Dream Act - Urgent!
« on: October 23, 2007, 07:47:10 AM »
Please respond to the following message, and then cut and past to an e-mail to everyone in your address book.

UPDATE

Open-borders Senators have plummeted to a new low in advocating amnesty by aiding, abetting and harboring a group of illegal aliens in our United States Capitol today!

Sen. Durbin (D-Ill.), Sen. Lugar (R-Ind.) and Sen. Hagel (R-Neb.) have invited Senators and their staffers to a meeting at 3 p.m. today to learn why they need to pass the DREAM Act amnesty on Wednesday.

Briefing the Senators in the Capitol will be:

"Several students who would benefit from the DREAM Act"
Angela Kelley, Director, Immigration Policy Center
Melissa Lazarin, Director of Education Policy, First Focus
Alfred Campos, Federal Lobbyist, National Education Association
Stephanie Grosser, Outreach & Program Coordinator, Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society
Kevin Appleby, U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops

In case that isn't clear enough, anybody who "would benefit from the DREAM Act" is an illegal alien.

Should anybody in the world hold back from trying to come here illegally now that they see that illegal aliens can hang around our Capitol itself with no fear of arrest -- and be embraced by our elected officials.

Last week, the Senate voted to protect Sanctuary Cities and their policies to shield illegal aliens. Today, some Senators apparently are declaring the Capitol an illegal-alien sanctuary!

We have now reached this point where the immigration lawlessness that has characterized the border for 20 years, that has suffocated our Southwestern states, south Florida and hundreds of neighborhoods across the country has now moved into the federal Capitol itself -- invited by U.S. Senators!!!

If you think the champions of anarchy have gone too far this time, pick up a phone over lunch and call your two U.S. Senators ! and dema nd that they commit to vote NO on cloture tomorrow on S. 2205.

Didn't this happen a month or so ago? I distinctly recall it floating the net at least that long back. Has it come up again?

They are trying no harder than Bush is to give the Country away. The dumocraps just don't care who they give it to. Bush wants Mexico to get it.

I faxed both of my senators about this yesterday. It is supposed to come up for a vote Wednesday Oct 24. The same left wing crowd keeps bringing it up over and over again trying to wear us down with their foolishness.

rockbilly if hillary manages to get elected, we will need to circle the wagons and dig in.

Today, the Senate takes action on the DREAM Act (S.2205). This proposed measure is just another example of Washington's relentless push for amnesty for illegal aliens. By continuing to ignore the will of the American people, these legislators thumb their collective noses at the rule of law. Now is the time for all of us to act!

The Democrats are pushing this measure which they say is designed to allow school-aged kids to stay in the U.S. (amnesty) to attend college. The Heritage Foundation describes the bill, saying, "The bill purports to grant amnesty to individuals unlawfully in the United States who arrived before the age of 16. Publicized as a humanitarian measure for children, the bill would allow applicants to immediately receive conditional legal status, including eligibility for federal benefits like student loans."

There is so much the Democrats are saying about this bill, and we must stop it today!

So, if your Senator is listed in the post above, you need to call ASAP!

Boys, the best advice I can give at this point is, "make that phone call immediately, and just in case, keep yer powder dry!"

A message to all my friends from the great State of Texas...............Our soon to be ex-senator Ms Kay Bailey Hutchinson voted FOR the bill.  go to her web site and shoot her an e-mail stating your disapproval of her vote, and encouraging her to vote against any future form of amnesty for those here illegally.

Remember, be courteous, short, and to the point, and don't forget to include your name, address, and phone number.
