Transportation Secretary Mary Peters is the latest member of the Bush administration to break the law: She is opening our border to unsafe Mexican trucks despite a law passed overwhelmingly by Congress that forbids her from implementing the reckless pilot program. The law was enacted with bipartisan support and signed by President Bush.

Thumbing her nose at Congress and the American people, Mary Peters has displayed the height of Bush administration arrogance by authorizing the expenditure of funds that Congress has expressly declined to appropriate.

Peters is an out-of-control bureaucrat spending taxpayers' dollars on a dangerous program without any authority to do so. In fact, Congress expressly forbid her from spending a dime on her pilot project to open the border to trucks from Mexico. Peters chose to defy Congress and the will of the American people.

Do you think government bureaucrats should be allowed to spend taxpayer money on whatever they want, even though the people's representatives told her not to? Even though they endanger American lives? Of course you don't.

Congress knows Mexican trucks aren't as safe as U.S. trucks. That's why it passed laws requiring Mexican trucks to meet U.S. safety standards before they travel freely on our highways.

It is time to put a stop to Mary Peters' lawlessness. Tell your member of Congress that you want Mary Peters and President Bush to be held accountable for their reckless and illegal acts.

Tell your representatives in Congress that that they cannot stand for government bureaucrats who blatantly violate the law. Tell them to hold Mary Peters in contempt of Congress. Tell them to Fire Mary Peters!
