Illegal Alien Says Drug Sentence Too Cruel
Last Updated: Mon, 12/28/2009 - 4:03pm
A thrice-convicted illegal immigrant drug dealer long protected by a sanctuary state is frantically trying to evade a life prison sentence by arguing that it’s “cruel and unusual punishment” in his native Mexico.
In a classic only-in-America fable, the illegal alien (Vicente Corona) had previously been deported after one of the convictions but returned to the U.S. to continue peddling cocaine for Mexican drug cartels. He operated his criminal enterprise in California, which offers illegal immigrants sanctuary, and was protected from deportation after two state drug convictions.
A separate federal conviction actually got the Mexican illegal immigrant deported in the early 1990s, but he returned to his beloved Golden State where he remained for years before getting busted again on federal charges and subsequently convicted in a massive mail order cocaine conspiracy.
The conviction means a mandatory life sentence for Corona who was found guilty last year by a federal jury in Tennessee of supplying a network that funneled through the mail millions of dollars in cocaine from California to Knoxville. A federal judge flatly rejected Corona’s pathetic argument this week that life in prison is cruel and unusual punishment.
U.S. District Judge Thomas Phillips said the illegal immigrant should have stayed in Mexico the first time he got deported from the United States if he wanted to escape the nation’s drug laws, pointing out that he illegally re-entered the country and continued his drug distribution activities. Corona is scheduled to be sentenced in March.
Illegal immigrants have taken bold actions in U.S. courts over the years, suing the government for discrimination and law enforcement agencies for racial profiling and civil rights violations. Just last month an illegal immigrant from El Salvador sued a Maryland sheriff’s department for violating her constitutional rights by detaining her based on her ethnicity and a few months ago a group of illegal aliens in Connecticut sued the federal agents that arrested them, claiming their constitutional rights were violated in the raids that led to their apprehension.

English Learners and Immigration: A Case Study of Prince George’s County, Maryland


Even while Maryland’s population has grown over the last decade, the number of students in the state’s public schools has declined. At the same time, the number of students in Maryland schools who are not proficient in English has more than doubled.

The rapid increase in students who struggle to comprehend and communicate in English is an unwelcome cost burden for Maryland taxpayers. Furthermore, the money spent to teach students basic English-language skills depletes the resources available to fund educational programs for the children of native-born Marylanders.

Immigration patterns in Maryland also add to the strain on local schools. The overwhelming majority of students who lack proficiency in English are enrolled in public schools in the Washington, D.C. metro area. This report examines the impact that non-English speaking students are having on Prince George’s County, where this population has grown by 96 percent just between 2004 and 2008 while overall student enrollment has decreased by almost 7 percent.

Prince George’s County has one-third of all English-language learner students in the state of Maryland, and more then one in ten students in the County’s public schools are not proficient in English. In its current school budget Prince George’s County has allocated a total of $60.2 million for the education of Limited English Proficient (LEP) students, though the total costs of these students is much higher. Based on the Prince George’s Board of Education’s budget for fiscal year 2010, the amount spent on LEP education could likely be over $300 million.

Not to be lost in the discussion of the dollar cost of LEP education is the impact that non-English speaking students have on the quality of education for the children of native-born Marylanders. While this is hard to quantify, it is a question that should not be ignored. Prince George’s County schools have consistently ranked at the bottom in state assessments of student performance and it is currently the only county that Maryland’s Department of Education has marked for “corrective action.” As the proportion of non-English speaking students continues to grow, Prince George’s County schools will find it increasingly more difficult to provide its students with a quality education.

