NUMBERSUSA.com 1 Million Members Strong and STILL Growing!
By Phillip Zanders, Friday, May 28, 2010, – posted on NumbersUSA
NumbersUSA recently achieved a milestone few organizations can even dream of. This week, we recruited our 1 Millionth Activist who can send a fax to Congress. That’s 1 Million Activists in favor of more sensible immigration policies!
That’s right, 1 Million Americans, just like you, have sent a fax, urging Members of Congress to support more sensible immigration policies. If you do the math, this amounts to 2,300 NumbersUSA members in each of the 435 Congressional Districts nationwide!
NumbersUSA continues to rank among the top public policy organizations in terms of website views and overall Internet traffic. We are constantly referenced and mentioned in news and media reports. Adding our 1 Millionth Activist only reinforces our position as a dominant player in the political arena. But more importantly, it shows just how deeply and passionately the average American truly cares about ensuring that our immigration laws are properly enforced and carried out.
Far too often, the pro-amnesty movement decries that American citizens prefer amnesty and an open-border policy over enforcing immigration laws. But having 1 Million citizens fax Congress in support of our views truly shows that so many people care about our issue and want to become involved. And this only strengthens national polls that show that an overwhelming majority of Americans agree with enforcing immigration laws over granting massive amnesties to illegal aliens.
Even though this is a tremendous milestone, we still have a long way to go in getting Congress to actually support the immigration policies our national leaders have been reluctant to make a priority over the years. Just because we’ve added our 1 Millionth Activist doesn’t mean that we will slow down in our efforts urging Congress to support more sensible immigration policies.
Far too many Members of Congress have an immigration grade that desperately needs improving. The broad support for the new Arizona bill shows that upholding our immigration laws even reaches the state level of government as well. Now more than ever, we need our Activists to utilize our state faxing in order to get your state legislative assembly to enact enforcement laws similar to the new Arizona enforcement law.
And don’t forget about the Schumer/Graham/Menendez amnesty bill, which is still looming over Congress. Prominent officials from the President down to church leaders are determined to see an amnesty pass before the fall elections. But the only thing keeping a bill off the floor of Congress is the enormous opposition generated by our activists!
As immigration continues to be one of the top domestic policy issues currently facing the nation, we hope that we will add even more members to our ranks and continue to grow in the future. But a grassroots organization such as ours is only as strong as the people behind it.
We constantly get responses asking what steps our members can take to become more involved. Well, you can help us grow even more by sending this link — http://www.numbersusa.com/dfax?id=12257 — to everyone you know, and urge them to become a part of NumbersUSA, America’s Largest Immigration-Reduction Organization!
