LETTER REQUEST: The Wall Street Journal, July 18
DO NOT REPLY TO THIS E-MAIL. SEND ALL PUBLISHED LETTERS AND QUESTIONS PERTAINING TO THE LETTERS PROGRAM TO:
Dave Gorak
DO NOT FORWARD THIS E-MAIL OR MAKE COPIES
It is critically important to respond in a timely fashion to these alerts because interest in news stories, editorials, etc., quickly fades in just a matter of days.
FYI: You don't necessarily need a subscription to read articles targeted by our Letter Requests. Many newspapers allow a limited number of free visits each month to their pages.
(1) Please respond to this misguided opinion piece from the paper's editorial board, "An Immigration Reboot for Biden"
How about a reboot of enforcement of those laws Congress passed to protect Americans and their jobs?
Yes, regaining control of our southern border is paramount, but trading DACA for a horrendous situation deliberately created by the Democrats makes no sense at all. What's needed to stop illegal immigration is mandatory E-Verify for all employers, because without it you can count another batch of "Dreamers" showing up in a few years.
P.S. Don't forget item (7) below!
(2) Guidelines for submitting your letter
Word limit: 250

(3) Insert the following into the subject line, or place the elements of this line in a different order.
Re: An Immigration Reboot for Biden, opinion, The Wall Street Journal, 7/18
================
(4) Include your name, address and daytime and evening phone numbers so the publication can get your permission to print your letter.
================
(5) Please - when appropriate - include in any of your letters to newspapers the "report cards" for your members of Congress provided by NumbersUSA:
Congressional staffers each day go through newspapers looking for references to their bosses; the greater the exposure given to the voting records (good as well as bad) of these legislators the more these individuals will feel our eyes on the back of their necks, watching every move they make.
================
(6) - This is important - These requests present our writers with an opportunity to address their concerns from their own perspective. We want to emphasize that they are intended for participants in this program, plus a few friends, and not for wide distribution. So, please refrain from cc:ing us on your letters-to-the-editor and from talking about the program in public forums.
(7) Let me know if you get a letter published - anywhere - including the publication's name, the date they printed your letter, and the Internet link to it or the text and title as it appeared.
================
The letters program - as all the projects of NumbersUSA - relies upon individuals like you, along with grants from private foundations to reach its goal of an environmentally sustainable and economically just America.
