Hi.. I was just lurking the CDB site, and noticed a Post from USA Today, that the senate last night slipped in Full Amnesty into the Minimum Wage Bill, and it was voted on! I'm not really sure about this, cuz I just went to Senate site, and there were no Floor votes yesterday, as far as I can see! I thinks it's possibly Mumbo Jumbo. Has anyone else heard anything??? Sometimes Rumors get flying like this. Its possible the Senate did slip it in, but not sure. I didn't go the the House to see what happened there Yesterday. I may wander over to the House, and see!

I hope the Senate hasn't sunk to a new low and pulled a stunt like that. Keep us posted if you find out anything about it. |

USA Today has been noted to post things that are not 100% the truth. Although, this one would not surprise a person at all. UPDATE - USA TODAY IS LYING! From NumbersUSA (a watchdog on illegal immigration) Senate Minimum Wage Bill Avoided Immigration Increases

Yea! I'm gettin Ya CW.. I just went searching a little but found Nuttin, except that the Senate did pass, the Minimum wage Bill. last thursday! But,I can't find anything about the text in that Bill. I haven't kept up with the Senate hearings as I usually do. USA had mentioned that it was a Voice vote, but I noticed that it passed 93 to 3 on a recorded vote. But I'm sure if a Full Amnesty had been thrown in that Bill, it would surely have been the Main topic on the media, especially on Lou Dobbs on CNN. He would have been screaming about it passing, and I ain't heard Him say a word about it. So, I think the whole country would know if it had passed. Just have to wait and see I guess! I know if there is any Salt to it, that Pelosi would run it thru like Jack took Robinson! Thats for sure!! Keeping my fingers crossed that its all a bunch of BUNK!! SwanJ |
