New TV ads challenge continuing immigration while 15 million Americans are jobless


DEAR FRIENDS,

I'm excited to tell you that with special designated contributions, NumbersUSA has joined with several other organizations to mount a new ad campaign on national TV.

You will see this "Elevator Ad" running at various times on nearly every program on CNN and Fox, day and night.

No. 1: View the ad here.

We are running this ad to proclaim to the nation the dirty secret that is being protected by nearly all news media and by nearly all politicians.

The dirty secret that the elites don't want the American people to know is: The federal government is continuing to import foreign workers into this country despite 15 million workers already being unemployed.

No. 2: IT IS TIME TO SUSPEND MOST IMMIGRATION.

If that sounds too radical to you, please read my blog calling for an Immigration Suspension Bill.

I talk about the fact that even our allies in Congress are too timid to introduce a bill that should be mandated by the current Jobs Depression. Please read my suggestions for action in using the TV ads and faxes to apply pressure on all Members of Congress to stop all immigration except U.S. citizens' spouses and minor children, and special-needs refugees, until unemployment is low again.

No. 3: Watch my video blog for this week.

Some people say they like getting their marching orders in person. So, come into my office on the banks of the Potomac and let me describe to you our action needs of the week.

No. 4: Go to your personalized Action Buffet and avail yourself of as many actions as you can take.

There is so much pressure needed to focus your Senators and U.S. Representative on the immigration issues and what needs to be done. Our Action Buffet Team has added a number of new actions this week.

You were great yesterday. Joe Jenkins sent you some alerts later in the day. Before midnight, you had already send 98,000 faxes to Congress!!!

No. 5: NOTICE THE NEW DESIGN OF YOUR ACTION BUFFET CORKBOARD.

You will see the corkboard surrounded by some new tabs that are part of our brand new Local Power initiative on our website.

After you have taken actions, please click around on this revised web page and see the new features. Especially note the convenient page that shows all three or your Members of Congress, with grades, discussions, contact info and a Tip Line for you to use.

We will be talking much more about this as time goes on, as we develop far more volunteer leadership from among the top activists in each District.

MAKE SURE YOU ARE CHECKING OUT ALL TOWN HALL OPPORTUNITIES. The links to the Town Hall meetings are listed under the photo of each Member of Congress on your My Three Congressmembers page.

And, as always, keep coming back to the NumbersUSA home page every day to keep up with the latest in immigration news, views, videos and actions.

THANKS,

This may be a good time for you to make sure that you've let us know all of the areas you are interested in. In order to further customize the type of alerts you receive click here http://www.numbersusa.com/survey?action=longlist
