U.S. Rep. Charles Taylor says he wants immigration reform.

The Brevard Republican is among a group of congressman who drafted a letter to President George W. Bush asking for a comprehensive approach to stop illegal immigration across the country’s southern border.

The letter, along with constituent signatures, will be hand-delivered to the president in December.

Taylor also banded with four other Republican congressmen from North Carolina to file legislation threatening to halt federal highway money to the state unless the state makes it harder for illegal immigrants to get a driver license.
