Stunning facts about the proposed immigration bill

NRO ^ | 4-6-06 | Mark Levin

[JustPiper]

SENATOR SESSIONS ON SECURING AMERICA'S BORDERS ACT Mr. President, I thank Senator Leahy, ranking member on the Judiciary Committee. I have received just this afternoon in my office some disturbing news in the form of correspondence from the Congressional Budget Office. It suggests a number of areas where the amendment we are talking about here today, No. 3424, the immigration so-called compromise, violates our budget and the rules of the Senate. Let me read from the correspondence we have received. This is something, as you know, Mr. President, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, that we never discussed at all. It is not a matter we spent any time at all discussing as we moved forward with legislation which ultimately cleared that committee and came to the floor — legislation which I thought was not good legislation and which I opposed, and so did the Senator from Texas, who just relinquished the Chair. We didn't discuss the financial impact of the legislation before us. Stand Up For America !

"We have room for but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

My thought is to make this thread a daily storehouse for all the hard work that Freeper Patriot's do on this issue. This issue has built over several years here and is not going anywhere, so maybe it is time for us who are very passionate about this issue to have our own place. Please add whatever you want to make this thread grow.

• Whatever It Takes
  by J. D. Hayworth

  Whatever It Takes is a wide-ranging and highly entertaining read, in which Congressman J. D. Hayworth exposes the ongoing battle where terrorists seek ways to exploit our porous borders and attack our homeland as well as the hypocrisy, greed, and political correctness that could literally destroy our nation.

  From the Inside Flap:

  What should we do to solve America's border crisis?

• Immigration's Unarmed Invasion
  by Frosty Wooldridge

  "Few challenges throughout history will affect the course of human events like the topic of this book. Immigration, both legal and illegal, will determine if America is to survive as a viable, prosperous nation into the 21st Century or sink into the depths of poverty. Wooldridge offers a thorough examination of this topic with exhaustive research and critical thinking."

• Illegals:
  The Imminent Threat Posed by Our Unsecured U.S.-Mexico Border
  by Jon E. Dougherty

  In years past, immigration into the United States was treated as a privilege, not a right to be granted automatically just by being able to make it to America's shoreline or borders. Today, however, the entire process of immigration has been drastically politicized by both major parties in Washington, D.C.; one party sees votes - the other, cheap labor. This is investigative journalist Jon Dougherty's probing look into how this indiscriminate immigration is tearing at the fabric of our culture and society. Interviewing Border Patrol agents, local residents, citizen-enforcement groups and even the immigrants themselves, Dougherty examines the implicit dangers of our reckless attitude toward admittance, showing how all American citizens, native-born and otherwise, are consequently threatened by welfare fraud, drug lords, and terrorism. This is the untold, unnerving true story about the social and political turmoil on the U.S.-Mexico border.

  
  

• The Enemy Within:
  Saving America from the Liberal Assault on Our
  Schools, Faith, and Military
  by Michael Savage

  Popular radio host Michael Savage returns to print with another attack on the forces of liberalism that he believes are tearing America apart. Using the same brash, abrasive style in his writing that has become a trademark of his radio show, he writes that "the Left operates specifically to undermine God, country, family, and the military" and that liberalism is "either treason or insanity" or "a mental disorder." He also takes on illegal immigration.

  
  

• Fighting Immigration Anarchy:
  American Patriots Battle to Save the Nation
  by Daniel Sheehy

  Fighting Immigration Anarchy: American Patriots Battle to Save the Nation" is a frightening alarm of the ethnic disorder and financial breakdown that are created by the corrupt political, business, and media elites pursuing a globalist agenda. But the book also provides hope that America can be preserved as a unique nation under the rule of law. The tales of individual citizens seizing the initiative to do the job Washington won't -- protect the country from foreign invasion -- are both an inspiration and a playbook. In the spirit of 1776, dedicated patriots show how it's done, and that individual courage still matters.

