Elton W. Gallegly (born March 7 1944), an American politician, has been a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives since 1987, currently representing the 24th District of California ([map]).
Born in Huntington Park, California on March 7 1944, Gallegly was a real estate broker and member of the Simi Valley, California City Council before entering the House.
Gallegly is a member of the House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, and Claims. He opposes amnesty because in his view, "it encourages illegal immigration, making it even more difficult to secure [U.S.] borders and putting a huge strain on [the U.S.] economy and health care and educational systems."[link]
Gallegly is also a member of the Resources Committee, the International Relations Committee, and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
