SNIP:I propose this:

Once the 'Mexican terrorists' are defeated the relocated familes will return to their homeland. End SNIP
I am not suggesting this is THE answer. I do believe in the power of the people. I do believe in humanity wanting to help each other. I don't think Boycotting Arizona is the answer. It will only hurt the underemployed, unpaid majority who is struggling to support themselves and their familes here in AZ and south of our border.
Sincerely, I hope that people do get involved. I look forward to positive resolutions.

Still wont fly, here's why. You by asking congress to send troops, ours, to another country, for whatever reason are asking congress to invade a sovereign country. It isn't constitutional at all. How's this instead...Ask congress to make medical pot legal, get FDA approval for better safer drugs sooner, tell congress to pass sane immerigation legislation that doesn't profile americans already living legally in this country, and is humane in dealing with immigrants who for what ever reason are here without documentation.
ETA: Congress has no power to send troops anywhere, that is the purview of The President. Congress can only declare war, or not.