  
  

• Patrolling Chaos: The U.S. Border Patrol In Deep South Texas
  by Robert Lee Maril

  As the 110,000 residents of McAllen, Texas, sleep soundly, a small number of U.S. Border Patrol agents wait in dark shadows on the northern bank of the Rio Grande. Those thinly spread watchers are the first line of defense against a chaotic tide of undocumented workers struggling to cross the river to El Norte and small, fiercely determined groups of drug smugglers with huge sums of money at stake.

  Patrolling Chaos is based on extensive ethnographic field work focusing on one station of three hundred agents over a two-year period. It follows twelve typical agents, men and women, as they go about their regular ten-hour patrols along the border. It describes the daily challenges and risks they face and the perspectives and insights they hold as a result of their extensive, first-hand experience with the hard realities of immigration policy, the war on drugs, and the threat of terrorist infiltration.

The average recipient gets $2,400 a year by way of a tax credit. Persons who are working here illegally today are not currently getting the earned income tax credit, but if we regularize them and make them permanent residents, they will. That will cost us a lot of money

When the millions that have never filed a tax return do so most will get some type of refund and many will qualify for EIC some for many years. We'll end up paying them to take amnesty.

OBTW: Great post add me to ping please.

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

Bump for American Ideals !

[TigersEye]

Love it. It looks just great! Here is my first contribution.

We don’t need an ‘immigration’ bill. We need and want a border security and illegal aliens bill. An immigration/guest worker bill can come after that is done.

This is not about workers rights or fair immigration policies. It has to do with international communist/socialist orgs looking to gain the political upperhand in the U.S..

Posted by JeffHead Jeff links to Mexica.org's 'after protest' pic fest. You can see there what the marchers thought they were marching for.

A poster for Friday’s march. March 31. This poster lists the Latino orgs that are promoting the protests. They are all communist/socialist front orgs.

Here is my analysis of what is going on behind the scenes.

Here is some evidence that 'amnesty' increases illegal entries. These people knew before the demonstrations that the time was ripe.

Smith Act of 1940 This is the U.S. statute that ought to apply to the organized gathering of tens of thousands of foreign nationals calling for the overthrow of our country.

H.R. 4437 At this link you will find a good exegesis of the only bill that doesn't offer some type of amnesty/pathway to citizenship/excuses for illegal entry. It is harsh on employers but has reasonable protections for employers who verify documents that are later shown to be false. It explains that the databases necessary are already in place. It provides for border security.

Understand that the provision that the protesters say is 'racist,' that makes illegals felons, was inserted by the Dems a short time ago. That clarifies why Hillary happened to discover the immigration issue a week before the marches. Why she demonized Republicans as "making Jesus a criminal."

Keep in mind just who organized these protests. Who provided the tens of thousands of T-shirts, the thousands of professionally made signs, the hours and hours of promotion on Spanish language radio and TV stations. It has been noticed that Islamic orgs names and logos appear on some of these signs as well. Remember that NEA teachers and administrators are the ones who have assisted the march organizers by providing bussing for their students, hoisting Mexican flags at school and overlooking the truancy.

Don't forget that the last two Presidential elections were nearly 50/50. Think about how our Congress is looking for a way to appease these foreign nationals through legislation. No election necessary. The outcome of legalizing 11 million illegals and encouraging more to come will be a solid lock for the left forevermore in national elections.

Mexico is Rich- Mexican wealthy play American taxpayers for suckers

Good thread for any that missed it. It should really make you mad.

Every dollar spent in U.S. taxes for social services for illegal aliens frees up additional cash to be sent south as part of the annual remittances which provided $20 billion in 2005. According to the CNN news show Lou Dobbs Tonight (3/21/05), "Remittances, as they're called, are expected to become Mexico's primary source of income this year, surpassing the amount of money that Mexico makes on oil exports for the first time ever."

Mayans in Chiapas Region Convert to Islam

The bill that was just defeated in the Senate was an amnesty, plain and simple. But take a look at what these treasonous scumbags tried to hide in it. They will be back and we can expect more of this if we do not act decisively.

Daily Freeper Summary

Thanks to exhaustedmomma for the Ping!

The compromise wasn't really a compromise at all, because both bills were big on amnesty and weak on enforcement.

This morning, the Senate voted 38-60 against cloture on the Hagel-Martinez compromise, and 36-62 against cloture on the original Judiciary Committee bill - effectively killing both. The similar margins, the staffer says, "show you that the compromise didn't get us very far."

