Spirits among conservative critics of the immigration bill have brightened today following several Senate votes that indicate at least 40 senators could block the bill during a cloture vote tomorrow.

 

"Well-placed sources tell me that activists are focusing their attention on the following list of senators:"

Sam Brownback (R.-Kan.), -
Richard Burr (R.-N.C.),
Saxby Chambliss (R.-Ga.),
Larry Craig (R.-Idaho),
Pete Domenici (R.- N.M.),
Byron Dorgan (D.-N.D.),
John Ensign (R.-Nev.),
Mike Enzi (R.-Wyo.),
Judd Gregg (R.-N.H.),
Johnny Isakson (R.-Ga.),
Jon Kyl (R.-Ariz.),
Mary Landrieu (D.-La.),
Trent Lott (R.-Miss.),
Mitch McConnell (R.-Ky.),
Claire McCaskill (D.-Mo.),
Ben Nelson (D.-Neb.),
Mark Pryor (D.-Ark.),
Debbie Stabenow (D.-Mich.),
John Sununu (R.- N.H.),
Jon Tester (D.-Mont.),
George Voinovich (R.-Ohio),
Jim Webb (D.-Va.),
John Warner (R.-Va.).

 

These individuals are apparently still non-committal about how they will vote on the final bill or could be swayed depending on votes either for or against amendments to the bill.

Sadly, we haven’t seen “R - CA” in years.

How did my Senators from Tennessee vote on the Coburn Amendment?

just sent to Voinovich (rino) and Brown (lib demo) from Ohio:

Dear Senator ______,

My name is *****I am ****pastor, and a retired US Army Chaplain.

I am writing against the current McCain/Kennedy Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill.

This bill would be a terrible mistake for Ohio for a variety of reasons that have to do with homeland security, but another major reason it should be defeated is that it both takes jobs from legal Americans, and it increases competition for jobs, lowering overall wages.

Any time a number of prospective workers willing to work at extremely low wages is added to the job market, that reduces the amount that any company has to pay anyone it hires.

Here in Adams County, and in much of southern Ohio, the job market has been abysmal. Some of the highest unemployment in the state is always recorded in south Ohio.

A vote for the McCain/Kennedy bill is a vote against the workers of Ohio having jobs with living wages. A vote for McCain/Kennedy is a vote for an illegal alien to take aan Ohio worker’s job.

I trust you will vote against this illegal alien amnesty bill.

Sincerely,
