Fax Congress its immigration grades‏

A timely post from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about your current Senators and Representatives. This follows this post about the 2010 elections and this post about the MURDER of ROBERT KRENTZ, who the protestors and boycotters won't give a solution for, but will call Americans racist for trying to prevent another MURDER, and this post which shows that there are 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso.

Fax Congress its immigration grades‏
IT'S TIME TO GIVE YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS
THEIR IMMIGRATION REPORT CARDS
FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS OF ACTIONS

Fax the Report Cards free and give their staffers reason to be proud or to want to take their boss to the woodshed.

Each Report Card fax has a space for you to send a short message on what you think about the grades.

ACTION: Go to your customized Action Buffet now and start faxing.

As you know, NumbersUSA has the nation's most complete record of every immigration action ever taken by every single Member of Congress. Our computers calculate an Immigration-Reduction grade for a Member's CAREER, and also for the RECENT actions (2007-10), and for THIS CONGRESS.

What you are going to find on your Action Board are faxes that contain the graphic of your Congress Member's grades for THIS CONGRESS.

If you want to review all your Member's grades and the actions that led to those grades, look at the upper right corner of your Action Board. You will see photos of your 3 Members. Above each photo, is that Member's overall grade. Just click on the grade to see the entire Report Card. You can also read more about what each category grade means.

WHAT TO WRITE

You have room for only a short note, so make it about something very specific that is on the Report Card.
If your Member got a D+ all the way down through an F-minus, you may want to express outrage that he/she continued to support the massive taking of U.S. jobs by foreign workers while Americans suffer a jobs depression.

Members with these low grades deserve all the scorn you may want to heap on them.


If your Member got a C-minus up through a B grade, your note more likely will express disappointment that when presented with such a huge problem of foreign workers displacing U.S. workers and driving down wages, these Members reacted with relative indifference. Their record isn't terrible but it doesn't reflect any sign of urgency about helping unemployed Americans get back to work.

Most of the people with these grades declined to take really bad actions but they also declined to do anything helpful unless forced by a roll-call vote.

Don't hesitate to point out where the Member got a bad grade in an individual category or where he/she simply "failed to act."


If your Member got a B+ or an A-minus, you will want to give him/her hearty congratulations and thanks. Nonetheless, you will probably see that nearly all of these got a "failed to act" instead of a good grade in the category of reducing importation of unnecessary foreign workers. Praise these Members but ask them to improve their grade by working to reduce legal immigration or to call a timeout on it until the unemployment crisis is over.


For Members with an A or A+,you may simply want to thank them profusely. Still, you may see some place where they "failed to act" and want to point that out.
For those of you with Members with B+ up through an A+, you may not see the Report Card fax action note on your Action Board when you first go to it. That is because we are making those available to only a portion of their constituents each day over the next couple of weeks. So, check your Action Board early each day and keep coming back until your turn comes.

ABOUT THE 'CHALLENGE STATUS QUO' GRADE

In every other category, a person doesn't get graded down for doing nothing. Instead, the words "failed to act" show up.

But it is not a neutral thing to fail to challenge the status quo, to do nothing in the face of our government continuing to import 75,000 new permanent working age immigrants each month and allowing 7-8 million illegal aliens to keep their jobs.

So, the STATUS QUO grade is based on whether the Member just took a pass on some of the pressing issues of immigration.

Click on the grade to see the scoresheet. At the bottom of it, you will see how the CHALLENGE STATUS QUO grade was calculated.

Friends, have some fun with these Report Cards. Imagine that you are the mom or dad who was mailed the grades and you are waiting at the door when your Congress Member comes home from "college" on summer break. What would you say about these grades?
