JUDGE ORDERS AUDIT OF EMPLOYERS - OBAMA says no! Let's just tell the people this crap and keep going as before UNEMPLOYMENT NOT AS HIGH AS ILLEGAL VOT

“What's needed to discourage illegal immigration into the United States has been known for years: Enforce existing law.” CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR


AIN’T IT ABOUT TIME!!!!

BUT DON’T WAGER THE FARM THERE WILL BE ANY REAL AUDIT! How many time have they lied to us. Dianne Feinstein has for a decade sent her constituents the same form letter expressing her concern about illegal immigration couched in language to suggest she’s worried sick about the Mexican invasion and occupation, even as she takes bribes from every big biz that benefits from depressed wages! Feinstein has called Americans “stupid” for not wanting to be annexed by NarcoMex!


Hispandering OBAMA, along with his harem of LA RAZA WHORES, Feinstein, Waxman, Lofgren, Pelsoi, Boxer, Reid and Napolitano have all vowed to SABOTAGE E-VERIFY, THE WALL, AND HAVE CONDEMNED ICE FOR ENFORCEMENT THE LAWS THAT PROHIBIT THE EMPLOYMENT OF ILLEGALS.

FEINSTEIN HAS LONG ILLEGALLY EMPLOYED ILLEGALS AT HER San Francisco HOTEL.

PELOSI HAS HUGE INVESTMENTS IN SUNKIST, A MAJOR EMPLOYER OF ILLEGALS, AND VOTES FOR ANYTHING THAT WOULD BENEFIT SUNKIST . SHE HAS LONG ILLEGALLY HIRED ILLEGALS AT HER ST. HELENA, NAPA WINERY, AS WELL AS WINE COUNTRY RESTAURANT.

IN MEXICAN OCCUPIED GANGLAND OF LOS ANGELES .... 47% OF THOSE WITH A JOB ARE ILLEGAL. FUCK UNEMPLOYMENT FOR LEGALS. THEY’RE HERE TO PAY THE TAXES FOR THE MEXICAN WELFARE STATE ONLY!

LOS ANGELES PAYS OUT $40 MILLION PER MONTH, YES MONTH, IN WELFARE TO ILLEGALS.

WINNING OUR COUNTRY BACK FROM NARCOMEX OCCUPATION WILL NOT BE EASY. ITS’ BEEN SINCE THE “AMNESTY” OF 1986 THAT EACH THESE LIFER-POLITICIANS HAVE SOLD US OUT AND LIED THROUGH THEIR ROTTEN TEETH ABOUT ENFORCING THE LAWS AS THEY WERE IN THE CORPORATE BACKROOMS SELLING US OUT TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED FOR THEIR BIG BIZ PAYMASTERS!

L.A. employers face immigration audits
Federal agency targets hiring practices in a nationwide inquiry.
By Anna Gorman

July 2, 2009

Federal officials Wednesday notified more than 650 businesses around the country, including nearly 50 in Los Angeles, that their records will be audited as part of a widening effort to find companies that hire illegal immigrants.

The number of notices issued is the largest ever in a single day and exceeds the total sent out in all of fiscal 2008, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said.

"Part of the strategy is to let businesses know we mean business," agency spokeswoman Pat Reilly said.

OBAMA’S ONLY CONNING US AGAIN WHEN IT COMES TO ENFORCEMENT! HE’S SABOTAGED EVERY BILL TO BRING ABOUT E-VERIFY.

The Obama administration has made tougher enforcement aimed at employers a cornerstone of its immigration policy. In April, the federal government issued new guidelines to immigration agents instructing them to focus on employers who hire illegal immigrants rather than just to arrest workers. The government is also working to improve and expand an employment verification program. The targeted companies, which include firms in New York, San Antonio, Seattle and San Diego, were identified through tips and leads, officials said.

The notices are the government's first step in what could be a lengthy investigation. Immigration agents plan to review the I-9 forms and identification documents at all 652 companies. Those with significant numbers of undocumented workers may be fined. And if agents believe the businesses knowingly hired illegal immigrants or find "a pattern of egregious violations," criminal investigations could be launched, Reilly said. The government did not release the names of any of the companies to be audited, but Reilly said they represent a broad range of industries.

OH, YIKES ALMIGHTY!!! 3 COMPANIES IN LOS ANGELES TO BE AUDITED. ONLY EIGHT STATES HAVE A GREATER POPULATION THAN LOS ANGELES, AND HERE 47% OF THOSE WITH A JOB ARE ILLEGALS. YOU CAN’T GO INTO ANY MAJOR RETAIL OR SERVICE BUSINESS AND FIND SOMEONE THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH!!!

