Late yesterday, NumbersUSA sent out an Action Alert. Below is a lightly edited copy of the Alert:
RED ALERT! AMNESTY THREAT!
Republican faction working with Democrats to force vote on Amnesty-only bills, need only 7 more GOP signatures
Majority Whip Scalise pushes Goodlatte bill instead.
… some renegade House Republicans are … trying to force votes on an Amnesty-only bill, using a “discharge petition.” If they can get one half of all Representatives to sign — all Democrats plus just twenty-five Republicans — they can pass an Amnesty-only bill, despite Speaker Paul Ryan’s objections.
Already 18 House Republicans have signed the discharge petition that will force a vote on several Amnesty bills. They have only 7 Republican signatures to go!! We have to intervene right now!!
Make your calls [phone numbers appended below]. Send your messages. This fight could be over in just a few days.
If these renegade House Republicans get their intended outcome, there will be no end to chain migration. Annual migration will continue at one million per year.
Businesses will be able to hire illegal workers. The Trump administration will be forced to continue catch-and-release, while migrants play games with our asylum system.The visa lotterywill continue. And enforcement of our immigration laws will likely continue to be handicapped by open-borders activist judges.
Remember, people who want amnesties are ever watchful. If we nod off for five minutes, they’re on us.
You may be asking yourself, “How could something this awful come up so quickly?” A little background:
For a couple of weeks, Rep. Jeff Denham (R-CA) has said he would try to force a vote on Amnesty bills. Why? He may lose his re-election race this fall, and he and other immigration-expansionist Republicans are anxious to burnish their Amnesty-loving credentials. Just about every House Democrat appears ready to support this move, if there are enough Republican votes.
[NumbersuSA’s] Rosemary Jenks denounced the discharge petition in the press: “There is a small group of so-called Republicans in the House who are willing to destroy the Republican Party in a delusional attempt to safeguard their own seats. It is lunacy, absolute lunacy,” she said.
She continued, “How is assisting a big fat amnesty with zero enforcement — while we are in the middle of a border crisis! — [going to] help them get reelected?They are delusional. It is a slap in the face to [GOP] leadership, assuming that leadership does not want to pass a big fat amnesty and that is not a very safe assumption.”
The discharge petition would force a resolution to the floor that would allow votes on several proposed DREAM-style Amnesties. Even if a goodcompromise bill were to get a majority, the bill with the most votes would be sent to the Senate.
The good news is that House Majority Whip Steve Scalise is pushing back against the insurrection. “We have a regular process that we’ve been working through and Goodlatte-McCaul, I still think, is the right answer to the problem — I’m a co-sponsor of the bill,” he said.
As reported in Politicoearlier today, Speaker Ryan urged fellow Republicans to draft a bill in line with the White House’s immigration priorities: “We actually want to solve this problem, so that’s why we want to come up with a solution that the president will support.”
Here are the numbers for GOP House Leadership team:
House Speaker Paul Ryan — (202) 225-0600
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy — (202) 225-4000
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise — (202) 225-0197
House Republican Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers — (202) 225-5107
