Keep Up the Pressure, It’s Working
Monday, May 21st, 2007Senate leaders agreed Monday that they would wait until June to take final action on a bipartisan plan to give millions of unlawful immigrants legal status.
The measure, which also tightens border security and workplace enforcement measures, unites a group of influential liberals, centrists and conservatives and has White House backing, but it has drawn criticism from across the political spectrum. In a nod to that opposition, Senate leaders won’t seek to complete it before a hoped-for Memorial Day deadline.
Honestly, this bill was just farcical. The amount of bureaucracy and expanded government that would go into this doesn’t help anyone in the long run.
Keep up the pressure. Call your two Senators and your Congressman if you haven’t already done so. Amnesty by any other name is still amnesty all the same.
