U.S. SENATORS WHO VOTED 'NO' ON S.2611, AGAINST AMNESTY ... 32 R 4 D

What follows is a listing of the Senators who voted AGAINST the S. 2611 amnesty bill. I have expanded the list to include each Senator's comments specific to the legislation, where available, and listed the link to their e-mail address or contact form.

I have now sent a message of "Thank You" and support to each one. I hope many of you will want to do the same in greater of lesser degree, perhaps contacting only your own Senator and a few others, hopefully all. I tried to make it *easy* for you.

WHY DO SO? Many of these Senators will be in 'conference' with House members and need to know they did the right thing and please continue. 'Thank You' is an affirmation to all that they did the right thing if and when similarly unacceptable legislation returns to the Senate for a vote.

Or, please add your thoughts of why this is a good action.

Just Piper has researched and compiled similar information on members of the House Immigration Caucus, for which I hope she will create a thread also when we know who will be conferees.

I wrote my Texas Senators Cornyn & Hutchison this weekend. But your right, I should write the other 30 Republican and 4 Democrap Senators (sigh) as well.

[jch10]

Thank you for the list. I have written all these senators.

Sadly, neither of my senators(FL)were on this list.

{Whispering} He's a racist so, maybe We should take his opinion too seriously.

I'm in Iowa and Allen is on my radar screen. McCain is not.

Thank you.

I have some time this morning so I'll get to work writing and calling all of them to offer my gratitude and encouragment.

Vitter is the first Republican in the Senate since before the Civil War, right

The first Rep. Senator for La. in a very, very long time.

[Just A Nobody]

Your thoughts?

The only one I would trust of the 10 is SESSIONS!

[stephenjohnbanker]

I just sent Sessions a long thank you.

Bump!

Thanks for that info on the Michigan senator, as I wondered about Dem motivations especially where no statement was made re their S. 2611 vote.

[La Enchiladita]

Fill in the blanks, indeed. That's what we're looking for.


That, and e-mails to the Senators so far on our side.

[Covenantor]

BTTT
Thanks

Grassley and Hatch don't inspire total confidence either, could be political motivation on this vote.

Could be? Could be?! Did I say that?!

[Marathoner]

God help us in California; don't think there will ever be another Republican senator (certainly not a conservative one).

Ditto from Illinois, I can assure you.

[La Enchiladita]

Thank you for the visual interlude and, of course, the great music!
