This was only ONE battle


NumbersUSA Urgent Action

  Keep the President in retreat on his amnesty -- You won a huge victory over the weekend but please apply more pressure today

(SEE RED BOX BELOW FOR MORE EASY ACTIONS TO TAKE)
WHAT AN AMAZING THING YOU ACCOMPLISHED LAST WEEK!
The White House announced over the weekend that Pres. Obama not only won't keep his promise/threat to issue a giant executive amnesty by the end of summer (Sep. 21) but also won't announce anything before the November elections.
(Read more about the announcement and Sen. Sessions' reaction and warning at: https://www.numbersusa.com/news/obama-bows-public-senatorial-pressure-delaying-immigration -action.)
Greet Congress With New Faxes
Congress returns from its August recess today. We have to keep the pressure on Congress to lay the groundwork for the President to feel he has to retreat some more once the November elections are over.
The phone calls and faxes and town hall appearances by all of you in the grassroots mobilization network were responsible for making the President so desperate that he would break a promise that he had made so publicly and so many times this year.
But you can't let up.

If any of your 2 Senators & 1 Representative in Congress is a Democrat, please click on the button above and send that free fax.
The pressure on the Democrats in Congress has been the most important this last month. You frightened enough of them to effectively beg Pres. Obama to pull back from the amnesty for fear of election disasters.
The best thing to do now is to constantly remind them that their constituents believe it is wrong to add any more foreign workers to compete with millions of unemployed Americans. The best way to beat back an amnesty of illegal immigration at the end of this year is to spend the time before then making the case against nearly all immigration.
 Send to Republicans in Congress

If any of your Members of Congress is a Republican, click this button.
You have frightened cheap-labor Republicans into voting with our pro-worker allies for a strong House bill late July, and you have emboldened our allies in Congress to speak aggressively about the harm that our immigration policies cause to the country's wage-earners and their families.
Most of you have a lot of other actions that are on your customized Action Board. I hope you will act on as many of them as possible and absolutely flood Congress with what pollsters now say is the No. 1 issue on voters' minds.
THANKS,
