    BIG LIST OF GOP LAWMAKERS WHO WANT TO SAVE OBAMA'S AMNESTY

    34 demand provision for 'dreamers' by Christmas





    A group of 34 House Republicans are pressuring Speaker Paul Ryan to give a Christmas present to the roughly 800,000 young people who entered the country illegally and were granted special status by former President Obama’s DACA program.

    DACA stands for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a policy enacted in 2012 by a stroke of Obama’s pen.

    At the time, most Republicans derided the policy as unconstitutional while Democrats championed it as the right thing to do for children brought to the United States illegally by a parent “through no fault of their own.”

    Now, 34 GOP House members have come out of the shadows and seen the light of Obama’s policy, and they want it codified by Christmas, according to a letter they sent to Ryan on Dec. 5.

    But there’s a movement afoot to call the 34 to account.

    ‘Kate’s List’ is keeping tabs

    Americans for Legal Immigration, or ALIPAC, is targeting the pro-amnesty Republicans for primary challengers in 2018.

    While the group of 34 wants amnesty in place to guarantee a merry Christmas for 800,000 illegals, ALIPAC leader William Gheen says he has been making a list and checking it twice.

    ALIPAC’s list has been dubbed “Kate’s List,” in honor of Kate Steinle, the 32-year-old woman with a bright future whose life was cut short by a bullet fired by an illegal Mexican migrant who had been convicted of seven previous felonies and deported five times. Jose Garcia Zarate entered the country a sixth time and headed to San Francisco, a notorious sanctuary city, where he shot Steinle on July 1, 2016, as she walked on a pier with her father.

    Zarate was acquitted of manslaughter charges last week in a jury verdict that stunned the country, as Zarate did not deny handling the gun and pulling the trigger.

    Gheen said Congress should be focused on providing justice for Steinle’s family and other families harmed by illegal-alien crime in sanctuary cities.

    The 34 pro-amnesty congressmen feel otherwise. Their eyes are on DACA illegals as the true victims of injustice.

    “We are compelled to act immediately because many DACA recipients are about to lose or have already lost their permits in the wake of the program’s rescission,” the 34 lawmakers said in their letter to Ryan. “Not acting is creating understandable uncertainty and anxiety amongst immigrant communities.”
    Gheen says ALIPAC is trying to create a movement that would call these GOP lawmakers to account about their skewed priorities.

    “We are adding these 34 Republicans to our Kate’s List because they are more focused on helping illegals than protecting Americans like Kate Steinle,” said Gheen.

    Instead of focusing on amnesty for 800,000 illegals Congress should be putting its energy into passing a law that would defund sanctuary cities while appropriating funds for the construction of a border wall, Gheen said.

    President Trump has tried to defund sanctuary cities by executive order but had his actions derailed by a federal district court in California, a sanctuary state.

    ‘They should have known better’

    Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies for the Center for Immigration Studies, said some of the names on the list of 34 are predictable, others a bit of a surprise.

    “Some of those lawmakers really stepped in it. A handful of the signers of the letter are known amnesty-pushers, like Rep. Jeff Denham,” Vaughan told WND. “Others may have been just careless and clueless as to what they were signing on to and how it would be used. But with immigration such an important issue right now, and so salient with Republican voters, they should have known better.”

    If nothing else, it signifies a detachment from the reality faced by the vast majority of Republican voters.

    “It’s concerning that they consider a DACA amnesty to be such an emergency, instead of border security, interior enforcement and dealing with sanctuary cities,” Vaughan said. “Did they somehow miss the news about the recent death of a border patrol agent, or the Kate Steinle story? It’s time for them to spend less time with the big donors who profit from illegal immigration and more time with constituents who are feeling the effects of immigration enforcement failures. The real emergency is to prevent more harm from an unsecured border.”

    For Gheen, that means finding more sincerely conservative candidates who take their positions on immigration seriously.

    “We’re trying to create a national movement to find quality GOP primary challengers for all 34 lawmakers listed on Kate’s List so we can throw them out of office in 2018 for supporting amnesty like we did Rep. Eric Cantor, Rep. Renee Ellmers, and Sen. Luther Strange,” Gheen told WND.

