IFIRE Action Alert!
**Stop  the DREAM Act Nightmare!**
 
September 15, 2010
Wake Up!
DREAM Act is a Nightmare! 
 
 
 
Attention IFIRE Activists!
 
There is a hostage situation developing in D.C.!
Senator Harry Reid has announced his intention to hold our brave military men and women hostage to the DREAM Act Amnesty!  He is adding this nightmare to the Defense Authorization Bill which is scheduled for a vote next week!  We need ALL of you to jam the Congressional Switchboard 1-866-220-0044 
to stop this!
 
The very name of this Act is a lie!  DREAM stands for Development Relief & Education of Alien MINORS but it covers illegals up to age 35!  These *children* immediately receive legal status, permission to work and can help their illegal relatives gain status.  They go to the front of the line and receive tuition breaks that American students don't.
 
This is no small amnesty for a few deserving high school honor students!  To understand how HUGE and wide-ranging this Amnesty is, you must read this summary of the legislation.
Take action now!
 
Phone calls over the next 10 days are our top priority.

Dear Senator
 
Sen. Harry Reid has said he will attach the DREAM Act as an amendment to the Defense Authorization Bill.  I hope you will vigorously oppose the inclusion of this amendment and vote against the defense bill unless it is removed.
 
 
It is despicable to use our brave military men and women as pawns.  They are fighting for our freedom while the Senate plans to undermine them by rewarding lawbreakers with amnesty.  The DREAM Act is unfair to legal immigrants, American workers and students.  It is downright criminal to even consider passing the DREAM Act when we have as many as 22 million unemployed Americans. 
 
Your staffers have informed me that you never read the bills before passing them.  Let me suggest you read this excellent summary of what the DREAM Act would do and then vote against it.
