  This Issue: Senate Committee defeats all amendments to substantially improve enforcement and the bill


The Senate Judiciary Committee is about a third of the way through its markup of the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill, S.744, and after three long markups and about 80 amendments considered, the bill remains Amnesty First, Enforcement Maybe Later. Read Roy's blog for more details.
On Thursday, there were multiple opportunities to make E-Verify more effective. Sen. Chuck Grassley introduced two amendments that would have: 1) required mandatory use of E-Verify by all employers within 18 months and 2) delayed the preemption clause allowing states that have passed mandatory E-Verify laws to continue enforcing them. Both amendments were rejected by the Committee.
During Tuesday's markup, most of the attention centered around an amendment offered by Sen. Jeff Sessions that would have reduced the number of green cards granted in the bill's first 10 years from about 33 million to 23 million -- still double the number of green cards issued over the last 10 years. Sen. Sessions was the only 'yes' vote; the other 17 Senators on the committee all voted 'no.' Read more about the Sessions' amendment in my blog.
The committee did accept a handful of amendments that were improvements but generally around the margins and of minor consequence compared with the whole bill. And the committee also rejected a few amendments that would have made the bill even worse.
Here's a list of the noteworthy amendments from the two markups this week:
Sessions #4 - Requires completion of biometric entry-exit system at all ports of entry -- defeated
Grassley #67 - Requires annual audits of at least 1% of all firms receiving H-1B or L visas --- defeated
Cruz #5 - Increases the number of annual H-1B visas from 110,000 to 325,000 -- defeated
Grassley #60 - Requires companies to make a good-faith effort to hire Americans before applying for H-1B visas -- defeated
Sessions #13 - Requires aliens who may be a threat to national security to have an in-person interview when applying for a visa -- passed
Grassley #69 - Strengthen requirements for Student Exchange Visitors Program -- passed
Sessions #6 - Prevent amendments to the visa waiver program from taking effect until biometric exit-entry system is completed -- defeated
Grassley #77 - Requires data from student and exchange visitor program transferred to Border Patrol -- passed
Franken #2 - Requires Inspector General to conduct annual audits of E-Verify rate -- passed
Grassley #31 -- Requires USCIS to create a weekly report of E-Verify nonconfirmations and send to ICE -- passed
Coons #1 - Require USCIS to contact individual when they're run through E-Verify -- passed
Grassley #38 - Allows parents/guardians to lock their children's Social Security numbers -- passed
Grassley #34 - Modify definition of identity theft to include making up a SS number -- defeated
The committee gets back to work on Monday and hopes to pass it before the Memorial week recess, so the full Senate can take it up in June.

Sen. Flake Called Out for Overstating Role of Border Security Commission
Last week, Sen. Marco Rubio sprinted to the airwaves to defend the Gang of Eight's legislation after it had been attacked during the first round of committee markup, but his description of the bill wasn't exactly accurate. Continuing that trend, A Gang of Eight member who also sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Jeff Flake, wasn't exactly accurate himself in his description of the bill's "triggers" when they came under attack from Senators John Cornyn and Jeff Sessions on Thursday.

Six House Reps. Denounce Gang of Eight Amnesty Bill
If you have ever doubted the "skills shortage" claims favored by the "Gang of Eight," President Obama, and the billionaire tech lobby, turn to the technology and business section of your newspaper. Wage suppression doesn't sell well in Washington - or with the public, for that matter - so the billionaire tech lobby has instead appealed for better access to foreign workers on the grounds that there isn't enough talent in the United States to meet their demands. But segments of the media have begun to speak truth to power.

SENATE COMMITTEE VOTE ON ANNUAL IMMIGRATION LEVELS SHOWS THEIR DISCONNECT WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
Last week, Gallup asked Americans if they approve of the job that Congress is doing. Not surprisingly, only 16% said they did. Yesterday's vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Sen. Jeff Sessions' amendment to reduce the legal immigration levels proposed in the Gang of Eight's bill is a prime example of why that support is so low.

U.S. Engineer Association Urges Senate Committee Not to Increase H-1B Visas
As the Senate Judiciary Committee prepares to review the guest-worker provisions of the Gang of Eight's amnesty bill, a national association consisting of electrical and electronics engineers is urging Congress to leave the H-1B visa quotas alone. The IEEE issued a statement on Monday to reject amendments that would further increase the number of H-1B visas issued each year and amendments that would weaken worker protections.

