Where's The Fence?

For those of you that have already seen this on our family blog be sure to click on the 2nd link. It is new for you. ;-)








You can get "Where's The Fence" bumper stickers & address labels or "Stop the Invasion" bumper stickers and caps here. (Scroll down a bit.) Below is an email I received.

For another great ad and more info click here.

We've just learned that the President is calling on border
agents with welding and construction experience to finish
70 miles of fencing on the border!

This is no joke. This Administration is actually asking for
volunteers to help build the fence--demonstrating once again
that they aren't the least bit serious in enforcing our border.

Since $1.2 billion, has already been allocated toward the fence,
I have little doubt that private contractors by the hundreds
would love to get a piece of that pie!

And here's something else... just 13 of the 854 miles of double-
layered fencing authorized and promised us along our southern
border has been built--only it's a single-layered fence!

We're not even getting the fence that was promised us!

It's the same old song. Congress is not listening
to the American people who made themselves clear during the
amnesty debate. Americans don't support any type of amnesty,
and we want our borders secured!

And it gets even worse. We've also heard that following their
summer break Congress is planning to push a piece-meal amnesty.


+ + Message to Congress, "Where's The Fence?"

Thanks to you and tens of thousands of citizens we literally
derailed the Bush-Kennedy amnesty train. No one thought we
could do it. We were mocked even by our President and many
Senators. But in the end, we did it!

Now it is up to grassroots Americans to once again mount up
and demand this Administration and Congress build the 854
miles of double-layer fence, that our borders are secured,
and that existing laws regarding illegal aliens and those
who hire them are enforced, Congress is poised to return
with another bad amnesty plan!

Grassfire has had enough, and we hope you have too.

We've made a specific language change in our
national petition, making building the fence a first priority:

"America must stop the flow of illegal immigration
by investing all necessary resources in securing our
borders. The 854 miles of double-layered fencing
authorized by Congress and promised to the
American people is the backbone of any plan to gain
control of our border and the illegal immigration crisis
threatening our land."

We are alerting ALL members of our team to this language change,
and are asking you to re-sign our "Where's The Fence?" petition
by clicking here to quick sign if you agree with this language:


http://www.grassfire.org/42/petition.asp?PID=8781855&NID=1

Our goal over the next 30 days is to rally an additional
250,000 citizen signers to push our petition total to
ONE MILLION strong!

Grassfire will take these petitions DIRECTLY
to the Department of Homeland Security demanding
they stop dragging their feet and give the people what
they want--a border fence!

We'll also take these petitions DIRECTLY to those
in Congress who continue to press for amnesty for
the millions of illegal aliens living in our nation.


Despite being bound by law, Congress and
the Administration have no intention of building the double-
layered fence promised the American people...

A secured border will only happen if citizens rise up and
demand the fence!

Just for fun...

Call the White House and tell them you'd be willing to pick up
a shovel to help build the fence that was promised us. Here's
the contact number: 202/456-1111.

Thanks for signing again, and for your continued commitment to Grassfire.
