First there was the revolution. More than 200 years later, tea parties, were followed by the Tea Party Express. So much for the ground traffic, now it is time for the air war with a focus on illegal immigration.

Pro American take back the country rallies continue this week in Washington, D.C. as the Federation for American Immigration Reform hold its annual Hold Their Feet to the Fire radio rally Sept. 15 and 16.

Forty-seven hosts, led by Roger Hedgecock of Radio America Networks and Lou Dobbs of United Stations Radio Network, will broadcast live from Capitol Hill. They will discuss several issues, including the cost and impact of continued illegal immigration on jobs, wages, education, the environment and national security, the loopholes within America’s Affordable Health Care Act of 2009 allowing illegal aliens access to tax-payer funded benefits, and the Obama Administration’s plans for amnesty.

As in previous years, talk hosts will interview members of Congress, immigration reform experts, high profile media personalities and activists. The event features a We the People reception honoring those who have made significant contributions towards true immigration reform.

“While expanding benefits for illegal aliens, this administration is simultaneously dismantling immigration enforcement and systematically laying the groundwork for yet another massive amnesty bill,” said Bob Dane, event manager of Hold Their Feet to the Fire 2009. “Powerful special interests are lobbying to stop immigration enforcement, pass mass amnesty legislation, and import more foreign guest workers with no regard to the plight of the American worker or our national security.”[snip]
