Subject: I just had a great meeting with the White House—Readout



Hi Jim,

The White House held a roundtable today with the leaders of several conservative groups, including Heritage Action. The meeting focused on border security and how to make good on the promises that have been made to the American people.

During the meeting, I spoke directly about the need to secure the border and that any serious plan must include the following:

A border wall
Strong enforcement of our immigration laws
The closing of loopholes that are being used to skirt the law
Common-sense reforms, such replacing the unfair visa lottery with a merit-based system

Overall, it was a healthy and productive meeting. As I walked out of the room, I had a three key takeaways for the next three weeks:

1. Congress needs to step up and act. During the shutdown, Democrats continually said that they’d work to secure the border, but first the government had to reopen. With the government now reopen, Congress has no excuse not to act. They must send a bill to the President to secure the border and strengthen the enforcement of our immigration laws.

2. Conservatives in Congress should not disengage—now, more than ever, is the time to fight for good policy. Conservatives should not sit back and do nothing. We need them to fight and lead as any bill will potentially get worse in Democrat hands. Once the final bill is released, conservatives can decide whether or not to support it.

3. The President absolutely needs our help. Democrat Congressmen are at risk of cow-tailing to the radical-left that clamors for open borders. Republican Congressmen are at risk of ceding ground because of apathy and fatigue. We urgently need to drive Democrats and Republicans alike to secure the border. If we act now, if we mobilize our friends, families, and communities to write letters, sign petitions, make calls, attend rallies, etc., then we have a real chance of achieving a major policy win. You can take action today by calling your member of Congress.

President Trump stands prepared to sign a bill on to secure the border. We need to make sure that any bill that hits his desk is a win for conservatives.

My team and I will keep you updated over the coming weeks with the latest updates on this issue and what else you can do to be engaged.

President Trump is asking everyone to forward this email to a minimum of 20 people, and to ask each of those to do likewise.
In three days, most people in the United States will have the message. This is an idea that should be passed around, regardless of political party.

The TRUMP Rules: Congressional Reform Act of 2017

1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. And, no more perks go with them.

2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress must purchase their own retirement plan, just as ALL Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people (i.e. NO MORE INSIDER TRADING!!!).

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congress made all these contracts by and for themselves.

Serving in Congress is an honor and privledge NOT a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work … not get all kinds of freebies.

NO WONDER THEY’RE FIGHTING EVERYTHING HE TRIES! Pass it on!!!! Let's help TRUMP drain the swamp!! Just hold your finger down then hit forward and send it to everyone you know. Let’s help trump get the country straightened out.

This GOP Candidate Just Released His Plan to Deal With Illegal Immigration — It Has Democrats Fuming
cruz immigration

Presidential candidate Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has just released his immigration plan. In it, he lays out a plan to focus on ending illegal immigration, returning to the rule of law, putting an end to birthright citizenship and developing a legal immigration system that “better serves American workers.”

Speaking at a campaign rally in Orlando, Florida, Cruz told the crowd that, “The commonsense principles that most of us understand and most Americans agree with on immigration, they’re not complicated: It’s legal good, illegal bad. Why is that so complicated for anyone in Washington to understand?”

While setting out his plan for the crowd, Cruz excoriated the media and the “Washington cartel” for ignoring the situation that American workers face as a result of illegal immigration that depresses wages while taking jobs away from Americans in need.

Cruz told those gathered that:

“A steady flow of illegal immigrants coming in, driving down wages impacts the wages of just about every person here. As I observed in the last debate if it was a bunch of people coming over with journalism degrees, driving down the wages of the media, then suddenly people would discover, ‘Goodness gracious this must stop.’”

Senator Cruz is the son of a legal immigrant who came to this country from Cuba. He noted how during the last Republican presidential debate establishment candidates rushed to express their support for amnesty.

“My head was exploding. There is nothing compassionate about a politician saying, ‘I’m so compassionate, I’m willing to give away your job. That’s not compassionate. And you know what, no other country on earth does this. Try sneaking into Canada or England or France or China. Try sneaking into Mexico!”

“Do our laws not deserve the same respect as every other country on earth?”

The three basic tenets of the Cruz immigration plan are: secure the border, restore the rule of law, and reform legal immigration.

Cruz’s plan also includes a border wall “that works,” as well as tripling the number of Border Patrol agents, increased aerial surveillance and border technology. His plan even institutes a biometric entry-exit tracking system to prevent visa overstays.

According to Breitbart:

The Texas Republican’s plan further calls for an increase in deportations, an end to catch and release, halting sanctuary city policies, instituting Kate’s Law, strengthening E-Verify and prohibiting illegal immigrants from receiving benefits.

“The President has plenty of time for Ahmed the clock kid but no time for Kate Steinle,” he said, contrasting Obama’s failure to acknowledge the murder of Steinle at the hands of a multiple deportee, multiple felon illegal immigrant, with his plan to stop sanctuary cities and enforce the law.

The third plank of his plan deals with legal immigration, namely preventing increases in legal immigration as long as the unemployment rate is high and workforce participation rate is low, enforcing the rule that immigrants to the U.S. must be self-sufficient, and ending birthright citizenship.

“It is well past time to end birthright citizenship,” he said.

Cruz further called for a suspension of the issuance of all H-1B visas for 180 days to investigate and audit the program and then institute a number of reforms to the system to protect American workers.
