Frist Agrees to Illegals Amnesty Senate Compromise
May 11, 2006 02:18 PM EST

By Sher Zieve – In a compromise with Senate Minority leader Harry Reid (D-NV), Senate Majority leader Bill Frist (R-TN) has revived the Senate version of the Border Security and Immigration bill that would provide millions of illegals with a “path to citizenship” or Amnesty. The Senate is now pushing to complete its version of the bill, as groups who support illegal aliens had told them to do, before Memorial Day.

Although recent polls of US citizens show that the vast majority of the US electorate supports the House version of the bill and does not agree with Amnesty (latest polls show this majority to be 4 out of 5 American citizens), the Senate said it is determined to pass it. Frist said that he will send 14 Republicans and 12 Democrats to the US House of Representatives, to negotiate the Senate deal and attempt to convince Congressional Reps to go along with it.

On its website, ALIPAC (Americans for Legal Immigration Political Action Committee) has listed Sen. Frist’s telephone number and is urging US citizens to call and voice their opposition: voice: 202-224-3344 fax: 202-228-1264.
