Action Alert

AgJOBS Expected on the Senate Floor THIS WEEK!
Call Your Senators Now!

Just a few days ago, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) released a revised version of her AgJOBS legislation. Senate staffers are telling FAIR that they now expect Senator Feinstein and Senator Larry Craig (R-ID) to offer the new language as an amendment to the Farm Bill (H.R.2419) scheduled for the Senate floor THIS WEEK. This is not a surprise to those who have been watching the Senate closely. For over a week now, amnesty advocates have said they intended to bring AgJOBS—another piece of the failed Bush-Kennedy amnesty bill—to the floor. There was some discussion in Capitol Hill newspapers that the downfall of the DREAM Act would discourage Senators Feinstein and Craig from moving forward, but at this point, our sources say all systems are go.

Please call your Senators TODAY and urge them to oppose AgJOBS!

The new version sent out by Senator Feinstein makes only cosmetic changes to a bill that grants amnesty to at least 1.5 million illegal aliens plus their families. For example, the new language includes what is commonly called a "trigger" mechanism, which requires that certain border security measures be taken before the amnesty program goes into effect. However, the trigger only prohibits the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from issuing green cards before the security measures have been completed; it DOES NOT delay the issuance of "blue cards" that grant illegal aliens legal status. Not only do blue cards give illegal aliens legal status, they provide work authorization, permission to travel internationally, and treatment in general as a green card holder. Thus, even the revised version of AgJOBS allows illegal aliens to file an application, receive immediate protection from deportation, and then receive a blue card with all the bells and whistles before DHS is ever required to complete one border security provision.

Please call your Senators TODAY and urge them to oppose AgJOBS!

Please call your Senators TODAY and ALL THIS WEEK and urge them to oppose AgJOBS. Tell them that you oppose rewarding illegal activity and catering to special business interests that want to import cheap labor. Remind them that the 1986 amnesty bill had a special agricultural amnesty almost identical to AgJOBS. The 1986 amnesty didn't work, and in fact, only made the illegal immigration crisis in America worse. Tell them you object to them following the same old, failed strategy.

hutch;Everyone claims to want to "get tough on immigration" but no one ever does.

That's not true. There are many people who are Pro-Active in the roundup and deportation of the Illegal.

I wanted to expose the reason New York Politics was pushing giving Illegals Drivers Licenses.

My objective is, that New Yorkers get off their butts and act. With emails, calls, fax's, informing ICE of suspicious activities, etc. Taking pictures, reporting employers. ICE can step in, even in Sanctuary States.

Dean,
If you find more forum sites, let me know. I post on 2 others right now an am looking for others.
Copy that list of things Citizens can do to help enforce the law. and send it, post it, anywhere and everywhere you can.
Keep in touch.
We need all the people we can get to be active in the roundup and deportation of the Illegals as possible.

Debate and opinions are good. However, take action also!
What actions are you taking?

New York, it's past time to bombard your Governors Office with calls, emails an fax's demanding enforcement of Federal Law and voicing your opposition to the plan to grant driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.

"It was a moment that crystallized Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's struggles in Tuesday night’s debate. Questioned about a plan to grant driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, Mrs. Clinton at first seemed to defend it, then suggested she was against it, until finally, pressed for a direct answer, she accused the moderator, Tim Russert, of playing 'gotcha,'" the New York Times writes.

"Until Tuesday’s debate, Mrs. Clinton had not had to confront the immigration issue so starkly. Her adopted state of New York has a long history of dealing with immigration issues, and Mrs. Clinton has heavily courted the immigrant groups that are central to its population mix. Now she finds herself on different terrain, campaigning in important early primary states like Iowa and South Carolina where candidates are routinely pressed for their views on immigration from an electorate often agitated over illegal immigrants."

Comment; If Clinton can get Licenses for Illegals, that will get her more votes.

New York, it's past time to bombard your Governors Office with calls, emails an fax's demanding enforcement of Federal Law and voicing your opposition to the plan to grant driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.

Dean, I have a whole list of things that individuals can do that will help see the law is enforced.

Then, how would Bush be able to put into force Martial Law and anyone take it seriously?

What do you think UN Troops are for? They can be put into place and being foreigners, wouldn't think twice about mowing down an American.

I wish more folks read about the rape trees.

Dean,
Feeling frustrated?
You can make a difference. Here is how.
Carry a digital camera. If you see Mexicans hanging out on street corners waiting for someone to offer them work, take pictures.
Call, Report Suspicious Activity:
1-866-DHS-2-ICE
1-866-347-2423, and tell them you wish to send photos and the location of suspect illegals.
Stay safe and inconspicuous.

There are many Patriotic Citizens of all walks of life, nationalities, and beliefs supporting this.

I was raised in Southern Ms. I used to be racist and practiced hatred towards blacks. That was until, I took the effort to get to know the person. Haven't thought racist in many years now.

I also realized, racism is a fear and I choose not to fear.
Lack of activism is fear based also. I choose faith to guide me in my convictions. I have strong convictions in regards to this topic and it matters not what I am called or thought of.

