CALL YOUR SENATORS NOW -- TOLL-FREE
Senator Rubio 888-995-5431
Senator Nelson 888-978-3094
You will find specific talking points for each Senator below.
The Senate is scheduled to vote Tuesday at 2:15 p.m. (Eastern) on a Motion to Proceed to Debate on S. 744. This is our first opportunity to kill this amnesty/immigration increase bill so it is critically important that you call your Senators now.
If the motion passes on Tuesday, it will allow the bill to move forward to the amendment process. Unfortunately, it would be nearly impossible to amend S. 744 into a good bill so it's important you convince your Senators not to bring it to the floor.
Calling is easy. Simply dial the numbers we have provided for your Senators and when a staffer answers say something like:
"I'm calling about the S. 744 amnesty bill. My name is ______. I am calling from (name of your town) and I'm asking the Senator to vote NO on the Motion to Proceed."
You can just say thank you and hang up.
But you may want to give one reason why you think the Senator should vote against even debating the bill. You can use your own reason or pick from the ones we are including here:
Talking Points for Calling Senator Rubio
Senator Rubio has publicly endorsed the bill, but also indicated he would like to see improvements to the border security provisions. Despite that, your phone call can still help. Phone calls opposing the bill help at least curb the enthusiasm of its supporters, which can put less pressure on the Senators on the fence who are likely to decide the fate of the bill. And, in 2007, we saw many Senators vote against the amnesty that they wanted to support because they were overwhelmed by constituent opposition.
* This is the disastrous 1986 amnesty all over again.
* S. 744 gives the amnesty work permits first. It then gives only promises -- not guarantees -- for more enforcement later.
* The promises of enforcement are full of loopholes and actually weaken current immigration law.
* Please vote NO on the Motion to Proceed on S. 744.
Talking Points for Calling Senator Nelson
Senator Nelson appears to be leaning toward supporting the bill. Despite that, your phone call can still help. Phone calls opposing the bill help at least curb the enthusiasm of its supporters, which can put less pressure on the Senators on the fence who are likely to decide the fate of the bill. And, in 2007, we saw many Senators vote against the amnesty that they wanted to support because they were overwhelmed by constituent opposition.
* It is outrageous that the Senate is even considering giving out lifetime work permits to 33 million illegal aliens and foreign job seekers over the next 10 years.
* Supporting S. 744 would suggest to your constituents that you have abandoned the 20 million Americans who are unable to find a full-time job.
* S. 744 gives work permits first followed by hollow promises of enforcement later.
* Please vote NO on the Motion to Proceed on S. 744.
======================================================
Our best hope in stopping this amnesty is in phone calls from people like you. But don't assume that everybody else is going to take care of this. We need YOUR call.
Phone calls are so important right now that you will likely receive a recorded message from Roy reminding you to call your Senators.
This is the time to act. Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to make this call to help defeat the S. 744 monstrosity.

We learned of a billboard at Thursday's Lunch Bunch featuring a big picture with Senator Rubio.The message, "Amnesty First, Close the borders.........someday" We hope to find out who sponsored the billboard close to Arlington Expressway.
I called both offices and at Rubio's, it went straight to voice mail. At Nelson's it first rang enough times to then ring busy, but when I called back the phone was answered by a real person and when I told her where I was from, she put me right into the voice mail box, which said something about Rubio's office (wasn't really listening....same msg. as on Rubio's vm), but sounded as if she had transferred me to Rubio's voice mail vs. Nelson's????
Maureen, that is pretty much what I get from Nelson's folks as well. They actually sound like it is a great imposition just to take the call and then, when they find out you are asking him to vote against this nightmare bill, you get the much sterner voice that pretty much lets you know "hell" would freeze over before he voted against it.
When you can get through and not get the his voice mail box is full message, Rubio's people are at least nice, but he has changed his mind sort of and now is rethinking voting for the bill, but he is also trying to get an amendment for closing the border (in other words, he is trying to get something added that would allow him to vote for it cause he really wants to. That is not good, because one wonders how bad an amendment for closing the borders would make him think it would be ok to vote yes?).
I have called both, left voice mail for Rubio and spoke to a person a Nelson's office. I got the impression Nelson's office could not be bothered.
Nice work Leanne!! People really need to do this to let them know we are paying attention to this.
If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets. It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
