Another suppression by bush regime
WASHINGTON - A Republican congressman wants an investigation of whether the Bush administration tried to suppress a survey indicating U.S. policies spurred immigrants to illegally enter the country.

Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., said the U.S. Border Patrol's three-week survey was discontinued after initial results showed illegal immigrants believed they would be granted amnesty once in the United States.

Tancredo cited a report by Judicial Watch, a conservative government watchdog group, that included copies of an internal memo barring Homeland Security Department employees from publicly discussing the survey's results. The Border Patrol is a branch of the department.
