Former Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo, who gained notoriety for his take-no-prisoners approach to undocumented immigrants, plans to form a political action committee focused on the issue, according to his website.
The PAC, called the American Legacy Alliance, filed the paperwork for the PAC last week, according to the Denver Post.
The paper said that the PAC will aim to “raise unlimited funds around the cause of illegal immigration.”
The PAC will support candidates and groups that share Tancredo’s views on taking a hard line on illegal immigration, including denying automatic citizenship to the U.S.-born babies of undocumented immigrants, the paper said.
The website Tancredo has set up for the PAC features pictures of children and describes a country in which “English will give way to the hodgepodge of languages spoken by those that chose to ignore what few immigration laws remain.”

Conservative activists came up short in some high-profile races on Tuesday. Mississippi state Sen. Chris McDaniel unexpectedly lost his runoff against incumbent Sen. Thad Cochran (thanks in part to high turnout among African-American voters turned off by McDaniel’s positions). Former Rep. Tom Tancredo, famous for his fierce opposition to immigrants, blew a lead of his own in failing to win the GOP’s Colorado gubernatorial nomination. Oklahoma speaker of the house T.W. Shannon, backed by reality star Sarah Palin and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Cruz), came up short in his quest to replace retiring Sen. Tom Coburn.
