Amnesty For Illegal Aliens Crawls Forward In The Obama Administration
By Greg L | 12 June 2009 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens | 18 Comments
Our friends at the Federation For American Immigration Reform are deeply concerned that the Obama Administration and their liberal allies are trying to gut our laws prohibiting the employment of illegal aliens. They see this as the first step in welcoming millions more foreign nationals into the United States at the same time we’ve got unemployment rates exceeding what Obama told us the bailouts he scared Congress into passing were supposed to prevent. It’s time to start banging on our representatives to make it clear we cannot accept making it easier for illegal aliens to find jobs while nearly one out of ten Americans are unemployed!
In the coming days, maybe as soon as tomorrow, the Obama Administration will announce two regulations that will dramatically undermine immigration enforcement.
The first regulation would gut a Bush Administration rule that required federal contractors — paid with your tax dollars — to use the E-Verify program to ensure that their employees are legally authorized to work in the U.S. FAIR expects the Obama Administration to gut this rule so that illegal aliens who are currently working for federal contractors will be able to continue in those jobs. This would give job security to illegal aliens who work for federal contractors instead of freeing that job up so that an American worker could be hired. Last week, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that 14.5 million Americans are out of work.
The second regulation would gut another Bush Administration rule to provide “no-match” notices to employers who have reported paying wages to people whose name and Social Security number don’t match. As the Department of Homeland Security said in October: “One private study concluded that ‘most workers with unmatched SSNs are undocumented immigrants.’” The Bush Administration proposed a rule to instruct employers how to deal with the “no-match” letters to ensure that employers don’t continue to employ illegal aliens. By gutting this rule, not only would illegal aliens be allowed to continue in their jobs but the Obama Administration would also be turning a blind eye to those illegal aliens who are committing felony identity theft by using the Social Security number of an American citizen or legal immigrant!
To learn more about what FAIR expects the proposed rules to look like, check out FAIR’s blog, The Stein Report, here.
Time to saddle up, again. Congress is out of control, and the administration is making things worse! I called the DHS public comment line intending to comment on what they’re doing today a few times and couldn’t get through because of the volume of calls. We need to keep that pressure up, so our public officials truly understand how riduculous they are in trying to make it easier for illegal aliens to get and hold jobs while so many American families are in such dire straits.
Just how much of this taxpayer-funded “stimulus” money is being paid to illegal aliens, and how much more will be given to them if such ridiculous rules are adopted?

I’ve got my application for Canadian citizenship. Can you grill baby seals?
I do not like this, but if the Bush rule was so effective, then there would not be any illegal’s working on Federal Contracts right now, right! So, we should be in the clear.
Yeah, and the governor of California doesn’t think illegal immigration is a problem. Anyone who has been to LA in the last couple of years would think otherwise! This is getting way out of control. When is enough enough? Must we house and support the population of the entire world, all of which will get preferential treatment as minorities? Half the kids at Westgate Elementary are getting free or subsidized lunches, and you know the parents are getting handouts at home as well. Why are we extending royalty status to those entering our country illegally, yet mistreating our citizens with increased taxes and unemployment as if we owe these trespassers anything? Bye bye American pie!

