A group of self-loathing Americans has targeted
North Carolina legislators. These
transnationals are willing to bribe and intimidate three republican congressmen
as a means to legitimize illegal aliens that have invaded our country.
WASHINGTON While the immigration debate has been put on the back
burner in Washington, national and local business heavyweights are working
behind the scenes – and using their financial might – to press House
Republicans to bring legislation overhauling the immigration system to a vote.
The well-organized groups are led by some of the biggest names in
business, such as New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Facebook’s Mark
Zuckerberg. They’ve set their sights on GOP members in the South like N.C.
Reps. Renee Ellmers of Dunn, Richard Hudson of Concord and George Holding of
Raleigh, who they feel can be compelled to support an overhaul.
The groups have recruited the top business leaders in technology,
agriculture, manufacturing and chambers of commerce in each of their districts
to help deliver a unified message that immigration legislation is crucial to
the success of the North Carolina economy.
The cadre of business leaders extends well beyond Bloomberg and
Zuckerberg. Partnership for a New American Economy, led by Bloomberg, also
includes Steve Ballmer of Microsoft, Rupert Murdoch of News Corp., and Bill
Marriott of Marriott hotels. Zuckerberg’s group, FWD.us, includes Napster
co-founder Sean Parker and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman.
Zuckerberg told members of Congress recently that he plans to
spend $50 million on advertisements supporting members of Congress who support
an immigration overhaul and pressuring others who may be on the fence.
It’s part of a campaign blitz that will launch a month of rallies
and television spots that will culminate with an Oct. 28 business summit in
Washington, D.C., that’s expected to attract hundreds of business leaders from
around the country.
We have a record number
of able bodied Americans who are unemployed and are on some form of welfare. Yet, these so-called business leaders are
asking themselves what they have done lately for comprehensive immigration
reform. I have a question. What have you done lately to get an American
off the couch and back to work?
