Thread: TAKE A STAND

http://www.ConservativeAlerts.com/

I went here and wrote to my Senators of my State. Felt good to get it out.

My letter to our Senators. We all need to do that.

April 22, 2006

Dear [recipient name was inserted here],

As your constituent, I'm writing to ask you to please oppose ANY
"immigration bill" that includes ANY "guest worker" amnesty provisions,
and to STAND STRONG and "hold the line" on the Sensenbrenner immigration
bill that has already passed the House of Representatives.

Until the federal government is willing to enforce the immigration laws
that are already on the books, Americans will be highly skeptical of any
additional promises to enforce a new and deeply flawed approach.

If recent history is an accurate guide, this so-called guest worker notion
would only encourage a new wave of illegal aliens and make America's
uncontrolled and unacceptable immigration debacle even worse than it is
now.

Such legislation is a bad idea not only because it creates a transparent
path to amnesty, but also because it would reduce work opportunities,
depress wages, and lower worker protection for Americans. Further, it
would be impossible to administer and even more unlikely to be enforced.

The most important job you have to do right now is to SECURE OUR BORDER
against illegal immigration. Like millions of Americans, I'm sick and
tired of the "inside the beltway" politics on this issue; I will listen to
NO MORE weasel words or slick excuses.

This issue is BLACK OR WHITE - there are NO "shades of gray." We need you
to pass TRUE border security legislation, such as the Sensenbrenner bill
already passed by the House. Please, oppose ANY "immigration bill" that
includes ANY "guest worker" amnesty provisions, and "hold the line" on the
Sensenbrenner immigration bill.

It is true that our country is made up of immigrants. But our ancestors
came here the legal way. They did not sneak across rivers, borders or
through tunnels nor were they smuggled in. They went through the legal
process and became US citizens according to the letter of the law. They
abided by our Constitution (no matter what kind of piece of paper it is)
If it was good enough for our ancestors, it is good enough for ANYONE who
wishes to come to the USA to live. No vote is worth giving our country
away to ILLEGAL ALIENS. We (the American people, WHO BELONG HERE) are
seeing our country being given away for ILLEGAL votes. This is NOT what
our ancestors had in mind when they battled and gave their lives so that
we could be free. I am deeply ashamed of our government for listening to
the voices of the ILLEGAL Aliens instead of listening to the voices of law
abiding, American citizens who belong in this country.

I fly my US Flag proudly, not upside down UNDER another country's flag
that does NOT belong here. ILLEGAL means just that........ILLEGAL. If we,
the LEGAL American citizens, are expected to live by laws that are in
place, then by all means, the ILLEGALS should be made to live by those
SAME laws. I am seeing one set of laws for the LEGALS and another set for
the ILLEGALS. That will start a Civil War. Trust me. Is that what our
government is wanting? If it is, then it won't take much longer to happen.
A lot of people are seeing this very same thing coming down. The ILLEGALS
are here to take over our county. The government might be willing to allow
this to happen, but the LEGAL citizens WON'T. NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT. AND WE
WILL FIGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY, even if we have to do it without our
government's support. Our country means something to us.


I will be watching your vote on this issue very closely. Your vote on this
issue determines my vote during the next election. Whose votes mean more
to our government? Thank you.

Sincerely,

Well done.

That is a great letter. Lets hope they actually read them.

Whoa...NICE!

Anything to get the message across. Feel free. It sure felt good to get that much of that off my chest. I just hope and pray a lot more writes to their congressmen and senators. Let's let them know we are about at our wits end with all this crap that are handing us. I felt I did my part there. Going to write some more of them. After all, they go back in this coming week folks. So let's get to writing. Let them know how you feel. Let them know exactly where you stand on this. What they going to do, lock all of us up for expressing our opinions? I think not. Look at what all the Illegals are saying and getting away with. We all just need to band together and let them hear from us. I've already sent a bunch of faxes to them. They can't ignore the weight of the American people if we all pull together. Better than sitting and doing nothing.
It's not just Republicans, it's Democrats too. They have all created this problem together. So keep that in mind when writing to them. Show them where you stand. Let our government know WE LOVE OUR COUNTRY AND ARE WILLING TO FIGHT FOR WHAT OUR ANCESTORS FOUGHT FOR. We cannot sit back and be wimps at this time. Spread the word and lets get to writing. This is our country. They do not have the right to tell us we HAVE to give it away. We do have a say as to what happens to our own country. Regardless of what our government thinks.

Well written!

I have sent more Emails, Faxes, and letters to Washington Reps in the past two weeks than I have before in my entire life. Hope they are getting the idea that my vote goes to the ones that support "real" border security and tough penalties for employers of illegals.

Me too. Anywhere from 6 to 20+ a day. Sometimes to every state. Tonight I sent them for my entire family as well. In 2 states.......
