I just send Frist a message via Congress.org. Here's the text of what I sent:
Dear Sir,
I wholeheartedly disagree with your "new plan" for dealing with illegal immigration.
The crux of the issue is in the name of the issue itself : "illegal".
You are rewarding those who have broken the laws of this country and invaded our schools, healthcare, jobs and jails the longest.
While I agree that America is a melting pot, we are a melting pot of laws. Your actions have shown that you have no respect for those laws and are willing to allow others to break them for the sake of votes.
The inaction of the republicans regarding this issue and the continuing push for compromises will not gain you votes, sir. This will not only help further the descent into 3rd world status for much of the US, it will also generate millions of new illegal immigrants and cost republicans the
house, senate and presidency, not to mention the billions in social programs designed for people who shouldn't be here to begin with.
It is an absolute shame that I'm having to write this and express these opinions to a senator who is supposed to look out for and push the will of the people, instead of doing the exact opposite and at the same time help millions of people who have broken our laws remain here untouched.
Yay, they're getting fined and charged back taxes. How exactly do you propose to track people who, according to our records, don't even exist? You can't.
Keep it up, sir.
A real conservative,
...TheZMan...
You should have started that with- Dear Sir or Madame
Great letter. How were you able to send it to Frist from congress.org (or is he your Senator?). I could only send mine to Feinstein and Boxer - what a waste of time.
