Sens. McConnell & Lott on verge of passing amnesty — unless you get in their way

Friends,

I regret to tell you that our victory of last Thursday night has eroded to almost nothing by this morning.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and Senate Republican Whip Trent Lott of Mississippi have succeeded in twisting nearly enough GOP arms to assure Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) that they can deliver the votes to pass his S. 1348 amnesty for 12-20 million illegal aliens.

Here is the pitch that McConnell and Lott are said to be using — and the pitch that only you can persuade Republican Senators to reject:

Lawmakers are being told that they must agree to vote for cloture ( end of debate) on the amnesty in exchange for a chance to have some favorite amendments brought up OR they will lose a chance to “sit at the table” in final fashioning of this bill.

A senior GOP leadership aide confirmed that anti-amnesty Republicans are being told by Party leadership that they “need to get on board if they want to remain relevant.”

NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU HAVE PHONED IN THE LAST MONTH, YOUR PHONE CALLS ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED TODAY.

CALL ALL SENATORS IN D.C.
202-224-3121

HOLD ONTO OUR DEMOCRATIC ANTI-AMNESTY VOTES

It is imperative that we hold onto at least 9 of the 12 Democratic and Independent NO votes we got last Thursday on the cloture vote.

Phone these offices and urge them not to be taken in by the Republican leadership’s pandering to Big Business lobbyists who are demanding to keep employing their 7-million-plus illegal workers and are demanding an amnesty for all the lawbreaking by the outlaw companies in the past.

Tell these Democrats that they are standing with the American workers on this and should be proud of their principled stand against Pres. Bush’s dream of globalizing the American labor force.

THE 12 NON-REPUBLICANS WHO VOTED AGAINST AMNESTY LAST WEEK
(* Up for re-election in 2008)

* Baucus (D-Mont.)
Bingaman (D-NM)
Boxer (D-Calif.)
Byrd (D-WV)
Dorgan (D-ND)
* Landrieu (D-La.)
McCaskill (D-Mo.)
* Pryor (D-Ark.)
* Rockefeller(D-WV)
Sanders (I-Vt.)
Tester (D-Mont.)
Webb (D-Va.)

TELL GOP SENATORS TO REFUSE ‘A SEAT AT THE TABLE’ AND TO REMAIN ‘RELEVANT’ BY PROTECTING THE WORKERS AND VOTERS OF THEIR STATE NO TO THE AMNESTY BILL!

Call their offices and tell them you have heard of the ‘take-it-or-leave-it’ deal they are being offered and that your advice is:

“Refuse a Seat at The Table If All They’re Serving Is Rancid Mush.”

Tell them that permanently legalizing 12-20 million illegal aliens and giving them permanent access to our jobs is a dish not worth fussing over. No amount of seasoning or ingredient changing can make this dish palatable to the voters of your state.

Any amendment that would truly protect Americans would be killed by the Bush/Kennedy coalition.

No matter how many amendments are allowed for votes, the end result bill will be terrible — maybe slightly less terrible than now, but still terrible. There is no point in trading away a YES vote on cloture for the chance to offer an amendment.

Yet more news media polls are being released purporting to show that the majority of the public supports this Senate amnesty bill. The big use of these polls by reporters and open-borders advocates is to supposedly prove that all of your phone calls are just a loud-mouthed minority.

The fact is that nearly all the media polls fail to offer people the choice of Attrition Through Enforcement.

When Americans are offered a choice between legalization, attrition or mass deportations, most Americans choose attrition. And an overhwelming portion choose either attrition or mass deportation.

PLEASE HELP US STOP THE BUSH KENNEDY AMNESTY!
