Ask Your Representative to Oppose New Foreign Worker Legislation!!


You can find this fax by proceeding to

http://www.numbersusa.com/faxes?ID=14037





SPECIAL NOTE: TONIGHT, THE HOUSE WILL START VOTING ON AMENDMENTS TO THE DHS APPROPRIATIONS BILL. PLEASE CHECK NUMBERSUSA'S WEBSITE FOR UPDATES AND ACTIONS YOU CAN TAKE TO HELP THESE AMENDMENTS PASS.







Reps. Mike Grimm, Loretta Sanchez, Kevin Yoder, Robert Dold, Devin Nunes, Russ Carnahan, and Jared Polis have introduced H.R. 5893, the Startup Act 2.0. This bill would create 50,000 new STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) work visas for foreign students who graduate from a U.S. college with a master's degree or a Ph.D each year. The foreign students automatically earn 1-year work visa upon graduation and earn an additional 4-years if they are "actively engaged" at the end of the first year. At the end of the 5 year period, the foreign workers will be able for legal permanent worker status. https://www.numbersusa.com/content/news/june-6-2012/2013-homeland-security-spending-bill-house-floor.html







The bill also creates a new visa program for 75,000 new immigrant "entrepreneurs" -- individuals who already hold an H-1B visa or a STEM degree would be allowed 4 years to remain in the U.S. and operate a new business. During the first year, the immigrant entrepreneur must start a business that employs at least 2 full-time U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents and invest or raise at least $100,000 of capital. In years 2-4, the business must employ at least 5 Americans or legal permanent residents.







These new visa programs would increase foreign worker imports by 125,000 each year when more than 20 million Americans can't find a full-time job and when millions of Americans are about to graduate from college.







Please send your U.S. Representative a fax and ask him/her to oppose this legislation.

Hugh Hewitt: Pelosi and Obama's agenda down in flames

By: Hugh Hewitt

Examiner Columnist

 It takes a powerful collective repugnance to propel a national political rebuke.



House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and President Obama have accomplished an extraordinary thing. Tomorrow they will enter the history books as the most spectacularly failed partnership in modern American political history.



Never in the last 100 years have two American politicians squandered so much political capital and achieved so complete a rejection as this duo. (I omit intentionally the hapless Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who is very much the Lepidus in this triumvirate.)



The Obama-Pelosi record contains hugely significant actions, but negative ones. They are to the Democrats of this century what Hoover was to the Republicans of the last: a complete platform for the other party in proper names.



How far in the future will it be when a Republican convention does not prominently feature warnings to the public of a return of the era of Obama-Pelosi?



The myth about "off-year" elections is already being spun out by the left as a threadbare cover for their leaders' collective collapse. These observations overlook 1934, 1954, 1962 and 2002 as examples of elections following a new president's entry into office when he managed not to get clobbered at the polls.



FDR saw the Democrats add nine seats in the House of Representatives in 1934. Dwight Eisenhower's GOP lost 18 House seats and JFK's Democrats lost four in '54 and '62 respectively. George W Bush's Republicans actually added eight House members in 2002.



Two other parallels are exact: Presidents Reagan in '82 and Clinton in '94 were also both new presidents taking office after an administration of the opposite party and who had governed for 22 months when the public got to deliver a verdict. Reagan watched the GOP lose 27 seats to the Democrats, and Clinton witnessed the rise of Newt Gingrich as the GOP added 54 seats.



Until Nov. 2, 2010, Clinton was the gold standard for botched opening presidential acts. How the Man from Hope must be laughing at the Man of Hope and Change. Obama won't erase Clinton's stain of impeachment, but he will replace 42 with 44 in the annals of political failure in America.



Pelosi is in a class by herself. Her particular style of leadership -- arrogant, humorless, imperious and dense -- will guide by negative example many generations of future legislative leaders.



"Don't go Pelosi on us," consultants and colleagues will chide their leaders. And what a caution that will be: Do you want history to know you as a wholly, completely, irrefutably rejected failure?



But for the condescension these two have displayed toward their fellow citizens and citizen-legislators, their fall might even elicit some sympathy. But "I won, you lost" and "we'll have to pass the bill to find out what is in it" are not predicates on which much empathy can be built.



Obama and Pelosi were handed unique majorities and a chance to establish a very long-lasting domination of American politics had they only governed from the center-left and not chosen the agenda of the hard left. (The noise from the bloggers and Jon Stewart may be a balm to lefties that Pelosi and Obama failed for want of going far enough left, but Republicans can only pray that Democrats run on "the stimulus was too small and Obamacare insufficiently radical" in 2012 and beyond.)



The epic loss on Tuesday will launch a thousand op-eds and who knows how many dissertations. But the explanation is very simple.



Never have two modern American leaders been so utterly bereft of graciousness. Americans do not particularly value humility in their politicians, but arrogance and disdain are poison to the public.



The president gets a second chance. Pelosi does not. And that is at least some consolation for Democrats on Tuesday.

A HOUSE CLEANING FOR NEW YORK
 
By Dick Morris And Eileen McGann




Published in the New York Post on October 21, 2010



New York state’s congressional dele gation could see huge changes in the midterm elections. A virtual purge of Democrats is quite possible, with as many as 11 seats changing hands.



New York is traditionally a late-deciding state because of the high cost of media here and the late primaries, so these races are coming into focus only now. The key question: Will the absurd state of the governor’s race depress the “change” vote — or will New Yorkers opt to send a message further down the ticket?





Here are the 11 possible GOP pickups in the House:



Hall v. Hayworth: In the 19th Congressional District (Westchester, Putnam, Orange), Republican Nan Hayworth, an ophthalmologist, is in a statistical tie with Rep. John Hall in the latest Monmouth University poll. Hall, a movement radical/singer (Orleans) who won in reaction to the Iraq war in 2006, has toed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s line ever since.



