ALIPAC AMNESTY FLASH ALERT. Some progress in GA and NH?

Supporters of ALIPAC:

Your efforts are working! We have unconfirmed reports that Senator Sununu of New Hampshire plans to vote NO on CLOTURE for the new Senate Bill S. 1639. We need you to ...

1. Call Senator Sununu's DC office at (202) 224-2841 You must insist on specifics about his plans to vote NO on CLOTURE on S. 1348 or the new bill S. 1639. It is very important that you determine if he means No on the CLOTURE vote and No for either bill. If you get a conformation on that, then please express a great deal of thanks and gratitude to both Senator Sununu and his staff and end the call asking them to please try to get the other Senator from New Hampshire, Judd Gregg, to join Sununu in opposing these bills.

2. Please report what you learn via this thread so our other activists can share this information.

3. Then, please call Senator Judd Gregg's office. If Sununu's office has convinced you he opposes these bills, please share that information and ask Senator Gregg to "join with Sununu in voting NO on CLOTURE for S. 1348, S. 1639, or any bills like them." If Sununu is not a solid NO, then practice your regular persuasion calls on Senator Gregg's staff.

Our calls into GA started yesterday morning and by dinner time we had notice that both Senators were in opposition.

We started our calls into New Hampshire early this morning, now we may be hearing a No from one of the two NH Senators! Let us hope and pray that our efforts are working here.

Still no solid No from Richard Burr's (R-NC). His staff is still saying he opposes this bill in its current form. That means, he might support this bill with some changes. Let us know if you can get anything different out of them.

Please go after the Senators from Kentucky and Utah hard because our calls have just started going out in those states. We are really letting Senator Mitch McConnel have it in our automated calls! We are pointing out that he is one of the main supporters of this Amnesty bill for illegal aliens, alongside Ted Kennedy from Massachusetts! We have asked the fine people of Kentucky to call both Senators and to give Mitch McConnel an earful and explain they will never elect him to office again, even as a dogcatcher, if he does not cease his support for this bill. That message should be in about 250,000 homes in KY by nightfall!

NEW TACTIC ALERT

You can use this as a new tactic. Please use this information in your calls, e-mails, and faxes to Washington. Please send copies of this to the media and talk radio shows. Please call in to talk radio shows and explain that the reason Congress's approval ratings are now at historic lows is because they are considering amnesty for illegal aliens, instead of enforcing our existing immigration laws. This poll is a powerful tool if you use it wisely.

For more info, please read, distribute, and utilize

Failure to enforce immigration laws drives Congress approval to historic low!

Will call ASAP and report results here!

Keep up the good work patriots! We are making a difference!

Don't let up!
Keep the pressure on!

On efforts are not going unnoticed!

Georgia Senators will vote NO on cloture! :D :D :D

I called both my NH senators-2nd time today. The answers were pretty consistent both times I called.

Sen. Sununu's office said he will vote NO on cloture and that he is against amnesty in any form. I made sure to verify that it was a no on cloture and he said correct. I thanked him and asked him to please try and persuade Sen. Gregg to vote the same way.

Sen Gregg's office will not commit to an answer-still deciding, depends on possible amendments. I informed him that Sen Sununu is voting no and to please stand strong with him in fighting for the American people. Also reminded him that anyone who votes yes will have protests outside their state offices. This would be selling out America and it will not be forgotten when he runs for reelection.

Just called Burr's office in Winston Salem and she told me they are keeping a log on the calls today.

So please, please call Phone: (800) 685-8916 to tell him NO for cloture on S.1639. I reminded her of the new gallup poll results showing only 14% of those surveyed have confidence in this Congress. I also reminded a large number of Senators will be losing their jobs very soon, and let's be sure Burr is not one of them.

Called :wink:

I just pray...they are speaking without forked tongue 8)

Keep calling until they cannot say anything but NO on CLOTURE.

1:32PM EASTERN TIME
Just called his offfice in DC. Spoke to the aid. "THe Senator is against the bill. I then asked. He is against S. 1639? He said "YES"
SO he will vote NO on Cloture for S.1639. That is correct.
And if it gets to a vote? Aide: "He will vote against the bill if it gets that far"

I thanked him for his stand.

Just spoke to Senator Gregg's assistant in DC
"The Senator has not taken any posistion as of yet"
I reminded him that Sunnunu has taken a position and promised to vote NO on Cloture. I implored him to stand with him and do the right thing.

He obviously needs more pressure for others.

Contacted Sununu's DC office and spoke with staffer "John" at 1:46pm today.

Sununu is on record for being AGAINST the immigration bill. Sununu will vote in opposition to the bill.

Sununu will also vote NO at the next Cloture.

Staffer said that Sunun will not change. Sununu will not support this bill.

Thanked the staffer for being so forthcoming and told him that there would be thank you emails following.

Just finished calling all the Republican Senators. I called Judd Gregg and John Sununu twice. Going to lunch and will do a couple more rounds of calling!

Just called Gregg's DC office and got same thing. No position yet. Mentioned Sununu's NO vote for Cloture and for the Bill and urged staffer to let Gregg know that Sununu has taken a position of opposition.

More people need to call Senator Gregg's office: 202-224-3324

I just got off the phone with his office. Sununu plans to vote in opposition to both bills. I asked by name and the staffer said he is against both of them.

I just spoke with the staffer. Senator Sununu plans to vote NO on the new immigration bill. :D

Called Burr's Winston Salem and DC office...also emailed
Still no solid answer on cloture

I got the same answers. I told Gregg that he needed to join with Sununu and vote no.I told him Americans are watching and we will not forget come election time.

just called (12:20 PST) his office and staff confirmed he will be voting NO at Cloture and NO on both bills!

