DISQUS

The Colorado Independent: Candidates have defined positions on immigration, but does it matter

  • Brittanicus · 1 month ago
    Sen. David Vitter R-LA-Bennett R-UT have been offering an amendment to the Commerce, Justice, and Science appropriations bill that would require the U.S. Census Bureau to add questions regarding immigration & citizenship status of 20 to 30 million plus illegal immigrants and families in the 2010 decennial census. If these questions are not asked it is certain that--ALL--these illegal aliens will be counted in the census and states will lose billions of dollars in federal funds to states infamously designated as SANCTUARY STATES such as CALIFORNIA and gain Congressional seats (and electoral college votes) due to this counting of illegal aliens.DEMAND FROM YOUR SENATORS THAT SEN. VITTERS’ AMENDMENT BE INCLUDED. Only citizens and permanent residents should be counted. Just may be citizens and legal residents should--abstain--from being counted in the 2010, if the Democrats insist in illegal immigrants who broke our sovereignty laws.

    Another aspect of this is undermining a genuine access to the legal population was the near disaster formulated by Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada. Sen. Reid, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tried to staunch any nationwide use of E-Verify or other government efforts of enforcement? IT SHOULD BE REMEMBERED THAT BOTH CALIFORNIA, NEVADA AND OTHER BORDER STATES HAVE MONOLITHIC POPULATIONS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS. Shamefully, E-Verify cannot protect American competition from H-1B visas, but it has begun to dissipate the millions of jobs stolen by illegal labor in the country.
    Alerted people have erupted in their constituencies, rousing their voices at 202-224-3121 in Washington. THE PEOPLE –stopped dead the tabling of E-verify, which is now funded for another 3 years. However we must keep continuously watch as HS head Janet Napolitano has already moderated the local police policy 287 G. My observations suggest to me that--ALL THIS WEAKENING--of immigration enforcement is leading up to the Democratic Representative from Chicago Luis V. Gutierrez, to commence the devastating push for another AMNESTY or as it’s called a path to citizenship.

    TODAY IS THE DAY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT CORRUPTION AND COMPROMISE BY OUR POLITICIANS AT NUMBERSUSA, JUDICIAL WATCH & CAPSWEB. SAY NO TO ANY NEW PATH TO CITIZENSHIP. ADD HONEST AMENDMENTS TO THE 1986 SIMPSON/MAZZOLI BILL, NOT ANOTHER COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION BILL, UNLIKE THE PREVIOUS ONE THAT WAS OVERFLOWING WITH FRAUD. light a fire under nonchalant politicians who are selling American workers futures to highest bidder contact WASHINGTON at 202-224-3121 As easily as you voted for these people, you can vote them OUT?

    We need workable solutions towards restoring fairness to our broken immigration system. These solution should unite and not divide us - and should include reform that respects due process and fairness allowing us to celebrate the values that we hold dear - fairness, opportunity and due process. When we deny due process to some people, ultimately it will affect all of us. To hear more stories about why we need reform and to take action go to www.restorefairness.org.
