Stunning facts about the proposed immigration bill

SENATOR SESSIONS ON SECURING AMERICA'S BORDERS ACT Mr. President, I thank Senator Leahy, ranking member on the Judiciary Committee. I have received just this afternoon in my office some disturbing news in the form of correspondence from the Congressional Budget Office. It suggests a number of areas where the amendment we are talking about here today, No. 3424, the immigration so-called compromise, violates our budget and the rules of the Senate. Let me read from the correspondence we have received. This is something, as you know, Mr. President, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, that we never discussed at all. It is not a matter we spent any time at all discussing as we moved forward with legislation which ultimately cleared that committee and came to the floor — legislation which I thought was not good legislation and which I opposed, and so did the Senator from Texas, who just relinquished the Chair. We didn't discuss the financial impact of the legislation before us. Stand Up For America !

"We have room for but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

A Plan for Black Monday - Tomorrow May 1st.

To help counter the 'Pro Illegal Alien Citizenship Give Away and Open Borders Demonstrations'.

FIRST of ALL - For those of you who have planned a Counter Protest Event or will be attending one - THANK YOU and Bless You.

Secondly --- For those who will be by your computer today and tomorrow we need to try to influence news coverage, commentary and analysis.

Influencing News Coverage - especially Cable T.V. News. We need to hammer CABLE NEWS - today and all day tomorrow.

Cable T.V. News will have the most effect in shaping and slanting the news coverage and angles in the next few days.

- FoxNews has the biggest audience (as far as I know) - they generally are much more fair than the rest
FoxNews is going to cover the Boycott ALL DAY LONG - they have announced.

- CNN -- Except for Lou Dobbs and Jack Cafferty - CNN Cable News is a near total loss.

- MSNBC - is also a near total loss to get any fairness.

- The broadcast news of ABC, CBS, NBC are a total loss - but should be hammered anyway,

The only issue I have heard voiced on cable news this weekend is the difference of opinion between the factions of the pro Illegal Alien crowd - whether to demonstrate and boycott or not to do that. This is all that has been talked about - as if it is the real issue.

Also - most commentary has been that Americans are debating about how much and how many to give Amnesty to. No mention has been made of what the vast Majority of American Citizens really want - no mention of the overwhelming poll numbers - NONE. Cable News is ignoring us as much as the President and the Senate - (thank God that quite a few in the House of Representatives are still with us).

NOTE: Opinions expressed not my own!

Please - Hammer them with your opinion on this Illegal Alien fiasco. - TODAY and All Day Tomorrow.

We can SHAPE THE NEWS - if thousands of emails are sent.

They're knocking at your door! Couldn't be worse than that! The other day, a few were sitting under the tree in front of my window, yakking espanol, and I ran 'em off. Some neighbor had hired them to load stuff in a truck.

If anyone should know how things work in TX, you'd think it would be GWB...

It is absolutely true that the politicians are OUR employees. If I don't get reponses I like or want via phone, I pull that one out. There are very few of us honoring the laws of the land anymore, and the few does not include the government.

Bill to increase competitiveness


BY ELISABETH MALKIN
El Universal
April 30, 2006
Congress voted late Thursday to strengthen antitrust laws, a measure advocates say will bolster the economy´s flagging competitiveness by restricting a company´s ability to dominate a crucial industry.
The Senate unanimously approved the bill, following the lead of the lower house, the Chamber of Deputies, which had done the same on Tuesday.
The measure passed despite lobbying by Carlos Slim Helu, whose control of Teléfonos de México, the country´s dominant telecommunications company, has helped him become one of the world´s richest men.
But Eduardo Pérez Motta, the top antitrust regulator, said political parties had an eye on the July 2 vote when they passed the law.
"We have to put the interests of consumers at the center of the country´s public policy," said Pérez Motta, who heads the Federal Competition Commission (CFC).
Luis de la Calle, a business consultant and columnist who worked to support the law, said that increased competition would help the economy modernize.
Mexico´s economy has performed poorly since President Vicente Fox took office six years ago. Economists have said the growth rates of less than 4 percent were too low to create new jobs for an expanding work force. Many economists argue that a reason is the lack of competition in many sectors of the economy.
Many leading industries here are dominated by one or two companies that use their market power to block new competitors.
Telmex, for example, controls 95 percent of all local lines. Mexico´s two brewers have a lock on distribution channels. Two companies control almost everything viewers can watch on broadcast television. Energy remains in the hands of two state monopolies.
Foreign competitors like MCI and the brewer SABMiller complain about the difficulties of breaking into Mexico´s market.
But the CFC has been hamstrung by weak laws. Companies have paid only 15 percent of fines imposed and have tied up many CFC decisions via legal actions.
The new law quadruples fines, to as much as US$5.5 million, for antitrust violations. In the case of repeat violations, the CFC could fine a company as much as 10 percent of its sales and ultimately even move to break it up.
Pérez Motta said higher fines might spur many companies to change. "Once you know the fines are higher," he said, "you just don´t run the light."
It will also make CFC opinions binding on other regulators. In particular, many critics argue that Mexico´s telecommunications regulator has done little to check Telmex´s power. Now, the CFC will have a say in writing regulations as new technology enhances the possibility of competition.
The CFC also plans to look at airports, railroads and customs brokers: all potential bottlenecks that add to the price of finished goods, Pérez Motta said.
The new law creates protection for whistle-blowers and allows the CFC to conduct searches. It also eliminates ambiguities companies have used to win injunctions against the CFC.

A MUST Read Article

CONCERNED: Sandra Sweet of Mission Viejo has planned a “pro-American” rally in Santa Ana for Monday. “I’m just a person who wants to go out there and be heard,” she says.

"I got into it because I became very concerned, as a lot of Americans did, when we saw 500,000 people marching in the streets with Mexican flags and American flags turned upside down," Sweet said.

Sweet is among a growing number of people who, frustrated by the debate and Washington's failure to pass any immigration policy changes, are moving from apathy to action. Although she expects only 50 people at her lunchtime rally, many more are urging their friends and families to counter the Monday boycott by taking part in that other great American pastime: shopping.

"Shop 'till I drop," is the answer Barbara Coe, the leader of the California Coalition for Immigration Reform, gives when people ask what she'll be doing Monday. She's going to buy a dishwasher, a purchase she's put off for more than a year.

People to counter Monday's boycott by shopping and speaking up

"It's time for America to wake up and send a message of our own to those who think they have the power to change our country to suit their needs and wants," reads a mass e-mail Gaskins sent last week. "It's time again for the 'Silent Majority' to be silent no longer."
~Jay Gaskins
