Organizers for the "Camino Americano: March for Immigration Reform" were spotted Monday setting up a stage and equipment on the National Mall for the rally which will take place on Tuesday.

Susana Flores, a spokesperson for the rally, confirmed for the Washington Examiner that the Park Service will allow the event to take place under the group's rights granted by the First Amendment.

About 30 members of Congress are expected to attend the rally, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J.

The event is hosted by several immigration activist groups, together with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the AFL-CIO.

OBAMA ADMIN WILL ALLOW AMNESTY RALLY ON NATIONAL MALL DURING GOV'T SHUTDOWN

The Obama administration will allow a massive rally for comprehensive immigration reform on Tuesday in Washington, D.C. on the National Mall, even though it is supposed to be closed due to the federal government shutdown.

Open-air spaces like the World War II Memorial have been barricaded since the federal government shut down last week, but an organizer for the rally told the Washington Examiner that the National Park Service will allow the rally and march.
As Breitbart News reported, immigration activists have called for volunteers to get themselves arrested at the rally in acts of civil disobedience.
The event will be a culmination of rallies across the country over the weekend in which immigration activists demonstrated in 41 states demanding amnesty.
A variety of immigration activist organizations, along with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the AFL-CIO, are organizing the event, which they claim will attract 10,000 people.
Lawmakers in Congress like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (R-CA) and Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) are expected to be at the event. Members of the House are trying to pass immigration reform bills that will allow them to go to conference with the Senate, which passed its comprehensive immigration bill in June that provided a pathway to citizenship for all of the country's illegal immigrants.
The Congressional Budget Office determined that bill would reduce the wages of working class Americans while not solving the country's illegal immigration problem.
House Republicans have been reportedly working under the radar on immigration reform, and Pelosi has said Democrats are willing to do "whatever it takes" to get to conference with the Senate. House Republican leaders have also expressed support in moving immigration reform legislation forward. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, who is the chairwoman of the House Republican conference, told Univision's Al Punto on Sunday that "there's still time" for immigration reform and that it is a "priority" for Republicans.
"We must pass immigration reform," McMorris Rodgers said.
A spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) indicated that immigration reform will be next on the House's agenda after the shutdown and the debt ceiling debates are resolved.

Obama to Allow Amnesty Rally on National Mall After Kicking Veterans Out

44 Comments

Last week, Barack Obama did a disgraceful thing in barricading the World War II Memorial and then later forcing Vietnam Veterans from the Vietnam Memorial. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid then attempted to blame the Republicans for the barricades. Now, on the very same Mall that those Memorials reside on, the Obama administration has decided to hold a massive rally for comprehensive immigration reform on Tuesday.

According to Charlie Spiering at the Washington Examiner:

A planned immigration reform rally will take place on the National Mall on Tuesday even though the site is closed due to the government shutdown.

Organizers for the "Camino Americano: March for Immigration Reform" were spotted Monday setting up a stage and equipment on the National Mall for the rally which will take place on Tuesday.

A few scattered barriers around the park have signs informing visitors that the area is closed as a result of the government shutdown.

Spiering writes that that Susana Flores, a spokesman for the rally confirmed that the group would be allowed to hold their event due to their rights, which are protected under the First Amendment. Well, Hell's Bells! Why are the veterans who fought to uphold the document that is supposed to protect such rights not given theirs?

On top of this, Lawmakers in Congress like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) are expected to be at the event, which is expecting about 10,000 people.

Various immigration activist organizations, along with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the AFL-CIO will be on hand as well.
This event is already a setup for more political theater. As Breitbart's Tony Lee writes:

Breitbart News has obtained emails in which an immigration campaign organizer for the Center for Community Change (CCC), a liberal grassroots organizing group working with a Hispanic advocacy group and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), sent an email this week asking for at least 200 people to to volunteer to get arrested at an immigration rally in Washington, D.C. in acts of civil disobedience.
…

The CCC email lists four ways supporters can help the the various pro-immigration reform advocacy groups on October 8:

House Republicans continue work on immigration reform, which we already know is going to be a disaster. Hopefully it will be better than the Senate version, but the pressure to cave on the issue is mounting, just like it is on Obamacare.

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), chairwoman of the House Republican conference, told Univision on Sunday "there's still time" for immigration reform and that it is a "priority" for Republicans.

"We must pass immigration reform," McMorris Rodgers said.

According to a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), immigration reform is next on the agenda following the government shutdown and debt ceiling debates.

The fact that a push for amnesty for people who are in this country illegally is being allowed on the National Mall, while veterans who fought and bled are turned away is beyond repulsive. This is nothing more than the Obama administration rubbing the people's noses in his tyranny. I'm wondering just how long it will be until those in our military realize a domestic enemy of the Constitution resides in the White House and there are many of his comrades in Congress. When will the oath apply to defend the Constitution against such enemies?

I have heard that this might actually be an Occupy DC that they only intend to leave if amnesty is passed.
