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 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."

Sen. Obama is holding a Town Hall Meeting Today! When:Today! Monday, April 10, 2006 2:00pm Where: Loyola University's Lakeshore Campus Joseph Gentile Center in the gym Why:Members of Congress appear almost weekly in their home district/state, but rarely publicize their schedules. These events can be a wonderful opportunity to speak with your Member of Congress and raise your immigration concerns with them directly. The more Members hear from constituents who want lower immigration numbers while they are at home, the more likely they will be to vote the right way when they're in Washington, D.C.
Wish you knew!

Today's Roundup of the Live thread on the Marches today. A big thanks to Danae for posting it!
Please mark your calendars to be in Washington, D.C. on Sunday, April 23, 2006 for a rally calling on the federal government to secure our borders, enforce our immigration laws and to not give amnesty to illegal aliens.
A formal announcement will be coming soon after a few details are worked out. Time is short, so I wanted to give everyone a heads up that something is in the works.
Please note, this will not be a rally for those who hate immigrants. This will be a rally for those who love America and want to preserve it for all Americans and legal immigrants.

They are changing debate by calling them immigration protests instead of anti-Sensenbrenner marches. Tonight well report on these behind-the-scenes groups and what they hope to achieve by organizing the protests and manipulating the language. Several political candidates today participated in rallies across the country, as both Democrats and Republicans court the Latino vote for 2006 and 2008. Some lawmakers hope that supporting a guest-worker program will win their support. But the Latino vote, while growing, is still a small fraction of the overall turnout. Why are lawmakers trying to win over this relatively small group of voters? Congressman Xavier Becerra is among the list of elected officials marching in favor of illegal aliens.
Piper you do such excellent and thorough work, thanks for the ping! I will read it tomorrow when I've got more time! : )

Well thank you! I keep trying to improve it and make it easier on the eyes, know I cannot possibly post all that is happening at FR, but the highlights. I get a gazillion pings, many for the same article. Bear with me, thank you for posting, I think Immigrating Freeper's are burnt out today ;)
I hope the daily summary is getting easier on the eyes...many are so heartsick today and have to "Step Away"
Unfortunately, the problem is now in position to change the outcome of the solution.
I kinda tuned out today myself.
I think the House and Senate know what we want....hoping the House will hold them to the task.
A FreeRepublic mention!

Mad as hell Coalition thread has a link where they will deliver your email to congress. (Oliver North is part of this.) I just sent a 2 page email... being it was a mad as hell deal... I threw etiquette to the wind (being 2 pages and all.) Tried everything else... why not this!
What a mess this is.
It's heartbreking!
A Republic, sir... if you can keep it.
God have mercy on us. And ... I hope these elected sworn leaders fight for our sovereignty. How can I get in more trouble over a speeding ticket than illegals defying our country's laws and liberties? Why do their demands supersede the demands of citizens?
