Support Arizona!
Many are attacking Arizona's new Immigration Law with threats of boycott
and other tactics designed to injure Arizona's economy. There is even an
Obama administration effort to facilitate illegal entry through our
national wildlife sanctuary located at the border by permitting water
stations along the routes!
Water Stations for Human and Drug Traffickers?! This is absolutely
outrageous! When will it end?!
And the Mainstream Media have suppressed reports of increasing Border
Violence including the recent murder of an Arizona rancher and the
shooting of US Border Patrol agents! [More]

Illegal Alien Amnesty Threat Reborn!
The Obama/Pelosi victory in passing the Senate healthcare Bill has given momentum to other Administration agenda items. President Obama and Open Borders advocates have been hard at work getting ready to push new Illegal Alien Amnesty legislation through Congress. Indeed, Obama recently reconfirmed his intention.
As Population Environment Balance predicted, the Open Borders lobby has stepped up the pressure on Congress to pass another Illegal Alien Amnesty, and soon. Amid reports that Hispanic groups are threatening to withhold votes for Democratic candidates, President Obama appears to be moving full speed ahead to ram through a "comprehensive immigration reform" (i.e. Amnesty) bill before the midterm elections.

Balance Year-End Letter
Dear BALANCE Supporters, We led off with a challenge. But let's not forget that, thanks to your help, BALANCE and its ASAP! Coalition Allies achieved some notable successes in 2009.
BALANCE and its allies successfully fought for an extension of the E-Verify program, despite the Open Borders Lobby’s efforts to prevent it. E-Verify is a quick mechanism for checking that a job applicant is using a legal Social Security number and is currently our best tool in slowing illegal immigration. [More]

Ilegal Alien Amnesty Threat Looms as Fall Approaches
The battle over health care reform may be grabbing all the headlines during recent months, however, President Obama and the open border advocates are getting ready to push new amnesty legislation through Congress as early as September.
During a recent trip to Mexico, President Obama said that he wanted to give “an opportunity for those who are already in the United States to be able to achieve a pathway to citizenship so they don’t have to live in the shadows.” BALANCE knows that “a pathway to citizenship” is Washington DC code for Illegal Alien Amnesty!

What La Raza Doesn’t Want You to Know Illegal Immigrants are Major Contributors to Rising Health Care Costs
Last month, La Raza Unida sponsored a conference on the proposed government health care Bill. A speaker warned the attendees, “If the American People Find Out That This Bill Is About Giving Health Care to Non-Citizens, They Will Rise Up Against It.” The link describing the conference, http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2009/06/red-alert-la-raza-if-american-people.html, was pulled within several days, which could be more food for thought.

ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY BLITZ IMMINENT! AGJOBS & DREAM Act Amnesty Bills Threaten Again – Sen. Schumer Holds Hearing on Amnesty Bill Comprehensive "Reform" (Amnesty) Rears Ugly Head – Legal Immigration Increases Also Likely Obama White House "Reform" Meeting June 8th!
Ominous signs are emanating from Capitol Hill that we are headed for another fight over a massive Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill, and sooner rather than later. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Chairman of the Senate Immigration Subcommittee, recently conducted a hearing entitled, “Comprehensive Immigration Reform in 2009, Can We Do It and How?” [More]

ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY & "DREAM ACT" ATTACKS THREATEN! E-Verify Being Held as Bargaining Chip to Pass Massive Illegal Alien Amnesty Including Sen. Durbin's Dreaded "DREAM Act" E-Verify Held Hostage
Mass Immigration Reductionists were outraged when the E-Verify program (currently our best tool in slowing Illegal Immigration) was not extended in the Stimulus Bill in February. Sen. Dodd (D-CT) however, promised that the program would be extended until September 30th 2009, and indeed it was extended in the $410 billion Federal Spending Bill President Obama signed on March 11th. Why September? [More]

ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY THREAT SKYROCKETS! STIMULUS BILL LIKELY TO CREATE NO JOBS FOR AMERICANS! THE ONLY STRATEGY LIKELY TO STOP THESE OUTRAGES!
A new study by Robert Rector shows that over 300,000 of the jobs resulting from the recently enacted Stimulus Bill will now likely go to Illegal Aliens. And that is only counting construction jobs. Outrageous! Congress also watered down an Amendment which would have prevented the new jobs from going to foreign workers on H1B visas. These visas and similar categories are for three years and renewable. They allow bringing spouses, which often results in the birth of new US citizens, “anchor” babies and permanent migration. The record shows that most H1B visas are used by foreign-owned companies that have no interest in creating American jobs. [More]

Senate Stimulus Would Give 300,000 Jobs to Illegal Aliens
As you are reading this, the Senate is debating provisions for the Stimulus Package. Under the current Senate version, the Stimulus would NOT prevent the jobs created from going to Illegal Immigrants.
About 15% of all construction jobs go to Illegal Aliens, and estimates say that this package could create up to 2 million jobs. As there is nothing in this Bill preventing these jobs from going to Illegals, at least 300,000 of these jobs would undoubtedly go to Illegals, as a recent Center for Immigration Studies report has shown.