The Costs of Illegal Immigration to Marylanders

Maryland has a fast growing illegal alien population of about a quarter million persons, more than quadrupling since 2000. Between 2000 and 2008, the state’s foreign-born population has grown by 34.6 percent while its native-born population has increased by 3.3 percent. . Public school enrollment of students who require special instruction in English has soared even more, rising by 93.5 percent from 2000 to 2008 while overall enrollment declined slightly.
This illegal alien population represents a major burden on the state budget and is borne by Maryland’s taxpayers. The costs imposed on law-abiding Marylanders are unfair and unwelcome even in the best of times, but are especially burdensome at a time when the state has been cutting jobs and funding for schools and health care. Furthermore, the state is facing what the Maryland Budget and Tax Policy Institute projects will be a $2 billion deficit in the 2010 budget.
In 2008, the foreign-born population in Maryland represented nearly one in every eight residents (12.4%), and illegal aliens constituted more than one-third of that immigrant population. This illegal immigrant population costs the state’s taxpayers more than $1.4 billion per year for education, medical care and incarceration. The annual fiscal burden amounts to about $790 per Maryland household headed by a native-born resident.
In addition to the fiscal cost estimates in this study, there are additional burdens caused by illegal aliens, i.e., foreign remittances that they sent abroad constitute a major drain on the state’s economy. The Inter-American Development Bank estimated that remittances from Maryland just to Latin America and the Caribbean amounted to $921 million in 2006. If this amount had been earned by American workers, it would have been spent locally, and it would have generated sales, production and jobs in the state as well as increased tax collection.
The more than $1.4 billion dollars in costs incurred by Maryland taxpayers annually result from outlays in the following areas:
Education
Based on estimates of the illegal immigrant population in Maryland and documented costs of K-12 schooling, Marylanders spend more than $966 million annually on education for an estimated 80,800 children of illegal aliens. An additional amount of nearly $250 million is spent on providing special English instruction to an estimated 35,000 children of illegal aliens. About 9.6 percent of the K-12 public school students in Maryland are children of illegal aliens.
Health Care
Taxpayer-funded, unreimbursed medical outlays for health care provided to the state’s illegal alien population amount to about $167 million a year.
Incarceration
The cost of incarcerating illegal aliens in Maryland’s state and county prisons amounts to about $29 million a year not including related law enforcement and judicial expenses or the monetary costs of the crimes that led to the incarceration.
Some state and local taxes are received from illegal immigrants even from those working off the books. But, those same tax collections, or more likely an increased amount, would occur if the jobs were done by legal workers. So, unless it is illogically assumed that no legal U.S. or immigrant or foreign guest worker would do the jobs now done by illegal workers, it makes little sense to consider this a true offset to the tax burden. The estimated amount of the taxes currently collected from Maryland’s illegal workers is about $204 million per year.
These fiscal costs would be considerably higher if other cost areas such as assistance programs for needy families or welfare benefits for American workers displaced by illegal alien workers or resulting from depressed wages were included in the calculation.
The current proposal to adopt an amnesty for the illegal aliens would not lessen the burden if enacted. Rather, it would increase the access of this population to additional social welfare benefits and allow them to legally apply for the state’s reverse tax benefit known as the Earned Income Tax Credit.
These costs are not inevitable. State and local policymakers have several means at their disposal to discourage settlement of illegal aliens. Maryland and some local jurisdictions, on the other hand, are permissive towards illegal immigration. Marylanders concerned about the impact on their state and local communities should demand an end to those policies.

OBAMA'S NEWEST SELLOUT: Amnesty Means Illegals' Votes!

White House prepares for immigration overhaul battle
The Obama administration is rallying allies to push for a package with better border security and a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants now in the U.S. The effort is sure to be a tough sell.
By Peter Nicholas and Tom Hamburger
December 30, 2009
Reporting from Washington
With the healthcare battle still unfinished, the Obama administration has been laying plans to take up an issue that could prove even more divisive -- a major overhaul of the nation's immigration system.

Senior White House aides privately have assured Latino activists that the president will back legislation next year to provide a path to citizenship for the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants living in the United States.

In a recent conference call with proponents, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina, political director Patrick Gaspard and others delivered the message that the White House was committed to seeing a substantial immigration bill pass and wanted to make sure allies were prepared for the fight.

In addition to the citizenship provision, the emerging plan will emphasize efforts to secure U.S. borders against those trying to cross illegally. But that two-track approach was rejected repeatedly in the past by Republicans and other critics who insist that a border crackdown must demonstrate its effectiveness before any action on citizenship is considered.

Whatever proposal Obama puts forward will probably meet equally determined opposition. Another complication is the calendar: Midterm elections are in November, and polls show that the public is more worried about joblessness and the fragile economy than anything else.

So embracing an immigration bill is a gamble for the White House, which already has a packed agenda for 2010: economic recovery, global warming legislation and tougher regulation of financial institutions.

No matter what the environment, immigration is a tough sell, said Democratic pollster Geoff Garin.

"We know from a lot of experience that immigration reform has been and can be a very polarizing issue. There are heated differences about whether there ought to be some kind of pathway to citizenship for people who entered the country illegally," he said.

"And my sense from the public-opinion research is people care more about vindicating their position than they do about getting the issue solved."

Even so, the White House apparently has decided to press ahead.

In an effort to enlist the kind of business support that helped drive its healthcare initiative, for example, administration officials have reached out to the National Restaurant Assn., which represents an industry that employs thousands of immigrants. Earlier this year, the new head of the association, Dawn Sweeney, met with Cecilia Muñoz, a White House aide involved in the issue, and expressed interest in cooperating.

