Dearest FReeper-Patriots-FRiends,
Hey Y'all
The GOP House must KILL the Senates Immigration BILL, and the time for us to act is now. Today, tomorrow, this coming week!
Like Rush said on Wednesday, Free Republic was the Tea Party before there was a Tea Party.
The House is the last stop between Amnesty and saving our Republic.
We have been told that the House Leadership will meet on or about July 10, 2013 to decide on how theyre going to deal with the Senates Immigration Reform Bill.
They are caught between big money interests and the will of the people, meaning us, those they represent.
We know the House must be our firewall to prevent this odious bill from going to reconciliation.
There are two ways it can be passed. First they can bring up and debate the Senate bill, then vote on it. Thats the least likely way it will happen, they wont dare do this.
The other way it can happen is to fashion a bill that sounds goods, paying homage to even stricter border security, or some such bilge that will never be enacted.
If they do that, or anything at all with the illegal immigration issue this term, it will go to conference and be reconciled with the Senate bill.
Some of you have already had some luck with your representatives who are sympathetic to our conservative cause. A lot of people are calling and writing, asking their congressman to tell the House leadership to just say no to any debate and to any bill in any form.
There are strong signs the calls are beginning to have a positive effect. Its vitally important now, for all of us to burn up the phone lines, burn up the fax lines, and e-mail our representatives and the House leadership to KILL the Senates BILL.
All of us must do our part and also ask our families and friends to the very same, even if our US Representatives are not on our side and likewise regarding the US Reps of our families and friends.
Calls and e-mails count!
A couple of points you might want to get across:
1. Remind them of how the Senate and the House were lost to democrat leadership after the last attempted betrayal on illegal immigration.
2. Remind them (nicely and passionately) that we are perfectly capable of replacing them once again should they repeat their mistake.
3. Remind them that this bill is bad for America, bad for the economy, and bad for the workers of this country.
4. Remind them we are a party of ideas, not pandering. The idea that we will be liked more for passing the Senate bill or any kind of amnesty bill is untrue; actually its media and democrat driven.
5. Ask them not to bring up the matter for debate, not to bring ANY bill that could go to conference with the Senate. No bill, no conference, just say no! This is not something the American people want.
Speaker Boehner is playing games with his link. Try as I have, I can't live link his e-mail form like I did last week. Here it is for you all to cut and paste into your browsers:

Office of the Speaker H-232 The Capitol Washington, DC 20515
Thanks so much, everyone!
God bless and keep you all.
Lets get this done right away!
Thank YOU, blueyon!!!
” I actually think the House is headed towards the right decision on this one! (miracles never cease?)”
It is not a miracle. It is the effort of the grass roots, who are calling, and telling these politicians what they NEED to hear. We are telling them that will vote them out of office if they pass amnesty, pure and simple!
They all must be tinkering with their e-mail. I can’t get an e-mail to Shelley Capito either. Will call tomorrow.
