AUDIO: Perry Says He'll Secure The Border
In two Manchester, NH campaign stops, Texas Governor and GOP presidential hopeful Rick Perry pitched his ideas of a flat-tax on incomes and a part-time Congress.
In his second campaign stop of the day, Perry told a crowd at Manchester T-shirt and novelty company, Logo Loc, that he supports a right-to-work law.
He says it’s not anti-union and that he plans to talk about a right to work law when he speaks before the New Hampshire Legislature tomorrow.
“If New Hampshire passes a right to work law, it will be among the most job friendly states in the country. Companies will come here and you’ll see jobs created,” Perry said.
He also said the US has to secure its border and adds that he will be a ‘Law and Order’ president.
“I will be a law and order president in the same way that I’ve been a law and order governor. Within one year of being sworn in as president, the border will be secure,” Perry said.
Perry also ridiculed the 2007 federal bailout of the banking sector.
“We just learned yesterday that seven billion dollars in secret loans were given to Wall Street,” he said. “Nobody knew about it. Congress didn’t know about it.”
“Well I have a message for the president, ‘No more bailouts!’”
Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio endorsed Perry for President at a joint campaign appearance at St. Anselm College.
“I took an oath of office to uphold the laws as I know Rick Perry has. I support him for president and hope you will do so,” Arpaio said.
“He’s the kind of ethical family man we need in the White House,” Arpaio said.