"It's an extremely important issue for our members," said Sweeney, whose group could exert grass-roots pressure on lawmakers.

As a candidate, Obama vowed to take up immigration during his first year in office. That deadline will come and go. Further delay could anger Latino voters, who came out in force for the president and congressional Democrats in 2008.

No one anticipates that a core element of the Democratic base will defect to the Republican Party in November. But even a significant drop in turnout -- which often happens in nonpresidential elections -- could frustrate Democratic efforts to preserve their congressional majority.

"The bulk of the people needing immigration reform are Latino," said Rep. Raul M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.). "There's a level of disenchantment about where we're going. . . . And if you don't give the Latino community a reason to participate [in the elections], you weaken your base even more."

For an immigration bill to have a realistic shot of passing next year, political analysts said, the particulars would have to be agreed upon by the spring. A delay would increase the likelihood of the issue getting derailed by the November elections.

Henry G. Cisneros, a Cabinet secretary in the Clinton administration who took part in the recent immigration conference call with the Obama White House, said: "It gets much more difficult as the year goes along. So everyone has to be very sober about the prospects. But the president and congressional leadership understand it's important to start the ball rolling."

An immigration bill was introduced in the House earlier in the month, and Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.), who chairs a subcommittee on immigration, is heading the effort to cobble together a bipartisan coalition in the Senate.

But Democrats may not have a lock on one prominent Republican who has worked in the past to revamp the immigration system: Arizona Sen. John McCain.

McCain backed President George W. Bush's failed attempt to overhaul immigration in his second term. But he has not committed to supporting the Obama bill, saying he worried the president would not endorse a temporary guest-worker program.

Organized labor, an important part of the Democratic base, has voiced opposition to a guest-worker program under which more immigrants could enter the country on a temporary basis. Critics argue that there is no effective system for ensuring that such workers will leave the country when their permits expire.

"From everything that we hear right now, the temporary guest-worker program won't be addressed in immigration reform. And unless that is an essential part of the reform program, it's something that Sen. McCain can't work on," said Brooke Buchanan, a spokeswoman for the Arizona lawmaker.

The White House would not reveal its position on the guest-worker issue.

Should an immigration bill gain traction, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel would probably be a central player in the negotiations.

As an aide to President Clinton, Emanuel co-wrote a memo on the political dynamics of immigration. He and Ron Klain, now the top aide to Vice President Joe Biden, wrote in 1994: "We must be seen as taking proper, forceful steps to seriously address the immigration problem without alienating the Hispanic and civil rights constituencies.

"Our goal is not to outdo the Republicans, rather to use our achievements and proposals to prevent them from using this as a wedge issue against us."

The former head of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, Doris Meissner, recalled that Emanuel once phoned and berated her over a news story about lax border enforcement in Arizona.

"This kind of press is killing us," Meissner quoted Emanuel as saying. During the call, he instructed her to send border agents to the area immediately. "He had no authority whatsoever to give me orders," Meissner said.

But Emanuel was constantly pressing his colleagues in the Clinton White House to push what he termed a "balanced" immigration policy -- including enforcement and stepped-up grants of citizenship.

