Though primarily formed to unite Texans in matters concerning
immigration reform, the Immigration Reform Coalition of Texas (“IRCOT”)
strives to serve all citizens of the U.S.
IRCOT seeks to educate Texans on the wide variety of serious problems associated with illegal immigration
and communicate our positions to relevant elected leaders. Participation
in IRCOT is open to anyone who desires to be engaged in the
battle for "true" (as opposed to "comprehensive") immigration reform in this great nation.
• To speak from Texas with a united voice to governmental
leaders at all levels reminding them of their duty to protect
and defend the citizens of Texas and this nation first and
foremost.
• To demonstrate the support of Texans for secure, well-defined
borders. This can be achieved through enforcement of our current
immigration laws and enactment of additional immigration
legislation designed to end the magnets and thus halt the flow of illegal aliens into
our nation.
• To increase the networking capability of Texans and encourage
their participation in the efforts of Texas immigration reform
groups engaged in bringing about meaningful solutions and enforceable
immigration related legislation.
• To educate Texans about the impact of illegal immigration
at the city, state, and national levels through links to national
immigration groups, related news articles, and events.
