Do NOT make any more calls to the Rule Committee Members (unless they are from your district).

We need you to immediately phone your own U.S. Representative (even if he/she usually is pro-illegal-immigration). 202-224-3121

It now looks like the whole U.S. House is going to take up the stimulus bill this afternoon. We now expect the Rules Committee to issue rules for debate that will allow the E-Verify provision to be included (see explanation below).

Whatever the Rules Committee does, there is likely to be some kind of vote on whether to allow governments and businesses getting the trillion dollars of stimulus money to hire illegal aliens.

There may be a point of order on the floor to strip the requirement to use E-Verify to keep illegals out of the jobs. There may be an amendment to do that. Or if the Rules already stripped E-Verify, there may be an amendment to put E-Verify back in.

Your job is to let your own Representative know that his/her constituents expect this bill to explicitly require E-Verify to make sure all new jobs go to Americans and legal immigrants already here.

You all did an incredible job this morning. At the beginning, we were hearing that phone calls were running 50/50 on whether to allow stimulus money to be used to hire illegal aliens. Now, it sounds like the Rules Committee was absolutely overwhelmed by anti-illegal phone calls.

You must make this happen in your own Representative's office immediately. We don't know when the vote may occur. It could be tomorrow. It could be this afternoon. Time is of the essence.

THANKS,
