Do the advocates of the current Senate Amnesty
(Immigration) Bill have the best interest of the American people at heart? Do they consider the impact on the American middle class worker when they have to compete with millions of newly legal immigrants? Are our congressional representatives representing the Americans who put them in office or a constituency of non-citizens?
Consider
the plethora of amendments to improve the bill that HAVE BEEN DEFEATED:
- Confirm the border is secure before granting any
amnesty.
- Restrictions on gang members.
- Curb financial aid and welfare payments to illegal immigrants
- Exclude many criminals from the proposed amnesty.
- Mandated fingerprint-checks at some of the nation’s busiest airports.
- Reallocate federal funding currently going to "sanctuary cities" to enforcement agencies.
- Strengthening asylum laws
- Deny amnesty to serious criminals, including
domestic abusers, child abusers, and drunk drivers.
- Deny annual Earned Income Tax Credit payments to people who receive amnesty.
- Allow profiling by country of origin.
Read each of those again and ask yourself why any elected American official would oppose any of them?
