Sen. Cornyn Makes Play with Border Amendment
Texas' senior Republican Senator, John Cornyn, has quickly emerged as the key negotiator in the passage of the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill. Offering a 134-page amendment to address the bill's lack of border security measures, the second-ranking Senate Republican has announced that if the Senate adopts his amendment, he will vote for the Gang of Eight's amnesty legislation.

Reid Kills Key Border Security Amendment
The Senate rejected a key border security amendment to the Gang of Eight's "comprehensive" immigration reform bill (S. 744). The amendment, authored by Senator Chuck Grassley would have prohibited the Secretary of DHS from granting illegal aliens amnesty until the Secretary has maintained effective control of the border for at least six months.

Rubio Fails to Justify Vote Against Grassley Amendment
Senator Marco Rubio last week scrambled to explain his decision to vote against a key border security amendment offered by Senator Grassley to the Gang of Eight amnesty bill (S.744). The Grassley Amendment would have simply provided that DHS could not begin processing amnesty applications until the border has been under effective control for at least six months.

[h=5]Texans For Arizona's New Immigration Law
[/h][h=5]From the article:

Agents from the Department of Homeland Security raided as many as 15 7-Eleven shops in New York and Virginia early Monday morning, according to multiple reports.

Nine store owners and mangers have been arrested on charges of harboring and hiring undocumented immigrants, The New York Times reports. The store owners also stand accused of wire fraud and using fake Social Security numbers to pay their workers.

Federal authorities said that the raids are a part of an investigation into human smuggling, identity theft and money laundering, according to the AP. The respective store owners allegedly helped smuggle the workers into the U.S. from Pakistan.

A majority of the simultaneous raids happened in Suffolk County, Long Island, according to PIX 11 News. The owners of the raided stores will be charged with harboring undocumented immigrants and not paying the minimum wage to their employees.

As of Monday morning, authorities had arrested approximately 20 people in total.

The probe is as "part of a nationwide sweep involving hundreds of agents," according to the Long Island Newsday.

ACTION ALERT
picture-782940.jpg

MELANIE OUBRE
Please participate in the Tweet Up tomorrow using #StopAmnesty
Dear NumbersUSA Twitter Activists,
Tomorrow at 2 p.m. eastern time, NumbersUSA will join other organizations in a Stop Amnesty "Tweet Up." The goal of the Tweet Up is to get the hashtag #StopAmnesty trending and to overwhelm Senators' twitter accounts with tweets detailing the flaws of the amnesty bill.
We ask that at 2 p.m. Eastern time/ 1 p.m. Central time/ noon Mountain time/ 11 a.m. Pacific time, you use the hashtag#StopAmnesty and tweet messages to your Senator. We also ask that you stay engaged on Twitter and promote the message as much as you can.
Tweet yourself, retweet others, reply to naysayers, etc. - just make sure you are using #StopAmnesty!
Please keep an eye on these twitter pages belonging to other groups who will be participating. Experts from Center for Immigration Studies, Eagle Forum, Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), Heritage Action, Heritage Foundation, ProEnglish, and Americans4Work will be tweeting about the bill.

The main points we hope you push in your tweets are these:

  • The CBO report finds that S 744 will decline wages of legal workers for 12 years and will increase unemployment for 6 years while only stopping 25% of illegal immigration.
  • The bill will bring millions of new workers, with every skill level, at a time when 20 million Americans cannot find a full time job. There is no labor shortage.
  • This bill was written by special interests who want cheap labor and do not care about the welfare of immigrants.
  • The bill will weaken current law. It fails to build a border fence and implement an entry/exit system - both of which have already been mandated by Congress.
  • Law enforcement is overwhelmingly against the bill including the President of the ICE workers union.
  • No matter what amendments may be agreed to today, the bill is still amnesty first and enforcement later, maybe. Members of the Gang of 8 have admitted this and refuse to tie border security to amnesty.
  • The American people disagree with that sequence. They want enforcement FIRST.

Stand With South Dakota Against The Illegal Alien Invasion


RED ALERT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CODE RED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RED ALERT!!!!!

LIST OF SENATORS OF CALL TOLL FREE!!!

RED ALERT! WE NEED TO MAKE CALLS LIKE WE NEVER HAVE BEFORE! RED ALERT!

If you feel like making a REAL difference, below are the Senators who most could use a call from you today.

Just remember that this morning, two Republican Senators from Tennessee and one from North Dakota are trying to save the amnesty with an amendment designed to look like it fixes the enforcement problems of the bill, but it really is just a fake-out.

We have to make sure the fence-sitting Senators know that the public won't be fooled by a watered down amendment that throws a little more money at border security but leaves most of the loopholes in place and still gives the amnesty work permits and legalization before any enforcement happens at all.

Talking Points:The CBO analysis of the bill concluded that Americans are being asked to swallow a 12-year decline in wages for American workers, plus a 6-year increase in unemployment, in return for enforcement that won't cut illegal immigration by more than 25%.

In addition, S. 744 makes the country less secure, according to the president of the union of ICE immigration enforcement agents. The bill weakens current laws on fencing, on the entry-exit system and much more.

NO FIG LEAF BORDER AMENDMENT FROM SEN. CORKER WILL COVER THE SHAME OF IT ALL!

Call All These!
Calling is simple! You can use the toll-free number we've provided below that will connect you directly to their DC offices. When the staffer answers, tell him/her that the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill can't be fixed with amendments and the Senator should vote NO on S.744.

Grassfire Update:

Dear Jim,

The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office released its report on the economic impact of the Senate amnesty bill. (Read the full document here.) The CBO's findings are so bad that Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) said on the Senate floor Tuesday:


"It's going to increase unemployment and it's going to pull down wages. That is exactly the wrong thing that ought to be happening at this time. How in the world can we justify passing a bill that hammers the American working man and woman that's out trying to feed a family?"