The immigration agency also notified 80 companies, including three in Los Angeles, that it planned to fine them because they employ large numbers of people who do not appear to be authorized to work in the U.S. Immigration agents had earlier conducted audits on those companies' records and, in many cases, determined that the Social Security numbers listed for employees either did not exist or did not belong to the employees specified.

A government audit of one such company, Los Angeles-based American Apparel, showed that 1,600 of its roughly 10,000 employees may not be authorized to work and the employment status of 200 others could not be verified, according to Peter Schey, an attorney for the company. The fine, which could exceed $100,000, will become final in 30 days unless American Apparel requests a court hearing. If the company continues to employ people who have no work authorization, it could face criminal action.

Schey said the government audit, which began in early 2008, did not disclose any exploitation or any intent to violate immigration laws. American Apparel is working with the government and the company's employees to clear up the discrepancies, he said. The attorney said many of the issues may be a result of typographical errors or honest mistakes but that employees who cannot prove they are authorized to work will be let go.

"Any manufacturing company in an area with a large immigrant community is inevitably going to have employees using unauthorized documents," Schey said. "It doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine that. That is just a reality in life today in light of the broken immigration system."

EMPLOYERS HIRING UNWITTINGLY???? SUCH CRAP. WHEN JUAN GARCIA GETS A JOB, CAN’T EVEN SAY HELLO IN ENGLISH, AND HE’S FORTY-FIVE YEARS OLD, HE’S PROBABLY AN AMERICAN? THESE ILLEGALS DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE CAPITAL OF THE UNITED STATES IS. THEY THINK IT’S TIJUANA!

Businesses are forbidden by law to hire illegal immigrants but often do so unwittingly. Employers are required to review, and keep, identification and work authorization documents and to complete a form, called an I-9, recording that information for each employee. They are not required, however, to determine whether those documents are valid.

Companies can check the employment status of new hires through E-Verify, the online verification system, but the program is voluntary in California and most other states. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has called the program an "essential tool" for employers trying to maintain a legal workforce and is trying to expand its use across the country.

The new employment enforcement strategies, including the increased use of I-9 audits, mark a shift from the George W. Bush administration, said Stephen Lee, a professor at UC Irvine School of Law who has written about immigration enforcement against employers. Under President George W. Bush, work-site raids and arrests of illegal immigrant workers were common. The Obama administration has criticized those raids as ineffective and harmful to families.

"What is very clear is that the Obama administration is sending a signal," Lee said. "Gone are the days where only the unauthorized workers will be punished. Employers who hire these workers are going to be on the hook as well."

Lee said the pending audits may prompt unauthorized workers to go home and not return to work the next day. He said they could also result in more discrimination, as employers try to avoid hiring unauthorized immigrants and shy away from anyone who could be undocumented.

DEVASTATING TO THESE BUSINESS? THE REAL DEAL IS DEPRESSING WAGES. WHEN LEGAL ARE PAID LIVING WAGES, AND NOT UNDER THE COUNTER ( IN LOS ANGELES THE TAX-FREE UNDERGROUND ECONOMY IS CALCULATED TO BE $2 BILLION PER YEAR AND GROWING!) TAXES ARE PAID, DEFICITS GO DOWN, AND THERE’S MORE MONEY TO SQUANDER PAYING WELFARE TO MEXICAN FLAG WAVERS THAT HAVE CONTEMPT FOR THIS ONCE GREAT NATION!
YOU WANT TO SEE “DEVASTATION” JUST DRIVE THROUGH ANY COMMUNITY THE MEXICANS AND THEIR GANGS HAVE OCCUPIED. IF YOU DON’T GET SHOT, NOTE BUILDINGS DRENCHED IN GRAFFITI, BARS ON THE WINDOWS, CARS PARKED IN THE YARD, DOG RUN FENCES AROUND THE PROPERTY, AND TRASH EVERYWHERE. THAT IS THE DEVASTATION LEGALS UNDERSTAND!

Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce president and Chief Executive Gary Toebben said in a statement Wednesday that ICE should concentrate efforts on companies that have a "clear history of worker exploitation" of wage-and-hour and health-and-safety laws. "Mass enforcement actions against employers who are complying with their I-9 obligations can be devastating to these businesses and our overall economy," he said.

In any kind of work-site immigration enforcement, employees are particularly vulnerable, and the latest cases are no exception, said Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles. Salas said she was concerned that employers with pending audits would fear further immigration enforcement and fire workers, including those who have the legal right to work.

"At the end of the day, these workers are losing jobs," Salas said. "Instead of focusing so much attention on audits, the government should really focus on passing immigration reform."

L.A. attorney Carl Shusterman, who has represented numerous employers, said the audits may get unauthorized workers out of specific businesses but won't solve the problem of illegal immigration.

