U.S. Business Moving to Keep Illegal Employees

Because it is ALL a FRAUD!!!!!

Here is BUSINESS giving you the HIGH, HARD ONE AGAIN!!!!


"Employers fight immigration rules; Firms seeking alternatives to crackdown" by Julia Preston, New York Times News Service | July 6, 2008

NEW YORK - Under pressure from the toughest crackdown on illegal immigration in two decades, employers across the country are fighting back in state legislatures, the federal courts, and city halls.

Business groups have resisted measures that would revoke the licenses of employers of illegal immigrants. They are proposing alternatives that would revise federal rules for verifying the identity documents of new hires and would expand programs to bring in legal immigrant laborers.

In Oklahoma, chambers of commerce went to federal court and last month won an order suspending sections of a 2007 state law that would require employers to use a federal database to check the immigration status of new hires.

Yeah, it is only the U.S. CITIZEN who needs his ass crawled up for a database!

Get your heads out of that poop chute, 'murkns!!!!!!

After years of laissez-faire enforcement, US immigration agents have been conducting raids at a brisk pace, with 4,940 arrests in workplaces last year. Although immigration has long been a federal issue, more than 175 bills were introduced in states this year concerning the employment of immigrants, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

State lawmakers said they had acted against businesses, often in response to fervent demands from voters, to curb job incentives that were attracting shadow populations of illegal immigrants.

Translation: DOING the JOB of the federal government and what the VOTERS!!!

And they get CRITICIZED for it!!!


"Illegal immigration is a threat to the safety of Missouri families and the security of their jobs," Governor Matt Blunt, a Republican, said after the Missouri Legislature passed a crackdown law in May. "I am pleased that lawmakers heeded my call to continue the fight where Washington has failed to act."

Better be careful, guv. The Globe will be calling you a racist!
