Advocates of a far-reaching overhaul of the nation's immigration system are hoping to use their allies on the religious right to prod the Republican Party to embrace reform.
They aim to use a broad consensus among religious leaders and institutions to promote a rewrite of immigration laws as a moral imperative, mobilizing conservatives to pressure the Republican politicians they have long supported on the basis of other issues.
Their efforts come as the GOP is reassessing its position on immigration, including opposition to normalizing the status of immigrants who entered the country illegally.
In a sobering report released Monday, the Republican National Committee recommended that the party embrace and champion comprehensive immigration change.

These are not conservative religious people. They are socialists or worse.
These aren’t Christian Conservatives. They are Mike Huckabee-type Christian Socialists.
I still cannot fathom the need for reform that is being preached. We have laws. Leave, get in the back of the line and wait your turn. For the children of these ILLEGALS—blame YOUR parents, not US taxpayers.
The media is using the positions of certain "religious" individuals, along with the disappointing, pro-amnesty ("pathway to citizenship" rubbish) positions of Marco Rubio, Rand Paul and Ben Carson, to make Constitutionalists feel overwhelmed enough to just give up on this issue.
What a steaming pile of lies this article is.
A Biblical Perspective on Immigration Policy

THE NO SPIN ZONE
For Christians who desire the straight facts
While I agree that we must do something to bring these aliens who have illegally resided and raised new families here, we would be making a GRAVE MISTAKE to allow them to vote.
Until immigrants can prove that they will vote out abortionists, I am against allowing any immigrants in.
I am a Latina and spent 1 year living in Mexico among the poor. Unless folks understand the cultural implications of these folks and exactly what we are bringing over here and subjecting Americans Citizens to, We should not be allowing them to stay here.
I Lived it.
Also, why hasn’t someone in Congress done a study on where the folks from the 1986 Amnesty are right now?
A GOOD READ......................................
Did the 1986 Amnesty actually bring benefit to the United States or did it bring undue burden?
Let me start by telling you what you already know. Calling your Senators may never change their minds. However, they still need to get the calls so they understand how many people oppose them and that is especially true for those in your state.
Calling members of Congress if you aren’t their constituent is a waste of time, they don’t care unless you are from their district. But Boehner and other members of the Republican Leadership are different, as Speaker of the House, he needs to listen to you, or he isn’t doing his job, as Speaker he is a Representative of all U.S. Citizens! This is what is so maddening, these people (illegals) aren’t citizens, we are, and the majority of citizens, poll after poll shows… citizens don’t support amnesty! So they are actually concerning themselves with the interests of foreign nationals over the American Citizens they were elected to represent. That needs to be said to them, over and over. They have become elitists, they know better than we do, once they take that attitude, they are no longer representatives they are oppressors.
One of the things I am encouraging people to do is ask for a Congressional Report to be done, before they even bring a CIR bill to the Congress to consider. The study needs to determine:
Did the 1986 Amnesty actually bring benefit to the United States or did it bring undue burden? Here is why I think this is important.
· I have interviewed personally ICE officers, in Ohio, Alabama and Oklahoma who are responsible for processing immigrants for deportation after they have served their jail sentence. All 3 offices have told me independently, 99.9% of the people they process to deport coming out of jail, are 1986 Amnesty recipients.
· Prison Guards in high security prisons in California, who I have personally spoken with have told me, 90% of the harden criminals in jail with life sentences in those California jails are the children of 1986 Amnesty recipients. Their parents had no commitment to the United States, and they don’t either. Their parents had no respect for the law, and they don’t either.
· In a report that the Center for Immigration Studies did in 1996, 10 years after the Amnesty, they found that this group of people, once legalized, went on to burden the U.S. taxpayers in a huge way. See the report here: http://www.cis.org/IRCAAmnesty-10YearReview
· The Heritage Foundation study in 2007 said then the proposed amnesty then would cost the U.S. Taxpayers 2.6 Trillion see that report here: http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2007/06/amnesty-will-cost-us-taxpayers-at-least-26-trillion
· The 1986 Amnesty set off the biggest wave of illegal immigration in U.S. history, it was nearly 4 million in 1986, but estimates are between 11-20 million this time. Before we do that, we need to know if 1986 Amnesty brought over all good to America first. No one has taken the time or effort to find that out, it is just a simply “solution” because they already know how to do it. But it is bad right out of the starting blocks because:
1. They haven’t determined the impact to America from 1986 Amnesty
2. They don’t have provisions this time to prohibit access from Social Service programs except at the Federal level, they will still be able to access state and local, which is where the bulk of the expense occurs.
3. They have included people who have committed some types of crime in their Amnesty plan, and they shouldn’t allow anyone who has had a run in with law enforcement
4. They haven’t addressed absolute employer enforcement by requiring mandatory E-Verify, and stiff fines and jail time by law breaking employers
5. They haven’t addressed the problem of birthright citizenship, changing if necessary the constitution which should require that a natural born American should have on parent who is an American Citizen.
6. They haven’t addressed the issue of granting an education of anyone K-12 or College at taxpayer expense who isn’t here with legal status.
They want to make us think this will serve us well, well it isn’t really comprehensive to begin with, and if this is such a good idea, PROVE IT! Show us the results of what legalizing 4 million illegal aliens did for us in 1986.
I have been calling everyone to demand this study, SHOW US THE PROOF! Then we’ll decide if we want to do this again.

