Shut Down Government to Stop Obamacare Style Secret Amnesty Budget Bill

For National Release | February 14, 2019


ALIPAC.us activists are calling on President Trump and Congress to allow a partial government shutdown this weekend or pass a short term continuing resolution to allow the American media, public, and members of Congress to read and react to the secret budget deal bill before any votes are cast in order to prevent a national tragedy.

ALIPAC contends that it is a complete betrayal of the American public for Congress to conduct business in secret, then try to force a vote on bills unread by lawmakers, journalists, and activists alike on a national holiday like Valentine's Day 2019.

Only DC elites and insiders are privy to what is currently in the more than 1,000 pages of the secret budget compromise bill expected to be filed today and voted on shortly after filing. Passing major contested policy legislation in this way could lead to further dramatic destabilization and turmoil in America.

"It is outrageous and completely unacceptable for any member of Congress to vote on, or for the President to sign, any bill crafted in secret and unread by most lawmakers and laymen alike," declared William Gheen, President of ALIPAC. "We know Congressional elites and DC insiders, like Trump's surrogate Jared Kushner, are using this despicable tactic to pass unpopular measures like Amnesty protections for DACA Dreamer illegal aliens without the public's foreknowledge. This Obamacare style tactic violates the consent of the governed. That is why we are calling on all Americans to call Congress and the White House to demand a government shutdown or continuing resolution until the budget compromise bill has been widely distributed, read, understood, and reacted to."

ALIPAC activists are now calling Trump's White House (202-456-1414) and Congressional Democrats and Republicans alike to demand they pass a short term continuing resolution to keep the government open, or that the government be allowed to shut down over the weekend to allow American citizens the time needed to read and react to the bill.

ALIPAC has been tracking Jared Kushner's and President Trump's offers to Democrats to trade a form of Amnesty for millions of illegal aliens in exchange for token fence repair funds at www.ALIPAC.us.

The Daily Caller Reports:

“No one has seen the final wording of a long and complicated bill we will be expected to vote on tomorrow evening,” Maryland Republican Rep. Andy Harris told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “That’s no way to run a legislature.”

Republican Study Chairman Mike Johnson also confirmed that “as of lunch on Wednesday, members of the RSC, and to our knowledge, even members of the conference committee, had not seen the text.”

All members of the media and concerned citizens are encouraged to contact as many lawmakers in DC as possible with these concerns before a national tragedy occurs that throws America beyond many points of no return.

ALIPAC believes that a short term continuing resolution or a temporary partial shutdown of the government are the only ways to assure that American citizens receive the political due process we all deserve from our elected officials in DC before any vote on the secret budget compromise bill.
