(September 20) The Senate will resume consideration of
H.R. 1585, the
Defense Department authorization bill for fiscal year 2008, at 10:30 a.m.. At
some point during the debate, open-borders senators will attempt to
attach three proposals that, when taken together, would grant amnesty
to millions of illegal aliens and dramatically increase the importation of
foreign workers at a time 10 million Americans are looking for jobs and can't
find employment.
The floor vote on the amendment containing the DREAM Act amnesty -- new
number: SA 2919 -- may occur tomorrow. It will take 41 NO votes to kill this
amnesty. Currently, only 20 Senators are telling their constituents that
they will vote NO on the amnesty. Click to see list of Anti-Amnesty Champions who
have officially pledged to vote NO.

PRO-AMNESTY IN JUNE AND STILL
PRO-AMNESTY
The senators noted below supported amnesty in June and show every sign of
voting for amnesty again this week. They have been blasted all summer for their
anti-American worker, pro-lawlessness stance. Perhaps your phone calls today can
help them decide against voting for amnesty again.
