This is an urgent message (below) from Bay Buchanan. We need desperately to focus our efforts on our Federal elected Reps.

All this stuff on the local level with day -laborers and stuff is fine but will not stop amnesty! In fact all of our efforts on a local level will be for nothing.

Calls to the Senate are fine and need to continue but in reality this is already decided. Floor votes are nothing but an inconvenient formality.

Rove and his gang are already well into the lobbying effort in the House. He would not risk a vote unless he is convinced of winning!

We are chasing the tail!

We need to draw battle lines and face this thing before it's too late. Too late may be sometime next week.

The McCain/Kennedy Amnesty could go to the Senate Floor Monday or Tuesday at which time go into a secret conference committee. We will have no advanced notice of when it will come out for a vote. It could be over within hours before anyone can react.

Dear Friend,

I have some bad news on our immigration battle and wanted to get it to you as soon as possible.

Next Monday the plan is for the Senate Judiciary Committee to meet and ram through their back room deal with little or no debate. We expect they may send the bill to the Senate floor on Monday!

The best we can tell now is that this bill, which is being put together by Senator Kennedy and Senator Specter’s staffs this week, behind closed doors, will give amnesty to all 12 million illegal aliens they believe are here now. (Our number is closer to 20 million.)

Our hope was that Senator Frist will substitute his bill, which he himself has called an enforcement only bill as recently as last month, for the Kennedy/McCain/Specter amnesty bill.

Here is the really bad news. While Senator Frist’s bill has little to no amnesty in it, it is NOT an enforcement only bill. It more than doubles green cards—it would take our legal immigration numbers from 1 million to over 2 million a year!!

If you take the two bills out 10 years, Kennedy/McCain/Specter would legalize 25 million foreigners during the next decade and Frist would legalize over 20 million! And the Frist bill goes on forever with those huge annual numbers.

Both bills would be disastrous for a country!!

And these numbers don’t include the increase in H1B visas and the like.
Kennedy’s bill wants to take the 65,000 that come in today and increase it to 165,000 annually—a 100,000 more a year! That’s nothing compared to Frist’s plan. He wants to increase these visas by 400,000, so nearly 500,000 foreigners could come take American jobs every year!!

These Senators are nuts!! They are bound and determined to destroy this nation. We have to stop them. Please get on the phones and don’t give up.

I am going down to the Senate right now to brief staffers on the political fallout of these bills. Please pray I am able to reach them. We must stop these bills from becoming law!

Thanks for all your help,
Bay
