Sen. Robert Menendez has put a hold on the reauthorization of the E-Verify program. As you know, E-Verify allows employers to determine the legality of their potential new hire. This program is up for reauthorization and many anti-American worker congressmen have been trying to hold the bill up.



Right now, Republican Senators are holding the line against Menendez' incredibly insensitive demands during a severe economic slow-down and soft job market.


But several of the Republicans are starting to negotiate with Menendez because he is indicating he might lift the hold if they give him only 100,000 permanent additional greencards.




All Republican Senators need to hear that they should not negotiate in any way with Menendez because Congress should not be increasing immigration by one greencard while American workers are being laid off.




The fact is that the Democratic leadership in the Senate knows that it can't kill the E-Verify program now that it has become so public. The Republican Senators should just demand that E-Verify go through as a clean bill like it did Wednesday in the House of Representatives.




There are indications that the Democratic Senate leadership wants to push the re-authorization of E-Verify through before the Senators leave town this weekend. There may be a vote tomorrow. Negotiations are furiously proceeding at the moment. We are in danger of bad decisions being made. Urge the Republicans to stay steady and hold the line. It is better to put this off until September than to rush it through and undermine America's skilled workers and the kids who are studying to become skilled workers.




You who are getting this request have indicated on your Interest Survey that you are closely connected to one of these skilled jobs that would negatively impacted. Please speak from your own experience and from your own self-interest when talking to the Senate office staff.



Call Republican Senators from your state and urge them to refuse any attempts to compromise on this. The United States does not need any more foreign workers.
