HOUSE PASSES REAL I.D. ACT
By a vote of 261-161, the House of Representatives last week passed The REAL I.D. Act (H.R. 418) which will help prevent illegal aliens from obtaining driver's licenses, tighten asylum abuse, seal a porous section along the Mexican border near San Diego, and expand the grounds for deportation in terrorism-related cases. Despite a few concerns raised over one "waiver" provision (and whether or not this bill could lead to a national I.D. card), Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO) and the vast majority of House Republicans voted in favor of its passage. Now the bill moves on to the Senate where a vote is expected in the next few weeks. Please help build momentum for this bill by contacting both your Senators today and urging them to vote "Yes" on the REAL ID Act.

SAFER ACT REINTRODUCED IN THE HOUSE
Rep. Gresham Barrett (R-SC) has reintroduced the SAFER Act (H.R. 688) in the House of Representatives. This bill is comprehensive in scope and includes worthy provisions that will help expedite the deportation of alien terrorists and illegal alien criminals, secure our borders against terrorists and drug traffickers, and reduce visa and document fraud. Please help build support for this bill by urging your Congressman to become a co-sponsor of H.R. 688. _______________________________________________________________
NEW HOMELAND SECRETARY BACKS BUSH AMNESTY
The Senate recently confirmed the nomination of Michael Chertoff to be the new Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, replacing Tom Ridge who had previously announced his departure. The vote was 98-0. Mr. Chertoff served briefly as a federal judge on the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals where he denied asylum, ordered deportation or otherwise ruled against foreigners in 14 of 18 immigration cases. As a former Justice Department criminal division chief, Chertoff was applauded for his role in rounding up hundreds of foreigners on immigration violations who were deemed possible terrorist threats following the 9/11 attacks. However, despite this tough law-and-order record, Chertoff made clear during his confirmation hearings on Capitol Hill that he "strongly" supports President Bush's disastrous amnesty/"guestworker" plan for illegal aliens. Holding such a naive and dangerous position on illegal immigration, Secretary Chertoff offers very little reassurance to Americans that he can adequately protect our borders -- especially if the next 9/11 is traced to al-Qaida terrorists who have snuck into the U.S. from Mexico.

AG JOBS AMNESTY INTRODUCED IN SENATE
Sell-out Republican Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID) and ultra-liberal Sen. Ted Kennedy (R-MA) have reintroduced the AgJOBS Amnesty Bill (S. 359) which will grant amnesty to upwards of one million illegal alien farm workers in the U.S. and bring in thousands of new migrant workers under the H-2A agricultural visa program. In related news, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), another White House water boy pushing amnesty on Capitol Hill, recently stated in the Washington Times his intentions to introduce a new amnesty/"guestworker" bill that would fulfill many of Pres. Bush's proposals by creating new categories of seasonal and non-seasonal "visas" for illegal aliens already in the U.S. and new foreign workers. Citizens Lobby strongly opposes any and all amnesty bills! Help us continue to fight amnesty and the open-borders lobby by signing our Petition to Stop Amnesty.

FBI, CIA WARN OF NEW AL-QAIDA ATTACKS
In recent testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee assessing global terror threats, CIA Director Porter Goss bluntly warned that "it may only be a matter of time before al-Qaida or other groups attempt to use chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear weapons." FBI Director Robert Mueller reiterated his concerns over terrorist "sleeper" cells inside the U.S. who are poised to unleash a wave of terror attacks. And in written testimony to the committee, Adm. James Loy, deputy secretary of Homeland Security, described growing concerns over al-Qaida using the Mexican border to infiltrate the U.S. Apparently, President Bush does not share these grave concerns as he continues to push his dangerous amnesty plan for illegal aliens (which will only increase the flood of illegals and Arab/Muslim 'OTM' illegals). And the President still refuses one obvious solution --- placing U.S. troops on our southern border.

SAMUEL FRANCIS: CONSERVATIVE HERO & PATRIOT
Long-time conservative columnist and activist Samuel Francis passed away this last Tuesday night at the age of 57 following unsuccessful heart surgery. For many of us traditional and "paleo" conservatives, we will remember Sam for his eloquent writings on immigration, race and culture, and his courage to take on the neo-con establishment within the GOP. During his distinguished career, he was a legislative aide to the late Sen. John East (R-NC), editorial writer & editor at the Washington Times, published author of several notable books, regular contributor to Chronicles magazine, and a syndicated columnist for Creators Syndicate. He will be sorely missed. May his soul rest in peace.

"Dyslexics of the world, UNTIE!"
Way too funny!! I truly can't stop my laughing/snorting.
sorry.. i have already contacted my senators urging them not to vote on the NDL bill. Thune's aid told me he had recieved many many calls from republicans in SD urging a NO vote.
make it illegal for illegals to have a drivers license like Iowa did this week and there you go. or - how about a bill that says illegal emmigrants are illegal..
good grief.. this is reduntant and idiotic... but hey, pass more LAWS for the law abbiding citizens and pretend the congress critters are working for you ... and show em your papers.. and do you have a permit for that? ...
As it is written: Does Adm. Loy expect AQ to have enough people to lift the dotted line that represents the Mexican border and infiltrate the US with it?
