Labrador, Spanish Broadcaster Mix It Up

First District GOP nominee Raul Labrador told an incredulous Jorge Ramos that 11 million illegal immigrants should return to their home countries and apply for readmission. Labrador appeared Sunday on Univision's "Al Punto" ("To the Point"), the network's equivalent of "Meet the Press" and other Sunday public affairs programs. Univision is the No. 5 TV network in the U.S. and reaches 95 percent of the 48 million Hispanics in the country. "Al Punto" draws an average of 948,000 viewers and draws more adults aged 18 to 49 than "Fox News Sunday"/Dan Popkey, Idaho Statesman. More here.

Question: Is illegal immigration an issue for you in the 1st Congressional District race?
