Amnesty Betrays Ohio
Congress is preparing to grant amnesty to 11 million illegal aliens, and grant lifetime work visas to another 22 million foreign workers. Amnesty advocates in Congress are working with the media to make this seem inevitable. That could cause some in Congress who might vote against amnesty to crumble under pressure. We need to show our elected officials that Americans will not accept excuses for passing an amnesty!
Please send the fax below. In one step, you'll send a message to President Obama, Ohio Gov. Kasich, Senators Portman and Brown, and your local U.S. Representative. It is already paid for; we only need your authorization to send it.

Dear [each elected official's name goes here],
I oppose the Senate Gang of Eight's amnesty proposal to legalize millions of illegal immigrants, in this time of budget deficit crisis and high unemployment.
Combined with current laws, the legalization would be a pathway to massive new welfare expenditures, job competition, chain migration and more illegal immigration.
1. It would cost trillions of dollars in extra government spending on social services.
2. It would immediately put millions of illegal aliens in front of the employment line to hold or take U.S. jobs while 20 million Americans who want a full-time job can't find one.
3. It would allow amnestied aliens to begin endless chains of relatives to come and add further competition for jobs and government resources.
4. It would immediately legalize 11 million illegal aliens without requiring triggers that fully implement enforcement first. The previous seven amnesties between 1986 and 2000 had no enforcement triggers and served only to entice 11 million new illegal immigrants who now demand their own amnesty.
Sincerely,
(Your Name Will Appear Here).

First of all NumbersUSA is 'non-partisan' the same way that the tea party is 'non-partisan'. There may be a Democrat out there who carries their water or one that they support over a republican challenger, but I have not seen it.
The far-right has been dismayed that the current immigration reform debate has not generated the level of 'anti-amnesty' fervor that happened in 2007. From my reading, they are hopeful that this will change when the Senate begins to discuss and vote on the bill and, even more, when the House with its republican majority and strong tea party influence takes up the issue. This email may be the beginning of their effort to recreate the 2007 wave of republican opposition to immigration reform.
