Both my US senators are against the bill.

I called my US Rep. Nick Lampson,Democrat and gave my opinion, not sure what he'll do.

(Tom Delay's old seat. ..thanks Tom!)

Both my US senators are against the bill.

Unfortunately my senator is a traitor. And an idiot.

I also don’t like the 1965 ‘reform’ act.
But
to be practical, yes, the Mexicans ARE assimilating, and the pattern is just like others before them. THEY continue to speak Spanish; but their KIDS are learning English. Surveys show the kids prefer English-language stations (radio) to Spanish; and the kids act as interpreters for their parents (as happened with previous immigrant groups). Trade and technical schools are packed with hispanics who don’t want to flip burgers all their lives.
There will continue to be “little Mexico’s”, just as there have been “little Italys” and other ethnic neighborhoods before; but overall, yes, the NEXT GENERATION will be English-speaking and assimilated.
As for the Koreans, many are Christian, and have expressed the desire to help bring America back to its Christian roots. (They are about as un-PC as they come.) Vietnamese stoutly defend the freedoms fought for in the Vietnam war and have opposed having Jane Fonda on campuses.
Whether we should just grant everyone in the world the right to live in the USA is another question...

I called KBH's office and was told that "we" are going to listen to the debates before deciding how to vote. I e-mailed her with dire threats for political annihilation (I was very polite) if she failed to vote and work against the bill.

She's going to vote for it, I just know it.
