ACTION ALERT: numbersusa
Dear Faxer:
New Republican/White House amnesty will cost Americans more than $100 BILLION a year!
This new fax has been posted in your Action Buffet based on your answers to the Interest Survey.
You can find this fax by proceeding to

Robert Rector of the Heritage Foundation has just finished a study that makes the White House plan for big increases in low-skill labor sound like a plot to bankrupt America.
The study looked at households headed by high-school drop-outs.
It found high school drop-outs accounted for about:
9% of native-born Americans
25% of legal immigrants
50% of illegal aliens
The new Bush/Republican Senator plan would dramatically increase the number of legal immigrant drop-outs and make sure that millions of illegal drop-outs stayed in our country.
The cost to Americans will be staggering.
Rector found that the share of federal, state and local costs for each of these high-school-dropout households is around $43,000 a year.
But he subtracted out their share of defense and interest on debt, concluding that:
THE INCREMENTAL FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL EXPENDITURES FOR EACH HOUSEHOLD HEADED BY A HIGH-SCHOOL DROPOUT IS AROUND
$32,000 a year
in government support
The Heritage Foundation scholar then painstakingly dug through government data to find every kind of tax that these households pay. He even included money spent on lottery tickets ($686 per year) and excise taxes, as well as FICA and property taxes and many others.
He said he was a bit surprised to find that these high-school-dropout households pay more taxes than he expected:
Nearly $10,000
a year in taxes
Nonetheless, the bottom line is that these households require:
$22,000 each year
in net taxpayer subsidies
Why would our elected officials want to import foreign workers who require such huge infusions of taxpayer cash?
And why would they be proposing increasing that flow?
Even more astounding is that they want to force American taxpayers to continue to subsidize those who have come here illegally or broken our laws to stay.
Why would the Senate and House Democratic leadership -- and now the White House and most Senate Republicans -- want to keep these lawbreakers -- every one of whose households will cost Americans an average net of $22,000 a year?
Rector's study indicates that these total households headed by foreign-born high school drop-outs are costing taxpayers a net of around:
$100 BILLION a year
Yet, the new White House/Republican Senator immigration plan would ensure that all the illegal aliens getting that subsidy would remain to keep collecting ...
... and that we would add large numbers of new households every year so that the total subsidy could grow much higher.
This Heritage Foundation Study makes it devastatingly clear that our current immigration policies amount to
BIGGEST UNFUNDED MANDATE ON LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS
Now, President Bush and apparently the majority of Republican Senators want to radically increase immigration's costs for local and state governments (and their taxpayers)!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

PLEASE EVERYONE...now is the time...just pick up the phone. If I can call as a Massachusetts resident (Kennedy country), you can call.
Just write out a brief statement and read it if you are at all unsure of what to say (that is what I did the first time because I was nervous).
I guarantee that you will feel great about doing SOMETHING!
