YES! YOUR CALLS HAVE WORKED....THE IMMIGRATION BILL IS ALL BUT DEAD!
According to Fox News, the "Bipartisan Immigration Reform Bill" is now dead!
I, for one believe that this bill was dead upon arrival, however, after a couple of weeks of wrangling, it has finally died. The American public is not going to stand for politicians in Washington trying to force down our throats a piece of legislation that was not only full of holes but one that was never going to actually solve our illegal immigration problems. Is there even one of you who actually believed that the Federal Government was going to even do half of what this bill promised? They passed a very strong border enforcement bill in October of last year and even funded the bill whereby we were supposed to have an almost 800 mile fence built. They have built 2 miles so far!
President Bush: I have the utmost respect for you, however, you are so out of touch with the American Public on this issue. Do your job please! Build the fence. Enforce the current laws. At least deport the illegals that are criminals! Make the employers who hire these people illegally pay fines and or go to jail. They will stop hiring them! These folks will go home. STOP TRYING TO MAKE US BELIEVE THAT OUR ECONOMY CAN'T WORK WITHOUT THEM! WE ARE A COUNTRY OF HARD WORKING PEOPLE. THESE EMPLOYERS ARE HIRING THESE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE THEY MAKE MORE MONEY! I DON'T BELIEVE FOR ONE MINUTE THAT THE ECONOMY WOULD NOT RECOVER EVEN IF THERE WERE A BACKLASH IN THE BEGINNING. THERE ARE PEOPLE HERE TO DO THE JOBS. COMPANIES ARE SENDING THE JOBS OVERSEAS BECAUSE THEY PAY LOWER WAGES AND AGAIN....MAKE MORE MONEY. WE WANT THEM TO MAKE MONEY, BUT WE WANT THE LAWS FOLLOWED AS WRITTEN. NO MORE PULLING THE WOOL OVER OUR EYES!
Most of us are very upset about the current "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" bill that is about to pass the senate. If you are in the majority, like the rest of us, DO YOUR PART! CALL OR WRITE YOUR SENATOR AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE AND LET THEM KNOW THE DEGREE TO WHICH YOU OPPOSE THIS BILL. I've already done so. If your representative gets bombarded with calls, you will make a difference. PICK UP THE PHONE AND LET THEM HEAR YOUR VOICE! Here is a link to contact your Senator:

Here's one for your congressman in the House of Representatives:

Don't let us down! Let them know that you want Border Security First, and deal with the illegals later. Don't let them fool you. They become illegal once the bill is passed by both houses of congress and the president signs it.
