On Thursday, the Senate is set to pass the "Gang of 8" amnesty legislation. The bill provides for legalization of 11 million illegal immigrants in 6 months and contains a host of provisions promising to secure the border sometime in the future. There will be three votes today to pass the legislation.

The Senate will convene at 9:30am to continue debate on the amnesty bill. At around 11:30am, the Senate will go "off" the bill to vote to confirm Anthony Foxx as the next Transportation Secretary. After that vote, the Senate will vote to formally adopt the Schumer-Corker-Hoeven amendment as the Committee substitute to the Gang of 8 bill. This vote requires a simple majority.

The Bill:

-Grants immediate amnesty to 11-15 million illegal immigrants and their dependents (estimates of up to 33 million during the next decade).

-Ensures the mass firing and displacement of up to 1 million unskilled, low-wage American workers from their jobs by exempting amnestied immigrants from Obamacare and thus employers from any fines.

-Creates a decade of lower wage growth and more unemployment according to the CBO's own estimates.

-Caps the number of 'guest worker' visas thus ensuring a steady flow of MORE illegal immigrants into the United States and even greater problem further down the line.

-More than doubles the number of H1-B's from 65,000 to 150,000 a year for Zuckerberg and co.

-Authorizes up to $40bn to be spent on border agents at some time in the future with no guarantee's of "secure" border.

-Creates a slew of new bureaucracies, regulations, fee's and fines.

-The potential for a national ID card under the guise of "e-verify" meaning an already out of control government can bar anyone from jobs or professions.

The ONLY way to defeat this horrific bill is to make sure your CONGRESSMAN hears from you. Forget your senator. You need to contact your CONGRESSMAN and you need to encourage your friends and colleagues to do exactly the same.
