Tell the House to KILL the Senate's Immigration BILL
FREE REPUBLIC | July 5, 2013 | Lakeshark & onyx

Posted on 07/05/2013 7:07:40 AM PDT by onyx



Dearest FReeper-Patriots-FRiends,
Hey Y'all



The GOP House must KILL the Senate’s Immigration BILL, and the time for us to act is now. Today, tomorrow, this coming week!

Like Rush said on Wednesday, Free Republic was the Tea Party before there was a Tea Party”.

The House is the last stop between Amnesty and saving our Republic.

We have been told that the House Leadership will meet on or about July 10, 2013 to decide on how they’re going to deal with the “Senate’s Immigration Reform Bill.”

They are caught between big money interests and the will of the people, meaning us, those they represent.

We know the House must be our firewall to prevent this odious bill from going to reconciliation.

There are two ways it can be passed. First they can bring up and debate the Senate bill, then vote on it. That’s the least likely way it will happen, they won’t dare do this.

The other way it can happen is to fashion a bill that sounds goods, paying homage to even stricter border security, or some such bilge that will never be enacted.

If they do that, or anything at all with the illegal immigration issue this term, it will go to conference and be reconciled with the Senate bill.

Some of you have already had some luck with your representatives who are sympathetic to our conservative cause. A lot of people are calling and writing, asking their congressman to tell the House leadership to just say no to any debate and to any bill in any form.

There are strong signs the calls are beginning to have a positive effect. It’s vitally important now, for all of us to burn up the phone lines, burn up the fax lines, and e-mail our representatives and the House leadership to KILL the Senate’s BILL.

All of us must do our part and also ask our families and friends to the very same, even if our US Representatives are not on our side and likewise regarding the US Reps of our families and friends.

Calls and e-mails count!

A couple of points you might want to get across:

1. Remind them of how the Senate and the House were lost to democrat leadership after the last attempted betrayal on illegal immigration.

2. Remind them (nicely and passionately) that we are perfectly capable of replacing them once again should they repeat their mistake.

3. Remind them that this bill is bad for America, bad for the economy, and bad for the workers of this country.

4. Remind them we are a party of ideas, not pandering. The idea that we will be liked more for passing the Senate bill or any kind of amnesty bill is untrue; actually it’s media and democrat driven.

5. Ask them not to bring up the matter for debate, not to bring ANY bill that could go to conference with the Senate. No bill, no conference, just say no! This is not something the American people want.


Call your Rep, fax them, and for sure, email them.

Call the House leadership, fax them and email them.

We have no more than a week to do this. It’s now or never for us to make our stand. Ask your congressman to take his/her stand.

Link to all the phone, faxes, and emails for every Congress Member .

Have at it.



Speaker Boehner is playing games with his link. Try as I have, I can't live link his e-mail form like I did last week. Here it is for you all to cut and paste into your browsers:


http://www.speaker.gov/contact

Office of the Speaker H-232 The Capitol Washington, DC 20515

Speaker's Phone: (202) 225-0600


Fax: (202) 225-5117



Thanks so much, everyone!



God bless and keep you all.

Let’s get this done right away!

No other country is allowing this many immigrants. This Amnesty bill will be the death of the USA. The millions of new 3rd world immigrants will vote for socialism/democrats.

Just a few horrors is this horrible Amnesty bill:

1. Amnesty for 30 million illegals
2. those 30 million new citizens will be allowed to bring in their extended family members from the 3rd world = 50 million more NEW 3rd world immigrants.
3. Amnesty forever to any 3rd world liar who claims political asylum (any Muslim). Michelle Bachman said this alone could bring in another 50 million 3rd world immigrants. total count 130 million new democrat voters so they can turn the USA into a socialist state.
4. all these new citizens will have more rights than Americans. a $5000 penalty for employers if they hire An American over an amnestied 3rd world immigrant
5. democrats import All these 130 million new democrat voters from the 3rd world so that democrats can turn the USA into a socialist/communist state where they will give all your property and money to these immigrants
6. a massive increase in work visas for many many occupations in many fields ,even professional ones
7. The democrats know if they can destroy liberty in the USA then the rest of the world will follow. this is the plan to destroy liberty in the world and install communism worldwide
8. Massive amounts of $ to community organizations to register these immigrants as democrats
9 .A 1200 page obamacare like bill doling out billions to democrat organizations
10. big brother crap

There are many more but I don’t have time to post them all

what are these Senators thinking voting for 1200 pages of communist evil?

Why aren’t we out in the street protesting this bill or at least melting the phone lines?

Only chance to stop the Amnesty bill is for the House not to consider any immigration related bill at all.

Michelle Bachman explained it. ANY House bill no matter if it promises all the border security in the world will be a trojan horse.NO bill at all must come out of the House because it will be merged with the Senate Amnesty and trojan horse bill. Call congress.

Tell them to stop all Amnesty or immigration bills.they are all trojan horse bills. some will promise border security that will never be enforced anyway.

Bachmann explained it . The House will write a border security bill only . then in conference the senate will add the virus and then bring it back to the house. then the conservatives won’t vote for it but democrats will all vote for it so then they only need 10% of republicans to pass Amnesty and the virus that will destroy America. so any bill at all will be added the virus . so best thing is for Boner to not let any immigration bill at all come out of the House. that is the only hope . call boner and the members of the House.

Tom Tancredo echos what Michelle Bachmann said.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3036438/posts

call congress . no bill at all from the House

and of course boner must not bring the Senate bill for the House to vote on. no senate bill, no border security bill from the House .nothing.