Alliance To Stabilize America’s Population Action Alert! ASAP’s MORATORIUM! SOLUTION NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER!
An Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill (S9, Reid, D-NV) has ALREADY! been introduced with 13 heavyweight Senators as co-sponsors including Kennedy, Kerry, Schumer, Lieberman, and others. Its stated Open Borders goal is "reforming and rationalizing avenues for legal immigration". But the USA is in a deepening recession with skyrocketing unemployment, so we do NOT need to be "rationalizing avenues for legal immigration"; we need to stop Mass Immigration! [More]

Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill Threat Increases
Majority Leader Reid says
"I don’t expect much of a fight at all"
H.R. 5882 would ostensibly recapture old visas (so say the spinners) that weren’t used in previous years due to 'bureaucratic delays' and give 550,000 aliens green cards -- on top of the 1 million that are already set to receive them next year! Of course, they could also bring their families. [More]

Our Future When U.S Population Doubles!
Worried about the USA's growing carbon footprint?
Concerned about the growing shortage of fresh water for humans and endangered species?
Dismayed that the War on Poverty is being lost?
Fed up with overcrowded schools, hospitals, and roads?
Sure that we will have to drill for oil off-shore to accommodate our growing energy needs?
Terrified of having a "Soylent Green" society in our grandchildren's lifetime?

ALERT! SENATOR MENENDEZ
STRANGLING E-VERIFY, STOPPING ONE OF OUR MOST EFFECTIVE
ILLEGAL ALIEN ENFORCEMENT TOOLS!
Sen. Menendez (D-NJ), is refusing to
allow the excellent E-Verify Bill to come to a vote
in the Senate. If he is successful, the E-Verify program
will sunset in November and we will lose one of our
most effective tools for discouraging the illegal
aliens invasion. [More]

DEMOGRAPHICS BOOST IMMIGRATION COSTS AND FOOD SUPPLY RISKS
Noted economist and public policy expert Ed Rubenstein has recently issued an important study called “The Fiscal Impact of Immigration – An Analysis of the Costs to 15 Federal Departments and Agencies”. The findings serve to support what we at BALANCE have been saying for many years: Massive Immigration, legal and illegal, is a drain on the U.S. economy in myriad ways and this problem is only going to worsen as our population, currently at about 335 million, continues to grow.

SUPPORT AUTHENTIC U.S. POPULATION
STABILIZATION INITIATIVE!
U.S. Population Stabilization is essential
to long-term environmental protection and sustainability.
Only BALANCE and its ASAP! Coalition
Allies push an Initiative which if implemented would
eventually result in U.S. Population Stabilization
The Centerpiece of this Initiative
adopted by BALANCE and the sixty-plus organizations
which are members of the ASAP! Coaliton is a zero-net
-immigration Moratorium on Legal Immigration. [More]

33 YEARS OF POPULATION-ENVIRONMENT
BALANCE'S UNIQUE CONTRIBUTIONS
Highlights: Population-Environment
BALANCE was founded as The Environmental Fund in 1974.
Its mission is to stabilize the United States' Population
to protect the environment. It fearlessly addresses
issues which others are too timid to address. For
example, BALANCE recognizes that the ONLY way to achieve
U.S. population stabilization is to push to enact
a Zero-Net-Immigration Moratorium. Thus BALANCE makes
pushing a Moratorium its First Priority.
Starting with what is most recent: BALANCE
and its ASAP! Coalition Allies successfully led the
battle to stop five major illegal alien amnesty attempts
in Congress in 2007. BALANCE employed the "moratorium
push" strategy -- the ONLY effective strategy
for both stopping the amnesty pushes and eventually
getting reductions in legal immigration. A Moratorium
message deploys a strategy that offers the best, and
probably the only, means of stabilizing the United
States' population. [More]

THE ONLY WAY TO WIN THE IMMIGRATION
BATTLE
The ASAP! Coalition and BALANCE are pleased to send
you an article by Selwyn Duke describing why it is
essential to push for a Moratorium in order to get
any reductions in legal or Illegal immigration.
Only BALANCE and its ASAP Coalition allies push for
a 5-year zero immigration Moratorium. This is the
most effective way to not only stop all Amnesty proposals,
but also to gain leverage to get real reductions in
legal and illegal immigration. [More]

Sen. Specter of Pennsylvania is poised to introduce
a new immigration reform package. Sen. Specter's Open
Borders record is clear, however, and we know that
this will be nothing but another Amnesty Bill. Senator
Specter says he has spoken to most of the Senators
involved in this past Spring's immigration battle,
outlining his plan and discussing how to get things
started again. [More]

Victory!
BALANCE and its ASAP coalition allies led the way
to defeat the Senate Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill
on a failed Cloture vote of 46 - 53!
Our linking Illegal and Legal Immigration
via pushing for a zero-net-immigration Moratorium
was crucial in defeating the Open Borders proponents'
argument that "the solution to the illegal
alien problem is to legalize them all."
Now, join us in a temporary celebration
and a renewed effort to dramatically reduce the
1 million plus annal legal immigration and continuing
massive illegal immigration flow by helping us push
our Moratorium Initiative.
Congratulations to one and all.

Publications on the size and growth rate of the
U.S. population seem designed to confuse rather
than enlighten. The Census Bureau made up for large
annual underestimates of population growth during
the 1990s with a 12 million person bump in the census
year. Unfazed, it perpetuates error through massively
undercounting illegal aliens. [More]
URGENT ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY
VOTE THREAT!
SENATE CLOTURE VOTE LIKELY THIS MONDAY -
WRITE, FAX AND CALL YOUR SENATORS TODAY!
Don't take Democrat or Republican
Senators for granted. Some need encouragement
to vote AGAIN against Cloture for S. 1348. Some
are on the edge. Sources say that their mail and
message boxes are relatively empty.
The United States Senate is likely
to have the Pivotal Vote on the Alien Amnesty
as early as this Monday!
That Pivotal Vote will be on whether
to Invoke Cloture (i.e. shut off debate).
If 41 Senators vote AGAINST Cloture,
the debate will continue and the Bill may die
the death it deserves. If 60 or more Senators
vote FOR Cloture, we can be assured that some
horrific version of an Alien Amnesty Bill will
pass the Senate soon. [More]
