Updated: 10/15/07) Michelle Malkin: Anti-sanctuary measure in the Senate; DREAM Act resurrected

From Numbers USA:

Wednesday Cloture Vote Set For DREAM Act Amnesty Bill

Last night, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) filed to invoke cloture on S. 2205, Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin’s (D-Ill.) new stand-alone DREAM Act amnesty bill. The cloture vote, for which 60 YES votes are necessary to prevent a filibuster on the measure, is set for Wednesday, October 24. Reid is attempting to bring this nightmarish amnesty bill to the floor under Senate Rule XIV without it ever having been debated in committee…

It is imperative that NumbersUSA members call their senators today to ask them to vote NO on cloture for S. 2205.

Call your senators today to ask them to oppose the DREAM Act…

Word is out of a quickie move to add a DREAM amendment to a labor bill on the Senate floor either today or tomorrow. Read this now and ACT.

DON’T LET THEM SNEAK THIS THROUGH RESIST ALL ATTEMPTS TO GRANT AMNESTY TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!

From FAIR:

…The DREAM Act grants amnesty to illegal aliens who entered the U.S. before the age of 16 and have met certain educational requirements. Those who are granted amnesty under the bill may later on Petition the Department of Homeland Security to grant their parents legal status. And if past versions are an indicator, the amendment will have no caps on the numbers, no age limit on applicants, will allow “conditional legal permanent resident status” to be extended indefinitely, and will provide for retroactive benefits. We can also expect the amendment to authorize in-state tuition to illegal aliens and make illegal aliens who receive conditional LPR status eligible for federal financial aid.
