From the Desk of Steve Elliott
We just checked with our contacts on Capitol Hill to get
the latest on the status of the border fence President
Bush and the Department of Homeland Security doesn't seem
to want to build.
Here's what we learned...
--843 miles of double-layer fencing was authorized last year.
--Since then, only 13 miles of fencing has been built.
If that isn't shocking enough...
NONE of those 13 miles are double-layer -- the very type of
fence authorized by Congress and proven to work on the border!
not only is the Administration dragging their feet
to build the fence, the little bit of fence they are building
isn't what was promised to the American people!
+ + Mr. Bush, "Where's The Fence?"
thanks to you and tens of thousands of citizens
we literally derailed the Bush-Kennedy amnesty train. No one
thought we could do it. We were mocked even by our President
and many Senators. But in the end, we did it!
But unless we press forward NOW and demand that all 843 miles
of double-layer fence be built, that our borders are secured,
and that existing laws regarding illegal aliens and those who hire
them are enforced, Congress WILL BE BACK with another amnesty bill.
Back in session after their July 4 break, the last thing
Congress and the President want to think about is building
that fence.
That's where you come in!
We want to ramp up the pressure immediately with
a flood of faxes that all say, "Where's The Fence?"
Go here to send your "Where's The Fence?" message
to the White House and key Congressmen:

+ + Bush's "Silent Amnesty" is unacceptable and MUST end!
The defeat of the amnesty bill has not stopped the overall
agenda of the open borders movement -- promoting a "silent
amnesty" by allowing millions of illegals to enter our country
and become established until the number of illegals reaches
critical mass.
, we are at critical mass right now. The status
quo of "silent amnesty" cannot continue. That's why this push
to secure our borders is so important--especially now that we
know the true colors of our leadership.
The time is now to rise up and demand an end to this illegal
invasion into our nation.
And the first step is a massive and united outcry from citizens
that says, "Where's The Fence?" Go here to schedule your faxes:

the President and Congress want this issue to
go away. Despite being bound by law, they have no intention of
building a double-layer fence they promised the American people.
A secured border will only happen if citizens rise up and
demand the fence!
Our voice is loud and strong. Now we must use it to secure our borders.
Thanks for continuing to take a stand.
