EXCLUSIVE: GOP LEADERSHIP IGNORES IMMIGRATION ENTIRELY IN TOWN HALL TALKING POINTS
Breibart ^ | August26,2015 | by JULIA HAHN

Republican legislators have gotten their messaging instructions from their top leaders: Tout unpopular free-trade measures during the August recess, ignore popular curbs on the migration that saps Americans’ wages.

Breitbart News has exclusively obtained an internal August recess messaging instruction set for Republican legislators produced by Sen. John Thune (R-SD)52% , who orchestrates the GOP Senators’ PR pitch. This 20-page messaging instruction manual seems to confirm prior reports by Breitbart News that Republican Congressional leadership has no plans to enact popular immigration reforms to curb large-scale migration.

Each August, Senators and Congressmen return home to listen to constituents’ concerns and to tout the party’s actions in Washington. The recess is set to end Tuesday after Labor Day.

“In this packet you will find a number of resources to help you draw attention to our 2015 accomplishments,” Thune wrote to all 54 GOP Senators. “Please use the August recess to hold events in your state highlighting the work you’ve done and the successes we’ve achieved in the Senate,” he wrote. “Spread the word about [the Senate] getting back to work.”

Maine has a RINO and a communist for Senators. I hear they’ve been “forgetting to show up” for their town halls.

Amen! If they have an “r” after their name and they go along and don’t fight the leadership, they are part of the problem.

Good thing Trump isn’t ignoring illegal immigration. It’s why he has the attention of the American voters.

Last gasp. Even *Luntz* caught a clue - we don’t need the GOPe. They need us, and they think they’re playing our dance tunes.

Trump & Cruz.
