Thanks Mo1!

[Mo1]

yes it does

I just called this number 202-224-4124 which is Jeff Sessions office. No one nswered so I let a message about wanting to speak to Stephen Boyd regarding the loopholes in the immigration bill. I then added a few questions I had in mind such as will the vote be recorded, a voice vote or in the middle of the night vote?

I have had very good experiences talking to the local staff of my Senators in Wisconsin and have put up a web page that lists Senate and Congressional staff contact information for most of the country:

stoptheamnesty.com

Instead of just CALL YOUR SENATOR you can ask for specific Congressional staff members who’s job it is to handle constituent contacts. You will reach intelligent young staff members who will share most of your common sense concerns about unrestricted immigration, amnesty for illegals.

PM me if your state isn’t up.

Let’s stay busy.

Thanks for posting this!

God bless Jeff Sessions.

Thanks - this is the best summary I have seen so far, but I have something to add, courtesy of Jim Inhofe. The English Language test that this bill provides is a complete farce. According to Inhofe, all that is required is that the person write a sentence OF HIS OWN CHOICE in English, in three attempts or less.

Just another example of the sham provisions of this bill. All that really matters is the near instant legalization of the illegal aliens. US citizens are penalized as well as legal immigrants and those who have applied for legal immigration.

Easy there boy, I believe Jeff Sessions to be man of honor, and if he says those are the loopholes, I will take them at face value. I was not being sarcastic when I said "How nice Jeff Sessions did his homework on this bill, I am sure that what he says is accurate".

I know a drive by comment from a bushbot when I see one. At least have the guts to put a sarcasm tag on your post.

[Guenevere]

Well, she could be an ex-bushbot....:^

There's a whole bunch of us X's at FR now!

[AmericanMade1776]

Tadlos, have you ever personally met Jeff Session? I have. I admit.. I unashame to say I support President George W. Bush, and I remain the same on that. Jeff Sessions is an honorable man too.

I don't hang out with Whole bunches, it sounds like a sheeple culture. I love President George W. Bush and thank God everyday for his leadership and guidance in America. The journey hasn't been smooth for President Bush and he has handled it better than any other person could of.

[nomorelurker]

Kinda what I thought on that loophole. Somehow doing that to those who tried to get in legal just seems immoral.

[Guenevere]

Actually, I was trying to take up for you....

..but it appears you don't need my help.

There are scores of us who are not of the sheep culture, but who once respected, esteemed and trusted George W.Bush.

But the events of the past few weeks, especially...(for some, it was earlier than that)...

..have opened our eyes to a sense of betrayal unlike any other over this illegal immigration bill...AMNESTY...and maybe to a lesser degree...his complete about turn on 'global warming'....

[AmericanMade1776]

a difference of opinion is not a betrayal

[Guenevere]

A bit more than a difference of opinion.

G'night

I called all my congress critters on my way to work and gave 'em what for on this illegal immigrant amnesty. Being that my Dad came here legally from Peru and he served during WW2 as part of the deal and several other of my relations did the same during Korea and Viet Nam, I'm especially P.O.'d by this Bill. It's like they are using My Dad's grave to relieve themselves.

I have an effective idea on how to take care of this problem that I'd like to give to Fred Thompson. Does he have a web site where us little people can contact him

[TADSLOS]

Tadlos, have you ever personally met Jeff Session? I have. I admit..

Why is meeting Jeff Sessions a qualifying discriminator for anything? Hell, I've met George Bush, does that mean that I should agree with everything he stands for? Go name drop and shill for Bush somewhere else.

For once a Republican Senator is showing leadership and guts against this “immigration scam!”.
