Dollar-denominated risk assets, including asset-backed securities and corporates, are no longer wanted at the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), nor at China’s large commercial banks.

BUMPED: Amnesty Alert!! SEIU??

Posted on December 15, 2009 | Leave a comment

Next week, on Tuesday December 15th, Congressman Luis V. Gutierrez (D-IL) will introduce new legislation, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform for America’s Security and Prosperity Act of 2009 (CIR ASAP), to the U.S. House of Representatives.

How about, instead of amnesty, we introduce legislation that prevents anchor babies? (Meaning, just having a child born in the U.S. from an illegal immigrant does not extend automatic citizenship to either.)

That would be a start.

Call your Congressional Representative Today!

UPDATE: Told you so. But, surprise! SEIU in it, too!

Again, call your representatives !!!
