None of our elected officals in Utah are voting for this passage. I am calling and asking them why they are not voting on this.

McIntyre Supports SAVE Bill To Stop Illegal Immigration
Says, “Illegal Immigration must be addressed, stopped, and enforced!
Washington, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mike McIntyre is supporting legislation to stop illegal immigration by securing our borders, work authorization, and stronger enforcement here at home.
Congressman McIntyre, who participated in press conference on Capitol Hill today to unveil the legislation with his North Carolina colleague, Representative Heath Shuler, said, “Illegal immigration must be addressed, stopped, and enforced. We are a nation of laws. Illegal acts should not be rewarded. This comprehensive bill meets these key elements with real teeth, penalties, and resources. We should pass this bill now!â€

If this bill goes before the President for signing, will he sign it and not fund it, just like the fence? Or is funding done by some appropriations commitee? Check this thread out:

It all sounds to good to be true. I can't help thinking this all just a ploy. To easy. Why no penalties against sanctuary cities?

I copied and pasted from the dream act forum.

MOMENTUM IS BUILDING, FRIENDS,
I don't think we've ever seen an effort like this to stop illegal immigration -- 90 politicians putting Party politics aside to finally try to resolve a terrible problem.
The tough SAVE Act (H.R. 408 that we've been preparing you for was finally made public this week. This email will show you a number of ways that this represents a special opportunity.
For starters, here's what the nation saw revealed at the press conference:
TRULY BI-PARTISAN
* 44 Democratic signers
* 46 Republican signers
* Main author: A Democrat
* Standing with him at press conference & on TV shows:
Republican chairman of Immigration Reform Caucus
COMMITTEE LEADERS FROM BOTH PARTIES (committees and subcommittees)
* 17 Democrats who are House committee chairmen
* 22 Republicans who are Ranking committee Members
FROM ALL REGIONS
* 12 from the East
* 17 from the Midwest
* 20 from the West
* 41 from the South
FRESHMEN DEMS AND GOP RUSH TO BE ORIGINALS ON THIS BILL
Most bills are introduced with only a handful of original co-sponsors. The splash of co-sponsors on H.R. 4088 is really quite extraordinary.
Of the 435 Members of the U.S. House, 20% were original signers.
NEWLY ELECTED FRESHMEN ESPECIALLY EAGER TO BE SEEN AS LEADERS AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
* 42.5% of freshman Democrats signed
* 41.6% of freshman Republicans signed
It is clear that doing something about illegal immigration was a promise made to voters by most candidates a year ago who defeated incumbents or who won seats vacated by retiring Congressmen.
This crop of freshmen from both Parties has a much greater sense of urgency about the immigration issue than do the top leaders of their Parties.
These freshman Representatives want to become SOPHOMORE Representatives after next fall's elections.
And they know that means they at least have to be seen as having done what it takes to get some immigration enforcement passed.
* 52% of Democrats who defeated a Republican incumbent last year are original co-sponsors
And remember that this is just the beginning.
Now that the bill and its original signers have been made public, we can expect to see many more Members co-sponsoring -- especially if the users of NumbersUSA continue to fax and phone to pressure them.
Those of you responding to our Alerts the last two weeks have sent tens of thousands of faxes and made thousands of phone calls to Members informing them of the details of H.R. 4088. Please don't stop faxing/phoning if your Representative isn't on the list of original co-sponsors.

FASCINATING CONTRASTS AMONG THE ORIGINAL CO-SPONSORS
If anybody thinks that Members of Congress who support our goals of Attrition Through Enforcement are of one kind, take a look at this:
THE ORIGINAL CO-SPONSORS OF THIS BILL INCLUDE:
* 2 Members of the Congressional Black Caucus -- Rep. Davis (D-Ala.) and Rep. Bishop (D-Ga.).
* A Member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus -- Rep. Rodriguez (D-Texas).
* 2 GOP Presidential Candidates -- Rep. Tancredo (R-Colo.) and Rep. Hunter (R-Calif.)
* Environmentalist favorite, Rep. Udall (D-Colo.)
* Target of environmentalists, Rep. Doolittle (R-Calif.)
* Anti-war champion, Rep. Murtha (D-Pa.)
* Bush anti-terrorism supporter, Rep. Rohrabacher (R-Calif.)
* Sponsor of bill to end chain migration, Rep. Gringrey (R-Ga.)
* Sponsor of bill to end anchor baby policies, Rep. Deal (R-Ga.)
* Rep. Kanjorski (D-Pa.) with an F in NumbersUSA's amnesty grading
* Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) with an A amnesty grade, and a 20-year leader against amnesties
* 6 of 11 Democrats from Pennsylvania
* 4 of 5 Democrats from Tennessee
* 3 of 5 Democrats from Indiana, 3 of 6 from Georgia and 3 from New York
* 7 Republicans from California
* 5 of 6 Republicans from North Carolina, 5 of 6 from Georgia and 5 of 19 from Texas
* All 4 Republicans from Tennessee

UNUSUAL COALITION
FOR ENFORCEMENT-ONLY BILL
CREATES WIDE BUZZ
I was visiting with a Republican U.S. Senator and his staff in the Capitol this afternoon. They were in mild shock at what they were seeing over on the other side of Capitol Hill in the House of Representatives.
The first thing they said about the SAVE Act by Rep. Heath Shuler (D-N.C.) was that they couldn't remember a controversial bill being introduced in the House with a lot of co-sponsors that were divided nearly 50-50 between Parties. Generally, "bi-partisan" means a lot of co-sponsors from one party and a couple from the other. Or just a handful evenly divided. "What's going on over there."
Similar points were made on Lou Dobbs as he extolled the introduction of the SAVE Act to his prime time TV audience:
DOBBS: "A large group of Republicans and Democrats are now putting border security first. And they're doing it without amnesty. This is the truth. Honest. ..."
REP. CIRO RODRIGUEZ (D-TEXAS): "This team says it is now time to finally give the people what they've asked for in immigration and that is a bipartisan effort that addresses the issue and puts America's future first and puts partisan politics on the back row where it belongs. ... "

They can all make themselves look good and vote for this. then the President as we know him can veto it, thus giving him more time to join us as one big nation. One big nation with Bush as the President and Fox as the Vice President.
