Mitch McConnell Surrenders on Amnesty

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has surrendered in the fight to stop President Obama’s illegal executive amnesty, and now he’s working with Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) to force American taxpayers to fund the president’s lawlessness.

We predicted this would happen.

Senator McConnell’s plan to use the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill to stop the president’s amnesty was designed to fail from the beginning.

It was another bait and switch used to get Republicans to support the “cromnibus” bill last year. Senator McConnell never planned to keep his word.

TAKE ACTION NOW

Senator McConnell may have surrendered, but he can’t succeed without Republican support. Please call this list of senators as soon as possible.

The Senate could vote as early as TODAY on the McConnell-Reid plan that fully funds President Obama’s executive amnesty.

Defeating this sellout won’t be easy. We expect almost every Democrat to support it along with an unknown number of Republicans.

Also, Senator McConnell plans to “fill the tree” to block conservative amendments – a practice used by the Democrats that McConnell vowed not to repeat.

Please call these Republican senators right now and urge them to OPPOSE the McConnell-Reid amnesty sellout.

Please tell them not to use your tax dollars to pay for illegal amnesty.

If they say they don’t want to be blamed for a shutdown, please remind them that DHS will not shut down. Most of its employees are “essential.”

If they say the courts will stop the amnesty, please remind them that court decisions are often overturned and their action to fund the president’s action could undermine the legal case against it.

Also, Congress has a moral obligation to act. They swore an oath to defend the Constitution and it’s under attack.

Finally, please urge these senators to ignore Mitch McConnell’s desperate pleas for support.

Senator McConnell wants Republicans to support his amnesty sellout to give himself cover. This is what he does. In fact, he pressured countless Republicans to join him in supporting the Wall Street bailout and it ended many of their careers.

If Senator McConnell wants to work with President Obama and Senator Reid to destroy this country, he should be forced to do it alone.

Please call these senators right now.

Thank you for standing strong for liberty. We’ll keep fighting.
