Burr is going to try and pull a fast one, voting for cloture and against the bill so he can have it both ways. North Carolina depends HEAVILY on illegal farm workers to supplement the H-2A guest farm worker program. Don’t let him get away with it!

As for Webb...hell, he’s Born Idiot. Who knows what he’s going to do. You know Dingy Harry’s putting the squeeze on him, but on the other hand, he’s got this weird populist streak and *might* be susceptible to pressure. Maybe call him and tell him it’ll put all the Scotch-Irish out of a job.

When this was first up for a cloture vote, I got through to Senator Cornyn’s office without much trouble, but Senator Hutchison’s phone was jammed solid. I called Representative Sam Johnson’s office and his aide agreed to ask Sam to pass on my message to Senator Hutchison: A vote for cloture is a vote for amnesty, and won’t soon be forgotten.

[Cacique]

STOP AMNESTY NOW!! WE CAN DO IT!!

[Regulator]

Bond (R-Mo.), Bingaman (D-N.M.), Burr (R-N.C.), Boxer (D-Calif.), Cochran (R-Miss.), Conrad (D-N.D.), Ensign (R-Nev.), Levin (D-Mich.), Gregg (R-N.H.), Nelson (D-Neb.), Hatch (R-Utah), Webb (D-Va.)

All of the Senators have contact forms on their websites (except Bingaman).

Use the link from above (Post 3) to go to their forms, fill them out, and just say "Vote NO on cloture for the amnesty bill!".

They'll know exactly what you mean.

Took me all of about 15 minutes on Saturday to do that.

If only it was still took 2/3 of senators to invoke cloture and not 3/5.

[Plutarch]

I called Boxer’s office, again posing as a Dem constituent. The staffer stated that Boxer was undecided how she would vote on what I termed “closure”.

[Ancesthntr]

I just sent the following to all of the Republicans on the list:

“Vote NO on cloture!!

A vote for cloture is a vote for the immigration bill - and millions across the country including my family won’t forget it. Do the right thing and help kill this bill.

Secure the borders FIRST, then we can figure out what to do with millions of illegals.

I say this as the proud and grateful descendant of immigrants and as the husband of an immigrant - this bill is a travesty, it is a slap in the face of everyone who has EVER done things legally, and it will exacerbate an already terrible security problem. VOTE NO ON CLOTURE!!!”

Anyone who’d like to copy all or part of it is welcome to do so. Let’s kill this bill!

[caphillbabe]

Here is a list of the 12 “fence-sitter” Senate contacts for EVERYONE to email regarding immigration. Many offices are putting calls straight to voicemail and they can just trash faxes (and letters take weeks to get through due to security). Hit Hill staff where they are so codependent - their Blackberries! Send email directly to staff - not just the generic Senate office mailbox. Contact their Chief of Staff, Legislative Director, and Press Secretary. Make your voice heard!!

For the Democrats, I would strongly suggest taking a pro-union/anti-illegal alien stance (i.e. “they are taking our jobs”) rather than using the conservative national security angle.

Why are we all working so hard faxing, calling and emailing?

Our future "Amnesty Americans" teaching their children to honoring the gift of American Citizenship...




and what they did to show everyone their level of loyalty to the u.S...




Plus showing off their keen awareness of history...




my all time favorite, the goal of all good democrats American destroying communists.


but of course (snicker, snicker) you can't vote if your not a citizen! (snort)

Heritage: cost of amnesty bill research

This research is only about the FEDERAL programs.

The illegal aliens have already had a big impact on our local property taxes and state taxes...their millions in 'extended families' who will pour across the border will necessitate even MORE tax increases at the local and state level to provide essential services like schools, teachers, police, jails, guards, courts, fire EMT's etc. for them.
