Good News: Sen. Sessions still fighting for citizenship verification amendment
Just heard from Sen. Sessions’ office about the bipartisan amendment to ensure that stimulus fund recipients perform E-verify citizenship vetting before spending our tax dollars. Good news:
“…the E-Verify fight isn’t over. We just re-filed the amendment which is modified to fit the Collins/Nelson substitute. We can still object to a UC [unanimous consent] to accept the manager’s amendment unless we get a vote on E-Verify.”
I’ve uploaded the amendment text (pdf) here.
Call Reid, Baucus and Menendez.

Thanks Sen. Sessions!
Now,it’s time for us to consider being citizen soldiers and harassing illegals wherever we find them…. if gays can harass yes voters on prop 8…. why not? It’s rhetorical, folks….I know the answer.
Senator Sessions…a ray of light in the darkness that is the U.S. Sentate. God bless you, sir!
PTL for Sen. Sessions!
Did anyone else watch the Townhall gag-athon!
Ruined my lunch time by wathcing the annoited one mesmerize those in attendance.
One particapant asked a question while referring to Sean Hannity, and recieved muted boos from some of the audience. BHO really did not answer the question.
Thank you Senator Sessions for your effort. I doubt it will get any place, but still, thank you.

Just called Sen. Sessions’ DC office and told them that my own Senator Harry Reid’s office cannot give me an answer to why he is blocking a vote on E-verify.
(I already know the answer – it would PASS easily!)
I asked them to tell Sen. Sessions to “beat up on” Sen. Reid over this issue.
Link does not work Michelle.
Senator Sessions has been rock solid on the issue. Thank you sir.
One of a rare handful of public servants that understands his role and acts accordingly.
Revisit one of his most poignant moments on this subject
(circa 6/07)
Won’t make any difference. The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) is too powerful and not going to allow Harry Reid and his cronies lose this fight.
Dingy Harry will no doubt break out the bigger weapons in his fight for the 12 million “undocumented Americans” that he envisions voting Democrat as soon as he “documents” them.
This is why I’ve been saying that the Republicans better get on top of this and show the American people that the Democrats deliberately caused this disaster. I knew they would try to spin this the other way. Rangel, Dodd, Schumer and the other crooks have their paw prints all over this. This is inexcusable.
By the skin of our teeth we may survive Oblahblah.
THE LAST 8 YEARS HAVE INCREASED THE DEFICIT, SO OBAMA’S DEFICIT AS WRITTEN BY NANCY AND HARRY ARE BUSH’S DEFICIT TOO. REMEMBER WHAT THEY SAID WHEN BUSH TOOK OVER IN A RECESSION WHERE THE NASDAQ COLLAPSED AND THEN 9/11 HAPPENED. ALL BUSH’S PROBLEMS, NO CLINTON CARRYOVER. BUSH IS GONE, OBAMA OWNS THE CRAZY LEFT AND IT’S SOCIALIST AGENDA.
numbersusa.com is on top of this valiant fight by Sen Sessions, as always. Follow their action buffet.
Sessions is a good man.
Republicans need to take his lead and go one better. Get histrionic about this fight! Get out on the floor and scream about it!
When I read the title of this blog, I immediately thought of BHO…
Great – now how about citizenship verification, as in an official “Certificate of Live Birth” for his Oneness! And, why have over $800,000 in attorney fees been logged by the One’s legal advocates to keep his official birth certificate buried?
MtsEdge,
Excellent point! What would E-Verify reveal about Soetoro/Obama?!?
Sens. Session and DeMint are about the only two who will stand up for the citizens. I wouldn’t give you a plugged nickel for the rest of them.
I called Sessions office several times after the amnesty fight urging him to run for President….I wish he had!!!!
I have been sending my letter everywhere and anyone but have not had one reply as of yet. So much for working for WE THE PEOPLE.
The Present (President w/o ID) is simply another undocumented American.
I’ve said it before, and it bears repeating in this context…
The COLB “proof” that Obama provided…
1) …Is not the same thing as the original birth certificate, and does not show the name of the hospital where he was born. Obama has never provided proof of the hospital and attending physician at his birth. Obama and his sister have given different hospital names as his location of birth. No hospital in Hawaii has any record of Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, being a patient in their hospital around the time of Obama’s birth.
2) …First appeared on Daily Kos along with “Haye I.B Ahphorgerie” (”Hey! I Be A Forgery!”)
3) …Was rightfully suspected of being a forgery.
4) …The “hardcopy” was produced at the Obama Campaign headquarters, not by the State of Hawaii, and was only shown to a small, controlled, friendly audience.
5) Neither the Daily KOS image nor the hardcopy were ever “verified” by the State of Hawaii.
6) No Hawaiian official ever went on record saying that Obama was born in Hawaii.
7) Both the Associated Press and Annenberg Political Fact Check published LIES that were then distributed far and wide and were believed by many people, including our beloved hostess Michelle and my Republican Senator.
8 ) VP Cheney and the full Congress inspected one certificate from Hawaii (the certificate of the Electoral Vote), but never inspected the other certificate from Hawaii (the certificate of live birth for Obama).
It baffles the mind how Obama was able to pull off this fraud in plain sight.
Pay no attention to Obama’s grandmother who says she was present at his birth…in Kenya!
Pay no attention to Obama’s admitted British citizenship at birth (because his father was a British subject, not a U.S. citizen).
Pay no attention to Obama’s Indonesian citizenship or his 1981 travel to Pakistan on a non-U.S. passport.
We now have a Marxist usurper as Saboteur-in-Chief.
It boggles the mind to think that our politicians are OK with handing our money over to illegal aliens in this country.
All in the name of human “rights”. Sorry, but if you come here legally, that’s one thing. To come here illegally and sponge of our tax dollars in the name of “rights” is another thing. Go home. If you want to come here, do it legally. My parents did.
Wouldn’t we all like to know?
If he’s undocumented, how can you be sure he’s an American?
In 1981 Pakistan was being ruled by General Ziaul haq under Martial law and Pakistan was under ban list to travel for USA citizens.
go figure
How about illegal alien (or illegal immigrant, if you prefer)?
Point is, we have someone claiming to be POTUS who shouldn’t be, or needs to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt he is Constitutionally qualified. If not, he needs to deported.
