee” to every state in this Union a Republican form of government and shall protect each of them against INVASION.”
2. When illegal aliens invade our individual states and communities all levels of government have a responsibility to protect their citizens.
3. State and local governments have an obligation to protect the lives, property and individual liberties of their citizens.
