Republican Kasey Carpenter censured by his District GOP officials
The 14th Congressional District Georgia Republican Party censured State Rep. Kasey Carpenter (R-Dalton), according to the Dalton Daily Citizen News.
The Georgia 14th Congressional District Republican Party at its annual convention in Rome recently censured state Rep. Kasey Carpenter, R-Dalton, for being the sole Republican in the state House of Representatives to vote against the Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act.
That bill, which requires local law enforcement agencies to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, passed both the state House and Senate and was recently signed into law by Gov. Brian Kemp.
In March, Carpenter was censured by the Whitfield County GOP at its annual convention for his vote on that bill as well as speaking out in support last year for a 10-year intergovernmental agreement between Whitfield County, Whitfield County Schools and the city of Varnell that allows a tax allocation district to help fund high-end commercial development at Patterson Farms.
The resolution censuring Carpenter by the district Republican Party calls the Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act “a modest bill” and notes that Carpenter was the only Republican in the state House to vote against it. It calls Carpenter “wildly out of touch on the illegal immigration issue with most voters in the 14th Congressional District.” That district includes Whitfield and Murray counties.
“I think we ought to support our sheriffs and police officers, not penalize them for not being immigration experts,” Carpenter said in March after being censured by the county GOP. “I’m also concerned as a person who represents a 52% minority district that Hispanics and other people of color could be profiled.”
Carpenter does not have an opponent in the May 21 Republican primary, and no Democrat qualified to run against him in November.
Retired immigration agen Robert Trent: GA Lawmakers double-dealing on immigration – SB 354
Opinion
May 2, 2024
“I can’t help but wonder what Laken Riley’s family thinks about this travesty.”
Lawmakers double-dealing on immigration
- UPDATE: May 3, 2024. GA Gov Brian Kemp (R) signed SB 354 on May 2 thus continuing the business-first push for dismantling long-standing law (OCGA 50-36-1) designed to stop illegal aliens from accessing occupational licenses in Georgia. As a state Senator, Kemp passed OCGA 50-36-1 out of committee as Chairman of the Senate Public Safety committee in 2006 and voted for the host legislation on the floor for final passage.
Dear editor
Conservatives who are thrilled with the state legislature for passage of HB 1105, the Georgia Criminal Alien Track and Report Act should be aware of another bill passed in the just-ended session. SB 354 is legislation that begins a process of disassembling an entire system designed to make life difficult for illegal aliens in Georgia.
Because sorting out and rejecting illegal aliens in the process of issuing occupational licenses is a package deal, ending the licensing process also eliminates the check for illegal immigration status. SB 354 does exactly that for some low skilled workers in cosmetology and barbering industry. Sponsored by Sen. Larry Walker (R-Perry) and pushed by the usual “We want more workers!” suspects in the state Capitol, this business-first legislation will result in more illegal immigration into Georgia. Obedient Republican lawmakers passed SB 354 with only two of them voting against it. Neither of them represents Coastal Georgia. Not many Republican voters want Georgia to be a great place for illegals to “live, work and raise a family.” I can’t help but wonder what Laken Riley’s family thinks about this travesty.
Sadly, nobody should be surprised if Gov. Kemp proudly signs Walker’s dangerous bill into law while assuring us that it’s “good for business.” But it is well worth the effort to ask Kemp to veto this one. SB 354 should be a cause of great shame for Republican voters if they remain silent. Kemp’s Capitol office phone number is 404-656-1776
