Immigration debate in Senate
Today I sent the following message to my Senators. I hope you will consider doing the same.
Over the past few weeks I have phoned your office several times about the immigration reform debate. Recently I have been made aware that the immigration reform bill (S. 1348) has been reintroduced under a new bill number, S 1639. Introduced by Senator Kennedy of Massachusetts, S. 1639 contains all the same provisions that I was opposed to in S. 1348. Namely, S. 1639 would:
- Create the Z visa which would place millions of illegal immigrants on a path toward citizenship
- Establish an enhanced guestworker program that would displace American workers
- Call for the acceleration of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America - an agenda backed by President Bush that would eventually merge the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, into a common "North American Community"
I hope that you will express your opposition to this Senate bill and any other legislation that would promote and/or provide amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants. We have legislation in place that would keep illegal immigrants from crossing into our country. We should enforce the current legislation.
Thanks, John
