The U.S. Senate is debating comprehensive immigration reform right now on the Senate floor! The bill being debated, “Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007”, S. 1348, would address: 1) enhanced border security, 2) increased enforcement of employer prohibitions in hiring illegal immigrants, 3) a transition to legal status of the 12 million illegal aliens currently in the U.S., and 4) provisions for future temporary worker programs to fill jobs where there are insufficient U.S. workers.
This is a tremendous accomplishment as key leaders from both parties who have been divisive on so many issues finally found enough common ground to support the compromise. Surveys confirm that a majority of Americans believe the current immigration system is broken and they support reasonable accommodations for legal immigration.This moderate perspective is not being heard by your member of congress and the future of comprehensive immigration reform is at risk.
It is imperative that your Senators hear from you immediately or this rare opportunity to actually find solutions to our broken immigration system will be lost. TAKE ACTION NOW!
To strengthen the produce voice, encourage your managers and employees to also take action.
The time to act is now!
Thank you for your help in driving a UNITED FRESH message in Washington
