NOW IS THE TIME TO CALL SPEAKER HASTERET's OFFICE and tell him to APPOINT CONFEREE's NOW !!!

Tom DeLay said that maybe no conferees should be sent, period.

That would be a HUGE mistake IMHO..... I believe the American People.. BOTH DEM's and REP's will stand up for the HOUSE version of the bill the ONLY thing that is stopping this from going forward is the APPOINTMENT of Conferees.... we have been waiting since MAY !!

Can we just give Tancredo all of the house conferee seats?

It might be a good idea to do it now rather than wait for the House to soften it's position. I believe everyone should know by now, what the people want.

I called Tancredo's office too... I was told that it is all in the Speaker's hands now... nothing ANY of us can do.... so I say we put the Pressure on Speaker Hastert NOW !

I would rather let the Senate bill completely die (i.e. send no House conferees) rather than take the chance on ANY of the Senate's amnesty provisions (including employer amnesty) becoming part of a comprimise.

But if a compromise bill is in our future, then if we let the Hastert hearings play out first, it will highlight the amnesty provisions in the Senate bill and make them less likely to be part of any final bill.

"what say YOU?"


I just called Hastert's office and told the aide not to send anyone to Conference. If the House no-shows the bill dies.

Why?

There have been adequate Border Enforcement Laws in place for 20 years, there has been no attempt to enforce any of them. Why do we need more laws that will be ignored.

Let's face the facts, we are being hoodwinked again!

There have been hints that Hastert will stack the conference in favor of amnesty. Such a betrayal will not go down well.

How about as part of the "fine" any illegal alien has to forfeit all social security benefits paid in.
