Thread: These Senators Still Waffling on Vote on DREAM Amnesty

These Senators Still Waffling on Vote on DREAM Amnesty

(September 21) Today, the Senate is debating H.R. 1585, the Defense Department authorization bill for fiscal year 2008. At some point during the debate, open-borders senators may attempt to attach three proposals that, when taken together, would grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens and dramatically increase the importation of foreign workers at a time 10 million Americans are looking for jobs and can't find employment.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has not announced when a vote will occur on the DREAM Act amnesty amendment (now SA 2919). Reid did announce, however, that no more votes will occur this week, and that the Senate will hold only one vote today on an unrelated defense matter. In other words, any potential vote on SA 2919 will not occur until next week.

It will take 41 NO votes to kill this amnesty. Currently, only 21 Senators are telling their constituents that they will vote NO on the amnesty.

The following Senators have made a firm commitment to vote NO on SA 2919, the DREAM Act amnesty amendment (Refresh page to ensure you have most up-to-date list.)
