Breaking! New Immigration Bill Gives 'MarcoPhone' to Immigrant Guest Workers
Brietbart ^ | Wednesday April 17, 2013

Posted on 04/17/2013 8:41:48 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

According to the newly filed bill, immigrants who are allowed to enter the United States under a work visa, will be ‘granted’ a cellular phone. Move over “Obama phone,” we present the new ‘Hola, Como Estas?!’ MarcoPhone.

Here is the actual mention of the free phones in the bill-

SEC. 1107. ACCESS TO EMERGENCY PERSONNEL. (a) SOUTHWEST BORDER REGION EMERGENCY COM-MUNICATIONS GRANTS.— The Secretary, in consultation with the governors of the States in the Southwest Border region, shall establish a 2-year grant program, to be administered by the Secretary, to improve emergency communications in the Southwest ELIGIBILITY FOR GRANTS.—An individual is eligible to receive a grant under this subsection if the individual demonstrates that he or she— (A) regularly resides or works in the Southwest Border region; is at greater risk of border violence due to the lack of cellular service at his or her residence or business and his or her proximity to the Southern border. (3) USE OF GRANTS.—Grants awarded under this subsection may be used to purchase satellite telephone communications systems and service that— (A) can provide access to 9–1–1 service; and (B) are equipped with global positioning

You would think that the government agency where these immigrants initially applied for their guest worker visa, was already situated in an urban environment with adequate cell phone service, right? Something tells me that these quest workers will not be taking a short cut through the ‘cell phone signal-less’desert to get to and from work.

I don't have a cellphone, no dumb phone no smart phone.

Maybe I should go out of the country, and sneak back in to become an illegal so I get all the free stuff.

Hell why not satellite phones, prepaid vacation time and frequent flyer miles too?

(B) are equipped with global positioning.
Watch they will try to sell this to the uninformed as a way to keep track of all the “immigrants”. Rubio is turning out to be like almost all other “Hispanics”, it’s about “their” people not Americans! I put him firmly in the RINO category.

I’d say he pretty much lost his shot at 2016.

Heads up. Just heard on the radio that McCain just exited an immigration meeting in the Oval Orifice with Obama.

Goodbye, Marco.

And give me back that $100 bucks I gave you for running your Senate campaign under false pretenses.

Who added this stupid bull$hit to the bill. Besides the bill being absolutely the wrong Immigration reform bill, here we go again with idiotic pork. It’s the Democrat Party, have-a-phone-on-us-and-vote-for-us-in-November, phone.

frequent flyer miles too?

They sort of have that now. They turn themselves in and get flown to Mexico, at US taxpayer expense, of course. After a couple of weeks or so vacation with the family and friends, they sneak back across the border and work until they want another vacation.

As long as it says "Press 1 for English, press 2 to talk to a Border Patrol officer.".

Yep. Who does he think will pay for these phones? The American citizens are going to get stuck paying for them, of course.

These RINOS discust me. No wonder they lose elections. Who wants to vote for crap like this?

I hate to say, "I told ya so."

Rubio is was a stealth commie racist anti-American open-borders smooth-talking back-stabbing puke.

If amnesty passes, we pretty much lost our shot at 2016.