"If they are trying to drastically cut down on illegal immigrants living in the U.S.," he said, "the I-9 audits aren't effective, because the workers will just simply find another job."
ACTUALLY THE ABOVE WOULD NOT BE THE CASE ONCE EMPLOYERS OF ILLEGALS KNOW THEY’RE HEADED FOR PRISON! PUT A FEW IN JAIL, AND WATCH THE MEXICAN OCCUPATION END BY ATTRITION.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS CUT THE BULLSHIT!

WHY THE NEW JOBS GO TO IMMIGRANTS

By David R. Francis

Wall Street cheered and stock prices rose when the US Labor Department announced last Friday that employers had expanded their payrolls by 262,000 positions in February.
But it wasn't entirely good news. The statisticians also indicated that the share of the adult population holding jobs had slipped slightly from January to 62.3 percent. That's now two full percentage points below the level in the brief recession that began in March 2001.

Why the apparent contradiction? Reasons abound: population growth, rising retirements. But one factor that gets little attention is immigration. In the past four years, the number of immigrants into the US, legal and illegal, has closely matched the number of new jobs. That suggests newcomers have, in effect, snapped up all of the new jobs. "There has been no net job gain for natives," says Andrew Sum, an economist at Northeastern University.

Immigration bill sticker shock $127 BILLION (dated)
“WE ARE NOW JUST BEGINNING TO SEE A GLIMPSE OF THE STAGGERING BURDEN ON AMERICAN TAXPAYERS” OF THE MEXICAN INVASION.......

A government study puts the cost of the Senate's version of reform at $127 billion over 10 years.

By Gail Russell Chaddock - Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
WASHINGTON
The price tag for comprehensive immigration reform was not a key issue when the Senate passed its bill last May. But it is now.
One reason: It took the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) - the gold standard for determining what a bill will cost - until last week to estimate that federal spending for this vast and complex bill would hit $127 billion over the next 10 years.
At the same time, federal revenues would drop by about $79 billion, according to the CBO and the Joint Committee on Taxation. If lawmakers fix a tax glitch, that loss would be cut in half, they add.
In field hearings across the nation this month, House GOP leaders are zeroing in on the costs of the Senate bill. It's a bid to define the issue heading into fall elections and muster support for the House bill, which focuses on border security. They say that the more people know about the Senate version, including a path to citizenship for some 11 million people now in the country illegally, the less they will be inclined to support it.

“WE ARE NOW JUST BEGINNING TO SEE A GLIMPSE OF THE STAGGERING BURDEN ON AMERICAN TAXPAYERS” OF THE MEXICAN INVASION.......
"We are now just beginning to see a glimpse of the staggering burden on American taxpayers the Reid-Kennedy immigration legislation contains," said House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner, who convened a field hearing at the State House in Concord, N.H., Thursday on the costs of the Senate bill.
But business groups and others backing the Senate bill say that the cost to the US economy of not resolving the status of illegal immigrants and expanding guest-worker programs is higher still. "In my opinion, the fairer question is: How will illegal immigrants impact the costs of healthcare, local education, and social services without passage of comprehensive immigration reform?" said John Young, co-chairman of the Agriculture Coalition for Immigration Reform, at Thursday's hearing.
"Had we solved this problem in a truly comprehensive way in 1986 ... we would not have the daily news reporting outright shortages of farm labor threatening the very existence of agricultural industries coast to coast," he adds.

Experts are poring over the new CBO data - and coming up with radically different assessments of the social costs of reform, ranging from tens of billions of dollars higher to a net wash.
On the issue of border security - a feature in both bills - there is little disagreement. The CBO estimates that the cost of hardening US borders in the Senate bill is $78.3 billion over 10 years, or about 62 percent of the bill's total cost.
The fireworks involve new entitlement spending in the Senate version. The CBO sets the price tag for services for some 16 million new citizens and guest workers at $48.4 billion through fiscal year 2016. That includes $24.5 billion for earned income and child tax credits, $11.7 billion for Medicaid, $5.2 billion for Social Security, $3.7 billion for Medicare, and $2.4 billion for food stamps.
But it's easier to estimate the cost of a mile of fence than to assess the prospects for millions of workers, once they can work legally and claim benefits.

“THE AMNESTY ALONE WILL BE THE LARGEST EXPANSION OF THE WELFARE SYSTEM IN THE LAST 25 YEARS” Heritage Foundation

"The amnesty alone will be the largest expansion of the welfare system in the last 25 years," says Robert Rector, a senior analyst at the Heritage Foundation, and a witness at a House Judiciary Committee field hearing in San Diego Aug. 2. "Welfare costs will begin to hit their peak around 2021, because there are delays in citizenship. The very narrow time horizon [the CBO is] using is misleading," he adds. "If even a small fraction of those who come into the country stay and get on Medicaid, you're looking at costs of $20 billion or $30 billion per year."