Right On, Arizona!

Ms scttrbrain,
Sorry to hear your business is on a downturn.
If you practice faith, you might remember. When one door closes another will open. Possibly, an even better opportunity will open for you. I can only pay it does.

New Mexico, Texas, Minnesota, Arkansas, Louisiana.

We need your help. Oklahoma is leading the way. They need our help. For this plan to be maximized, it needs to snowball.

Surrounding States who have in effect a similar plan makes it more standardizes the program. It shows the Illegal and potential Employers of said Illegals there are severe consequences to be paid for Illegal actions.

Flood your Governors Office with Calls, Fax's and Emails. 5 minutes and you can make the difference.

Insist, they put into action a similar plan as Oklahoma. We want them to show us they represent the American, legal taxpayers.

We, the people have spoken! They need to hear our voices loud and clear!

That is why I sent a copy of this to the Govenors office. We need an Immigration law similar to that of Oklahoma.

Just with Oklahoma's passing and enforcing, my own business is gaining momentum. And I'm way over here in West Texas.

Washington Post
NEW YORK - In New York, state officials are about to offer driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and alreadyhave extended limited medical coverage to those battling cancer. InIllinois, the state legislature just passed a law forbidding businessesthere from using a federal database to check the legal status ofemployees.

Oklahoma, meanwhile, recently passed some of the toughest immigration laws in the nation, including one making it a felony to "transport" or "harbor" an illegal immigrant -- leading some to fear that people such as school bus drivers and church pastors maybe at risk of doing time. Tennessee's legislature this year revokedlaws granting illegal immigrants "driving certificates" and voted to allow law enforcement officers to effectively act as state immigration police.

As the Bush administration and Congress sitgridlocked on an immigration overhaul, states are jumping into thedebate as never before. In the process, they are creating a nationalpatchwork of incongruous immigration laws that some observers fear willmake it far more difficult to enact any comprehensive, federallymandated bill down the line.

A growing problem

Thevolume of state immigration bills has skyrocketed this year. No fewerthan 1,404 pieces of immigration-related legislation were introduced inlegislatures during the first half of 2007, with 182 bills becoming lawin 43 states. That is more than double the number of immigration-related state laws enacted during all of 2006, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

Some observers are alarmed by the trend, calling the wildly divergent laws further evidence of America's cultural divide and saying they could pose new hurdles in reaching a national consensus on immigration.Piecemeal policymaking is opening the door to a flurry of legal battles-- the Department of Homeland Security, for instance, is suing Illinois for banning businesses there from confirming an employee's legal status through the federal E-Verify database, which state officials have called flawed and unreliable.

States step in

Others argue that the inability to reach a national solution has left states no choice. Governors are grappling with cities and towns that, in the absence of a national or state policy, have taken it upon themselves to pass local immigration laws either protecting or cracking down on illegal immigrants. This has occasionally lead to radically different regulations within individual states.

Still others assert that the rush of state activism has created an unforeseen opportunity.By viewing states as laboratories and studying the successes and failures of their various policies, Americans may find useful information, even a road map, for developing a national strategy.

Perhaps the most compelling current example is Oklahoma, where a package of tough new laws will not only make it a crime to transport or harbor illegal immigrants, but will also strip such immigrants of any right to receive most health care, welfare, scholarships or other government assistance; penalize employers who hire illegal workers; and force businesses to verify the legal status of new hires.

That"comports with my philosophy that illegal aliens will not come to Oklahoma or any other state if there are no jobs waiting for them,"said Randy Terrill, a Republican state legislator and the author of the bill. "They will not stay here if they know they will get no taxpayer subsidy, and they will not stay here if they know if they ever come into contact with one of our fine law enforcement officers, they will stay in custody until they are physically deported."

Hispanic business groups, citing school enrollment losses and church parish figures, say the laws, which start going into effect later this year,have caused as many as 25,000 undocumented workers to flee the state in recent months. The loss is being decried by the Oklahoma State HomeBuilders Association.

"In major metro areas we are seeing people leave based on the perception that things are going to get bad for them and that this state doesn't want them here," said Mike Means,executive vice president of the association. "Now we're looking at a labor shortage. I've got builders who are being forced to slow down jobs because they don't have the crews. And it's not like these people are going back to Mexico. They're going to Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Arkansas, anywhere where the laws aren't against them."

Crisis in construction

Means said that while construction wages have not yet gone up in Oklahoma,they are likely to do so if the shortage worsens. Advocates of such laws say that is precisely how strict regulations on illegal immigration can help American workers -- by forcing wages higher. But construction industry leaders counter that a wage increase in Oklahoma,where builders are already paying $15 to $20 an hour for labor in a state with low unemployment, would lead to a net loss of jobs as some businesses are forced to close, particularly if other states allow less stringent hiring practices.

"This is what happens when you don't have a national policy," Means said. "If I'm an Oklahoma builder on the border with Texas, you're going to face unfair competition because they don't have the laws we do. This needs to be standardized."