Bishop v. Altschuler: In the 1st CD (Eastern Suffolk), Rep. Tim Bishop is behind Republican Randy Altschuler 42-40 in the latest McLaughlin poll. A defeat of Bishop, a long-term incumbent, would send shock waves through the state’s delegation



McCarthy v. Becker: In the 17th (Nassau/Suffolk), Republican Fran Becker trails Carolyn McCarthy by just a point (46-45) in McLaughlin’s most recent poll. McCarthy, elected in the ’90s on an anti-gun platform in the wake of her husband’s murder on the LIRR, is among the most reliable supporters of taxes and spending — and she’s tainted by donations from lobbyists recently indicted in the PMA “pay to play” earmarking scandal.



Israel v. Gomez: In the 2nd CD (Suffolk), Republican John Gomez is waging an aggressive campaign against Rep. Steve Israel. While no polling is available, the strong showings of Altschuler and Becker in the nearby districts raise the odds that Israel, one of the most liberal House members, can be beaten.



McMahon v. Grimm: Rep. Mike McMahon, the liberal Democratic incumbent in the 13th District (Staten Island and Brooklyn), shot himself in the foot when his campaign released a list of “Jewish” donors who’d given to Republican Mike Grimm’s campaign. Now Grimm has a good shot at McMahon in this traditionally GOP seat.



Arcuri v. Hanna: Republican Richard Hanna leads Democratic Rep. Mike Arcuri by 46-43 in the latest McLaughlin poll. The 24th district spans much of central New York, including Geneva, Cortland, Oneonta, Rome and Utica. Arcuri cooked his own goose by backing the Pelosi agenda 91 percent of the time.



Hinchey v. Phillips: Longtime Democratic incumbent Rep. Maurice Hinchey finds himself in deep trouble after a video surfaced of him putting his hands around the neck of Kingston Daily Freeman reporter William Kimble during a heated confrontation last week before a League of Women’s Voters debate in Saugerties. The 22nd district includes Binghamton, Kingston and Ithaca.



Maffei v. Buerkle: In the 25th CD (Syracuse), Democratic Rep. Dan Maffei is locked in a 40-40 tie with Ann Marie Buerkle, according to the McLaughlin poll. Maffei, long a fixture in local politics, alienated his district by his ardent support for ObamaCare.



Murphy v. Gibson: Democratic Rep. Scott Murphy hopes to win re-election by attacking his Republican challenger Chris Gibson for wanting to repeal ObamaCare. He’d better try something else. A recent poll by the National Republican Congressional Committee has him two points behind Gibson. The 20th district runs north from Hudson, skirts Albany and continues up to Glens Falls.



Zeller v. Reed: Democrats have pretty much conceded the 29th district (the Southern Tier) to Republican Tom Reed, former mayor of Corning, who has a 14-point lead over Democrat Matt Zeller in the Siena College poll. The race is to fill the seat of Democrat Eric J. Massa, who resigned from Congress last year.



Owens v. Doheny: Since Democrat Bill Owens narrowly defeated an independent candidate in a special election last year in the 23rd CD, he has been something of an endangered species. Now Republican Matt Doheny is mounting a strong challenge in the district, which includes Plattsburgh and much of the northeastern part of the state.



New Yorkers looking for change can make a huge difference this year — if they turn out to vote.

These pro-amnesty incumbents in trouble‏

A timely post from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about vulnerable Amnesty Candidates!! This follows this post about the Republicans running for Senate in 2010. This follows  this post about the Falcon Lake murder and this post  which shows that there are 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso.

These pro-amnesty incumbents in trouble‏

If you want to make a last-minute campaign donation where it can make a difference for better immigration policies . . .




HERE ARE THE HIGH-IMMIGRATION INCUMBENTS

WHO ARE IN TROUBLE AND COULD LOSE

-- and who have anti-amnesty challengers

who probably could use a contribution



The pro-amnesty vs. anti-amnesty balance of power could shift a lot in the next Congress.



A number of you have been asking where final campaign contributions might be the most helpful in pushing out high-immigration congressional incumbents in favor of low-immigration challengers.



I asked my staff to prepare the list below without regard to Party affiliations. These are the races where contributions might be helpful (BUT DON'T GIVE TO THE INCUMBENT WHOSE NAME IS LISTED.)



Every incumbent in this email meets the following criteria:



1. Incumbent has failed to use his/her time in Congress to protect unemployed Americans from unfair competition with foreign workers (legal and illegal).



2. Incumbent is considered by the pundits to be in danger of losing his/her seat (but still close enough to keep it).



3. Incumbent has a challenger who is promising to work for less immigration. (A few of these challengers are not promising much at this point. I leave it to you whether you think they are worth supporting.



In other words, the low-immigration challenger is given a good chance to replace the high-immigration incumbent but probably needs extra money to do the job.



I am not endorsing any of the challengers, because we don't endorse anybody. But our research definitely finds that the incumbents listed on this page are the immigration bad guys and their challengers promise to be immigration good guys.



There are many more high-immigration, pro-amnesty incumbents who are in election trouble, but their challengers have not promised to fight open-borders efforts.

When you click on any of the incumbents listed below, you will see our grid that compares the immigration promises of the incumbent and of the challenger.





You can click on the name of the challenger just underneath the photo to find the campaign web page and a way to donate.





If you live in any of these jurisdictions, you may want to go to the webpage and find out how you can help with the last days of campaigning.

Take a look at these names. They are all Members of Congress who failed in the last two years to feel any urgency about protecting unemployed Americans from unfair foreign labor competition.
