Congratulations Immigration Control Activists

CONGRATULATIONS

CCN congratulates grassroots activists from all over the USA who came to Washington, D.C. earlier this month and circulated CCN's email containing Congressman Tancredo's moratorium and other proposals around the capital. As one activist leader said in his email to CCN:

"I just returned from Washington, where we had 25 activists from over a dozen states lobbying Congress in favor of joining the Immigration Caucus and support for Tom Tancredo’s immigration reform program.

We circulated the CCN e-mail on Tancredo and the Caucus, which at last count has 60 members and we expect that to climb to at least 65 when Congress returns after President’s Day recess. I hope other grassroots groups will travel to WDC and support immigration reform while the "window of opportunity" still exists!..."

As Congressman Tancredo himself said:

"...you have to talk about a moratorium. You can’t talk about anything short of a moratorium because, frankly, anything less will never get you one step closer to stabilization."

Are your members of Congress and the organizations you support pushing hard for a moratorium? If not, NOW is the time to encourage them to get behind a moratorium. If they do not support us, why should we support them?

CCN encourages more grassroots efforts like this one. As another activist told us:

"I thank you for your message and I totally agree with your moratorium on legal immigration.... ...in Southern California...the freeways are so congested that most of the day it is quite difficult to get around and it will get worse.... Can you suggest some other ways to eliminate (or at least slow down) this insane population growth here?"

Yes, CCN responds, we can. Over 92% of California’s population growth, for example, in the last decade has been caused by mass immigration. Stopping that flow would do much to relieve further congestion. We have four specific suggestions:

1) CCN encourages everyone to push your members of Congress to enact HR 2712 with an amendment for a moratorium on all immigration in excess of 100,000 a year to that we can actually achieve immigration reduction.

2) Get your local City Council or civic organizations to pass the ASAP Moratorium Resolution which is very similar to the one which served as the basis for the passage of the Colorado Resolutions previously. Visit www.carryingcapacity.org to find out how to get a resolution campaign started.
