ADDED IN APRIL: THE GOVERNOR, UNDER ORDERS FROM THE AG INDUSTRY REFUSED TO HELP WE THE PEOPLE ON THIS – SB 458 WAS REFUSED A VOTE AND DIED IN THE HOUSE. The first time Georgia didn’t pass an illegal immigration bill since 2005.
Nathan Deal is a fraud.
.ACTION NEEDED RIGHT NOW AND UNTIL THURSDAY PM
There are three days remaining in the 2012 Georgia legislative session: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, March 29.
If the House Rules Chairman does not allow a vote on the bill by the full House it will die. The ACLU and the rest of the illegal alien lobby will have proven their power in the GOP controlled legislature. In an election year.
We have the votes there to pass SB 458 in the House, IF we get the chance. Because it has been improved since it was in the Senate, from the House, it would go back to the Senate for approve/disapprove…we have the votes there too.
The ACLU has invented a fairy tale that by increasing security on foreign passports, foreign tourists will not be able to use their passports as ID in Georgia if SB 458 passes. A complete and intentional lie. Don’t look for the media to reveal the truth on this.
Non-citizens (aliens) in the USA are required to carry proof of legal presence on their person at all times and have been since 1940 under federal law. Visitors from countries for which we waive the need for a visa get a stamp in their passport that shows they are here legally.
ACTION NEEDED UNTIL SB 458 is passed in the House and the Senate: Please call the office of the House Rules Chairman, Rep. John Meadows, right now. Then send him an email. Then do the same for the Speaker of the House, Rep. David Ralston.
Then call your own Representitive and tell them how important it is to pass SB 458 and to get illegal aliens out of our university system and to stop the acceptance of passports from illegal aliens who get those passports here in Georgia after they escape capture at our borders!
Our message is simple and polite:
“Please get SB 458 out to the House floor for a vote ASAP and get illegals out of our university system. Stop accepting undocumented passports from illegal aliens! I am a registered voter. Please know that we are aware of the pressure that the illegal alien lobby, including the ACLU, is applying to the Republican controlled legislature on SB 458. YES to SB 458. This is an election year We are watching. Don’t let the ACLU run the GOP legislature!”

