AMERICANS FOR PROSPERITY: Defending the American Dream Summit

This is a great conference! Hal and Raynor, Don and Nancy attended last year! ~ Lynn

The sixth annual Defending the American Dream Summit is coming to our nation's capital on August 2-4, 2012.

Join Congressman Paul Ryan and AEI President Arthur Brooks at the Washington Hilton Hotel in Washington, DC.


AFP Foundation's Summit will include leaders and experts who promote limited government, ensuring that our ideas turn the tide in the fight for economic freedom.

The other side knows the impact of our message. Last year Occupy DC tried to force entry into the convention center and block traffic, attempting to disrupt our peaceful gathering. But our ideas that enrich and empower society as a whole, are stronger than attacks from the Left.

Last year, we were joined by Presidential Candidates Mitt Romney and Herman Cain, in addition to top conservative radio host Mark Levin, Carly Fiorina, Jonah Goldberg, Ken Cuccinelli, James O'Keefe and more -- and with an equally stellar line-up on speakers this year, you won't want to miss out.

Early bird registration ends on July 6, and in North Carolina, a special bus package is available to attend the Summit. Click here to learn more and to purchase tickets on the bus making stops in North Carolina on the way to AFPF's Washington D.C. Summit. Your ticket includes the cost of bus travel, hotel, admission to the conference, our Friday evening Ronald Reagan tribute dinner, Saturday morning continental breakfast, and access to all general sessions and breakouts.

We can't wait to see you in Washington D.C. as we hear from top national leaders and experts in the field of economic liberty and freedom. Don't forget to follow the conversation on Twitter using hashtag #DREAM12 and join us and other great conservatives for an unforgettable weekend in our nation's capital!

Sincerely,
Dallas Woodhouse, State Director

PATRIOTS 28560: Lillian Creger

Occupy Wall Street Pushes Grandmother Down Stairs at Americans for Prosperity Defending the Dream Summit



November 7, 2011

I was fortunate to attend the Defending the American Dream summit two years ago but was unable to attend this year. My husband and I have had many conversations about the risk involved in participating in any TEA Party, Patriots or conservative event. And now it has happened. This violence will only escalate during the next 364 days. As law-abiding patriots our only recourse is to effect change at the ballot box. If you're not certain if you should become involved, then this video should be the catalyst to take action. Those who oppose the American Dream, who oppose freedom, who work toward socialism... will try and intimidate us with their rhetoric and with their actions. We must not be deterred by fear.

DEFENDING THE DREAM SUMMIT: Washington, DC on Nov. 4-5

Hi friends,

I got a call a couple of days ago about the Defending the Dream summit in Washington on Nov. 4-5.

The great news is there will be a bus leaving from New Bern. The price is $259 per person, and includes the bus trip, hotel room, two meals and entrance to all the summit events. It's a good deal. We went last year, and it was fantastic. The speakers included George Will, Herman Cain, and Michele Bachmann. I don't know who the speakers will be this year, but I'm sure they will be good.

Go to www.defendingthedream.org for more information and to register.

Let's get a big crowd to go from Eastern NC. Send this to everyone you know from this area.

Vice Chairman, CCTA

Study: Foreign-born workers gain 656,000 jobs

Americans Being Intentionally Replaced in Jobs With Immigrants Nationwide

This article and study supports ALIPAC's warning to America that Americans are being systematically replaced in our jobs, schools, health care facilities, homes, and ballot boxes as part of a coordinated plan by some elites to throw Americans out of power and into poverty or worse in our own nation.


We want to thank everyone once again that supported our 2010 campaign operations. We are very happy with our success despite several important races that did not go our way.

The evidence of election fraud is all over the place and many of our key activists and allied groups are looking into those matters as best we can. We believe that illegal aliens voted across America, especially in Nevada, on Nov 2. 2010.

Those of you that voted, paid attention to ALIPAC's endorsements, volunteered for campaigns, and donated to our operations and our candidates really made a great difference!

So many of you worked very hard and we want to make it very clear how much we appreciate your support and hard work!

Our major threat right now is that Harry Reid and the Democrats know that Comprehensive Immigration Reform Amnesty and Dream Act Amnesty are dead in the water for two years once the new members of the US House and Senate are sworn in during ceremonies in late January. ALIPAC hopes to set up an event for you to have the option of attending in DC for these historic events.

Members of Congress will reconvene for a few weeks starting around November 15, 2010. This short session between the elections and Christmas is called the 'Lame Duck' session.

Senator Harry Reid has made it very clear he plans to push for Amnesty again during the lame duck session in a desperate attempt to get amnesty through.

We hate to tell everyone this, but unfortunately Harry Reid and the other traitors do have a strong chance of passing Amnesty in the lame duck session.

But we have stopped them before several times and we will stop them again this time.

ALIPAC is an organization that now specializes in helping to stop Amnesty legislation on the state and federal level.

With your continued support and activism, we can hold them off until our new candidates can be sworn in. And if we can make it to that point, we will go on offense in the states and DC and by the time we are done, millions of illegal aliens will have left our nation!

Please rest up and get your affairs in order because the next round of political fighting will begin very soon!

Sincerely,
William Gheen and The ALIPAC Team

Study: Foreign-born workers gain 656,000 jobs

By Morgan Lee

Friday, October 29, 2010 at 10:46 p.m.

Immigrants have gained more than 600,000 jobs since the official end of the Great Recession in June 2009, according to a newly released study.

Native-born workers fared far worse, shedding 1.5 million jobs, according to an analysis by the Pew Hispanic Center of U.S. Census Bureau and Department of Labor data.

Foreign-born workers picked up 656,000 jobs over the 12-month period, driving down that population's unemployment rate half a point to 8.7 percent. Immigrant workers make up 15.7 percent of the labor force.

The gains, however, were not nearly enough to make up for 1.1 million jobs lost among immigrants from second-quarter 2008 through second-quarter 2009. And immigrants experienced a sharp decline in median weekly earnings -- down 4.5 percent., compared to a loss of less than 1 percent for the native born.

"The unemployment rate for immigrants is still more than double the rate prior to the recession when it stood at 4.0 percent in the second quarter of 2007," the study said.

Released on Friday, the report was not able to separately identify illegal immigrants because that status was not recorded in the source data. It found that Hispanic immigrants experienced the largest drop in earnings of all ethnic and racial groups.

The report focused on the period from the second quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2009, when most of the job losses during the recession occurred, and the subsequent 12 months that marked the first year of recovery from the recession.
