Cut Refugee Funding Now

Email your Congressional Reps and Senators

Omnibus spending bill is the most important target to rein-in refugee program! Posted by Ann Corcoran 11/30/15

It is also the hardest to accomplish, but this—the power of the purse—is the real Constitutional power that Congress has (if they would learn to use it).

The last thing Speaker Paul Ryan wants is to have a budget battle over refugees in the coming days….He will have to decide whose side he is on!

There is much you can do this week and you must get involved because the NO borders pushers in the resettlement industry are reeling right now (scroll back through posts over the last few days).

To save me time since it has been so carefully presented by fellow blogger Richard Falknor at Blue Ridge Forum, click here, and read about Texas Rep. Brian Babin’s efforts in the House to attach a spending curb on the so-called “Omnibus” budget bill that must be voted on before December 11th (or the government shuts down).

The effort must start in the House, but we expect Senator Jeff Sessions and others to be involved in the Senate. Go here to learn more and to see the 73 brave Members of Congress who have already signed on!

If you can only do one thing this week, this is it!  Pound your Member of Congress!

If yours is not among the 73, please let them know how important this issue is to you (the refugee industry is pulling out all the stops to make sure they stay in business.)