KING: GOP vs illegal alien lobby in Gold Dome battle on public college education for illegals
There is a battle in the Georgia Capitol over whether the Board of Regents — the people who run the taxpayer-built University System of Georgia (USG) — will be finally forced to stop admitting illegal aliens into Georgia’s public universities and Tech Schools. It is quite educational to watch.
At issue is Senate Bill 458, introduced by state Sen. Barry Loudermilk (R-Cassville), which would streamline the process by which official agencies administer public benefits, increase security on acceptance of foreign passports as “secure and verifiable” identification to obtain benefits and insert impossible-to-redefine or ignore language into 2006 state law that was intended to have already stopped admission of illegal aliens into USG.
On the anti-enforcement, opposition side are the usual suspects, including the ACLU, virtually all of Georgia’s many well-funded, tribal-centric, leftist illegal alien lobby corporations and yet another militant faction calling itself the “Georgia Undocumented Youth Alliance” (rallying cry? “Undocumented, Unafraid, Unapologetic.” Recently seen T-shirt blurb? “I am in the U.S. I-L-L-E-G-A-L-L-Y! Screw you!”).
And with accompanying entourage, the Chancellor of the Board of Regents, Hank Huckaby, recently appointed by Gov. Nathan Deal, has testified in committee against passage of SB 458.
The goal of all state legislation aimed at illegal immigration is to make Georgia very unattractive to that crime. Enforcement, an undeniable deterrent, works. Resentful illegals have threatened to leave Georgia if the bill passes and is actually enforced.
The Regents’ stated ambition is to educate the illegals so as to further “a productive Georgia.”
Never mind that encouraging illegals to remain in the U.S. is a crime or that illegal aliens are not legally eligible to work anywhere in the USA. And that if admission policy in our tax-funded post secondary education system is based on the ludicrous premise that another amnesty is just around the corner, we may as well hoist the flag of surrender on all of our immigration laws. And our borders.
The outcome of SB 458 and the fight with the far left in the Republican-controlled Capitol will be quite enlightening for attentive voters for a variety of reasons. Not the least of which is watching Gov. Deal on his rock-solid, no-nonsense 2010 campaign promise to “do whatever necessary to prohibit illegal aliens from attending any school in Georgia’s university system and our technical college system.”
The governor has remained silent on the bill. There are few days remaining in the 2012 session.
A similar House measure (HB 59) was allowed to expire this year after the former Democrat chairman of the House Higher Education Committee, Carl Rogers (R-Gainesville), refused to allow a vote when it was clear that there were more than enough to pass the bill.
It is important to know that the same bill was heard in the same House committee last year and passed, with a “yes” vote from then-legislator Hank Huckaby. Because it was halted to focus on HB 87, it had to repeat the committee process this year.
The author of the landmark 2006 Georgia law on illegal immigration, Senate Majority Leader Chip Rogers, has testified three times in committee that the intent of his law was to keep illegal aliens out of USG.
The Chairman of the Senate Committee on Rules, Don Balfour, has testified that his own active-duty Army son was unable to register for all of the preferred and needed classes to get a full load at Gainesville State University because of lack of classroom seats.
On her blog — “Dissident Prof” — Georgia-based writer and Emory University professor Mary Grabar recently described a February “Teach-In” she attended at Georgia State University College of Education, where “the discussion focused specifically on lobbying against legislation in the Georgia General Assembly. The event was attended by professors, teachers, students and professional activists. Jennifer Esposito, Associate Professor in the Georgia State College of Education, pledged to give her students extra credit for writing letters to Georgia legislators opposing legislation restricting illegal immigration.”
Grabar reports that another topic discussed at GSU was “classroom strategies” for putting Christopher Columbus, Queen Isabella, King Ferdinand and others on trial for “genocide.”
Our universities have become de facto training camps to radicalize students — including illegal aliens — who the far-left sees as potential future voters. Georgia taxpayers should not be forced to provide public college classroom seats to illegal aliens.
The attitude of the GOP-led legislature should be “pro-enforcement, unafraid, unapologetic.”
We will soon see.

D.A. King: Will Deal uphold promise to ban illegal students
The Marietta Daily Journal

On the anti-enforcement, opposition side are the usual suspects, including commentary writers at the Atlanta newspapers, the ACLU, virtually all of Georgia’s many well-funded, tribal-centric, leftist illegal alien lobby corporations and yet another militant faction calling itself the “Georgia Undocumented Youth Alliance” (rallying cry? “Undocumented, Unafraid, Unapologetic.” Recently seen T-shirt blurb? “I am here I-L-L-E-G-A-L-L-Y!

Along with the above, this legislation has brought another foe to the committee table. With accompanying entourage, the Chancellor of the Board of Regents, Hank Huckaby, recently appointed by Gov. Deal, has testified in committee against passage of SB 458.

Nevermind our raging unemployment and that illegal aliens are not legally eligible to work anywhere in the country.

Slime, slimed by the slime – Angry Jerry gets a new and well-deserved name: “Angry Jerry-with-ties-to- a- hate- group Gonzalez”
According to the SPLC, Jerry Gonzalez, Executive Director of the anti-enforcement Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials and well-known, far- left smear artist has ties to a designated hate group. Namely, the Marietta branch of the Nation of Islam.
It is my great pleasure to write about recent news concerning GALEO’s Gerado E. (Jerry) Gonzalez from the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center and their latest release of their annual fund-raising “hate map” (I am not making this up, they really publish a national map of what they say are “groups” that “hate” – they even have them divided up into categories). Not many rational people pay much attention this nonsense.
But for the illegal alien lobby, it is a large part of their tool box. “Ties to hate groups” is the constant, baseless and shrill howl made in endless hope that pro-enforcement Americans’ message of demanding an equal application of Americvan immigration laws. Even for illegal aliens. Even for Hispanics.

