   I will for sure be at the protest in Memphis, TN. I’m so excited because I rarely get to attend these events. They are always too far away and during hours that I am working.

   I guess the new required training course for Border Patrol will be “labor and delivery” and to be sure they say “push” in Spanish…

   ‘DROPPING ANCHOR’: Pregnant Teenagers Are Now The Next Group That Will Surging Across The Border…

   “A lot” of pregnant juveniles have crossed the border into the Rio Grande Valley as part of the influx of Central American illegal immigrants, says Albert Spratte, the sergeant-at-arms of the National Border Patrol Council Local 3307 in the valley.

   “It’s not uncommon to see 16-, 17-year-old girls who are six to eight months pregnant,” Spratte tells National Review Online. Border Patrol agents do not appear to have kept statistics on the amount of pregnant teenagers traveling to the U.S., he says, but some arrive almost nine months pregnant.

   Other women arrive much earlier in their pregnancy. One Border Patrol agent working in the San Diego Sector tells NRO that the agent has not witnessed massive numbers of pregnant juveniles crossing in California, but he has run into several pregnant mothers crossing the border throughout the agent’s career. “I had one woman claim she was going into labor—we took her to the hospital; she wasn’t,” the agent says. “Doctor said she wasn’t going into labor, it was too early, but she was trying to stay to have the anchor baby.” The agent says the woman was ultimately deported back to Mexico safe and sound.

   Bob Dane, communications director for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, says he thinks pregnant alien minors could represent the next group of people to surge across the border. While he says he could not think of anything more dangerous to the wellbeing of a newborn child than the journey such minors would have to make, he says he thinks the trip would result in an “absolute success” for the teens. Dane says birthright citizenship represents a strong incentive for pregnant minors considering a journey to the United States, as the women know they will not be separated from their offspring.

   Boehner stated that nothing will be done this year about immigration reform. We all know this is because it’s an election year. Next year don’t be surprised when the House passes an immigration reform bill to appease the Chamber of Commerce.

   The Chamber of Commerce is a heavy hitter in contributing campaign donations to Republicans. If the electorate truly wants something done about this issue then they need to elect representatives that aren’t funded by the COC.

   According to the Chamber of Commerce:

   “America has had the opportunity to grow and thrive because we have attracted and welcomed the most talented and the hardest working people to our shores. The U.S. Chamber has collaborated with a variety of odd bedfellows including faith organizations, law enforcement, and ethnic groups to build a movement for common sense immigration reform that strengthens border security, expands the number of visas for high- and lesser-skilled workers, makes improvements to the federal employment verification system, and provides an earned lawful status for the undocumented with no future bar to citizenship. The door to the American dream must always remain open.”
