Action Alert!
This is a day for any of you who are concerned about your tax dollars going to federal contractors like the US Conference of Catholic Bishops I told you about earlier this morning, here, to contact your Congressman and let him or her know what you think about spending for more immigration and more immigrants.
MicEvHill (for February 16th) has a whole list of items to possibly be cut and I am overjoyed to see that there is a move to stop all funding for the Diversity Visa Lottery. I just mentioned this incredible program recently that allows tens of thousands of immigrants to simply enter a lottery to add more diversity to America. Just look at the countries sending us DIVERSITY!
Rep. Goodlatte (R-VA) has proposed an amendment #225 to kill the funding for the Diversity Visa! Tell your Congressman to vote for the Goodlatte Amendment to HR 1 (the continuing resolution for FY2011 funding).
See MicEvHill here for more possible amendments seeking to cut refugee program funding.
Numbers USA is urging action on these immigration funding issues today (green is good, red is bad).
