Should ILLEGAL aliens be entitled to receive Social Security benefits? According to the United States Senate, the answer is "YES!" "ILLEGALS GRANTED SOCIAL SECURITY" That was a front-page headline in Friday's Washington Times. According to Times reporter Charlie Hurt, "The Senate voted yesterday to allow illegal aliens to collect Social Security benefits based on past illegal employment -- even if the job was obtained through forged or stolen documents." This is what happened... As the Senate continued to debate immigration reform legislation this week, Senator John Ensign offered an amendment that would have prevented illegal aliens who engaged in unlawful activity within the Social Security system from receiving benefits. The Senate effectively DEFEATED the Ensign amendment by a vote of 50-49 ! You can view the actual roll call vote here. After the vote, Senator Ensign stated: "There was a felony they were committing, and now they can't be prosecuted. That sounds like amnesty to me... It just boggles the mind how people could be against this amendment." He's right! Idiocy like this is just the very reason why we MUST bombard Senate and House fax machines with letters demanding NO REWARDS and NO AMNESTY for illegal aliens -- Period! The American people overwhelmingly want secure borders first! Let's drive that message home. Use the hyperlink below to send your URGENT Blast Faxes to President Bush and the Republican and Democrat leaders of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Tell them that President Bush's speech to the American people on Monday evening is not a free ticket for THEM to pull the wool over our eyes and move full speed ahead with plans to grant amnesty to more than 10 million illegal aliens while our backs are turned and our attention is diverted. Demand that they suspend debate on any and all amnesty provisions once and for all. Demand they focus solely on securing the border! http://www.cfiflistmanager.org/amnestytennm.html AOL Members Use This Hyperlink If the above hyperlink does not function, please copy and paste it into the address bar of your browser. The Senate Is Poised To Pass Amnesty At this very moment, the U.S. Senate is poised to pass a so-called "immigration reform bill" that would give amnesty and eventual citizenship to more than 10 million illegal aliens. During his televised address to the nation on Monday night, President Bush talked about securing the border (some of the ideas were better than others). Yet, the Senate appears to be using his words as political cover to reward more than 10 million people who are living and working in our country illegally with some of the same rights we enjoy as American citizens. In fact, some Senators are actually hoping and praying that the President's words will placate you and lull you into a false sense of security so they can go full steam ahead with plans to grant amnesty to over 10 million illegal aliens... under the cover of darkness... while your back is turned! WE CAN'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT! You and I stopped the Senate from passing a "scamnesty" bill before. We can do it again! But we MUST act now, because Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist has VOWED to have this "scamnesty" bill passed before Memorial Day!

What's The Senate Up To? The Senate has gone back to square one and is attempting to pass the same old "scamnesty" legislation that you stopped them from passing just a couple of weeks ago! Don't believe it? Consider the following report from the Internet news site, The Conservative Voice:
Here's a recent passage from an article published by NewsMax.com that should further illustrate the point:
And Congressman Tom Tancredo expressed skepticism as well, telling ABC News on Friday that while he did not want to be "cynical" he believed that, "once the debate is over, we'll go back to business as usual."

In case you haven't looked carefully at the Senate bill, here are a few consequences of passing the Senate bill that you may not have heard about on ABC, CBS, NBC, or read about in The New York Times. In a shocking new report by the Heritage Foundation, Robert Rector observes that the Senate's "immigration reform plan" would:
You can be certain every Senator on Capitol Hill has received a copy of this report. So why do they want to jeopardize the safety of their country in the face of such strong evidence -- and contrary to the will of the American people? Do they believe we don't care about our country? Let's show them WE DO! Use the hyperlink below to send your URGENT Blast Faxes to President Bush and the Republican and Democrat leaders of the Senate and the House of Representatives.

And Just What Are The American People Saying? A May, 2006 Zogby poll reports the following:
Yet rumors abound that Speaker of the House, Denny Hastert, is about to capitulate and buy the Senate version. What's going on here? Why are Republicans retreating from their best bet for a winning issue in November? Is it sickening cowardice or are they really that beholden to agribusiness and other mega-rich employers? Whatever the reason, they're proceeding full steam ahead because they don't believe you and I care enough to punish them for selling out their country. Let's let them know just how wrong they are! If enough of us demand that they back off, we can stop the Senate in its tracks -- just as we did before.