It just took me 30 minutes of hitting redial, but I finally got my fax through to Boehner's office. I almost gave up, I had put the fax on speaker and it kept getting a busy signal. I whooped when I heard that squeaky connection tone and it went through.

His line was busy the entire time, I think his line IS being burned off the hook!

Same thing happened when I was sending Eric Cantors fax. I think (pray) they’re all getting hammered.

No need, found it, just sent it, just changed the name at the top to Cantor:

My name is ________________, if you look up my name you will see I have donated to Senate and House races on behalf of GOP candidates. I am a strong member of the GOP base. I am writing to ask you to stop the Senate Immigration bill. I am writing to ask you to not bring up the bill for debate, I am asking you to not bring up ANY bill that could ever be brought to conference with the Senate bill, as even a good House bill would be compromised severely if this were to happen. I’m asking for no bill, no debate. I believe I represent the vast majority of the GOP voting base and we are watching to make sure we are not betrayed by your trust.

I want to remind you that this illegal immigration issue is the main one that lost the GOP Senate and House majorities in 2006. I can promise you if you did betray our trust on this issue, we will know, and once again you will lose your majority.

The Senate bill is a bad bill, it will not fix anything, rather it will exacerbate the problem. Most voters agree with me, most polls showing some 70 plus per cent of the American public, and close to 90 percent of the GOP voters opposing this. The best thing you could do, is simply not to bring this, or any other bill up that could be reconciled in conference with the Senate bill.

Thank you for listening

Here is page two and three that I sent along to Boehner, Cantor, and my rep.

REASONS TO DISLIKE THIS BILL

1. It is similar to the amnesty bill of 1986 that made the problem worse, plus the current bill is laden with pork, is far longer and far worse in its detail.
2. It is similar to the bill that failed to pass in 2006, the one that LOST THE HOUSE TO DEMOCRAT CONTROL, kindly remember that! The Republican base hated that bill and hates this bill now. I promise you if you pass anything at all, the base will flee as they did in 2006, you will lose your reelection, and the House will become securely in democrat hands.
3. The promise of border security is not true. It is a farce. It would all be left to the discretion of the current administration, the one that refuses to secure the border, the one that won’t enforce current law. We know this, and we hope you do as well. Read the bill, it’s despicable.
4. It is amnesty. Paul Ryan claims it is not, but it is; he claims he will debate anyone on that issue, but he actually won’t. I hope he enjoys his thirty pieces of silver along with Marco Rubio. If you award a path to citizenship to those who came in illegally, it’s amnesty.
5. It’s a slap in the face to all those who stood in line legally to gain citizenship and those who are still waiting. It’s outrageous that those who wait and abide by the rules will be punished for not walking in illegally. It’s not just outrageous, it’s shameful.
6. The Senate bill passed the same way Obamacare passed, in the same shameful way, pushed through without any meaningful debate, pushed through too fast so the Senators didn’t have to face their constituents, pushed through while their phone lines were being burned up by average citizens who were against it, pushed without anyone knowing what was really in it (ex: do you want to punish employers who don’t hire the illegals like this bill does?). It’s over a thousand pages, and the ridiculous Corker amendment is almost as long. You can’t really defend this, this isn’t the reason you went to Washington to represent us.
7. It passed because democrats know they will have a majority in perpetuity when these illegals become citizens. Why do you think not one democrat voted against it?
8. It will eventually break our budget many times over, sending us over a fiscal cliff we have never seen. Anyone who claims this will help our budget is simply lying, just like they lied about Obamacare costs.
9. This is not about race, it’s about lawbreakers being given amnesty. I have Hispanic relatives, I love them tremendously, but those from any race (not just Hispanics) who come in to the country illegally must not be given a pass, they must not receive amnesty for their law breaking while those who waited patiently and followed the rules to gain entrance to the US legally were denied.
10. Many of the current citizens in the US would have their jobs put in jeopardy if this bill passes in any way shape or form. Many would lose their jobs, many would pay dearly with cuts in salary and lose benefits as a result. This will be a horror to the current labor force and those working hard to make ends meet. It will be turning our backs on the working class, and they will know it.
11. As soon as this bill passes, the democrat majority will loosen the restrictions on welfare and health care benefits and proceed to demagogue you as heartless for not joining them. It is their way, they will do it, and likely win. That will triple the negative budgetary consequences that already surround this bill, and make a mockery of what we all stand for.
12. As soon as this bill passes, the democrat majority will demagogue the inability to vote, raising a storm about how unfair this is. It will be one more constant campaign issue for them to use.
13. It is a slap in the face to current US citizens, it flies in the face of what any other country does to secure its borders and national sovereignty. It will destroy our ability to function as a nation. It is suicidal.
14. The current US citizenry is against amnesty, and against this bill, close to 75% of the American public. Surely you can oppose moneyed interests, media lies, and democrat pressure to side with 75 % of your fellow citizens.
15. In the guise of compassion, this bill and its ideas are destructive. It pretends to solve something when it only exacerbates the problem. It is a huge lie.
16. The president likes this bill, Harry Reid likes this bill, Nancy Pelosi likes this bill, Chuck Schumer likes this bill. They are all radical leftists who have nothing in common with us or you. That alone ought to alert us to stop this bill.
17. Hispanics will not like us if we pass this bill, they will not vote for us if we pass this bill. It is pandering to believe that nonsense, an insult to thinking people everywhere. If you want the Hispanic vote, sell them on sound conservative principles. That is the way to get their vote; persuade them our ideas are better, persuade them their lives will be better, since they will
