I have been faxing and emailing all the senators again today. I left VMS last night and will do so again tonight. I have called McConnell and Reid and spoken to the staffers there with the appropriate message. I have also faxed congratulations and encouragement to the good guys.
I called Lautenberg's staffer and asked if he intended to vote to strip legislation from the bill and he said he felt sure he would BUT the Senator had not made a declaration yes or no?! It's an election year so the answer means nothing in my opinion. Forget Menendez..I can't stomach a call there.
I will continue to work on the rest of them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
just recieved this email from Senator Inhofe
"I am emailing you on an urgent matter. Last week, several U.S. Senators inserted immigration measures into a crucial War Spending bill in an attempt to force the Senate to legalize illegal workers. If allowed to pass, one of these provisions would grant amnesty to between 1.35 and 3 million illegal workers, while containing no requirement that these immigrants prove they paid their taxes for the days they worked illegally.
Allowing this amnesty amendment to stall important, necessary war funds is a slap in the face to our men and women in uniform. That is why I am asking you to co-sign a letter to Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid calling for the amendment's removal from the bill. I joined many of my colleagues in proudly signing this letter and I know you would like the opportunity to do the same.
This is the full text of the letter to Senator Reid I am asking you to sign with me:
We write to express disappointment that the Senate Appropriations Committee chose to include in the War Supplemental more than 100 pages of immigration language that would grant legal status to more than one million illegal alien agricultural workers and their families. We urge you to remove these controversial provisions from the bill so we can enact essential funding for our troops without delay. If these provisions remain in the bill, you can expect a vigorous debate on immigration policy.
Please join me in telling Senate leaders that the vast majority of American people want border security and enforcement. Tell Senator Harry Reid that it's unacceptable to play politics when it comes to our military men and women.
And after you co-sign the letter, please forward it to your family and friends.
The Senate Amnesty Caucus is at it again and they must be stopped. Failure to defeat this amendment could set a dangerous precedent in the Senate. Give an inch on this issue and we can count on the Amnesty Caucus to try and stretch it into a mile.
So please help me quickly demonstrate that conservative Senators' firm stance on the amnesty amendment is backed by tens of thousands of American voters.
Sincerely,
Jim Inhofe"

I phoned most of the Senate, and noticed an interesting trend.
The staffers for senators who promote amnesty, green cards, and foreign visa workers were ALL rude, smug, and supercilious.
