The Senate passed its version of the Department of Defense (DoD) Appropriations bill (H.R. 3222), which included a provision by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) to set aside $3 billion for border security, but the House-Senate negotiators, under guidance from the House Democratic leadership, removed the $3 billion in conference.

Please fax your Democratic representative and decry the removal of the $3 billion in border security funds. Let your representative know that House Democratic leadership is leading them astray and against the desire of his/her constituents that Congress adequately fund the border security measures that have been promised.

Background

Sen. Graham sponsored the amendment to the DoD bill with Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), which would:






Provide funding to construct 700 miles of fencing;

Provide funding to procure Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), ground sensors, and vehicle barriers;

Increase the ability to detain illegal aliens who overstay their visas and commit other crimes; and

Provide funding for states and localities that undergo training to assist the Federal government in enforcing immigration law.


The Senate voted in October to attach the $3 billion in funding to the DoD bill by a vote of 95 to 1.

Senators Graham, Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.), Jim Demint (R-S.C.), Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.), Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), Mel Martinez (R-Fla.), Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), and Elizabeth Dole (R-N.C.) held a press conference on November 7 to decry the removal of the border security funding from the DoD bill.

That's great, now what are you going to do about getting the funding back?

I received mine this morning and took care of it. I seem to be getting all of their email alerts.

Done ...and I am letting know how I feel about the billion to Mexico and 25 million to La Raza....while veterans sleep in the streets

Same here. I just sent 5 faxes off to my reps -(5!) that I didn't even know about. I wonder if my provider is to blame. Sometimes they like to pick out what they think is "spam" without even asking me.

Just went over, they had three faxes for me to send.

thanks
