Fellow Conservative,
We did it! Thousands of patriots across the country raised their voices after learning that the GOP’s budget was going to fund Barack Obama’s amnesty executive action.
We blew up the Congressional phone lines and melted the Congressional fax machines.
Yesterday, the CR-Omnibus funding bill made no mention of Obama’s illegal alien amnesty. Today, there is an amendment on the table that would cut off funding to it entirely!
This new amendment was introduced by Representatives Matt Salmon (R-AZ), Mick Mulvaney (R-SC) and Dave Brat (R-VA). As you might remember, Dave Brat unseated former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in this year’s primary election.
It is short and sweet: “None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made available, including any funds or fees collected or otherwise made available for expenditure, by this division or any other Act, or otherwise available to the Secretary of Homeland Security, for any fiscal year may be used to implement, administer, carry out, or enforce the [amnesty] policies.”
The amendment has been written and introduced… now it is up to YOU to get loud and DEMAND that the GOP leadership allow a vote on it!
Tell Congress to FORCE the leadership to allow a vote on this anti-amnesty amendment.
Do you want to know what one Capitol Hill GOP aide has said? He says that the reason GOP leadership has opposed the anti-amnesty amendment is that they think it could actually work!
If Boehner and McConnell allow this language into the spending bill – stripping Obama’s amnesty of any funding – then that would hurt their own plans to introduce amnesty in 2015!
Think about that for a second…
This is something we have been hearing for a while. GOP leaders don’t plan on stopping Obama’s lawless amnesty… they want to codify it in law as soon as they take over the Senate!
Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) is the Chairman of the House Rules Committee. He will ultimately have a say over whether the anti-amnesty amendment is put up for a vote.
Rep. Sessions met with Democrat lawmakers recently and outlined his plan to give amnesty to illegals. “I’m going to use my assets and resources in the new year to work with this Congress,” Sessions said, “to have a well-understood agreement about what the law should be, and how we as communities, and farm communities, and tech communities, create circumstances where we can have people be in this country and work, and where not one person is quote ‘thrown out’ or ‘deported,’”
He doesn’t care about helping Americans get jobs. He wants to provide cheap labor for the corporations that have been lining his bank accounts.
To call Rep. Sessions a RINO would be an understatement. But one man cannot be allowed to silence the majority of Americans who want this amnesty halted immediately!
One Congressman cannot be allowed to stop this anti-amnesty amendment! We must rise up and DEMAND that this anti-amnesty amendment be added to the budget bill!
If this amendment is put into the spending bill, Senate Democrats will have to pass it. There simply won’t be enough time to rewrite the bill before the government runs out of money.
This is why the founders gave Congress – specifically the House of Representatives – the power of the purse. They knew that a day would come when Congress would need to rein in an out-of-control President.
The founders could have given the Senate this responsibility but they chose the House of Representatives. Do you know why? Because Congressmen are elected every 2-years, they have to listen to their constituents and public opinion, otherwise they lose their election.
The Founding Fathers gave YOU the power to stop this lawless President. But the only way that happens is if you raise your voice now and force your Representative and Senators to vote to defund Obama’s amnesty!
Sincerely,
Joe Otto
