Thousands of activists are calling, e-mail, writing, and visiting state lawmakers in an historic number of states in 2011, asking for laws that protect American workers, students, taxpayers, and voters from the negative impacts of illegal immigration!

Despite some pushes for state level Amnesty for illegal aliens via guest worker programs in Utah and Nebraska, the overwhelming majority of bills are aimed at enforcing America's existing immigration and border laws that are not being enforced well by the Obama administration.

"We are going to pass many Arizona-style immigration enforcement bills in 2011," said William Gheen, President of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC. "Illegal immigrants are having a negative impact on American workers, students, taxpayers, and voters and state lawmakers are responding well to citizen pressure to act."

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) has been very active dealing with state legislation over the last few years. The organization has helped to defeat all state bills that provide benefits, licenses, and in-state tuition for illegals since 2005 with the exception of two cases.

ALIPAC has helped to pass tough state level immigration enforcement bills in many states including Georgia, Arizona, South Carolina, and Oklahoma.

"We shall go on until the end. We shall fight illegal immigration in Washington. We shall fight back in the cities and towns," said William Gheen. "We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the states! We will defend our nation whatever the cost may be. We shall never surrender!"

ALIPAC activists are lighting up the phone lines of state lawmakers in Utah and Nebraska today as part of a 'lightning round' effort to apply national pressure on strategic points in the states. Six states will be targeted this week.

Oklahoma House Panel Passes Illegal Immigrant Bill

OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma House committee has approved anti-illegal immigrant legislation that would give Oklahoma law enforcement officials new authority to assess the immigration status of motorists.

The House Judiciary Committee approved the bill Monday and sent it to the full House for action.

Its author, Rep. George Faught of Muskogee, says the measure incorporates language from anti-immigrant legislation in Arizona into Oklahoma's existing anti-immigrant measure that was approved in 2007. Both measures have been challenged legally.

Among other things, it gives state and local law enforcement officers the authority to inquire about the immigration status of occupants of vehicles that are pulled over for legal traffic stops.

It also prohibits employers from stopping their vehicles in public roadways to hire and transport pedestrians to a worksite elsewhere.
