S744 National Press Day

A very interesting post from www.NumbersUSA.com about the Remember 1986 Press Events about S744, the "Gang of Eight" bill. This follows this post about the Executive Branch's scandals as a distraction away from the "Gang of Eight" Bill. This follows this post about the release of illegal immigrant felons from prison by ICE. This follows this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants! For more about what is happening in the nation now click here and you can read two very interesting books HERE!

S744 National Press Day

WE THE PEOPLE are hosting national media events nationwide on May 21st, 2013 at 10:00am, in an effort to help DEFEAT S744.
Need more info?  Email rusty@childress.com or call 480.203.1051 today!

What’s needed:

1) choose a sidewalk location (State Capitols, Congressional offices, Federal Bldg., Courthouse, City Hall, local RNC and Tea Party offices, public parks, etc.)
2) choose a moderator and speaker newsmakers who represent various viewpoints:  ethnic, faith, business, labor, education, elected officials, law enforcement, science, pillars of the community, activists, VIP celebrities, experts in science/education/economics, etc.
3) create and distribute a press release (sample) to local media including print, TV, radio, RNC/GOP and Tea Party offices, and bloggers (see F.A.I.R,  mondotimes.com).  Contact Van Esser <van@numbersusa.com> for a spreadsheet of the media contacts in your area.
4) identify local coordinator(s) for the media contact and location reference listing below
Optional ideas:  podium, microphone & speaker system, stage, tent, banners, charts, American/state flags, signs, and handouts.  After the press conference you may wish to plan rallies, pot lucks, town halls, processions or marches, or any type of event that invites public participation and involvement.  You are encouraged to print out S744 for a show and tell, and if you have a YouTube channel make sure you record it for all to see. (If you are renting the PA system be sure to ask them for a “mult box” so that the media easily plug into it.)

Tips:

1) please participate in a press embargo prior to the event
2) notify your police community response team in advance, they will appreciate it
3) keep speakers to 2 minutes each and leave time for Q & A
4) use social media and your existing databases to promote your event
5) the best backdrop for your news conference would be to have as many citizen lobbyists with signs as you can possibly muster standing behind your newsmakers
6) shoot for the stars but manage your expectations and remember that if you only have one speaker and one reporter…you made a difference!
Possible speaker sound bite talking points:  1) expected costs and impacts, 2) enforcement alternatives 3) RNC betrayal of principles, 4) the promise of enforcement, 5) 22 million unemployed Americans, 6) disposition of illegal aliens who do not become RPI’s, 7) border security, 8) 33 million new immigrants over the next decade, 9) terrorism and national security, 10) public welfare and environmental issues, 11) your Congressman’s view of S.744 12) unrealistic congressional timetable and process.  ALSO see “Bad for America” here, and “4 Big Problems With The Bill” here.
