Here’s the description of the event for this Friday at 5:30 pm at Senator Frist’s Office. The more the merrier, Phil Valentine is expecting national media exposure to this event so a good turnout would display a show of strength. The weather is supposed to be mild, so bring the family. Also, you might want to byoc (bring your own candle).

The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) is sponsoring a candlelight vigil in front of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist’s Nashville office, Friday January 27, 2006 at 5:30pm. The ‘Save The American Worker’ vigil is not a protest against Senator Frist but a reminder that Americans are watching the United States Senate and we expect them to pass the House version of immigration reform passed in December. The Senate is considering several different versions of reform. It is highly possible that a guest worker/amnesty program will be included in the Senate version. This is unacceptable. A guest worker/amnesty program would forgive millions of illegal aliens for breaking the law and encourage millions more to do the same thing. It has been tried on several different occasions, each time with the same disastrous results.
Illegal immigration costs American taxpayers billions of dollars every year. It’s time Congress passed comprehensive legislation that will begin to roll back to never-ending tide of illegal immigration.
Join Minuteman Project co-founder Chris Simcox and me for a call-to-action on this very important issue.
Thanks,
Phil Valentine