NAPOLITANO - LA RAZA'S PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP

Napolitano Urges Action on Amnesty in 2010, Falsely Claims Progress in Fighting Illegal Immigration
In an address before the pro-amnesty Center for American Progress (CAP), Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano signaled the Obama administration’s support for legislation that would include amnesty for current illegal aliens and increases in the overall flow of immigration into the U.S. Napolitano also expressed support for improved immigration enforcement — despite actions taken by her department that have dramatically curtailed enforcement.
In her Nov. 13 speech, Napolitano described the administration’s vision of immigration reform as a “three-legged stool.” The legislation must include “a commitment to serious and effective enforcement, improved legal flows for families and workers, and a firm but fair way to deal with those who are already here,” she said.
Acknowledging that previous attempts to enact amnesty for illegal aliens have been hampered by a lack of public confidence that the government would act in any meaningful way to prevent future illegal immigration, Napolitano sought to assure the public that this time things would be different. She asserted that “the security of the Southwest border has been transformed from where it was in 2007.” Furthermore, the transformation has not been limited to the border, she claimed. “[W]e’ve transformed worksite enforcement to truly address the demand side of illegal immigration.”
Based on these claims of improved enforcement, Napolitano urged Congress to move ahead with amnesty for illegal aliens and increases in the admission of both family- and employment-based immigration. “We need Congress to create the legal foundation for bringing the millions of illegal immigrants in this country out of the shadows,” said Napolitano. “We need carefully crafted programs that allow American businesses to hire needed foreign workers,” she continued. “Our immigration system is outdated where families are concerned, and we need to modernize and streamline the laws governing this process.”
While amnesty for illegal aliens and increases in government regulated immigration would not be justified even if the administration actually were enforcing immigration laws as they claim, the facts demonstrate that they are not. In fact, as FAIR has repeatedly pointed out, the Obama administration has systematically weakened all aspects of immigration enforcement, and there is no reason for the public to feel confident that promises of future enforcement would be kept.
America’s borders are anything but secure. By the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) own admission, a mere 894 miles of border or coastline are under “effective control,” out of the total 8,607 miles that the department is charged with protecting. Moreover, DHS has no plans to secure even one additional mile during the current fiscal year.
There has also been dramatic regression in virtually all areas of interior immigration enforcement under Napolitano’s leadership. According to DHS data released on Nov. 18, arrests, indictments and convictions of immigration law violators have all fallen by more than half during 2009. [See sidebar story.]
FAIR takes seriously the threat of a major legislative effort to enact amnesty and immigration increases in 2010. We have already begun to educate the American public about the false claims being made by the administration about its enforcement record and the devastating impact that amnesty and increased immigration would have on the American people. We urge all members and supporters to go to FAIR’s website, www.fairus.org, to sign up for legislative alerts so that you can be prepared to oppose any effort to enact amnesty in 2010.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Gunmen killed the chief police investigator in the northern Mexican state of Sinaloa hours after he started investigating the kidnapping of a local radio journalist, Mexican media reported Friday.
Linea Directa radio station said its reporter, Jose Luis Romero, was kidnapped by armed men in the city of Los Mochis. Hours later, gunmen killed Jesus Escalante, the chief of investigations for the Sinaloa state police, Linea Directa and El Universal newspapers reported.

Sinaloa state Attorney General Alfredo Higuera told local media the two cases could be linked. Phones rang unanswered on the New Year's Day holiday, at the attorney general's offices.

Local media described Romero, 40, as a crime reporter for Linea Directa. Reports said he was kidnapped at a restaurant by armed men who forced him into a car.

Sinaloa, a stronghold of the drug trafficking cartel by the same name, is one of Mexico's most violent states.

Mexico is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists. The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalist says at least 17 reporters have been murdered in Mexico since 1992 in direct reprisal for their work.

COST OF MEXICAN OCCUPATION - How About the Cost To Our Culture?

