Tell Your Senators to Vote Against the Immigration Bill Now
Time’s Running Out; We only have until Monday afternoon.
by James Buchanan
The first vote on the Immigration Bill will take place Monday evening, May 31st. The first vote may be the only opportunity to stop this bill because this vote will decide whether or not a filibuster will be allowed. This is an extreme threat to America’s future. Fortunately, we have the Internet so hopefully we can derail this express train of treason. Every Patriotic American needs to tell his Senators to vote against the Immigration Bill (to vote “no on cloture” on May 21st).
One source reports “No committee hearings are to be held on what may well be the most important legislation of the decade. As Senator Chuck Grassley [R-IA] correctly pointed out: ‘It’s disappointing and even ironic how the deal announced today skirts the democratic processes of Congress. It was cut by a group of senators operating outside the committees of jurisdiction and without public hearings on key components.’ [A ‘Troubled’ Immigration Reform Proposal | President Bush and the Democrats reach a compromise on immigration reform, by Lorraine Woellert and Eamon Javers, BusinessWeek, May 18, 2007] As of early Saturday morning, May 19, the public has not even been shown the text of the bill. The ultimately failed amnesty legislation the Senate passed last year was 118,277 words long. This may well be more complicated. A photo of the first draft shows it to be almost twice as thick as a Bible. So reading the new bill carefully will likely take at least 10 uninterrupted hours, and quite possibly twice that, a span of time that few Senators have readily available. To truly understand how the legislation would work and what its long term implications are would take weeks of questioning and debate. Nonetheless, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) wants to have the entire bill passed by Memorial Day, a week from now. Even more appallingly, Reid wants to hold the crucial ‘cloture’ vote to shut off the possibility of a filibuster, the best chance to derail it, on Monday, May 21!”
