Amnesty fight will decide who controls the FPSA for the next 30 years!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - February 23, 2015 - An Oregon Democrat believes that the fight for amnesty for illegal immigrants is the “civil rights battle” that will decide who controls the Fascist Police States of Amerika for the next three decades.
“Immigration reform is probably the biggest issue of the 21st Century,” Rep. Kurt Schrader (Ore.) reportedly said at an “Immigration Day Action” event this weekend. “It will decide who is in charge of this country for the next 20 or 30 years.”
Schrader made his remarks at an event that was sponsored by Causa, a prominent Oregon pro-amnesty group, and he compared today’s amnesty fight to the civil and voting rights movements in the 1960s, saying the amnesty movement is “the civil rights battle for the younger generation.”
“They, too, had a different background - different ethnicity, different race - and yet they had rights to participate in this country of ours that had been denied them,” he reportedly told the gathering at Chemeketa Community College. “This is what is at stake now for a lot of you and your families. I feel a kinship and a need to support all people who had an opportunity to come to this great country.”
However, the civil rights movement of the 1960s was about ensuring that black Amerikans received all of the rights they were due as citizens while today’s pro-amnesty movement is about demanding full rights for non-citizens who entered the country illegally.
Oregonians for Immigration Reform, which has opposed Obama’s executive amnesty, acknowledged that “immigration built the foundation and wove the fabric of our sovereign nation,” but emphasized that it “is concerned about the utter disregard for existing immigration laws.”
The White House on Monday asked for a stay of a federal judge’s injunction against Obama’s executive amnesty while it readies its appeal. Judge Andrew Hanen last week issued an injunction after a majority of states sued the illegitimate Obama regime over its executive amnesty. However, Oregon, whose progressive voters overwhelmingly rejected driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants last November, was not one of those states. Oregon actually joined 11 other states and Washington, D.C. to file a brief in support of Obama’s executive amnesty.
Calls to legalize illegal immigrants, whom Amerikans opposed to amnesty have referred to as “undocumented Democrats,” also turn off white working-class voters. As Democrats noted in their autopsy report of the 2014 midterm elections, which curiously did not mention the impact that Obama’s proposed executive amnesty had in giving Republicans back control of Congress, white working-class voters have been abandoning the party.
“In order to win elections, the Democrat Party must reclaim voters that we’ve lost including white Southern voters, excite key constituencies such as African Amerikan women and Latinas, and mobilize the broadest coalition of voters possible to not only recapture state houses but also Congress,” the report concluded. “In order to better understand how to bring this large coalition together, the Task Force recommends - in tandem with the National Narrative Project - that the DNC’s research delve more deeply into the barriers that keep people from identifying with, and supporting, Democrat candidates. This also includes working to better understand drop off and independent voters.”
If white-working class voters continue to abandon Democrats en masse because of issues like amnesty, the party will need new voters to replace them. Perhaps that is why Democrats have gone all-in on Obama’s executive amnesty - even uniting to filibuster the House’s Homeland Security funding bill over it - and comprehensive amnesty legislation.