Because we are becoming a nation of morons. Arnie refused to cut 3 billion dollars from the California budget that goes to supporting illegal aliens. Yet he is looking for more handouts from the federal government. Good luck, Arnie, you deserve to sink into the ocean!
California the Golden state, American future, is fast becoming the poster child for an bankrupt third world State!
An unholy alliance of Socialist Democrat politicians, Unions, and Illegal Aliens supporters are feasting at the trough of tax payers paid benefits while taxing & regulating business and the tax paying public into poverty.
The pandering of Left Wing Democrat Politicians to their constituency of Illegal Aliens, open border supporters, and unions are driving business and citizens to other states & countries, while leaving the parasites & welfare leeches in an increasing bankrupt, crime ridden, dysfunctional state!
For years California has ignored economics 101 and imported poverty, Criminals and uneducated Peons from Mexico, which increased Medical, Welfare, Crime, Prison, etc. & adding a estimated 16 billion per year to Calif. State expense to provide for the invading horde of Illegal Aliens while exporting business and educated working tax payers.
Like all Socialist & Marxist States the results have been a astronomical increase in social welfare, schooling, Crime, Prison cost etc. and a lowing of Living standards, Education standards, Tax receipts & finally Bankruptcy.
Failure to abide by our Constitution against invasion & enforce our Immigration laws and constraints on wages and benefits for public employees will result in turning the Golden State into MexiCalif and the end of the California dream!
The policies of Obama and Wash. DC Democrats are intent on following Calif. policies and are resulting in the same creeping socialist process across American.
Amnesty & Citizenship as a reward for their invasion of the USA, will result in the rest of the USA turned into a Spanish speaking third world cesspool, modeled on Mexico and follow California into a polluted, over populated, Spanish speaking third world Nation of Crime, Corruption, Poverty, Cruelly & Misery!
This will result in a population depending on Welfare and the Democrat party, thus assuring the lock on power for the Socialist Democrat party of the United States of Mexico!
Yep, another 20-30 million added to the entitlement roles (welfare, Medicare/Medicaide, Social Security and the proposed health care system. Then they can bring in their relatives which will add another 100 million to the role. Obamarama has his head you know where. We’re sinking fast and no one has a life jacket.
The situation is ugly now. But, once this large army of tax absorbers starts absorbing and demanding more resources than can be produced by our wrecked system, you will then see and experience real chaos.
Of course, real survivalists will do what they do: survive!

WE NEED ALL OF YOU TO MAKE THEIR PHONES RING OFF THE HOOK — BLAST OBEY, PRICE AND WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ FOR REJECTING E-VERIFY AND FAVORING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!!!
We need you to call the following Members of Congress who spoke against E-Verify TODAY:
Rep. David Price: (202) 225-1784
Rep. David Obey: (202) 225-3365
Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz: (202) 225-7931
Tell these Members that they need to get their facts straight. Tell them:
14.5 million Americans are out of work and millions more are underemployed.
Americans, not illegal aliens, should be hired for any available jobs.
E-Verify is highly effective, and it works to protect American jobs!!!
Congress needs to start standing up for American workers, and not special interests!!
Also, please call Rep. Calvert and Rep. Kingston, and thank them for standing up on behalf of American Workers!
Rep. Ken Calvert: (202) 225-1986
Rep. Jack Kingston: (202) 225-5831
Earlier Today, House Appropriators Rejected E-Verify Amendments; Reps. Price, Obey, and Wasserman-Schultz Spoke Against These Provisions
Earlier this morning, the House Appropriations Committee met to write the annual Homeland Security spending bill and the annual bill that funds Congress for the coming year. At the “mark-up,” the Committee rejected two E-Verify related amendments to the Homeland Security bill and another related to the Legislative Branch spending bill. E-Verify is an electronically operated system that ensures American jobs go to American workers by allowing employers to quickly check the work authorization status of their new hires.
Rep. Ken Calvert (R-CA) — a true immigration reformer — offered an amendment to the Homeland Security bill to extend E-Verify. While that bill already contains a short, two-year reauthorization of E-Verify, Congressman Calvert knows the true value of the program and sought a longer extension of E-Verify. After Calvert spoke in support of his amendment, Appropriations Homeland Security Subcommittee Chairman, Rep. David Price (D-NC), spoke against the amendment. Rep. Price urged the entire Committee to vote against the amendment. Then, the Committee Chairman, Rep. David Obey (D-WI), spoke against the amendment, as well. Obey argued that the Homeland Security spending bill shouldn’t contain an E-Verify authorization at all!
Immediately following the rejection of the Calvert Amendment, another true immigration reformer — Representative Jack Kingston (R-GA) — offered an amendment to the Homeland Security bill to require companies who contract with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to use E-Verify. This common sense amendment would have ensured that contractors who do business with DHS — the same agency tasked with enforcing our immigration laws — do not hire illegal aliens. Congressman Price AGAIN spoke in opposition to the Kingston amendment, erroneously claiming that E-Verify is inaccurate and that the program would be unable to handle the expansion to DHS contractors. Even though Congressman Kingston pointed out that DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano stated last month that the program could indeed handle a large-scale expansion, and that the program has an incredible accuracy rate of 99.6%, the House Appropriations Committee still rejected the amendment!
Later in the morning, Congressman Kingston attempted to attach a similar E-Verify amendment to the Legislative Branch spending bill. This provision would have required contractors who do business with the U.S. Congress to use E-Verify. This time, Appropriations Legislative Branch Subcommittee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) urged the Committee to reject the Kingston Amendment.
In speaking out against these amendments, Reps. Price, Obey, and Wasserman-Schultz effectively urged their colleagues to not only put the E-Verify program in jeopardy, but also ensure that illegal aliens can continue to work on federal contracts with DHS and the U.S. Congress!