    ALIPAC activists are calling and sending social media messages to these lawmakers now informing them of the effort to find primary challengers to them in 2018, Gheen added.

    “Our efforts with Kate’s list are being very enthusiastically received online, and in fact we’ve already heard from one new candidate we plan to endorse, Joseph Billie, a candidate for Congress who completed the ALIPAC survey indicating his opposition to amnesty and we are going to endorse him against Rep. Patrick Meehan of Pennsylvania’s 7th district.”

    The states with the most lawmakers on Kate’s list are from Pennsylvania with five.

    New Jersey and New York are next with four each on the list.

    “We want to take down and replace as many of these Kate’s List members as possible,” Gheen said.

    Utah Rep. Mia Love: Keep Dreamers in ‘the only country they know

    Local activists meet with Sen. Orrin Hatch’s office to plead for DACA renewal before the new year.


    (Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) A group of protesters hold a short sit-in at the Wallace F. Bennett Federal Building in Salt Lake City Tuesday December 5, 2017, asking federal representatives to include a clean DREAM Act in the Omnibus Spending bill, or to vote against the Spending Bill should DACA protection not be included.

    Time is running out for Dreamers — immigrant recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) — who will face deportation without an act of Congress.

    On Tuesday, Rep. Mia Love joined 31 congressional colleagues to urge Speaker Paul Ryan to prioritize the passage of a legislative solution for DACA recipients before the holidays. It would apply to people who were children when they were brought illegally into the United States.

    “Thousands of DACA recipients live and work in my district, contributing to their community daily,” Love said in a prepared statement. “I have no interest in separating them from what is likely the only country they know.”

    Love is a co-sponsor of the Recognizing America’s Children (RAC) Act (H.R. 1468), which provides a pathway for DACA recipients to permanently remain in the country.

    Also Tuesday, a group of 15, including Dreamers and their supporters, rallied at the Wallace F. Bennett Federal Building in Salt Lake City to urge U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch to enact similar legislation.

    There are some 10,500 Dreamers in Utah, said organizer Talitha Nascimento. Of them, 122 are losing their legal status every day.

    Tania Ruiz, 24, is a Dreamer who came to this country when she was 5 years old with her mother, father and three sisters. Her parents gave up careers in Mexico and now work at menial, low-wage jobs, she said.

    “My hope for the future is for everyone to understand what we have been through,” Ruiz said. “We are people who want to work here. We came to a better place for the American dream.”

    DACA allows these undocumented immigrants to go to school, hold a work permit and get a driver license. It also requires they pay taxes. It does not provide a pathway to citizenship and must be renewed every two years.

    DACA will make no renewals after March 6, and Love said Congress must act quickly.

    “It is crucial that we bring a reasonable solution to the House floor,” Love said, “so we can provide certainty to this Utah population that contributes to our communities and growing economy.”

    There are about 800,000 DACA recipients in the United States. To be eligible, applicants must have immigrated by age 16 and lived in the U.S. since June 15, 2007. They had to be 30 or younger when the program was implemented in June 2012.

    Hatch was an original sponsor of the Dream Act in 2001, which did not pass but would have allowed undocumented students to pursue an education. In October, he joined a Republican-led effort, known as the SUCCEED Act, that proposes rigorous vetting requirements for young immigrants to “earn the right to citizenship” over a 15-year period.

    NO AMNESTY

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    ANOTHER TRAITOR TO THIS COUNTRY!

    Their ILLEGAL parents did not "know" this country but managed to sneak across our border and get jobs, steal identities, drop anchor, get on welfare, food stamps, finds schools and FREE healthcare!

    They also "managed" to find the Western Union office and send their money back over the border.


    DEPORT THEM ALL...THEY WILL "FIND THEIR WAY" IN THEIR COUNTRY!

    And that's the way it should be. They should not see US as the smiling friendly fools we have been. They need to see US as the ugly Americans that will either chase them out of here or lock 'em up.
