Where’s The Fence? National TV Ad

The President’s “comprehensive” immigration bill has failed, and now it’s time for grassroots Americans to demand President Bush, Homeland Security and Congress make good on their promise, and build the 843 miles of double layer fencing to secure our border!
To date, only 14 miles of fencing has been built in Arizona—and that fence is single layered—not the double layered that was initially promised.
This is unacceptable, and Grassfire is taking the government to task—asking “Where’s The Fence?” We’ve been promised a fence, and Grassfire is holding leadership accountable demanding they make good on their promise to build a border fence and gain operational control of our borders.
If you’re asking “Where’s The Fence?” take a moment to sign our national petition, and then alert your friends. It’s up to grassroots Americans to see to it that the promised fence is built!
Step #1 — Sign the Petition: Demand that the President and Congress uphold our constitution and defend our country by building the fence. SIGN OUR PETITION, and then rally your friends. Help us reach ONE MILLION PETITION SIGNERS this month!
The Petition
To: President George W. Bush, Honorable Members of Congress.
As a concerned citizen, I am deeply concerned about the safety and security of our nation. I believe illegal immigration poses a dire national security crisis of the highest order and a long-term threat to the American way of life. Mr. President, to win the war on terror, it is essential that the border fence—the one authorized by Congress and promised to the American people be built. I am also urging Congress to responsibly address what has become an illegal alien crisis by considering other key issues as well. I am calling on Congress and the President to:
#1 — Secure our borders. As first priority, America must stop the flow of illegal immigration by investing all necessary resources in securing our borders. Also, existing immigration laws must be enforced as an essential component of our Homeland Security.
#2 — No Amnesty. I oppose any form of amnesty for illegal aliens, including the “temporary worker” proposal or any proposals that grant legal residency status or citizenship to illegal aliens.
And:
Build The Fence. As first priority, America must stop the flow of illegal immigration by investing all necessary resources in securing our borders. The 843 miles of double-layered fencing authorized by Congress and promised to the American people is the backbone of any plan to gain control of our border and the illegal immigration crisis threatening our land.
Aggressive deportation. Immediate investment in aggressive effort to deport the 12 million illegal immigrants currently within our borders – if you’re caught, you are sent back.
No benefits. Erect a wall of separation between illegal aliens (and their children) and tax-dollar paid benefits reserved for U.S. citizens and legal aliens. I support H.R. 418 that prohibits illegal aliens from being issued drivers licenses and prevents terrorists from abusing the asylum laws of the United States.
No work. Stricter punishment of U.S. businesses that knowingly employ illegal aliens. Establish national database of legal immigrants to assist both public and private sectors in this effort.
English first. Legislation that establishes English as the required and preeminent language throughout the United States. Public and private sectors cannot be required to provide services in alternative languages.
No Birthright Citizenship. Illegals flood to the U.S. simply to have babies—which are then granted citizenship. Changing the current law is certain to curtail the illegal traffic.