According to the CBO, enacting "The Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act" would decrease wages until 2025, slightly raise unemployment through 2020, raise interest rates and (ironically) the bill "would probably increase the number of unauthorized residents.”

Wait! What? An immigration bill that actually brings in more illegal immigrants? Only in Obama's America.

And regarding claims that S. 744 will reduce America's $17 trillion deficit, the CBO says the bill will "have no significant net effect on federal budget deficits during the coming decade." Also, this legislation "would lower per capita GNP by .07 percent in 2023."

Supporters of the Senate Amnesty Bill point to CBO estimates that claim this legislation will have a more positive economic impact in years 11 through 20. But opponents argue that those benefits don't justify legalizing 11 million illegal immigrants now.

+ + Sign The Petition Opposing The "Gang of 8" Bill

The so-called "Gang of Eight," four Republicans and four Democrats who are the architects of S. 744, are counting on you to remain silent. But if you want to protect and preserve America's national security, our economy and our way of life, now is the time to make your voice heard!

Grassfire has launched a petition platform for team members, like you, to oppose the "Gang of Eight" immigration bill. Add your name and our representatives will hand-deliver your petition to each of those lawmakers, and other House and Senate leaders, next week.


Go here now to sign this no-amnesty petition and make your voice heard on Capitol Hill:

www.grassfire.com/985/petition.asp

+ + "Now Is Definitely The Time!"

We heard from a Senate contact on Capitol Hill yesterday, who said that "now is definitely the time" to energize and mobilize grassroots Americans to oppose this bill. She also told Grassfire:


"I'm very nervous the bill could pass but it could also be stopped, I think. I understand though that people are tired!"

Conservative patriots must not "grow weary in well-doing." Now is definitely the time to make your voice heard! As your online, activism services provider, Grassfire is ready to deliver your petition next week in advance of key votes.

Join the growing chorus of grassroots voices opposing the Left's latest attempt to weaken and destabilize America by granting amnesty to 11 million illegal immigrants. Go here now to sign:

www.grassfire.com/985/petition.asp

Thank you, in advance, for taking a stand!

The Grassfire Team

P.S. Our records indicate that you haven't yet signed the petition opposing the Senate Amnesty Bill. Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid is pushing to bring S. 744 to the floor for a full vote by the end of next week. Make your voice heard by allowing Grassfire to represent you during our upcoming petition delivery on Capitol Hill.

[FONT=arial, helvetica]Please urge passage of the SAFE Act to strengthen and fortify enforcement![/FONT]
We still have much work to do in fighting the Senate massive amnesty bill but we also need to support a tough enforcement measure, HR 2278, that passed the House Judiciary Committee. The SAFE Act(Strengthen and Fortify Enforcement Act) would give local police the authority to investigate and arrest illegal aliens and transfer them to federal authorities for deportation.


House committees are considering a number of immigration bills, and there are efforts in that chamber to produce a bipartisan amnesty bill. We are involved in a long struggle to promote a less crowded, more secure America, and need to support true immigration reform towards that goal.

MELANIE OUBRE
Please take a few minutes this weekend to help stop amnesty. This is your LAST CHANCE!
leap-logo.png
Dear NumbersUSA Activists,
Your Senators are on their way home today, and some may already be in state. They will most likely be voting on the final passage of amnesty next Thursday, June 27th. That makes this weekend your ABSOLUTE LAST CHANCE for in-person activism.
We have some very important information that your Senators should see before filing their vote for a bill that would change the course of history - for the worst.
Majority Leader Harry Reid told your Senators this entire week they would probably be working all weekend in Washington. He made the call late last night to end Senate business this afternoon. Therefore, your Senators just found out they have an open schedule and are making plans for the weekend right now.
Please take a few minutes out of your weekend to help us stop this monstrosity!
Here's what you can do. . .
Call your Senators' offices in your state - not their DC line. The numbers can be found here under "Contact Information."
Ask the staffer who picks up the phone if your Senator has any events this weekend that you could attend. If the staffer does not know, ask them politely to get you in touch with the state scheduler or director.
If there are no events, ask the Senate staffer when you could come by the local office to drop off the crucial materials that are in this email. Senate office hours on the weekends can vary.
Like I have said many times before, appearing IN-PERSON at an office sends a much stronger message than just voicing your concerns over the phone. Plus, bringing materials to the office while Senators are in town raises the chance that these materials will get into your Senators' hands at some point this weekend.
Here are some easy to print materials to bring with you to an event or Senate office:

  • A lot of bogus polls have been making their way into local media outlets in your state. These polls were paid for by pro-amnesty, cheap labor-seeking groups. So, it is imperative that Senators and their staff see the truthful polling here and here that shows Americans want enforcement first and oppose increases in foreign workers.
  • This chart that shows we do not have a labor shortage. The latest CBO study finds that the bill would bring in 46 million new immigrant workers in the next 20 years. This influx of job seekers would doom American workers for decades.
  • This graphic that details the unfair amnesty that would be granted to illegal aliens under the bill.
  • Rosemary Jenks' latest article describing how the bill would weaken current enforcement and threaten our national security.
  • Chris Chmielenski's blog about the CBO report. Bottom line: higher unemployment, lower wages, less enforcement, and more illegal immigration.
  • There is a secret amendment making its way into the bill. We haven't seen it yet. Pro-American worker Senators haven't seen it yet. But we do know this: no matter what is in the Corker-Hoeven amendment dealing with border security, this bill will still grant amnesty before any enforcement happens, increase unemployment, reduces wages for American workers, and issue 33 million green cards to foreign job seekers in the first decade.
