    Help defeat AgJobs..fax/write reps through FAIR

    Please use FAIR's system, oulined below, to take action AGAINST this pending legislation. FAIR makes it easy to: 1) urge Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) to keep AgJOBS off the Senate floor by sending a FREE fax today; and 2) urge your senators to oppose AgJOBS in any form. Follow the instructions under the section "Action Needed."



    Urgent Action Needed to Fight AgJOBS Amnesty
    Senate Poised to Attach AgJOBS to Emergency War Supplemental


    Your help is needed to defeat Sen. Larry Craig's (R-ID) AgJOBS amnesty for illegal aliens engaged in farm work and their spouses and children!

    The Senate parliamentarian has ruled that debate over an AgJOBS amendment will be allowed on the pending emergency war supplemental spending bill. As mentioned, the AgJOBS bill would provide amnesty to illegal aliens engaged in farm work and their spouses and children, even those who have worked in agriculture and left the United States. It would also forgive agricultural employers who unlawfully employ illegal aliens and vastly expand and liberalize the H-2A agricultural guestworker program.

    Help fight anticipated efforts to attach AgJOBS to the emergency war supplemental bill by taking action today!

    Action Needed

    Urge Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) to keep AgJOBS off the Senate floor by sending a FREE fax today. Follow this link http://capwiz.com/fair/issues/alert/...313791&type=cu then click on the take action button to send this prewritten, editable fax.

    Urge your senators to oppose AgJOBS in any form. Click here http://capwiz.com/fair/issues/bills/?bill=7071376 then type your zip code into the take action now box to send a FREE faxed message. (These messages are pre-written based on cosponsorship of Sen. Craig's AgJOBS bill, S. 359.)

    Follow up your faxes with phone calls. Call Sen. Frist at 202-224-3135. Find your senators phone numbers here on our web site http://capwiz.com/fair/dbq/officials/ or call the senate switchboard (202-224-3121) and ask to be connected.

    Sample Message for Sen. Frist's Office:
    (If you live in Tennessee, be sure to mention so when calling.)

    "I'm calling to urge Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) to keep Sen. Larry Craig's (R-ID) AgJOBS amnesty off the Senate floor. Do not allow this legislation on the Senate floor in any form. Specifically, do not allow it to be considered as an amendment to the emergency war supplemental bill.

    The American people oppose rewarding illegal aliens with amnesty. AgJOBS would provide amnesty to illegal aliens engaged in farm work and their spouses and children. In addition to rewarding illegal aliens for violating our immigration laws, this bill forgives employers who have violated laws against hiring illegal aliens. Rewarding such behavior is unfair to those who play by the rules and will encourage further disregard for our laws.

    This bill also vastly expands and liberalizes the H-2A agricultural guestworker program, which will further depress wages and working conditions for American workers in this industry.

    Please uphold your oath of office by protecting the laws of this nation. Do not allow them to be sacrificed or modified for the benefit of greedy employers."

    Sample Message for Senate Cosponsors of AgJOBS, S. 359:

    "As your constituent, I strongly urge you to reconsider your support for Sen. Craig's AgJOBS amnesty legislation.

    AgJOBS would provide amnesty to illegal aliens engaged in farm work and their spouse and children. In addition to rewarding illegal aliens who have violated our immigration laws, this bill forgives employers who have violated laws against hiring illegal aliens. Rewarding such behavior is unfair to those who play by the rules and will encourage further disregard for our laws.

    Even President Bush regards this bill as an amnesty.

    Please reconsider your support and oppose AgJOBS in any form."

    Sample Message for all other Senators:

    "As your constituent, I strongly urge you to oppose Sen. Larry Craig's AgJOBS amnesty in any form.

    AgJOBS would provide amnesty to illegal aliens engaged in farm work and their spouses and children. In addition to rewarding illegal aliens who have violated our immigration laws, this bill forgives employers who have broken laws against hiring illegal aliens. Rewarding such behavior is unfair to those who play by the rules and will encourage further disregard for our laws.

    This bill also vastly expands and liberalizes the H-2A agricultural guestworker program, which will further depress wages and working conditions for American workers in this industry.

    Even President Bush regards this legislation as an amnesty.

    Please oppose this legislation in any form, whether offered as an amendment to the emergency war supplemental bill soon to be considered or brought to the floor as stand alone legislation, S. 359."