This morning I sent an email to Senator Chuck Hagel, my Senator from Nebraska.
I stressed the damage that will be done by passage of this bill that gives amnesty to gang members and drains OUR social services tax money as well as the huge number of illegals accepting low wages is killing middle America while holding down fair wages and benefits while prices for groceries and gas keep going through the roof even though economists keep telling us inflation isn't too bad....IT'S TERRIBLE!

Not to mention the issue of Mexicans throwing rocks at border guards....that is too much! Next time we should start shooting back!

You should play that piece by Lou Dobbs pointing out the flaws in the immigration bills over and over for Congress. Don't let them say that they didn't know what was going on! Get Lou Dobbs to rebroadcast his wonderful and powerful speech on the down side of the illegal immigrate bill....most of all, we have to get that message to the White House.

I want to believe that if the politicians knew the problems that were caused by illegals, they would feel different. They are just OUT OF TOUCH with most Americans.

I can understand Democrats wanting to get a bunch of new voters...which may or may not happen, but it's true, traditionally Hispanics vote Dem.

But the unions should be standing in their chairs shouting about this.
I haven't seem one speech by one fired up union official speaking on this issue of busted union pay and Americans loosing fair wage jobs with fair benefits because of these illegals. Have the Union people all turned into whimps?

Let's roll!
Thank you,
Retired Chief Hal Dumas, USN (used to be Republican)
Lincoln, NE.

I was JUST told he is unsure how he is going to vote. Now what?

I make my calls everyday. My congressional reps assistants know me by first name now. Here is a link to a petition that numbersusa just sent to me. Senator Inhofe is getting this petition together. Here is the link: www.securebordersnow.com. This petition is for no amnesty and to enforce our current laws.

I also just recieved an email from a friend in illinois. The email is as follows:

You will not see this heart-stopping photo on the front page of the NY Times or on the lead story of the major news networks. The protestors put up the Mexican flag over the American flag flying upside down at Montebello High School in California.

I predict this stunt will be the nail in the coffin of any guest-worker/amnesty plan on the table in Washington . The image of the American flag subsumed to another and turned upside down on American soil is already spreading on the internet, forums and via e-mail.
Pass this along to every American citizen in your address books and to every representative in the state and federal government. If you choose to remain uninvolved, do not be amazed when you no longer have a nation to call your own nor anything you have worked for left since it will be "redistributed" to the activists while you are so peacefully staying out of the "fray". Check history, it is full of nations/empires that disappeared when its citizens no longer held their core beliefs and values. One person CAN make a difference. One plus one plus one plus one plus one plus one.........
The battle for our secure borders and immigration laws that actually mean something, however, hasn't even begun.
If this ticks YOU off...PASS IT ON!

I would not forward the pictures, but it shows just about all the kids in the highschool smiling beside the flags. Mexican flag on top and the American Flag upside down on the bottom.

Please everyone sign the petition and call your senators. Cee

I just finished speaking with Senator Sununu's staff. When I asked about the Senator's plans on S. 1639, the staffer told me that he was going to vote "no" on cloture.
In concluding my call, I asked the staffer to contact Senator Judd Gregg's office to solicit his "no" vote on cloture (I also plan on calling Senator Gregg's office directly.

Genebuehl, hdumas, 442, mott, JSB and the Rest, Welcome to ALIPAC :D


Please keep making those calls. If you want to do more Please see the ALIPAC Action Panel
http://www.alipac.us/modules.php?name=C ... age&pid=19

Called short time ago his aid says she doesn't know how he will vote. I reminded her that many Senators that vote for this bill will be out of a job soon!

I just called Senator Sununu's office for the second time today (this time I got a male instead of a female). I told him that I just spoke with Senator Gregg's staffer and, when asked about how he would vote on cloture re S. 1639, I was told that he was unsure, that he was waiting to see what amendments would be added. I encouraged a "NO" vote on cloture. When I asked about Senator Sununu's vote, I was again told that he would be voting "NO" on cloture on S. 1639, that the Senator was against amnesty. I thanked the staffer for this proper vote and encouraged him to contact Senator Gregg's people so that New Hampshire could be united in their "NO ON CLOTURE" vote re S. 1639. As a sidelight, I also warned both senators' staffers that there was a move afoot to silence talk radio. This info comes from a a left wing group, "The Center for American Progress" in their 'report' entitled "The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio." My question is this: what about the "imbalance" on broadcast and cable TV news and in the newspapers throughout the nation? Better beware, people.

I just galled Senator Sununus office and the staff member informed me that the Senator is voting NO on both Bills--Hurah

Genebuehl, hdumas, 442, mott, JSB, Texasborn, Nannie and all newcomers WELCOME TO ALIPAC!! :D :D :D

I called Senator Sununu's DC office at (202) 224-2841 to inquire about his stance on the two immigration bills. The woman that answered seemed to be irritated that she had to answer my questions. Nonetheless, she stated that Senator Sununu is against BOTH bills!!!
Keep pushing! I can smell victory now and it sure smells sweet!

Sounds like you are really making progress! Read the below from Numbers USA. I've haven't seen much bad info from them.



It is S. 1639. The bill is the same legislation as amended two weeks ago.


TWO GEORGIA REPUBLICAN DRAFTERS OF AMNESTY BILL NOW OPPOSE IT


The two Georgia Republican Senators who were part of the Kennedy/White House backroom negotiations that created this bill in the first place have announced their intention to vote NO on cloture and the bill.

This is a really big development. That now makes three of the Republicans on the negotiating team who have deserted the product.