4/19/13- Sign the petition and get a Free Bumper Sticker : ' Stop Censoring The News ! '

Free bumper sticker when you sign the petition!

WARNING! SOME OF THE INFORMATION BELOW WILL BE DISTURBING TO MOST DECENT HUMAN BEINGS—BUT IT IS THE TRUTH.
An editorial in the Investor's Business Daily titled "Newtown in the Clinic: Media Ignore the Gosnell Trial" said:
"Media Bias: A basketball coach who shoves and curses at his players merits constant coverage by a media also transfixed by Newtown. But a Philadelphia doctor on trial for murdering a woman and seven babies? It's ignored.
"Those who get their news from the three major networks have probably not heard of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, now on trial in Philadelphia, charged with seven counts of first-degree murder and one count of third-degree murder for killing seven babies who survived abortions and a woman who died after a botched pain-killer injection . . .
"According to the Media Research Center, in one week Rice received 41 minutes, 26 seconds of air time on ABC, CBS and NBC in 36 separate news stories. Gosnell received zero coverage . . .
"If Dr. Gosnell had walked into a nursery and shot seven infants with an AR-15, it would be national news and the subject of presidential hand-wringing."
In the April 11 edition of USA Today, columnist Kirsten Powers writes:
"Infant beheadings. Severed baby feet in jars. A child screaming after it was delivered alive during an abortion procedure. Haven't heard about these sickening accusations?
"It's not your fault. Since the murder trial of Pennsylvania abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell began March 18, there has been precious little coverage of the case that should be on every news show and front page."
She goes on to point out: "A Lexis-Nexis search shows none of the news shows on the three major national television networks has mentioned the Gosnell trial in the last three months. The exception is when Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan hijacked a segment on Meet the Press."
A letter sent by Media Research Center President Brent Bozell and 20 prominent leaders calls on the broadcast networks to stop censoring coverage of the trial, pointing out that as of April 4, since the trial began, ABC, CBS, and NBC have given the story zero coverage in their morning and evening news shows.
It is clear why the liberal media would not want this story to get out—because it would expose the American people to the truth about the horrific and ghastly practices of abortionists and compel everyone with a sense of decency to call for an end to such practices. But that is in direct opposition to the liberal media's agenda—and that is why they won't cover it.
So now, it's up to us. We need you to stand with us. If you are disgusted and outraged by this blatant censoring of the news—the deliberate blocking of the truth of this horrifying case of abortionist and alleged murderer Dr. Kermit Gosnell—then we urge you to let your voice be heard.
Stand with us, stand up for the countless victims of these gruesome deaths, and stand for truth by signing our petition to ABC, CBS, and NBC to demand that they stop censoring the news and tell the truth.
I, the undersigned, hereby demand that the media stop censoring the news. The American people deserve to hear the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I stand with the Media Research Center to demand that we get it!

Lindsey Graham: Obama's Biggest Ally,One thing is certain: we've had enough. Western Representation PAC is making Lindsey Graham's defeat top priority in the 2014 primary season.

Lindsey Graham: Obama's Biggest Ally

Tuesday, April 9, 2013 9:48 AM
From:





Dear Patriot,

Did you see Lindsey Graham on Meet the Press Sunday? He went on national television to say that there are portions of Obama's budget that he can get behind.

It's obvious that Lindsey Graham is paving the way for Barack Obama's budget to pass the Senate with Republican support, putting pressure on the House of Representatives to capitulate.

The true danger to the conservative movement isn't in liberals like Barack Obama and Harry Reid - it's in so-called Republicans like Lindsey Graham.



Lindsey Graham: Obama's biggest ally

One thing is certain: we've had enough. Western Representation PAC is making Lindsey Graham's defeat top priority in the 2014 primary season.

We're going to highlight some of Lindsey Graham's biggest offenses, and we're going to need your help. Graham has the backing of very powerful, and very wealthy, special interests in Washington. All of our backing, though, comes from people like you.

If you think Lindsey Graham is a threat to the conservative movement and must be defeated, make a donation --HERE--

Sincerely,

Dustin Stockton