Okay, it's getting personal now. I'm in Virginia, right on the water, and I just saw a car with California plates and three potential illegals looking for construction work. They were asking people on the street where the work was!

The immigration debate is really not a debate at all

[JustPiper]

Stinkin' Clinton's!

[TigersEye]

I am very honored to be your FRiend. Next to you I feel like such a half-activist. ;^)

The Senate, House and White House are seriously confused about what is at issue and what is at stake here.

The issue of a guest worker program is completely separate from the issue of illegal aliens.

We have a guest worker program. It may need to be reformed but illegal aliens are those who have not applied to be guest workers. There are 11 million of them. (or more) The only thing needing reform now concerns illegal aliens and border security. We need to enforce the existing laws respecting the presence and employment of illegal aliens and border security.

Border security is the number one problem in this debate. The flood of illegal aliens is a major factor in relation to our lack of border security but it is only one factor. There is also a matter of national security in a time of war and in an age when terrorists have set their sights on inflicting mass destruction on our society.

After the issues of border security and millions of illegal foreign nationals on our soil the matter of guest workers is very small. Until the first two problems are thoroughly and firmly addressed the guest worker issue should not even be discussed.

The President the Senate and the House need to get that message with unambiguous resolve.

Border security! No employment for illegal aliens!

Immigration and a guest worker program are separate issues from the above.

Now is the time to put the pressure on!

Local immigration activists to support national protest

Houston, we have a problem!

April 10th: National Day of Action for Immigrant Justice [from migramatters]
On April 10, 2006, immigrants and their allies from around the nation will mobilize in Washington, DC and multiple other cities to oppose the harsh and unworkable HR 4437. They will be demanding real immigration reform that is comprehensive, respects civil rights, reunites families, protects workers, and offers a path to citizenship for the current undocumented and future immigrants to the US.
In Houston, a march will be starting at Guadalupe Plaza, located at Navigation and Jensen (in front of Talento Bilingue de Houston) at 1:30pm. The march will go into downtown Houston and end at Allen's Landing. People are encouraged to get there early as parking may be really difficult. If this march ends up becoming larger than the Walk for a DREAM that took place on March 25th, it may very well be the largest march in Houston's history.

You are just wonderful my friend! We got a groove going on! Yah!

[ARealMothersSonForever]

It appears that our republic is in conflict. May I provide an excerpt of a letter:
"I am not a Know-Nothing. That is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor of degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that “all men are created equal.” We now practically read it “all men are created equal, except negroes.” When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read “all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics.” When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty--to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy."

Mary will probably pass a day or two in Louisville in October. My kindest regards to Mrs. Speed. On the leading subject of this letter, I have more of her sympathy than I have of yours.

And yet let say I am

Your friend forever

Heard a representative from ANSWER on Laura Ingraham's radio show the other day.

He said ANSWER split from the international communist movement some time ago, because ANSWER supported the Soviet takeover of Hungary in the late 60s, and also supports North Korea.

So here we have ANSWER supporting this illegal movement. How telling is that? The same group that supported the invasion of Hungary, and the NK regime, is working on this.

LOU DOBBS, CNN ANCHOR: Tonight here in Washington, supporters of amnesty for million of illegal aliens have suffered a major defeat in the U.S. Senate.

Also, hundreds of thousands of people preparing to demonstrate and protest in 70 cities across the country in support of amnesty, illegal aliens and against border security. Will these demonstrators continue to display the flag of Mexico or will they fly the flag of the United States?

Transcript for Dobbs Friday

__________________________________________________

More on WHY the Senate lost itself!

The second nasty surprise? Just before the committee approved the bill on the evening of March 27, Sen. Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) offered the "DREAM Act" as an amendment. It passed on a voice vote.

NOTE: Could be WHY voicemail was full! The DREAM Act is a nightmare

The bill also gives an amnesty to the nine states (including New York) that have been flouting the '96 law, two of which (California and Kansas) are now facing lawsuits (I'm a counsel to the plaintiffs in both cases).

