GREENSPACE VIDEO ON EARTH DAY CRISIS — When do we stop allowing immigration to destroy a million acres a year?

By Roy Beck

No, I’m not suggesting that immigrants deliberately or inadvertently destroy more green space than U.S.-born residents. In fact, each immigrant on average destroys less than the average American. But the numbers of immigrants (4 times the traditional average) are resulting in the clearing, scraping and developing of nearly a million additional acres of natural habitat … Continued

S.T.O.P. AMNESTY in 2010! Target: State by State

By Chad Aaron

The threat of Amnesty is an everyday battle on Capitol Hill. No matter where the President is, no matter where Congress is, NumbersUSA is laser-focused on stopping any blanket Amnesty in 2010 and giving unemployed U.S. workers the opportunity to control jobs currently held by illegal aliens. Don’t you think 25 million Americans need a … Continued

Thoughts On My 40th Anniversary About Attempts To Smear NumbersUSA With Hate & Racism Labels

By Roy Beck

Shirley and I were certainly earnest products of the ’60s college scene. We spent a good part of our first date in January 1967 discussing Martin Luther King and getting excited that we shared very similar concerns about racial discrimination. The recessional that I wrote for the folk group at our wedding in 1970 included … Continued

White Open-Borders Activists Accuse Anti-Amnesty Black Group of Being Like the Klan

By Roy Beck

I have grown accustomed to well-funded open-borders groups sending hecklers to call me a “white supremacist” every place I speak. But I was still a little surprised when I spoke to a Black grassroots group recently to have all the African Americans there also accused. It now looks like pro-amnesty groups are willing to label … Continued

New JOBS CAUCUS Is Serious About Putting Americans Back To Work (unlike most federal politicians)

By Roy Beck

For 16 months, NumbersUSA has tried to focus politicians and news media on the fact that millions of jobless Americans could be put back to work if immigration policies were changed.  Now, a new Caucus in the U.S. House has been formed to promote the same message INSIDE Congress. Politicians joining the Reclaim American Jobs … Continued

Open-Borders Lobby Lost a Lot In Final Obama Healthcare Bill

By Roy Beck

The virulently open-border Congressional Hispanic Caucus appears poised to vote FOR health care verification requirements that they vehemently oppose.  And that is both a great irony of this protracted debate and a sign that grassroots activists for sensible immigration policies can take at least some satisfaction for all of their efforts this past year to … Continued

At Least, We Can Unite Around Blood

By Roy Beck

I feel like I lost a bit of my U.S. citizenship today. For 45 years, no matter how polarized my community or my country, no matter how loud the shouting matches and the challenges to each other’s morality and humanity . . . I always felt like I could set aside differences and engage in … Continued

Stung by Criticism He’s Abandoning Black Poor, Pres. Obama Ignores Easiest & Biggest Solution

By Roy Beck

Pres. Obama is under attack from some Black leaders for allowing Black poverty and unemployment to remain agonizingly high. Blinded by the open-borders ideology that afflicts most of the nation’s political and media elite, Mr. Obama can’t see that he really could deflect the criticism and stick with his stated principles merely by being willing … Continued

MY TIPS FOR OBAMA JOBS SUMMIT: Put Hundreds of Thousands Back to Work FOR FREE

By Roy Beck

Nobel-award winning economist Paul Krugman can’t figure it out. So, I doubt that he or any of the other hot-shot business and academic experts at Pres. Obama’s jobs summit Thursday will bring up the fact that hundreds of thousands additional Americans could be working a year from now by changing immigration quotas (FOR FREE). I’m … Continued
