you could do the current issue of immigration.  There is a ton of information (and opinion pieces) out there right now because it is such a huge issue in the U.S.

Which supplemental are you referring to?  All the other approps bills are making their way through the process now...most of them now in the Senate.

We had something similar passed here last decade.  We called it the LINE ITEM VETO.  It allowed the president to cross out lines of legislation passed before signing it into law.  The purpose was to stop idiot lawmakers from adding totally unrelated items to a bill (ie.  the federal government shall be responsible for determining jurisdictional boundries . > and $50 million shall be approved for pothole repair in Pittsburg)\nThe line item veto allowed the last bit to be stricken from the passed legislation and was intended to undo what has become the main gridlocking habit of the day.  pas a piece of legislation that conbines two or more unassociated things so as to make it unpalatable or to piggyback onething that outerwise would not get passed.\nWe no longer have people up in arms and perhaps this is what your bill is really about,\nIf not, your constitution should have basis to challenge this law, should it pass.

Good idea, I think it is a time for a march on Washington. Congress seems to be getting weak on what they started. Letters and e-mail you congressmen and senators and let them know how you feel.

It's quite possible.  The same way that representatives bring up all these great plans right at the end of the term, come home for the summer while Congress is out of session, campaign and then return to "finish the job."  Then, right after the elections, a lot of the bills that the same reps were proposing and talking about die in committees, because they never really cared about them other than to talk about.

First off, I believe you mean H.R. 4437. It's a good, strong bill againt illegal immigration passed by the House and yet to be voted on by the Senate, but will probably be shot down because the GOP has become a bunch of sissies. See below for more info (especially the External Links at the bottom).

It isn't in place yet.  The Senate passed one version, the House passed a different one.  The Senate will give theirs to the House to see if they can negotiate one bill for all of Congress to vote on.  If they can't, it will not go further.  Meanwhile other people are sponsoring new legislation to see if that is better or more popular.

I'll do it. Email it to Pelosi01@aol.com and I will review it for you.

It already passed the House in December. There is no way to know when the Senate will vote on it. It is currently in the Judiciary committee, and it could take months to get through there or never be moved on to the whole house.

its time to vote for people that do take this seriously and want to up hold the laws.  I have a feeling that if nothing is done there will be alot of new faces in congress.

If you go to Congress.org you can get a listing of recent bill in Congress on both House and Senate.  It will also tell you how different representatives voted and what the final count was as well as a synopsis of what each bill is about.  I believe it also allows you to get info on state laws as well.  \n\nAnother great resource is the "Congress At Your Fingertips" directory.  It has all the contact info and more for every member of the House and Senate.  The book is printed by Capitol Advantage website www.capitoladvantage.com

Just learned about it a few minutes ago, but my Congressman isn't at work yet when I phoned him.  I'll keep you posted.\n\nHere's the text of the bill.\nhttp://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:h4752:\n\nJust one question, are Democrats really that suicidal?
