Amnesty Bill I (S. 1348) was 326 pages long. The new “improved” Amnesty Bill II (S. 1639) is 418 pages long. Almost 100 pages longer than the original. Yes, I am currently reading it, although I am sure, if it walks like a duck, it’s still a duck.

Sixteen of the amendments the Senate will consider attaching to Amnesty Bill II will come from senators who helped derail the previous legislation.

Hugh Hewitt has a list of the proposed amendments and Kathryn Jean Lopez has the list of Senate targets.

Kevin Ecker has more on those fires Americans won’t light.

If you missed it, here is the link to Newt Gingrich’s comments on the Amnesty Bill. You can also read his ten simple steps to a better immigration system.

Patterico has a great series of posts titled, Deport The Criminals First.

Trent Lott and his backbone are still tied to the mast of a sinking ship.

If the Amnesty Bill reaches the House, Democrats say they may break the immigration issue into a series of smaller bills.

Thomas reminds us about the wild, wild, border, while Jessica Alba reminds us that most legal immigrants don’t have a problem with assimilation.

Noam Askew is keeping us updated on the 60 votes needed for cloture. It’s not just conservatives who are against this bill.

Meanwhile, members of the House, Lamar Smith (R-TX) and Peter King (R-N.Y) more specifically, are doing what they can to stop the Amnesty Bill in its tracks.

If you’re outraged, it’s time to speak up and help us avoid a national security nightmare.

Unless your senators hear from you, they won’t know how you feel about the Amnesty Bill. Please, take a moment out of your day to contact your senators or send them a fax. Urge them to oppose this measure and support enforcing our current immigration laws. When you’re done calling them, call the National Republican Senatorial Committee at (202) 675-6000 and let them know you won’t support the reelection of any senator who votes for this bill. Then call the Republican National Committee at (202) 863-8500 (option 1) and tell them the same thing. You should also contact the White House and tell the President that, as an American, you do, in fact, know what’s right for America.

Save your country now!
