ALIPAC Drops 10 Endorsements Over Candidates' Support for Obama's Amnesty

ALIPAC was shocked to learn that ten members of Congress who have been endorsed and supported as candidates because of their opposition to amnesty for illegal immigrants are now supporting Amnesty, according to reports from Amnesty supporting groups like America's Voice.

In response, ALIPAC is dropping endorsements for ten incumbent GOP candidates and launching a call and search for GOP primary challengers to remove these turncoats from office in 2014!

These candidates were endorsed because ALIPAC believed they would support existing immigration and border laws instead of any form of Amnesty or legalization for illegal aliens. ALIPAC's support was based on these candidates signing pledges to oppose Amnesty and their strong grades with the organization NumbersUSA.

"The plan to pass Obama's Amnesty for illegal aliens in 2013 is based on the expectation Boehner will betray the Hastert rule and lead two dozen Republicans to vote with most Democrats to pass Amnesty," said William Gheen, President of ALIPAC. "We do not know how the amnesty supporters got these Republicans to defy more than 80% of their constituents and turn against their prior positions against amnesty, but it has happened and they must go!"

ALIPAC is warning conservative and Tea Party groups across America about this betrayal, and is launching immediate searches for strong GOP primary challengers who will oppose Amnesty for illegal aliens in the home districts of the 26 GOP members of Congress supporting amnesty found on this list (CLICK HERE).

Here are the 10 GOP members of Congress who have forced ALIPAC to rescind multiple endorsements for the first time since the national organization was founded on 9/11 of 2004!

The turncoats targeted for removal from office in the GOP Primaries of 2014 due to their support for Obama's illegal alien Amnesty plan are:

Sam Johnson (R-TX), John Carter (R-TX), Darrell Issa (R-CA), Don Young (R-AK), Greg Walden (R-OR), Peter King (R-NY), Spencer Bachus (R-AL), Mike Coffman (R-CO), Dave Reichert (R-WA), and Jason Chaffetz (R-UT).

While ALIPAC continues to endorse 141 remaining incumbent members of Congress who have indicated their support for existing laws and opposition to Amnesty, verification of these stances will now be required for continued support and endorsements in the 2014 election cycle.
