GREAT NEWS!!

With the U.S. Senate vote Saturday, the bad Dream Act Amnesty has been defeated. Sen Harry Reid could possibly attempt some other sleazy or slimy tricks before the lame duck session of Congress ends, but I don’t think it would get traction. Our opponents fell five votes short.

This is a big deal as it stopped a major amnesty and gives unemployed citizens some level of hope, since several million illegal immigrants won’t be granted the legal ability to get jobs.

Our work is not complete in any sense, but let’s take satisfaction in our Victory. And let’s remember to thank our two U.S. Senators from North Carolina, Sen Richard Burr and Sen Kay Hagan for voting against the Dream Act. More to follow on that.

And certainly a BIG thanks goes to those of you who worked to defeat the Dream Act. It was very close in the end, and the difference became the effort by Patriots who got involved and took action.

A special thanks goes to NumbersUSA and their staff. We at NC LISTEN focus on what we can do at the state level while also supporting the larger national immigration reform groups. I truly believe the Dream Act would have passed if not for the organizational work of the staff of NumbersUSA, who have personnel in Washington, DC to monitor and closely follow events and gave us the info and tools to help defeat the Dream Act along with other statewide immigration reform groups around the nation.

Again we have much more work to do, but for now, lets savor our Victory.

We must keep Amnesty from passing in the US Senate this SATURDAY in order to kill the bill. We’re almost done, don’t stop now.

TAKE ACTION – STOP AN AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. Use the talking points below.

We have high unemployment in the USA so why give illegal immigrants benefits for college and then an amnesty to allow them to take jobs in the USA?

And Illegals will get a 10 year work permit literally right out of the box.

The Dream Act may allow an amnesty for as many as 2-3 million illegal immigrants. Then they can later on sponsor millions more of illegal immigrants.

Every illegal immigrant getting into college in the USA is one less American student getting in, because enrolling in our colleges and universities is a selection process and there are only a limited amount of seats.

Illegal immigrant adults can simply return to their native country and go to college there, and this is where they would be legally allowed to work.

The so-called Dream Act will allow illegal immigrants into our Colleges and Universities with in-state tuition, and it gets worse as they would also be eligible for taxpayer subsidized student loans, estimated at $6,000 each yearly (according to the Center for Immigration Studies), which should be reserved for poor American students.

The amnesty for illegal immigrants Dream Act bill passed the U.S. House recently.

We must keep it from passing in the US Senate this week in order to kill the bill. We’re almost done, don’t stop now.

Worse yet Congress would use our tax dollars to fund the amnesty.

Please help and call the following U.S. Senators [down below] NOW, as these Senators are on the fence, according to our friends at NumbersUSA.

Also again call Senator Kay Hagan (NC) who needs encouragement to remain against the Dream Act.

The Democratic leadership doesn’t think they can pass the Dream Act in the U.S. Senate, so Nancy Pelosi (while Speaker of the U.S House for now) is attempting to pass it in the U.S. House TOMORROW to gain some sort of momentum.

TAKE ACTION BELOW to keep illegal immigrants from getting in-state tuition rates to our universities, along with allowing them access to student loans and giving them an amnesty which will then allow them to sponsor other illegal immigrants!

We have high unemployment in the USA and Nancy Pelosi wants to give illegal immigrants benefits for college and then an amnesty to allow them to take a job in the USA?

Every illegal immigrant getting into college in the USA is one less American student getting in, because enrolling in our colleges and universities is a selection process and there are only a limited amount of seats, AND we know many liberal universities will favor illegal immigrants if given the chance.

The so-called Dream Act will allow illegal immigrants into our Colleges and Universities with in-state tuition, and it gets worse as the amnesty would also allow them (when they turn 21) to sponsor their illegal parents for U.S. citizenship. The “bad Dream” Act amnesty clause may apply to illegals up to 35 years of age.

TAKE THIS ACTION:

Emails are not often read, so please CALL.

Call your member of the U.S House. If you don’t know, go to: http://www.house.gov [look at the upper left corner of the webpage and enter your Zip Code and then click GO].

If we don’t take action, the other side wins. The Dream Act and Amnesty may be voted on tomorrow. Take action now to stop it as we did before.

TAKE ACTION BELOW !

The so-called Dream Act to allow illegal immigrants into our Colleges and Universities with in-state tuition has appeared again in the US Congress, and the Democrats are also pushing to give them an amnesty as well as long as they graduate high school. It gets worse, as the amnesty would also reward these illegals with access to student loan programs, and when they turn 21 they can sponsor their illegal parents for U.S. citizenship.

Of course this would be a BAD DREAM for Americans. College is a selection process, so every illegal immigrant allowed into our colleges is one for one less American citizen enrolling in college. The amnesty with all of its benefits is an even bigger insult.

TAKE THIS ACTION:

Let’s focus as follows — tell Sen Kay Hagan and your member of the U.S House to VOTE NO ON THE DREAM ACT AND VOTE NO FOR ANY AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS [if illegals do not have to go back to their native country and get in the back of the line there, it's an amnesty].

Call: U.S. Senator Kay Hagan (877) 852-9462 at her Greensboro office or (202) 224-6342 at her Washington, DC office

Call your member of the U.S House. If you don’t know, go to: http://www.house.gov [look at the upper left corner of the webpage and enter your Zip Code and then click GO].

If we don’t take action, the other side wins. The Dream Act and Amnesty may be voted on as early as next Monday. Take action now to stop it as we did before.
