Thread: Nightmare vote Sat. Here's what else you can do

DREAM Act vote on Saturday! What else can you do?
The Senate will vote on the House-passed version of the DREAM Act on Saturday morning. Sixty votes are required for passage, and if passed, the bill will head to Pres. Obama's desk for final approval.



The DREAM Act is a mass amnesty bill that would allow up to 2.1 million illegal aliens to apply for the amnesty. Once amnesties, illegal aliens would receive immediate work authorization and would compete with 22 million unemployed Americans for jobs.



Once an illegal alien applies, they have 10 years to meet the educational or military requirements. In those 10 years, they are safe from deportation and have almost all the privileges granted to legal permanent residents.



To qualify for full permanent residency, they only have to complete the equivalent of two years of college work. They don't need to obtain a degree.

Byron L. Dorgan Dear Friends:

It has been my honor to serve my state and country for the last thirty years in the U.S. Congress. As I move to the next chapter in my career I invite you to friend me on my personal facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/pro......file.php?id=1205207766.

Jeez! TS I'm almost done I've been calling since 5:30 this mornin' office's didn't open till 9 "Hi could you ask the Senator to please stick the dream act strait up his BEEP and tell him/her to go BEEP themselves! thanks"

Facebook contact is a great idea. A good number of these congressmen/women pack their lap tops around with them. This could be a faster communication.
