Analyst's note:  Absolutely must read ... then act.  Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of their country.  We either understand this issue and stop it, or we will always see progressive, liberal presidents, probably a Democrat running this country .... never again returning to its constitutional foundation.  Amnesty for illigal aliens is even worse than Obamacare and will destroy (fundamentally transform) this nation.  Our republic, our very national sovereignty is at stake with this issue.  Share this with your friends .... then go to NumbersUSA and through the "Take Action" tab contact your representatives and let them know what you think on this matter.  Do it NOW!  Please!

We've Been Played on Immigration

This Senate bill now being considered won't stop future amnesties, won't guarantee a secure border, won't stop employers from hiring illegal aliens, won't remove illegal aliens from the jobs they already hold, and won't put 1 single American back to work. It will, however, give 11 million illegal aliens work permits. Is it worth spending $6.3 trillion to amnesty 11 million illegal aliens and to put millions of Americans out of work?

No amendments can fix this bill because it's bad to the core. The bill was written with the express purpose to amnesty illegal aliens, but only to give the facade of border security and interior enforcement. How do you fix something so rotten?

I hope you will consider the dire implications of this bill and decide the American people shouldn't be asked to bear the costs.

We also need to end Chain Migration.

Chain Migration refers to the endless and often-snowballing chains of foreign nationals who are allowed to immigrate because the law allows citizens and lawful permanent residents to bring in their extended, non-nuclear family members.

Chain Migration is the primary mechanism that has caused legal immigration in this country to quadruple from about 250,000 per year in the 1950s and 1960s to more than one million a year since 1990. As such, it is one of the chief culprits in America's current record-breaking population boom and all the attendant sprawl, congestion, school overcrowding, and other impacts that reduce American's quality of life.

 

It is up to us to act ... now or never!

By way of a reminder

[...] the Muslim Brotherhood's mission in America is "destroying Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions."

Have you ever asked yourself why, despite more than ten years of efforts –involving, among other things, the loss of thousands of lives in wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, well-over a trillion dollars spent, countless man-years wasted waiting in airport security lines and endless efforts to ensure that no offense is given to seemingly permanently aggrieved Muslim activists – are we no closer to victory in the so-called “war on terror” than we were on 9/11?

We are being defeated from within. Our leaders are imposing the very values promoted by our enemies.

'The Republic is at stake'
Bachmann says amnesty would end America as we know it

WND - By Garth Kant

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., has two dire warnings for America in an exclusive interview with WND.

* Don’t count on the House to stop amnesty.

* And, if amnesty passes it will end our constitutional republic as we know it.

Bachmann says she doesn’t want to sound alarmist but when you boil it down, that is what is really at stake.

She says there is one solution — only a grassroots effort can stop President Obama’s plan to fundamentally transform America.

So, she is issuing a call to arms to all WND readers and all Americans, contact your representatives in Congress to stop amnesty before it is too late.

 

Bachmann explained, step by step, how a bill she believes conservatives should naturally oppose easily could be approved by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

“The Senate is going to pass a very bad bill. The House will pass what will sound like a pretty good bill. But I’m just here to tell you, it’s a Trojan horse.

The lawmaker said the bill will say “We’re going to secure the borders,” so all the Republicans will vote for this bill. Then the bill will go to a conference committee where it will undergo a dramatic change.

The good guts of the Trojan horse bill will be pulled out. The very bad amnesty provisions will be put in the bill. The bill will go to the House floor and it won’t be Republicans that pass it.

“It’ll be Nancy Pelosi leading all the House Democrats to vote for it, and just enough Republicans will vote for the bill and you’ll have amnesty,” predicted Bachmann.

She said that’s been the strategy behind the scenes all along.

“I think the master plan of the ruling class that runs Washington, D.C., is to ram this bill through before the American people know what has hit them, and before members of Congress even know what has hit them.”

Bachamnn said there is only one person who can stop the master plan and that person is “you.

“I’m just telling WND viewers that if you sit this one out and you don’t start hitting the phone lines and email, calling and visiting your representatives now and saying, ‘No amnesty now, no amnesty ever,’ we’re going to have perpetual amnesty for illegal immigration.”

She predicted if amnesty becomes the law “the whole political system will change.”

“This is President Obama’s number one political agenda item because he knows we will never again have a Republican president, ever, if amnesty goes into effect. We will perpetually have a progressive, liberal president, probably a Democrat, and we will probably see the House of Representatives go into Democrat hands and the Senate will stay in Democrat hands.”

The lawmaker said that would create a permanent progressive class and the country would never return to its constitutional foundations.

“That’s what’s at risk right now. It may sound melodramatic, I don’t mean it that way, but this is that big and that important.”

Bachmann said as much harm as Obamacare is doing to the country, amnesty could be even worse.

“It could bankrupt us even faster. That’s why we need the WND audience to weigh in now and hard. Let your member of Congress know. We need to hear from you.”

