More phones today vs. DREAM amnesty‏

A timely post from www.numbersusa.com about opposing the DREAM ACT. This follows this post about what you can do to get better candidates this election cycle 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.

"Currently we are being beat by anti-immigrants 10 calls to 1. That means for every 1 call you make in support 10 people are calling against the DREAM Act."
-- Pro-Amnesty Group's Alert From Last Night

YOUR PHONING YESTERDAY WAS PHENOMENAL
-- MORE NEEDED TODAY TO STOP DREAM ACT AMNESTY

HERE ARE TOP SENATE TARGETS

Your phoning of Senate offices yesterday opposing a vote on amnesty as early as next week dismayed the national coalition of open-borders groups. They had begun their own phone campaign earlier in the day and had hoped to show Senators that the nation is clamoring for another amnesty.

Your reaction to my mid-afternoon alert was incredible.

But you can't stop now.

ACTION: Phone Senators. Tell them you are outraged that Majority Leader Reid has announced plans to force a vote on an illegal-alien amnesty as part of the Defense bill.

CAPITOL SWITCHBOARD: 202-224-3121

It is most important today that you call the offices of the Senators who are being targeted by the pro-amnesty groups. The following are the ones who are being clobbered with phone calls telling them to pass the DREAM Act amnesty. These are people who have NOT co-sponsored the amnesty but whose past records make the open-borders people think they are vulnerable to pro-amnesty pressure.

Especially if you have any connection to these states or Senators, give them a call today.

REPUBLICANS

Sen. McCain of Arizona
Sen. LeMeiux of Florida
Sen. Brownback of Kansas
Sen. Bunning of Kentucky
Sen. Collins of Maine
Sen. Snowe of Maine
Sen. Brown of Massachusetts
Sen. Gregg of New Hampshire
Sen. Voinovich of Ohio
Sen. Hutchison of Texas
Sen. Bennet of Utah
Sen. Hatch of Utah

DEMOCRATS

Sen. Pryor of Arkansas
Sen. Feinstein of California
Sen. Nelson of Florida
Sen. Hagan of North Carolina
Sen. Landrieu of Louisiana
Sen. Baucus of Montana
Sen. Tester of Montana
Sen. Conrad of North Dakota
Sen. Dorgan of North Dakota

I am so impressed with how quickly you moved yesterday.

You didn't hear from me until the middle of Tuesday afternoon. I wrote as soon as I heard that Senate Majority Leader Reid (D-Nev.) was probably going to force a vote on the DREAM Act Amnesty as an amendment to the Defense authorization bill.

But in those few hours left in the day, you all became a Phone Cyclone!

I can't independently confirm that you overwhelmed the pro-amnesty phone campaign by such a large amount as the pro-amnesty groups were claiming last night. It may be that the open-borders groups are exaggerating with their own members in order to spur them to far greater calling today.

One thing for sure, though, is that they won't let up this week or next. Every sign is that they believe they have no chance of winning an amnesty the next two years and that the next three weeks are their only chance.

To add this amnesty to the Defense bill, Sen. Reid will need 60 votes. He is claiming 40 Senators as co-sponsors. He has also variously indicated that perhaps 15 more Senators have said to him that they will vote for the amnesty.

Your job is to give those 15 Senators second thoughts and to make sure that the 5-Senator gap doesn't get closed.

ACTION: Go to your Action Board and make sure you have considered all the opportunities for action there.

When I first alerted you yesterday, I had no mainstream media confirmation of Sen. Reid's plans. But soon after, the story broke that he intends to move the amnesty for 2.1 million illegal aliens as an amendment to the Defense bill as early as next week.

Every pro-amnesty religious group, pro-amnesty leftist group and pro-amnesty conservative group in the country has mobilized their memberships in a last-ditch effort at some kind of amnesty.

KEY TALKING POINTS


No. 1: The rhetoric for DREAM is false and misleading. This amnesty is NOT limited to high school valedictorians and other high-achieving college students who were brought to the U.S. illegally when they were toddlers.

The amnesty includes illegal aliens up to age 35!

And their arrival can be as late as age 15!

The bill is a giant fraud loophole. People can claim the amnesty without providing proof of meeting criteria.

Even the supporters of the DREAM amnesty admit that around 2.1 million people could qualify.


No. 2: DREAM does nothing to stop the behavior that put teenagers into their situation. It leaves the jobs magnet in place.

This amnesty has no enforcement measures at all. It allows employers to continue to hire illegal aliens, enticing millions more parents to bring their children here illegally and stay long enough for them to become high school students and demand another amnesty in a few years.


No. 3: DREAM leaves intact the chain migration system that will allow these 2.1 million illegal aliens to eventually send for millions more relatives.

Rather quickly, the amnestied illegal aliens would be able to get green cards for their parents. And millions of additional relatives would be able to start planning their applications and getting in line. This starts with adult siblings and moves on to aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.

A large percentage of the illegal aliens in the U.S. today are extended family members of the illegal aliens who got amnesty in 1986 and also those in the six more-limited amnesties in the 1990s.
