\"Lindsey<\/a>We need your help.\u00a0Our sources on Capitol Hill tell us that an amnesty bill is coming out next month!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why next month? Tomorrow, <\/strong>Congress leaves for its two-week Easter holiday recess (March 25 to April 8), during which time many legislators will be hosting “town hall” meetings throughout their states and districts to address the questions and concerns of their constituents.<\/p>\n

Help us use this opportunity to tell them NO Amnesty!\u00a0Click here to find your U.S. Senators and House Representative. <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Attending a town hall meeting is the perfect opportunity to voice your concerns<\/strong> on immigration by telling your Member of Congress\u00a0that you want immigration enforcement,\u00a0not another amnesty.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We know that\u00a0members of the Gang of Eight are purposely waiting until\u00a0after<\/em> the Easter Recess to release a bill.<\/strong> Earlier this month, the\u00a0Associated Press<\/em> reported:<\/p>\n[Senator Lindsey] Graham said it wasn’t a good idea to release the bill before a two-week recess. \u00a0“You don\u2019t want to leave it hanging out for two weeks to get shot up,” he said. The legislation is certain to be controversial and may spark passionate opposition from lawmakers’ constituents…<\/p>\n

Fearing the backlash they will receive at these meetings for supporting an amnesty, the Senate and House immigration working groups have indicated they are waiting until after <\/em>they return from this break to introduce legislation.\u00a0\u00a0Make sure you do not let them get away with such evasive tactics and hold them accountable while they are home! <\/strong><\/p>\n

The pro-amnesty lobby is already mobilizing its supporters to attend these town halls! Ensure their voices are not the only ones heard \u2013\u00a0click here to locate your Members of Congress to find out whether they are hosting a town hall near you.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Be sure to bring as many FAIR friends as possible to attend and tell your Members that you want true immigration reform, not another amnesty! <\/strong><\/p>\n
