Monday April, 22 last day for amnesty hearings

[Greg in LA]

Monday April,22 is the last day for Senate hearings on the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill.

Be sure to call our Senators and a few extra Senators and tell them something about why the amnesty is bad for our country.

1. Financial reasons: Heritage Foundation study claims it will cost 4-5 trillion dollars.

2. Terrorism reasons: The Boston Marathon massacre highlights how unable ICE. and DHS. is unable to adequately screen immigrants for criminals and terrorists.

3. Unemployment: We have about 25 million people receiving unemployment, and 90 million who are underemployed or have given up looking for work. Illegals have taken jobs and depressed wages that Americans need.

4. It's immigration reform for the 1%. In a time of high unemployment why do we need to flood the labor markets with 11-20 million new amnestied workers as well as vastly increase the number of H1-B and guest workers and a 50% increase in legal immigration? This is immigration reform to benefit the 1%, at the cost of us in the 99 percent.

I know everyone here knows all about this, but my post is just a reminder that we need everyone to spare a little time on Monday and let our voices be heard.
