I will start at page 300 and see how much i can get through today. Might want to post what is being read. So we can keep track and as time is short we can at least review as much as possible, instead of everyone reading the same pages.

There are 18 states that allow a Senator or Representative to be recalled from office. We need to start recall petitions in those states, and remove any Congressman who is in favor of this amnesty bill.
There is no time to wait. If they do not represent American citizens, get rid of them NOW!!

I ran threw a couple hundred pages last night and I have copied and pasted what I thought had some interesting information, I tried to put page numbers on each section but some I forgot once in a while. I didn't read all the details but figured maybe if someone wanted they could have a place to start and read all of it. Over all it looks like Family memebers who can apply for citizenship after original citizenship includes just about anyone, parents, children, stepchildren, brothers, sisters and one place mentions unrelated. The mention of millions of dollars and grants put aside for different sections. Also mentions prejudice against snew immigrant. Apparently we are going to need many new Dr.s for Obamacare. Homeland security will be having free will with hiring no-limit on new employees, Homeland security will be leasing public real property and construction.... Not sure what this was about "Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands in Political. Public housing offered to agriculture workers along with healthcare.
