CONGRESS DRAFTING AMNESTY BILL FOR ILLEGALS WHICH WILL NOT ONLY ALLOW THEM TO REMAIN IN THE U.S., BUT ALSO BRING THEIR PARENTS, SPOUSES AND CHILDREN!!! If there's about 30 million here now, we are looking at 100 million in no time.

Reid, McConnell Confirm Amnesty Deal Is Near

I received the following note this evening from a Senate Republican leadership aide that confirms my earlier report about a looming amnesty deal. The new agreement between Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.) and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R.-Ky.) would give senators time to review the legislation before it's voted on. However, it would not give them a week, as 15 conservative senators previously requested.

This evening the Majority Leader and Republican Leader agreed to delay the cloture vote on the motion to proceed to S.1348, last years (sic) Senate passed immigration bill, until the evening of Monday, May 21st (no earlier than 5:30 p.m.).

This will allow negotiators more time to reach an agreement and to allow time for an agreement to be drafted. It will also allow Senators time to review the text of the agreement before the cloture vote on the motion to proceed on Monday occurs.

Negotiations will continue tomorrow.


Stories from the Associated Press and Reuters also make clear that Reid and key Senate Republicans -- Arlen Specter (Pa.) and Jon Kyl (Ariz.) -- could soon reach an agreement that "would legalize the status of millions of illegal immigrants and put them on a path to citizenship."

I'll take this with a grain of salt. Way too much DISINFORMATION floating around these past few days.

Looks like the suicidal Repubs are doing everything in their power to confuse and tire us out, LOL.

Isn't REDSTATE a bushy?

If there's about 30 million here now, we are looking at 100 million in no time.

How could any rational/sane member of Congress vote for a bill that would produce an end result such as this?

If this worthless Amnesty bill passes its all over for us as a nation. Get ready with in ten years, they will own(Illigals) our government, in it will be as bad as Mexico's. I fear what will happen.

I've noticed that too. I'll read one story in one online paper, and then on another paper's site it's different....we are probably being mis-informed on purpose!

It's propaganda. Keep up the pressure folks.
