If you want to make a last-minute campaign donation where it can make a difference for better immigration policies . . .

HERE ARE THE HIGH-IMMIGRATION INCUMBENTS
WHO ARE IN TROUBLE AND COULD LOSE -- and who have anti-amnesty challengers
who probably could use a contribution The pro-amnesty vs. anti-amnesty balance of power could shift a lot in the next Congress.

A number of you have been asking where final campaign contributions might be the most helpful in pushing out high-immigration congressional incumbents in favor of low-immigration challengers.

I asked my staff to prepare the list below without regard to Party affiliations. These are the races where contributions might be helpful (BUT DON'T GIVE TO THE INCUMBENT WHOSE NAME IS LISTED.)

Every incumbent in this email meets the following criteria:

1. Incumbent has failed to use his/her time in Congress to protect unemployed Americans from unfair competition with foreign workers (legal and illegal).

2. Incumbent is considered by the pundits to be in danger of losing his/her seat (but still close enough to keep it).

3. Incumbent has a challenger who is promising to work for less immigration. (A few of these challengers are not promising much at this point. I leave it to you whether you think they are worth supporting.

In other words, the low-immigration challenger is given a good chance to replace the high-immigration incumbent but probably needs extra money to do the job.

I am not endorsing any of the challengers, because we don't endorse anybody. But our research definitely finds that the incumbents listed on this page are the immigration bad guys and their challengers promise to be immigration good guys.

There are many more high-immigration, pro-amnesty incumbents who are in election trouble, but their challengers have not promised to fight open-borders efforts.
When you click on any of the incumbents listed below, you will see our grid that compares the immigration promises of the incumbent and of the challenger.


•You can click on the name of the challenger just underneath the photo to find the campaign web page and a way to donate.


•If you live in any of these jurisdictions, you may want to go to the webpage and find out how you can help with the last days of campaigning.
Take a look at these names. They are all Members of Congress who failed in the last two years to feel any urgency about protecting unemployed Americans from unfair foreign labor competition.

One latest poll shows a statistical tie between pro-enforcement champion Tom Tancredo and sanctuary city Mayor Hickenlooper.

Needs to go
He is the one that will not release all the SS no match letters

And if an employer fires suspected illegals he threatens to sue them
for discrimination
