Republicans Bill Northey and Mark Leonard face immigration and food safety issues as party candidates rally turnout across 12 counties from Cedar Falls to the Quad Cities.

Immigration debate splits candidates in 2006 race
Candidates clash over immigration policy with claims of border enforcement and employer penalties. Dix proposes fines on illegal employers and border measures, Kennedy calls for 10,000 new patrol agents, while others advocate Kennedy McCain reforms and border staffing. Democrats stress broader solutions rather than House bills.
