Reminder: Immigration Reform passed the Senate in 2006 and was halted in the House (vote tally)

Posted on 06/24/2013 7:08:47 AM PDT by cotton1706

The difference this time, it's not an election year and the House has a weaker Speaker who may not try to stop it.

Pressure needs to be brought to bear on every member of the House of Representatives against Immigration Reform.

The democrats will for sure attempt a discharge petition to bring the senate bill up for a vote in the House.

We don't have anything on our side but the people, so their voices must be heard!

Stop Amnesty.

Tell congressmen we don’t want ANY bill passed, no matter what they promise. This bill is Amnesty for 30 million illegals, and a 1000 page bill that brings in 80 million 3rd world immigrants. The bill will destroy the U.S. and will turn the USA into a socialist state as is the democrats/Obama’s plan.

To locate your Member on-line:

Call all remaining GOP members of the US Congress to back the efforts of those fighting back.

Call and say “I am calling to ask Congress member ___________ to support Michele Bachman, Steve King, and Louie Gohmert’s effort to demand that Speaker John Boehner stop trying to help Obama and the Democrats pass amnesty for illegal aliens. Please sign their petition to require the Speaker to honor the ‘Hastert Rule’! If the Senate passes an amnesty for illegal aliens, it will be important that the House refuses to pass any immigration legislation in 2013! Stop the amnesty legislation!”

This House is run by the weakest of WEAK. Don't count on it any more than you should have counted on SCOTUS ruling unconstitutional the McCain-Feingold Act or Obamacare.

“Don’t count on it any more than you should have counted on SCOTUS ruling unconstitutional the McCain-Feingold Act or Obamacare.”

Well, the SCOTUS pretty much gutted McCain-Feingold with the Citizens United decision (the diffence between O’Connor in 2003 and Alito in 2012). Obamacare may be gutted as well later on.

Huh? On what grounds? It has been declared Obamacare is 'Law of the Land' by the Weeper that is supposed to be Representing WE THE PEOPLE.

Obamacare is already heading back to the Court.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/11/26/SCOUS-Reinstates-Obamacare-Case

So we could have a similar situation, where the Court issues one ruling affirming the act of Congress (i.e. making it law) but gutting certain provisions of it.
