Gilbert's on the Job

Todd Gilbert, running unopposed for state representative, is on the Virginia Immigration Commission. He's also on the Internet. After seeing information about a member of the Immigration Commission on the Internet, Gilbert contacted Kaine's office with the information.

Here is what Gilbert may have seen. CLICK ON THOSE WORDS

According to Northern Virginia Daily, in an article on Friday, Sept 28, by Garren Shipley, Kaine announced the resignation of Dr. Esam Omeish, the president of the Falls Church-based Muslim American Society, from the 20-member commission studying the impacts of illegal immigration on the commonwealth on Thursday afternoon.

Del. Todd Gilbert, R-Woodstock, who first approached Kaine with concerns about Omeish, said he was "gratified that Kaine acted so quickly," but added that the incident raised serious questions about how thoroughly the administration was checking into the backgrounds of its policy advisers.