The third nasty surprise lies in what the bill fails to do. The measure envisions a massive amnesty for illegal aliens now in the country - but doesn't give the Citizenship and Immigration Service (CIS) the personnel or infrastructure to implement the amnesty.

Heads Up TM'ers! :

In 1986, the terrorist Mahmud "The Red" Abouhalima fraudulently got amnesty as a seasonal agricultural worker (in fact, he was a New York cabbie). That status allowed him to travel to Afghanistan for terrorist training - which he later used as one of the 1993 World Trade Center bombers.

Terrorists know how to game the system. Janice Kephart, former counsel to the 9/11 Commission, released a study last year on how easily terrorists obtain immigration benefits. Of 94 alien terrorists in the United States, she found that 59 were successful immigration frauds. That includes six of the 9/11 hijackers.

SENATOR SESSIONS ON SECURING AMERICA'S BORDERS ACT Mr. President, I thank Senator Leahy, ranking member on the Judiciary Committee.

I have received just this afternoon in my office some disturbing news in the form of correspondence from the Congressional Budget Office. It suggests a number of areas where the amendment we are talking about here today, No. 3424, the immigration so-called compromise, violates our budget and the rules of the Senate.

Let me read from the correspondence we have received. This is something, as you know, Mr. President, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, that we never discussed at all. It is not a matter we spent any time at all discussing as we moved forward with legislation which ultimately cleared that committee and came to the floor — legislation which I thought was not good legislation and which I opposed, and so did the Senator from Texas, who just relinquished the Chair. We didn't discuss the financial impact of the legislation before us.

Stand Up For America !

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Thank you Senator Sessions!We have a winner! They were in such a hurry to cram it down our throats..they forgot who was paying for it and how much it would cost..Malfeasance! Dereliction of Duty! Violation of their own Rules! Censure! Vote the bums out!

[JustPiper]

What American people should tell Congress:
~Phyllis Schlafly

* Be honest when talking about immigration; seriously address voters concerns.

* Reject amnesty no matter how it is disguised.

* Reject all temporary foreign-worker or guest-worker bills.

* Put troops on our borders to stop the invasion of illegal aliens and save lives.

* Cut off federal highway funds to any state that gives drivers licenses to illegal aliens. (This is just as important and legal as laws that cut off funds from states that don't enforce speed-limit or seat-belt laws.)

* Prosecute employers who import illegals and/or hire workers in the underground economy.

* Terminate the H-1B program; we have no labor shortage of engineers.

* Pass strict rules to stop the rampant abuse of L-1 visas.

* Forbid government agencies to outsource jobs offshore.

* Forbid "totalization" of Social Security with foreign countries.

* Reduce the number of legal immigrants we admit every year from 1 million to one-half million.

* Eliminate fraud in legal immigration (such as fake marriages) and in refugee admissions.

* Cut off federal funds to cities that have "sanctuary" laws and refuse to arrest illegals .

* Do a better job of screening immigrants for diseases in order to stop the importation of West Nile virus, malaria, and other Third World diseases, as well as diseases that the United States long since eliminated in our country such as tuberculosis, polio and measles.

Thanks for the post RS!

[WilliamofCarmichael]

They [the reform's costs] also do NOT include revenue losses and outlays for the Earned Income Tax Credit, which we will be getting from the Joint Tax Committee and which results largely from the conditional non-immigrant provisions. Those revenue losses and Earned Income Tax Credit outlays may be significant.

Does that mean what I think it does? If so then I say again, we CANNOT afford to have the ILLEGAL aliens "pay" their back / future taxes!

. . .you will see that they [the "cheap" labor] fall in the classic earned income tax credit range . . . The average recipient gets $2,400 a year by way of a tax credit.

Yes, I think it means what I've always thought would happen.

It's called government subsidized "cheap" labor for American businessmen who hate government interference.. er, well, most interference.

Don't forget to budget for the millions and millions of relatives of the "regularized" workers -- regularized workers hate being alone.

Remember to put SSA on alert.. those regularized workers will need to have their years of W-2 data all transferred from the Earnings Suspense File to the SSA Earnings Master File when they get their shiny new SS numbers.
