At 5:30 p.m. EDT, the Senate will vote on the Corker-Hoeven Amnesty amendment to the Schumer-Rubio Amnesty bill, S.744. Passage of this amendment could greatly improve the chances of this terrible legislation passing later this week. We need your urgent phone calls to your two U.S. Senators telling them to vote NO on the Corker-Hoeven amendment. Call NOW toll-free at 888-995-8349.

The sponsors of the proposal, along with the Gang of 8, have tried to characterize this amendment as a "border surge" that includes an increase of 20,000 border patrol agents and requirements for DHS to spend billions of dollars of equipment and build 700 miles of fencing along the southern border.

But here's what the amendment really does:

Maintains the bill's basic framework of providing legal status and work permits to 11 million illegal aliens before any enforcement provisions kick in

Allows the Department of Homeland Security to ignore the border equipment build-up if it thinks it can secure the border in other ways

Allows the Department of Homeland Security to ignore the border fencing requirements

Creates a new permanent, rolling amnesty for future illegal aliens who have legally worked and lived in the United States for at least 10 years

Increases unemployment and depresses wages, according to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office

Doubles legal immigration numbers and grants 33 million new green cards in the first decade

The American people don't want this bill to pass! That's why the 1,200-page Corker-Hoeven Amnesty amendment was introduced late on Friday with a vote scheduled for later this afternoon.

Stop Amnesty.

Tell congressmen we don’t want ANY bill passed, no matter what they promise. This bill is Amnesty for 30 million illegals, and a 1000 page bill that brings in 80 million 3rd world immigrants. The bill will destroy the U.S. and will turn the USA into a socialist state as is the democrats/Obama’s plan.

To call your Member of Congress:
US Capitol Switchboard (202) 224-3121

To locate your Member on-line:
U.S. House of Representatives: www.house.gov
U.S. Senate: www.senate.gov

Call all remaining GOP members of the US Congress to back the efforts of those fighting back.

Call and say “I am calling to ask Congress member ___________ to support Michele Bachman, Steve King, and Louie Gohmert’s effort to demand that Speaker John Boehner stop trying to help Obama and the Democrats pass amnesty for illegal aliens. Please sign their petition to require the Speaker to honor the ‘Hastert Rule’! If the Senate passes an amnesty for illegal aliens, it will be important that the House refuses to pass any immigration legislation in 2013! Stop the amnesty legislation!”

Remember to call, call, call! Regardless of where you live, call all that you can and get others involved with the calls. Once you call, try to send in a written reinforcement of your message by website,twitter,Email, facebook, fax, or mail.

For some reason, Elizabeth Warren won’t take my calls. Neither will Ed Markey.

Yes, they are.

Call them and tell them that whoever votes for this amendment OR amnesty Bill is a Traitor to America and the American worker!

I understand that they count the phone calls! However, their usual procedure is to vote for a bill that we oppose!

I agree with you. We lived in CA when a Republican, Reagan, gave the first amnesty. We were flooded with illegals and now you cannot find a Republican in the state government! These Dems just want the votes and to give away all the ‘goodies’.
