Grijalva Wilderness Corridor For Illegals Proposed
You’re not going to believe this. Rep. Raul Grijalva has introduced
two bills that could be used to create a virtual free passage highway
for illegals and drug smugglers as a fast track into the United States.
Rep. Grijalva is Chairman of the National Parks, Forests and Public
Lands Subcommittee of the House Natural Resources Committee,
The first bill is the Tumacacori Highland Wilderness Act of 2007 that
creates a new Forest Service Wilderness Area in Arizona on the
border with Mexico. This bill, HR 3287, creates a new wilderness
area exactly where a major illegal traffic area already exists.Technically the proposed Tumacacori Wilderness Area is not "on the
border with Mexico." It is contiguous with the small, old, Pajarito
Wilderness Area that is directly on the border and links the Pajarito
Wilderness Area with Interstate 19 and the Interior of the country.
We call HR 3287 the “Open Door Into Our US” or ODIOUS Act.
If that was not enough, Rep. Grijalva has also introduced HR 2593
which would shackle the hands of the Border Patrol on Federal lands.
Believe it or not,Rep Grijalva calls HR 2593 “The Boderlands
Conservation and Security Act of 2007.” HR 2593 is full of cute
phrasing and words to throw the reader off as to its true intent. But
you might as well just handcuff the Border Patrol on all Federal lands
all along the Mexican Border. This bill will have a huge impact on
illegal traffic if Congress should pass it.
It even blocks the building of a fence along the border.
We call HR 2593 the “Handcuff Our Border Law Enforcement Act”
or HOBLE Act.
These two bills might be called the missing link in the corridor where
illegals and drug smugglers will be protected and the Border Patrol
handcuffed.
By passing these two bills, Congress will create a massive area open
to illegals and vastly strangle the ability of law enforcement and the
Border Patrol to fight drug importation and illegal immigration.
You should be outraged. You must take action.
Action Items:-----1. Call your Congressman to ask for a copy of both HR 3287 and
HR 2593. That will force him or her staff to read the bills. Tell him
or her that from what you have heard, these are very bad bills and
should be stopped in their tracks. Ask your Congressman to contact
Rep. Raul Grijalva to oppose both HR 3287 and HR 2593. Any
Congressman can be called at (202) 225-3121.
-----2. Get a copy of the map of the proposed Tumacacori Highland
Wilderness Area and see how it fits adjacent to other Federal lands
along the border. See how it enhances an already highly used path
used by illegals and drug runners into the United States.
We’ve made up a rough map which we have posted to our website.
Go to www.landrights.org and look for Border Wilderness Bills on
the home page.
You can also get a copy by simply replying to this message with the
word “border map” in the subject line. We’ll send you one by e-mail.
-----3. Call any organizations you work with that should be informed
about these bills. Don’t assume they know already. Urge them to
take immediate action with Congress to protect our border security.
-----4. Call, fax and e-mail Rep. Raul Grijalva’s office. Here is his
contact information. You need to send him an e-mail through his staff
person, Rick Healy, listed below.
Phone: (202) 225-2435
Fax: (202) 225-1541
E-mail: rick.healy@mail.house.gov
-----5. Send a very short letter to the editor of your local newspaper
about the two bills mentioned above.
Please forward this message as widely as possible.
