What just happened: <\/b>This afternoon,\u00a068 Senators voted to pass S. 744.\u00a0(Click here for the full roll call.<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The bad news: <\/b>If eventually signed into law, this bill would threaten to knock millions of Americans out of the middle class by flooding their occupations with 33 million foreign citizens who are offered lifetime work permits over the next decade. Can you believe 68 U.S. Senators voted for that?<\/p>\n

The willingness of every single Democratic Senator and almost a third of Republicans to accept the corporate lobbyists’ insistence that our country faces devastating labor shortages is disheartening to all of us who have fought so hard to protect the 20 million Americans who can’t find a full-time job, and the millions more who have seen their real wages declining for decades during a worker surplus.<\/p>\n

Can you believe 68 U.S. Senators voted for that?<\/p>\n

The willingness of every single Democratic Senator and almost a third of Republicans to accept the corporate lobbyists’ insistence that our country faces devastating labor shortages is disheartening to all of us who have fought so hard to protect the 20 million Americans who can’t find a full-time job, and the millions more who have seen their real wages declining for decades during a worker surplus.<\/p>\n

What’s next, and the good news about your efforts thus far: <\/b>Now, we must turn our full efforts to the U.S. House of Representatives and another huge grassroots effort in July. But this will be only a three-week fight before the month-long August recess.<\/p>\n

There is no question that the five-month opposition that all of you have waged is having good results in the House, where the Senate bill is facing an increasingly hostile reception.<\/p>\n

If the House refuses to move a giant overall amnesty, it doesn’t matter what the Senate has done.<\/p>\n

Your efforts have been phenomenal: <\/b>Over the last few months, you have been faxing your Representatives and going to their offices, even as you focused primary attention on Senators. Republican Representatives have watched the incredible grassroots opposition to the 14 Republican Senators who broke with the rest of their Party and supported Pres. Obama’s top priority for the year.<\/p>\n

Just today, Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Illinois), a member of the House Republican leadership, told reporters,<\/p>\n

“It is a pipe dream to think that that (Senate) bill is going to go to the (House) floor and be voted on. The House is going to move through in a more deliberative process.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For months, the open-borders lobby and their supporters in the news media have proclaimed that citizens were not speaking against this amnesty anything close to the way they did in 2007.<\/p>\n

Your efforts back in 2007 to mobilize against that amnesty effort has become the stuff of legend around Washington. But I’m so proud to tell you that over the last five months — especially the past two weeks —\u00a0you smashed the old records for activism! You’ve sent millions of faxes and made hundreds of thousands of phone calls into congressional offices.<\/b><\/p>\n

For example, Republican Bob Corker, the Senator who rescued the S. 744 amnesty from defeat last week with a fig-leaf border control amendment, admitted on the floor this morning that the bill is extremely unpopular back in his state of Tennessee.<\/p>\n

All of us at NumbersUSA thank you U.S. citizens for everything you have done thus far. And we thank you for all Americans who will benefit if the House blocks the incredibly harmful provisions of S. 744.<\/p>\n

Every single Democratic Senator voted YES to the amnesty and to the arguments of corporate lobbyists<\/b> that a nation with 20 million Americans unable to find full-time jobs is desperately in need of 33 million new lifetime work permits for foreign citizens over the next decade.<\/p>\n

And these Republican Senators voted YES to the same provisions,<\/b> breaking with the majority of their Party (32 Senators)\u00a0and all four of their Senate Party leaders:<\/b><\/p>\n

REMEMBER THESE NAMES!\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
