Re:
Congressman Pete Sessions’ GOP Leadership Bid

Congressman Pete Sessions (TX – CD32, Dallas) is accurately seen as the establishment candidate in the current race underway for U.S. House GOP Whip.
It is interesting to note that the extreme and mean-spirited views Sessions expressed about Latino immigrants as a congressional candidate back in 1994 are now the accepted point of view within the Republican Party. In a Republican leadership race, these views are virtually mandatory.
The video below shows Sessions speaking to a senior citizen at a Republican women’s club meeting in Dallas County in 1994 explaining to her how he would deal with undocumented immigrants. Note the smile on his face in the closing seconds.
