Meet Senator Daniel Webster ******
Mr. Webster like so many of his fellow Republicans seems to be apart of the repeal replace and eliminate social services like Tchers,Police,Firefighters group if they gain control of Congress …below is from his official website …
Sanctity of Life
- As affirmed in the Declaration of Independence, the right to life is our first right. Daniel Webster would support legislation that the Constitutional protections of life and liberty extend to the unborn.
- Dan would oppose any use of public revenues to promote or perform abortions or to support organizations that promote or perform abortions.
Immigration
- The greatness of America is based on the American dream– liberty and opportunity, a dream that is made possible by the laws of the land. Condoning illegal immigration through amnesty or allowing it through passive enforcement destroys the very values that attract immigrants to our nation.
- Fixing illegal immigration starts by securing our borders and strengthening existing penalties for people entering the country illegally. The federal government must remove incentives for illegal immigrants and strengthen penalties for employers who hire them.
- While immigration is a best treated as a federal issue, Daniel Webster supports the right of states like Arizona to enact such laws as necessary to protect their state.
Second Amendment
- Endorsed by the NRA with a lifetime A+ rating.
- Daniel Webster believes in the individual, Constitutional right to keep and bear arms and will strongly oppose any attempt to curtail, tax, or impede the free and robust exercise of that right.

On Tuesday, the Senate had the opportunity to move forward on the DREAM Act as part of the defense authorization bill. Instead, Senate Republicans blocked the debate from even starting. Not a single Republican senator was willing to stand up for the DREAM Act. You worked hard to get us to this point. You’ve sent tens of thousands of faxes to your senators on the DREAM Act. This week alone, you’ve made over 43,000 calls into Congress to tell them to support the DREAM Act as a step towards comprehensive immigration reform. Your power got us to this point. This fight isn’t over, and it’s thanks to you that we’ve gotten this far. Now we know who’s standing with us – and more importantly, we know who’s standing against us. The senators who stood in the way of the DREAM Act and immigration reform this week have shown that they’re not willing to work with us. It’s time for us to show them where we’ll be standing this Election Day. Make your voice heard on Election Day. It’s important that everyone who can vote shows up to the polls on November 2nd. It’s the best way for us to show the politicians and bureaucrats the power of our movement. Some of them recognize our power and have stood up for what’s right. And some have decided they want to ignore us. This Election Day, we must show them all what we’re capable of by turning out to vote in record numbers. Only when they see us voting will they hear our voices. Click here to make sure you’re ready to vote on November 2nd. Thank you,