“Undocumented immigrants in Arizona could face jail terms for simply being in the state under a series of bills gathering momentum in the state legislature.”
This is what we need all states to start supporting! Virginia needs to take action along these lines now! We must press the candidates for governor on this very issue and make them choose their CLEAR position on these matters. No gray areas!

“SOUTHEAST - Zacaria Conses-Garcia, the man police say was drunk when he struck and killed a mother and her young daughter as they were walking out of the child’s dance class Monday, often had a white pickup truck with Florida plates parked outside his Southeast home, neighbors said.”
Anyone who supports amnesty (aka pathway to citizenship) for illegal immigrants and/or aids and abets them is directly part of the problem that results in the horrific story above! This is both sad and absolutely RIDICULOUS! No more boo hoo stories about how hard illegal immigrant lives are….what about their victims!
One cannot be political correct and admit that Illegal Aliens are an large part of the problems in this Nation.
Their negative impact extends to every area from Sub-par loans & defaults, Underground economy, Massive document fraud, Lower standard of living, Crime, Overflowing prisons , Bankrupted hospitals, Failing schools, Property Taxes, Insurance costs, Environment, Culture, Welfare costs, Welfare fraud, SS fraud, Voter fraud, Disrespect for our laws & country, our Constitution against invasion and even Balance of payments occurring from oil and other imports to support the 20 to 30 million illegal aliens in this country!
One has to only look at Calif. which is basically mostly an Spanish speaking, Bankrupt state that cannot afford to provide Welfare, Schooling, Medical, Prison cells etc. for millions of MS-13 Gang bangers, Drug dealers, Rapist and other assorted Criminals and uneducated, fast breeding, third world rejects from Mexico!
In a very few years it will be impossible to see where Mexico ends and Calif. begins as both will be an third world cesspool!
Failure to secure our borders and reward the Invading horde for their invasion and their relatives in an never ending chain with American Citizenship is nothing less than committing National Suicide & will assure our future is an over populated Spanish speaking third world Nation that is an Cesspool of Corruption, Crime, Poverty and Misery modeled on Mexico!
The Reagan administration passed a badly flawed amnesty bill
in 1986. Bush II and McCain pushed like hell for another one
several years ago. Now the Obama “plan”. This monster
has been fed by both major political parties.
No Amnesty (aka Pathway to Citizenship). I only support Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement (enforcing our existing laws like Sheriff Joe - they do work if you actually enforce them).

“The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has arrested 14 suspected illegal immigrants who worked at a car wash at 30th Street and Indian School Road in Phoenix.”
Need I say more? Again, as usual, Sheriff Joe getting things done! Chief Deane…WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? GET BUSY!!!
Sheriff Joe cares about ridding his county of illegal aliens.
Sheriff Joe will be on Lou Dobbs tonight (19 June) at 7:00 pm with “big” Al Sharpieton (the holy man) going head-to-head.
The age-old pesky U.S.-Mexico border problem has taxed the resources of both countries, led to long lists of injustices, and appears to be heading only for worse troubles in the future. Guess what? The border problem can never be solved. Why? Because the border IS the problem! It’s time for a paradigm change.
Never fear, a satisfying, comprehensive solution is within reach: the Megamerge Dissolution Solution. Simply dissolve the border along with the failed Mexican government, and megamerge the two countries under U.S. law, with mass free 2-way migration eventually equalizing the development and opportunities permanently, with justice and without racism, and without threatening U.S. sovereignty or basic principles.
For details, Google “Megamerge Dissolution Solution”, or click url.
