Friends,
Over the last hour, three US Senate office staff members have called to share good news with us.
You kept your momentum up as we asked you to with the calls to the US Senate. Again, our strategies and messaging was applied en masse with great effect.
Our friends in DC are pleased to tell us that Senator Mikulski's (D-MD) H2B Visa provisions have also been pulled from the Iraq War Funding bill. Thus, all immigration language is gone from this bill and we have won this round!
We want to salute all of the great organizations out there that have worked side-by-side in solidarity, to defeat our opposition this time.
We want to thank the heroic and brave talk radio show hosts and commentators like Lou Dobbs and Michelle Malkin who carried our banner to the forefront. There are so many to thank, I hate to even mention names. It was like an army mustering quickly, when the call came.
We want to thank all the bloggers and web runners who carried the warnings across the Net like a fleet of Paul Revere's on a desperate ride to wake the nation.
We want to thank the lawmakers in DC that did their jobs and stood with the public in opposition to this. Many of their staff members are true loyalists to our cause.
But most of all, we must thank our citizen activists. You are the Americans from all races and walks of life that have stood tall and unified and told these sellouts in DC "No!"
You have prepared for these battles, you have given of your time and funds during perilous times, you have practiced your skills, you engaged the enemy and have emerged victorious again.
It is a great honor to stand with you in these battles to save our nation. Thank you for heeding the call and moving in unison with our strategies.
William Gheen & The much appreciated ALIPAC Team
