It just won’t die. Michelle warned about this a week ago, and I talked about the revival of amnesty last night. Today Michelle talks about the open-borders attempt to sneak in the DREAM Act via S.A. 2237. The attempt to slip it in will be made during consideration of the Department of Defense Authorization bill (H.R. 1585).

As reliable as ever, NumbersUSA has lots of information on it. The bill is being sponsored by Senator Dick Durbin (D-ILL), and co-sponsored by the 15 Senators listed below:

Folks, it’s time to do this again. I warned last night that we may have to re-man the battle stations. Time to do so. Here’s a refresher on the DREAM Act:

In addition to being a dream for those who have broken the law, the DREAM Act raises an even larger issue regarding the relationship between states and the federal government. The 10 states have created a 21st century version of the nullifica­tion movement—defying federal law simply because they do not like it. In so doing, they have challenged the basic structure of the republic. The DREAM Act would pardon this offense and, in so doing, encourage states to defy other federal law in the future.

One thing that has been learned in the struggle to enforce federal immigration laws is that states cannot be allowed to undermine the federal efforts to enforce them. Rule of law can be fully restored only if all levels of government are working to uphold it.

This thing has to be stopped.