Job Losses Dampen Hopes for Recovery
Unemployment Rises To 9.5%; Stocks Slide
By Neil Irwin
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, July 3, 2009
Mounting job losses rattled hopes yesterday that the economy is on track to grow later this year, showing that prospects for American workers are terrible -- and still getting worse.
Employers reduced their payrolls by 467,000 jobs in June, the Labor Department said, far more than forecasters had expected. The unemployment rate rose to 9.5 percent, from 9.4 percent. And last week, another 614,000 people applied for unemployment insurance benefits.
The number of job losses had decreased every month since January before spiking again in June, and economists think it is highly likely that the jobless rate will hit double-digits later this year. A broader measure of unemployment, which includes people working part time who want full-time work and those who have given up looking for a job, has already risen to 16.5 percent. The nation now has the same number of jobs it did in 2000, meaning that nine years of employment gains have disappeared.
The stock market fell steeply on the news yesterday, with the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index off 2.9 percent. European stock markets fell sharply as well, after the European Central Bank left its target interest rate unchanged and its president indicated that he expects a recovery to begin in the middle of next year. Investors have wanted the bank to fight the recession more aggressively, which it seems disinclined to do.
Until yesterday, economic forecasters and government officials had become increasingly enthusiastic about signs that the U.S. economy is stabilizing. Many had begun to think as the year progressed, layoffs would taper off, companies would crank up their assembly lines and the troubled U.S. economy would get back on a path toward growth.
While that's still a possibility -- economic indicators send mixed signals during turning points -- yesterday's data, combined with other recent information, undermine the idea that a recovery is imminent.
"This sprayed some Round-Up on the green shoots," said David Shulman, a senior economist at the UCLA Anderson Forecast, using a metaphor for signs of economic improvement that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke popularized in the spring.
"The economy is in the process of bottoming, but that's different from saying it's recovering," Shulman said.
Forecasts for expansion in the second half of the year depend on consumers increasing their spending -- an assumption that looks increasingly questionable. Even as consumers got larger paychecks due to the government's stimulus program in May, they saved that money rather than spent it. Wages were flat in June, according to yesterday's report. Finally, job losses are continuing at a furious pace, and people without jobs tend not to spend much money.
Consumers and businesses alike are more confident than they were in the winter, according to various surveys, and the stock market is up sharply since March. But improved confidence isn't enough to kick-start an economy undergoing painful adjustments that are leading to continued layoffs. Indeed, economists said the best hope for improvement is for economic stimulus spending to kick in more vigorously.
"We're stuck in a very disappointing scenario, with the private-sector economy looking like it's going to be weaker longer than most anyone expected," said John Silvia, chief economist of Wachovia Corp. "In the second half of the year, the federal government is really going to carry the water for the U.S. economy."
Republicans in Congress assailed the weak numbers as evidence that the Obama administration's $800 billion economic stimulus package isn't working. "Americans were promised the 'stimulus' would keep the unemployment rate from going above eight percent," House Minority Leader John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) said in a statement. "Where are the jobs?"
Independent economists generally think that it is too early to judge the effectiveness of the stimulus plan, given that the spending package is only starting to ripple through the broader economy.
Speaking in the Rose Garden yesterday, President Obama predicted that recovery will take a long time. "As I've said from the moment that I walked into the door of this White House, it took years for us to get into this mess, and it will take us more than a few months to turn it around," Obama said.
The June job losses were broad based, with the steepest cuts among manufacturers, which shed 136,000 positions; the auto industry and its suppliers slashed 26,500 jobs. But white-collar jobs were shed in large numbers as well, with the professional and business services sector cutting 118,000 positions, information cutting 21,000 and financial activities losing 27,000.
Even the federal government shed jobs, 49,000 of them, as the Census Bureau eliminated temporary positions. Education and health-care sectors were the only major drivers of growth, creating 34,000 positions.
There were positive signs in the report, though less apparent than the overall numbers. The rise in the unemployment rate was the smallest in a year, noted Bernard Baumohl of the Economic Outlook Group. And manufacturing overtime hours were stable, which can be an early sign of improvement. In a separate report yesterday, the Commerce Department said factory orders rose 1.2 percent in May, which was better than expected.
"The picture that is emerging with increasing clarity is of an economy that has undergone a wrenching recession the last 18 months but is now gradually transitioning into recovery," Baumohl said.
Staff writers Perry Bacon Jr. and Michael D. Shear contributed to this report.
