Massive Public Opposition to (Bad) “Dream Act” Amnesty!

From ALIPAC
William Gheen Interview

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC or ALIPAC is launching a national campaign to try and stop Senator Durbin’s Dream Act Amendment, which would provide Amnesty for millions of illegal aliens, give them taxpayer subsidized in-state college tuition rates and place them ahead of American students.

“This is the Bad Dream Amnesty Act,” says William Gheen of ALIPAC. “This legislation would replace American students in the limited seats in college at taxpayer expense! Our organization has helped to defeat this measure many times on the state level and now we will try to stop the Senate from passing it.”

ALIPAC helped defeat in-state tuition measures in three states including North Carolina, where polling data by the Civitas Institute shows that over 81% of likely voters oppose “Dream Act” legislation. The legislation was defeated in NC, VA, and even Massachusetts by large margins!

“This legislation will harm American students and families while rewarding illegal aliens. It will cost taxpayers billions of dollars and provide another big incentive for people to illegally immigrate to the United States,” says Gheen. “Four out of five Americans want the Senators to say No to the Dream Act and any Visa increases. Americans want immigration enforcement instead!”

Senator Durbin and others plan to try to attach amendments that provide Amnesty for illegal aliens and increased Visas for more immigration onto the National Defense Authorization Act-Agreement. The amendments are not GERMAINE to the bill and violate Senate rules and ethics that state amendments must be relevant to the bill.

ALIPAC calls on members of the Media, state lawmakers, and citizen activists to warn the public and to bombard the Senate with calls, e-mails, faxes, and letters to demand that they abandon these sneaky amnesty attempts, which are designed to override the will of a majority of Americans and the efforts of states and cities to crack down on illegal immigration.

by John Young Some Senators are either so beholden to special interests or so pathologically hateful of our folk that they are planning to attach the Amnesty bill to a Defense Authorization bill early next week. They are planning to attach three amendments: (1) The “Dream Act” Amnesty. This would give as many as 20 million illegal aliens instant legal status, plus give them preferences for in-state tuition rates, federal student loans and a host of other benefits at the expense of both U.S. citizens and legal immigrants. (2) “SKIL Act” Provisions. This would nearly double the H-1B Visas issued within the next year, and triple them a year from that. In addition, employers would have more flexibility to pay lower wages to H-1B “temporary” workers and even more H-1B workers would be exempted from caps altogether. (3) Expansion of H-2B Visas These are non-agricultural seasonal “temporary” worker visas for unskilled labor. Expansion of this program is insane because we already have a surplus of unskilled workers on welfare and another 12 million+ unemployed. Call the Senate TODAY at (202) 224-3121 and tell your Senators NO on these amendments!
