Friends,

2. For a view of the kind of philosophy that is driving this massive increase in foreign workers and in rewarding the illegal behavior of hundreds of thousands of outlaw employers and millions of illegal aliens, take a look at this video of Sen. Graham (R-S.C.) when accepting his recent award from the National Council of La Raza.

America does not belong to Americans, apparently. America is just an idea. National community means very little to the promoters of amnesty. If people took risks to come here illegally, they should be rewarded for their initiative, according to Sen. Kennedy (D-Mass.) today.

Perhaps most importantly from the Graham video is that providing amnesty is saying NO to the bigots of this country who oppose amnesty.


NUMBERSUSA PRESS RELEASE TODAY

NumbersUSA Condemns Senate-White House Immigration Agreement
Instant Amnesty for Lawbreakers, Heartache for American Workers

WASHINGTON, DC – NumbersUSA decried the immigration deal announced by the Senate today. The proposal would allow virtually all illegal aliens currently in the United States to remain and work in this country. In addition, it would raise legal importation of foreign workers over its already peak historical level. Over the next 13 years alone, it would increase the current number of foreign-born green card holders from about 25 million (who arrived over 75 years) to around 50 million.

“The Senate negotiators would have us believe we can solve illegal immigration by rewarding it, and that we can deal with the American people’s sense of being overwhelmed by a 20-year flood of accelerated immigration by increasing the numbers still further,â€