Report challenges attack on Secure Communities
A new report from the Center for Immigration Studies examines the outcomes of Immigration and Custom’s Enforcement’s (ICE) Secure Communities program and how those outcomes have been misleadingly described in one widely-circulated study published by the Earl Warren Institute at the University of California, Berkeley Law School. The Center’s report, second in a three-part series, uses the same database…

SUCCESS!
SB 458 passes out of Georgia Senate! See HERE
ACTION NEEDED!
On to the House – We need more calls, emails and faxes please! Don’t let the ACLU run the Georgia government.
This is an election year for all legislators in the Georgia Capitol which is controlled by Republicans!
Thank you all for your hard work in making the calls and sending the faxes and emails to the Georgia Senate and to Governor Deal!
In an amended version, SB 458 passed the Georgia state Senate yesterday about 3:45. As far as I can see, two Republicans voted with all of the Democrats against protecting the rule of law and our public funded university classroom seats for legal immigrants and American citizens.
You can see the vote record HERE.
The illegal alien lobby is having a hissy-fit and is redoubling the calls and emails to the Georgia House to try to stop the bill.
We cannot stop now. We must fight the anti-enforcement coalition of the ACLU, Amnesty International, Jerry Gonzalez and the other Jane Fonda funded ethnic hustlers at GALEO et al and the members of the University System Board of Regents to see the law that was already passed in 2006 actually be obeyed. This is an election year for all legislators in the Georgia Capitol which is controlled by Republicans!
Please begin the calls, emails and faxes all over again each day starting …now.
As you know, Governor Deal campaigned on the promise to “do whatever necessary to prohibit illegal aliens from attending any school in Georgia’s university system and our technical college system” So far, that promise has been ignored. Now is the time during which we need Governor Deal to begin to honor his promise to us when he was running for office. That promise has made its way to national coverage including by the National Review HERE.
David Ralston, the Speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives will decide which committee SB 458 is assigned to and has the power to insure that it comes out of that committee and then goes to the House floor for a vote. There is little question that the large majority of House Reps would vote “YEA” on SB 458 if given the opportunity – if you make your voice heard and make it clear that voting Georgians want illegals who are not eligible to work anywhere in the USA to be kept out of our tax funded university system.This is an election year for all legislators in the Georgia Capitol which is controlled by Republicans!
SB 458 must be allowed to go to the House floor. The illegal alien lobby knows this and is right now calling Governor Deal’s office, the office of Speaker Ralston and the entire Georgia House. Please start doing exactly that right now.
Please call the office of Governor Deal, the Speaker of the Georgia House (Rep. David Ralston , the House Majority Leader ( Rep.Larry O’Neal) and your own state Representative to say YES TO HB 458!
For Governor Deal’s office – 404 656 1776: ” YES to SB 458. At my house, we are watching to see if Governor Deal will keep his campaign promise on getting illegal aliens out of our university system. Please tell the governor I called and want SB 458 to pass into law.” Email Gov Deal HERE .
For Speaker Ralston’s office – 404.656.5020 ( email and fax contact info HERE ) – ” YES to SB 458. Please be sure the Speaker knows that I am a registered Georgia voter and I am calling to urge him to let SB 458 see a floor vote as soon as possible so that we can deter illegal immigration into Georgia and to get illegal aliens who cannot legally be employed out of our university system. Please pass SB 458 to stop acceptance of bogus passports issued to illegal aliens by the government of Mexico right here in Georgia. Please make it clear that the ACLU does not intimidate the Georgia General Assembly!. Thank you…”
For House Majority Leader Representative Larry O’Neal’s office: ( email and fax contact info HERE ) ” YES to SB 458. Please tell Leader O’Neal that I am one of the majority of conservative voters in Georgia who expects SB 458 to be allowed a vote on the House floor. It is election year in Georgia and we can’t let the ACLU and the other illegal alien lobby groups run our state Capitol! Thank you…YES to SB 458.”
For your own state Representative: “ YES TO SB 458 – Please tell Rep________ that I called today on SB 458 and expect a YES vote and for everything to be done that can be done to get illegal aliens out of our university system and to stop the dangerous acceptance of bogus passports issued by foreign governments to illegal aliens right here in Georgia. We are watching in this very important election year.”
