Subject: DON'T PANIC: Senate Vote on DREAM Meant to Buy Time to Gain More Support
[quote]The Senate vote on a motion to table the DREAM cloture vote, which took place moments ago, reflected a strategic decision to buy time to build more support for the DREAM Act.
If you were watching the vote or saw a headline about it, you may have been puzzled as to why Senate Leader Reid made a motion to table his own cloture motion, and why so many Democrats voted for it. Why did this happen?
It’s complicated. Republicans have vowed to block every bill in the Senate until the issues of tax cuts and funding of the government for the current fiscal year are resolved. Democratic leadership decided they would push back the DREAM vote until these other issues are resolved. Once the tax cuts and government funding are dealt with, Republicans will not be able to use them as excuses to oppose the DREAM Act.
However: Senator Reid needed “Unanimous Consentâ€

SENATORS WHO ARE CO-SPONSORING THE ‘DREAM’ AMNESTY
Once you have done what you can with phone calls to the Senators on the lists above, you should look through this list to see who is causing all this problem by pushing so hard to give 2 million more permanent work permits to illegal aliens to compete with 22 million American and legal immigrant workers who can’t find a job.
You can reach these through the Switchboard at 202-224-3121 or in our Congress directory.

Where is Senor McCain?
I haven't seen McCain's name on any of the callling lists. I have been calling his Phoenix office for two weeks. They keep saying he hasn't made a declaration yet. Now I can't get through to either his Phoenix office or DC office. Mailbox is full.
We already know that he feels the illegals are "God's children." Why aren't we slamming his numbers with calls? I live in AZ and Jon Kyl is opposed to the DREAM Act.
How do they vote for a renewal of the tax cuts and vote against the DREAM Act amnesty if it is in the same bill? Isn't that the ploy to get the Republicans to vote for amnesty?

Just had a light bulb moment
Oops! Just had a light bulb moment. The DREAM Act amnesty is standing alone. The extension of unemployment freebies is in the tax cuts bill.
Sorry, but my emotions are whipped into a frenzy right now.

From Numbersusa.com
Updated: Thursday, December 9, 2010, 12:04 PM
Today, Sen. Reid succeeded in canceling a cloture vote on S. 3992 (Senate DREAM Act). The Senate voted 59 to 40 to table a motion to proceed with cloture. Reid is likely to file a cloture motion on the House DREAM Act amnesty (H.R. 5281), which passed last night by a 216-198 margin. Senate Republicans refused to voluntarily cancel today's vote in order to force Democrats into two votes, the first of which they were certain to lose because of unified Republican opposition prior to passage of tax cut/government funding legislation. Please continue to call the Senate at 202-224-3121 and urge a NO on the DREAM Act.

Be patient as sometimes it rings a dozen times before the switchboard answers. Sometimes you get a busy circuit and have to redial.
