URGENT - SANCTUARY CITY BILL

An urgent post from http://www.ircot.com/ about immigration legislation in Texas. This follows this previous post  it. This follows this post  about Carlos Santana's hate speech against unemployed Americans.  This follows this post about congressional redistricting and this follows this post which shows that there are 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso, where President Barack Obama recently bashed immigration enforcement! On a related note, you can read about Miss Kentucky Latina here, an interesting article about Jessica Alba here or another article about Salma Hayek here. For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can read a very interesting book HERE!

URGENT - SANCTUARY CITY BILL

IRCOT ACTION ALERT













CALLS NEED TO BE MADE TO GOV., LT. GOV. & ENTIRE SENATE











WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY ARE CRITICAL!







HB 12 could be scheduled for Senate floor action. A Senate committee restored its House-passed anti-sanctuary city language;

HB 2734 was returned to the House for a vote on concurrence. Although the bill concerns pardons/paroles of illegal aliens, the Senate added language from SB 9 requiring participation in the Secure Communities program; and

SB 9, the mandatory Secure Communities bill, could be scheduled for House floor action. A House committee added language that prohibits employers from knowingly hiring illegal aliens and gives employers that use E-Verify an affirmative defense against sanctions.



We need to hedge our bets in order to get some enforcement legislation passed. That means it will be necessary to push a limited agenda - mandatory E-Verify and anti-sanctuary legislation -- in all three bills. Please follow the instructions below for contacting Gov. Perry, House and Senate leaders, and your Rep. and Senator.







Please call and email Gov. Perry with the message:







"Texans need your help in passing legislation that makes E-Verify mandatory for all employers and bans sanctuary cities. Please talk to legislative leaders about clearing both measures as part of one of the three remaining immigration bills - HB 12, HB 2734 or SB 9."







Gov. Perry's opinion hotline: (800) 252-9600







Action for State Legislative Leaders



Please call and Email House Speaker Joe Straus and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst (leader of the Texas Senate) with the message:







"Legislation must pass that makes E-Verify mandatory for all employers and bans sanctuary cities. Please help clear both measures as part of one of the three remaining immigration bills - HB 12, HB 2734 or SB 9."







Speaker Joe Straus - (512) 463-1000



Lt. Governor David Dewhurst - (512) 463-0001







Action for Your Rep. and Senator:
