Priority Alert.........Dream act.

There is a new action alert for Today & new amendment number for Dream act.I think everyone should emphasize the military option as much as possible when they call,the vote could come today.It also appears that Hatch is now apart of the co-sponsor group on Dream act.

Quote:

There's a good chance the DREAM Act amendment (now numbered SA 2919) to the Defense Department authorization bill for fiscal year 2008 (HR 1585) will be introduced on the Senate floor Thursday during debate.

If the amendment gets attached to this "must pass' appropriations bill it is guaranteed to go through.

But we must make sure it passes the floor vote and becomes part of the legislation.

The wingnuts are out in force once again trying to kill this amendment.

They have mobilized their army of flying monkeys and instructed them to relentlessly continue to contact the Senate through calls, faxes (supplied free via Numbers USA) and e-mail.

During the last round of Immigration Reform legislation, the wingnuts flooded the Senate with over a million faxes from Numbers USA alone … not to mention the millions of phone calls and e-mails sent by flying monkeys mobilized by wingnut talk radio and TV personalities .

And they are trying to do it again

DON'T ALLOW THE FLYING MONKEYS TO KILL THE DREAM ACT

Starting 9 AM Thursday morning start calling, faxing and e-mailing.

20 Senators have come out officially opposing this amendment so far…so don't any waste time on them.

Alabama: Sessions; Shelby
Georgia: Chambliss; Isakson
Kansas: Roberts
Kentucky: Bunning; McConnell
Louisiana: Vitter
Mississippi: Lott
Missouri: Bond
North Carolina: Burr; Dole
Oklahoma: Coburn; Inhofe
South Carolina: DeMint; Graham