they aren’t conservatives
The Evangelical Immigration Table, a coalition of religious groups that represent more than 100,000 churches, are making grass-roots phone calls and a widespread effort to get Christians to read 40 Bible verses that deal with how to treat strangers and neighbors as part of a prayer challenge called “I Was a Stranger.”..Strange how this welcome the stranger is only applied in America. We could ship back illegals who are from Mexico, back to Mexico and they would be strangers and all the churches in Mexico could welcome back all of the strangers
Dont be surprised when your new boss announces she was a Obama dreamer, gringo
Message!
As we have explained, the Amnesty 2013 perpetrators plan to release actual legislation for the first time right after Easter while most of America is still in holiday mode. They plan to pass the bills in the House and Senate quickly before most of America learns of what is in the legislation.
They are doing this because they know that a large majority of Americans will oppose what they plan to do!
US Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) has been true blue to the American public on immigration issues and he is making a major move today. He is calling for hearings on the Senate Amnesty bill to slow it down to buy us enough time to forewarn the public. Of course the Amnesty sellout Republicans like John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and their new helpers Marco Rubio and Rand Paul won’t sign Jeff Sessions’s letter calling for the hearings! Each of them support ramrodding this bill down your throats.
Time for us to help! Please take 15 minutes as soon as possible to help Senator Sessions Stop Amnesty for illegal aliens in 2013!
Step 1: Review and circulate this article which details how Senator Sessions is calling for hearings on the bill with the aid of several allied senators....

Step 2:
Craft your own distinctive message from our sample message to [FONT=Open Sans]Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, to schedule hearings on this complex bill.
“I am calling/writing to ask Senator Leahy to honor the request of Senator Sessions and many members of his committee to hold full hearings on any immigration bill produced by the ‘Gang of 8’. The American public deserves an opportunity to know what is in any important bill like this and to have time to react. It is clear that some senators want to rush immigration legislation because it will contain a nation altering Amnesty provision that will harm many Americans. I’m calling/writing to ask Senator Leahy not to harm America by allowing McCain, Graham, and Rubio to rush legislation. We need full hearings that include Americans who oppose Amnesty for illegals testifying!”

Thank you for taking the time to saturate these offices with calls, emails, and faxes using ALIPAC’s strategies and messages. Be prepared for pushback, denials, and false claims from the guilty ones.
Let’s give this all we’ve got Americans!

did they say whether these were American citizens or just still “legalized ilegal aliens” who never cared or bothered to be naturalized...
I believe only the second group can be deported. Good question.
