With the advent of the New Year, we must urgently return to our mission of securing the borders and ensuring our immigration laws are enforced. Last year, we succeeded at defeating amnesty and halting the issuance of driver’s licenses to illegal aliens—but over the Christmas holidays, we LOST the battle of the federal border fence when Congress secretly removed it from the Department of Homeland Security’s budget, thereby leaving our country exposed for the foreseeable future to the dangers of an open border.
When Congress returns to work next week, our top priority must be restoring the $3 Billion dollars previously allocated for the physical border fence—with no rest until we succeed. We must fill their inboxes, voice mails and fax machines with messages from their constituents to let them know THE FENCE IS A DEAL-BREAKER FOR THEIR RE-ELECTION; that we will remain vigilant in our mission to secure our nation’s borders, and if they are seeking re-election later this year, they “better get with the program”!
The American people had their national security stripped away from them in 2007, but we will not let Congress do it again in 2008. Please SELECT HERE to send an immediate fax to President Bush, all 535 Members of Congress, all 50 Governors and all state Chairmen of the Republican and Democratic Parties and tell them to issue an emergency spending bill to secure our nation’s open borders by RE-FUNDING the construction of our Border Fence. Remind them that all Americans want their families to be safe rather than be exposed to the dangers we invite into our country through our IRRESPONSIBLY OPEN BORDERS!

While Congress slyly de-funded the fence, then traveled the world on their famous junkets at the expense of well-heeled, Gucci wearing lobbyists. Meanwhile, we citizens spent another New Year’s Day worrying about the millions of illegal aliens who enter our borders undeterred and undetected. We are determined not to have 2008 be another “experiment in terror” with Americans in fear for our families over the potential threats against our loved ones, our communities and our nation from the terrorists and MS-13 gang members who seek to do us harm.
Last year millions of illegal aliens entered our country carrying drugs, diseases, weapons, and trafficking underage girls and boys who are sold into the illegal sex trade—as well as MS-13 gang members like the ones who committed violent acts in New Jersey, and terrorists like the ones who attempted to attack Fort Huachuca, Arizona. We have recently received information that the same MS-13 gang members and other illegal aliens who are invading our country on a daily basis, have defaced a second Vietnam Veteran memorials in New Haven, Connecticut.
Congress truly pulled the rug out from under us slyly DE-FUNDING the BORDER FENCE while we were spending quality time with our families, deceiving the American people and only showing good will to the 12 million lawbreakers living among us. We must ensure that our Washington lawmakers understand that we—AND THEY—cannot sustain this country as nation of laws unless our sovereignty is protected, and we know America’s families will be safe from the terrorists, gang members, career criminals and international drug cartels that are swarming our country through our open borders.
In order to ensure the promises President and Congress made to secure our borders and enforce our immigration laws during the 110th Congressional Session are kept, we must get vocal now! We cannot allow slick politicians to use double-talk and think that they can go unpunished when after twelve months, they only have 20 miles of fencing constructed, rather than the 700 miles we were promised.
We are NOT willing to risk more dangerous delays, or gamble on the political will of a new more liberal 111th Congress in 2009, which is why the border security movement must take action NOW. The Will of the People for national security and safety enforcement must be resoundingly delivered to Congress in the same manner as we mustered last summer for the Senate “NO Amnesty” votes.
Please ACT NOW to ensure we have the necessary resources to organize a similar level of citizen response and can successfully move America closer to securing its borders.

Please SELECT HERE to send an immediate fax to President Bush, all 535 Members of Congress, all 50 Governors and all state Chairmen of the Republican and Democratic Parties and tell them to issue an emergency spending bill to secure our nation’s open borders by funding the construction of our Border Fence.

Remember, this is the same funding that has been promised to us since President Bush signed the Secure Fence Act in October 2006. Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA) has stated several times that it was designated for Homeland Security Department to construct a physical Border Fence, and we must make sure it becomes a reality.
We must immediately muster strong grassroots support to restore funding for the fence construction NOW! President Bush, Senate Leader Reid, House Speaker Pelosi and ALL of their colleagues must feel the pressure from millions of voters.
As you know, our country is generally led by weak-kneed politicians whose public policies will shift with the trends of polling numbers and elite media preferences. THEY SOMETIMES TALK THE TALK, BUT IF WE TAKE OUR EYES OFF THEM FOR AN INSTANT, THEY WILL NOT WALK THE WALK! Their actions demonstrate that our message of BORDER SECURITY FIRST was not been heard loud enough in Congress last year and we therefore must redouble our efforts in order to secure our borders this year.
If we don’t get Congress to restore the funding this year, then there will be no federal Border Fence! Please ACT NOW to ensure we have the necessary resources to organize a similar level of citizen response as we mustered against Amnesty, and can successfully move America closer to physically securing its borders.

The pro-illegal immigration, open borders lobby and the Mexican government have used their power to see that this funding was removed—they have vast influence in Washington and will continue to use it to devastating effect—if we let them. That is why we must take action NOW and implore every voter and citizen activist who called and faxed Congress last June, to call and fax again TODAY, and AGAIN next week. MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD AGAIN IN WASHINGTON AND AMONG THE POLITICAL DECISION-MAKERS!
The urgent need to restore this funding to the Homeland Security Appropriations Bill is REAL! We are all well aware that there are more than 12 million illegal aliens living within our communities and without a physical Border Fence, there will be millions more this year.
We must do everything we can to secure our borders in the 110th Congress. We must keep up the pressure on cowardly, weak-kneed politicians who will do the right thing to protect and defend America only if they hear from us more than they hear from the open borders lobby.
Help us to halt this sly move to strip the Border Fence of resources, and restore the funding immediately, so that our federal government shall be obliged to secure the borders against illegal border incursions and lax enforcement of our immigration laws. Please ACT NOW to ensure we have the necessary resources to organize a similar level of GRASSROOTS POLITICAL OUTRAGE AND INFLUENCE as last year’s successful defeat of the Amnesty bills, and help us to move America closer to securing its borders!

Our politicians flip and flop based on poll numbers and their pathetic desire to win the approval of the New York Times and CNN, but we have proven they DO respond to the pressure of angry voters who are sick and tired of seeing their elected officials legislate policies that put American families at risk from the violent actions of illegal aliens. Together we must work quickly and make certain that our borders are secured, so illegal aliens NEVER receive Amnesty, driver’s licenses or a free pass on employment outside our laws.
Let’s show the politicians of this country that the MAJORITY of LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS will no longer sit passively by while the political class rewards illegal behavior, and refuses to defend our nation by simply funding and building a physical Border Fence. We must remind them that all Americans want their families to be safe at home rather than be exposed to the dangers we invite into our country through our unprotected borders.
Help us to restore the Border Fence funding immediately, in order to secure the borders against illegal border incursions and lax enforcement of our immigration laws. Please ACT NOW to ensure we have the necessary resources to organize a similar level of activity as this year’s successful defeat of the Amnesty bills, and help us to move America closer to regaining its national sovereignty!

Let’s tell these politicians that their failure to fund the Border Fence is a treasonous betrayal of our country! They are sworn to uphold the rights and duties of American citizenship—not undermine and debase them by allowing millions of illegal aliens to enter our country and harm our citizens!
You can make the difference by helping us to do the job our government refuses to do! Your support for MCDC’s advocacy of this critical fence funding is vital to our success, and I hope we can count on you to contact our Washington lawmakers TODAY!
For the love of our country,
Carmen Mercer, Vice President
Minuteman Civil Defense Corps
Director, Minuteman Border Fence
