Wow! Thanks for posting that Sammy. That's just what we need - allow
hard working ambitious students to get citizenship so they'll stay here
and pay into the the Social Security system. Without them, the SS
system will go broke.

CONGRESS TO VOTE ON AMNESTY FOR ANCHOR BABIES THIS WEEK

Tell Congress not to pass Amnesty for Illegals.

Alert: President Bush's comprehensive immigration reform, defeated in June,
will make a second appearance this week when the Senate takes up various
pro-amnesty amendments submitted to the Department of Defense funding bill,
H.R. 1585, which is scheduled for debate.

While not "comprehensive" reform, the latest initiative attempts to pass key
provisions of the earlier immigration measure piece by piece by attaching
amendments to unrelated bills, a process critics characterize as "stealth."

Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin, D-Ill., has re-introduced another
version of his "Dream Act," this time as an amendment (SA 2237) to the DOD
funding bill.

The Dream Act would grant citizenship status to certain illegal aliens under
16 years of age who are pursuing college degrees and would allow them to
receive in-state college tuition rates on an equal basis with U.S. citizens.

The Dream Act amendment allows an illegal alien to remain in the U.S. on a
track headed for citizenship, provided:

1. The illegal alien can demonstrate continuous presence in the U.S. for
five years and was not yet 16 years old upon initial entry;

2. The illegal alien is of "good moral character" and is not inadmissible on
criminal grounds or because the illegal alien is a national security risk;
an

3. The illegal alien has been admitted to an institution of higher
education, has attained a high school diploma, or has obtained a GED in the
U.S.
