Reid calls vote for S744 on Monday, we've got work to do!

[Greg in LA]

Reid, is scheduling a vote for the amnesty bill on Monday, we've got work to do this weekend. Senate office's are closed but lets fill up their voice mail and email this weekend.
Numbers USA sent out an alert, perhaps some of you got it. it's a list of the wavering Senators that need to hear from us.

I called everyone of them on Friday and gave them an ear full.
I also emailed all of them late Thursday night. I'm going to call and leave messages and email all of them this weekend so when they get to the office on Monday, hopefully enough of us have swamped their voice mail and email and they'll think twice about voting to surrender our country!

Here it is friends, Lets give em hell! and show them the true American fighting spirit!


You can get the Senators email at www.senate.gov



Calling is simple! You can use the toll-free number we've provided below that will connect you directly to their DC offices. When the staffer answers, tell him/her that the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill can't be fixed with amendments and the Senator should vote NO on S.744. You can also include some of the details from the Congressional Budget Office report that just came out.

The CBO analysis of the bill concluded that Americans are being asked to swallow a 12-year decline in wages for American workers, plus a 6-year increase in unemployment, in return for enforcement that won't cut illegal immigration by more than 25%.

In addition, S. 744 makes the country less secure, according to the president of the union of ICE immigration enforcement agents. The bill weakens current laws on fencing, on the entry-exit system and much more.

No fig leaf border amendment from Sen. Corker will cover the shame of it all.

I got a lot of busy signals today. also noticed a lot of "What's your address". Apparently there is a little interest in listening to only their district constituents. That is a good thing until they start listening to illegals, even those in their districts

[Greg in LA]

I got a lot of busy signals also. Although towards the end of the day (3:00) the lines were mostly wide open.

I was only calling on the list above.

I just finished emailing the Republicans on the list, tomorrow I'll do the Democrats.

I was on the Senate web site and Murkowski, from Alaska is a big problem, as she votes with the Gang of eight and not with the Republicans.

Hoeven, and Corker are expected to vote yes after their amendment is adopted. That will allow Ayotte to sell out. and then I think they will have the 60 votes.

We've got to pound Murkowski, Hoeven, Corker, Ayotte and persuade all the Dems. on the list to see if we can get some crossovers.

We've really got the deck stacked against us.
I'm not giving up though, This bill has had cardiac arrest several times, it's just that this bill is a zombie and they keep bringing it back to life when what it really wants to do is just die.

[Greg in LA]

I called and left messages for all the Senators on the list. A few had message box's full.
Alexander, Ayotte, Corker, Hoeven, and Rubio all have full voice mail boxes as of Saturday afternoon.
I can't tell you how urgent it is for all of us to pull out all the stops. We need to do every thing we can to stop this nation crushing legislation.

We need to call and email all weekend long!

[Ayatollahgondola]

The senate is really hard to influence from our level. They just represent too many people. I wish we could find another way to make an impact on them

[Greg in LA]

Yes it is hard. I think I'm going crazy. I kept emailing and calling voice mail all Friday evening and a good part of Saturday. Not sure it's really going to help,but I need to do something to keep my mind off of my sense of fear and of the impending doom.
If I don't keep busy, I think I'm going to explode.