She called this “a total call to arms. Don’t count on politicians to stop it. They won’t.

The congresswoman said the political class in Washington, both on the right and on the left, made a decision to have what it calls immigration reform, but it really will be nothing more than amnesty and a disaster for our economy and our country.

“It’s going to lower wages, lower benefits, bankrupt the United States and take away job opportunities for our kids. This will change our nation forever and the future of our nation. And I think it could very likely mean that we will never again have an opportunity to reclaim our constitutional republic.”

Bachmann feels we owe more than that to our ancestors who died to give us this country, and to our children and future generations.

“We will not successfully pass the torch of liberty if we have perpetual amnesty. It won’t happen.”

That’s why she is issuing a call to arms, one more time.

“I hate to tell people once again you’ve got to rise up, but this is the most important bill we are going to deal with in the next two years, and so, if people are going to weigh in at all, now’s the time.

“The Republic is at stake.”

Positive signs even as Senate moves amnesty bill to floor

By Roy Beck

 

We have a ton of work ahead of us, but you have done an amazing job thus far with your phone calls and faxes and personal appearances.

The Senate a couple of minutes ago passed the Motion to Proceed bring S. 744 to the floor for debate.

Don't be alarmed by the fact that in this vote we got only 15 of the 41 votes we needed to kill the bill before it even started. We actually see in this vote some signs that our chances are better than we thought for killing the bill in the final filibuster vote later this month.

A number of the Senators who voted to proceed have announced over the last few days that they will eventually vote against the bill unless it is significantly changed on the floor. And the changes they are demanding are being called unacceptable on the floor right now by Chief Amnestymeister Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.).

We have no doubt that your tens of thousands of calls the last two days planted very powerful seeds among many of the YES voters today that makes them realize that they are going to have a very hard time voting YES at the end when the question is not debate but passage.

The 15 Senators who today said that this bill is so hopelessly out of touch with the needs of America that it shouldn't even be debated included four Senators who a couple of weeks ago were being touted in the media as prime swing voters who would push the final vote over 60:

Kirk of Illinois

Crapo of Idaho

Risch of Idaho

Barrasso of Wyoming

Congratulations to all of you from those three states who have done such a remarkable job of helping those Senators understand both where the voters are in your state and also the moral and practical imperative of stopping this bill.

Back in 2007, we also lost big on this procedural first vote to bring that amnesty bill to the floor. But we built on the solid opposition of a strong bloc of Senators to kill the amnesty on the final vote later.

HERE ARE TODAY'S CHAMPIONS WHO TRIED TO STOP THE AMNESTY BILL IN ITS TRACKS

ALABAMA: Sessions & Shelby

ARKANSAS: Boozman

IDAHO: Crapo & Risch

ILLINOIS: Kirk

IOWA: Grassley

KANSAS: Roberts

LOUISIANA: Vitter

OKLAHOMA: Inhofe

SOUTH CAROLINA: Scot

TEXAS: Cruz

UTAH: Lee

WYOMING: Barrasso & Enzi

Everybody else voted YES, except for three who didn't vote:

ALASKA: Murkowski

ARIZONA: McCain

OKLAHOMA: Coburn

I have no idea at this time why they didn't vote. Murkowski and Coburn have both made strong nods toward voting for the bill recently but have been hammered by the voters.

Interestingly, during the second less-important vote (because it required only a majority, instead of 60 votes), Mississippi Sen. Cochran voted NO, after having voted yes on over-riding the filibuster.

NumbersUSA agreed with four Senators on the Judiciary Committee who said the 1,000+ page bill is such a monstrosity of special-interest gluttony that it did not deserve any debate at all.

Thanks to all of you who responded to Anne's emailed alerts and to my phone calls to you the last two days pushing for a NO vote on bringing the bill to the floor. You laid a great foundation for the way many of these Senators will listen to the debate over the next two or three weeks.

This is the official statement that I sent out to the media:

Many Senators who oppose the bill as now written nonetheless voted to move it to the floor in the mistaken belief that it can be improved into something that serves the interests of the American people when every section of it was written to serve narrow corporate and political special interests.

Their biggest challenge will be showing compassion to the 20 million workers -- disproportionately Black and Hispanic Americans -- who can't find a full-time job, which will require dramatic cuts in the 33 million work permits the bill offers illegal and authorized immigrants in the first decade.

Sen. Sessions (R-Ala.) did a magnificent job in his speech on the floor today, speaking up not only for the 20 million unemployed but for the millions more Americans whose real wages have been driven downward by 30 years of high immigration.

He painted the picture very clearly that this is a bill about helping those affluent Americans who happen also to be greedy at the expense of the most struggling members of our society, and at the expense of the taxpayers.

Please don't grow weary in well-doing.

Those of you who beat back the huge amnesty pushes in 2006, 2007 and 2010 know that we have to act nearly every day to beat the extravagantly funded special interests, but we know from battle experience that we CAN win!