In 2003, according to the Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles, 57,600 cars were stolen in Phoenix. It is now the car-jacking capital of the world. Most were SUV’s and pickup trucks. At a conservative average of $15,000.00 per vehicle, owner losses exceeded $864 million. Insurance companies in the state suffered incredible claims from policyholders. Arizona is the temporary home of 500,000 illegal aliens. They cost Arizona taxpayers over $1 billion annually in services for schools, medical care, welfare anchor babies, loss of tax base and prisons. Illegals use those vehicles for smuggling more people and drugs from around the world into our country. When the vehicles are recovered, they are smashed-up wrecks in the desert. If not found, they have new owners south of the border as thieves drive the cars through the desert and into Mexico as easily as you drive your kids to soccer practice. Illegal aliens displaced American workers at a cost in excess of $133 billion dollars last year according to Harvard Professor George Borjas. American citizens: College and high school kids cannot find a summer job in yard care, landscape, fast food or service jobs. Why? Illegal aliens work them at a third the wage and often, under the table. Not only do young American not have jobs; their parents are paying taxes for illegal aliens who are not paying taxes. Annually, 75 percent of drugs arrive from Mexico at a net cost of $120 billion hard currency that leaves our country for good. In addition, our tax dollars pay $80 billion for the War on Drugs each year. It is a war that hasn’t been won in the past 30 years and drugs are as available today to your teenager as they were in 1970. When an alien criminal gets caught for rape, murder or drug distribution, you pay $1.6 billion annually in prison costs to house, feed and clothe those filling 30 percent of our federal and state prisons—not to mention TV, movies, weight rooms and other entertainment—they enjoy while being incarcerated. Over 300,000 women annually arrive pregnant and drop them on U.S. soil. The American taxpayer pays for food, housing, medical and schooling for them to age 18 PLUS their mother. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, average annual cost per child K-12 is $7,161.00 and exceeds $109 billion annually per cycle of anchor babies. The average head of household illegal alien costs you $2,700.00 in welfare money over and above any taxes he or she pays in their meager paying jobs. With 15 to 20 million illegal aliens in the USA, that figures exceeds $20 billion of your tax dollars. (Source: Center for Immigration Studies, August 2004) How about the $56 billion in pure cash illegal migrants sent to their home countries last year and every year? That’s after their kids enjoyed free education, free lunches, and free medical care paid for by you. Mexico receives $15 billion annually from its worker drones. No wonder Vicente Fox sent us 9.2 million illegal alien Mexicans so far. The lifetime net fiscal drain—taxes paid minus services used—for an adult immigrant is $55,200.00 according to Carrying Capacity Network. With a minimum of 15 million illegal aliens in our country, these figures are the tip of the iceberg. Average bilingual education is $1,200.00 per illegal alien student. Get this! We educate 1.1 million illegal alien children each year. The American public has paid $27 billion to provide forms, ballots, interpreters, and brochures for languages other than English in 2003. An estimated one-third to one-half illegal aliens work off the books. It costs $200 million to provide for emergency health care for illegal aliens in the Border States annually. California with over three million illegals paid $79 million, and four of their major LA hospitals bankrupted and shut their doors in 2004. Texas with 1.5 million illegal aliens paid $74 million in hospital care. Georgia ran a $63 million deficit for 64,000 unpaid doctor visits to their Grady Health Care system in 2002. Georgia taxpayers paid $27 million for 11,188 anchor baby hospital births. Georgia taxpayers paid a whopping $242 million for educating illegal alien kids in 2003. What are the consequences? One in two adult African-Americans in New York is unemployed. African-American children’s poverty grew by 50 percent since 1999. Why? Their dads can’t find work. It costs the taxpayer, $68 billion a year to pay for the resettlement of legal immigrants. Only 22 companies in 2003 were taken to court for hiring illegal aliens. None went to jail. However, it’s a $10,000.00 fine per illegal alien hired and up to five years in prison. You would think that would deter corporations. Not when they’ve bought off enforcement! Who else figures in this grand scheme? Your governors and mayors who provide sanctuary laws for illegal aliens! Mayor Bloomberg of New York City, Governor Baldacci of Maine! Governor Bill Owens of Colorado! Mayor Hickenlooper of Denver! Mayor of Los Angeles! The Mayor of San Francisco! The Mayor of Chicago! The Mayor of Miami! How do we know? All those cities and dozens more give sanctuary to illegal aliens with Special Order 40. Illegals remain in our country with exemption from arrest—yet, they are federal criminals! A national consensus on immigration is clear from the wide range of polls on the issue over the past several years: By overwhelming margins, Americans want to cut back drastically on immigration—not bring in new immigrants or legalize those who are already here illegally. Limiting immigration has the overwhelming support of most Americans, regardless of party affiliation or race. • 65% of voters favor stopping all immigration into the U.S. during the war on terrorism. • 92% of voters favor “imposing stricter immigration and border crossing polices.” • 84% of Americans support tighter restrictions on immigration. • 77% think the government is not doing enough “to control the border and to screen people allowed into the country”. • 85% strongly/somewhat agree “that enforcement of immigration laws and the border has been too lax and has made it easier for the terrorists to enter”. • 72% think that “a dramatic increase in resources devoted to border control and enforcement of immigration laws would help reduce the chances of future terrorist attacks”. • Six in ten Americans support reducing legal immigration levels. • 77% of respondents in a CNN poll opposed granting amnesty to illegal immigrants. • 53% of Americans said the number of legal immigrants allowed into the U.S. should be decreased. Only 6% wanted to see it increased. • 41% of Republicans and 45% of Democrats support stopping legal immigration altogether. • 72% of Americans think immigration should be reduced, • A Roper poll in January found that 83% of Americans favor a lower immigration level. 70% favor restricting immigration to less than 300,000 new immigrants a year (including 70% of Republicans, 73% of African-Americans, and 52% of Hispanics). Most want even larger cuts: 54% favor an immigration level of below 100,000 a year. 20% support no immigration at all. The same Roper poll found that a large majority (75%) supports strong laws to identify and deport illegal immigrants. Only 10% disagree with strict laws against the removal of illegal immigrants. The strongest supporters of tough measures against illegal immigrants are self-styled political moderates (78%), strongly religious (76%), whites (77%), Protestants (82%), and Midwesterners (85%). 76% of Democrats, 76% of Republicans, 78% of self-described middle-of-the-roaders, and 60% of Hispanics (English-speaking) also support tough laws against illegal immigrants. • 52% of all Americans favor a five-year ban on all legal and illegal immigration to the U.S., including 54% of all Republicans and 48% of all Democrats. • 50% favor a law that would stop all legal immigration into the U.S. for the next five years. • 63% of Americans think immigration levels are too high, including 66% of Republicans and 60% of Democrats. • 62% of Americans think immigration levels should be decreased, 27% think the present levels should remain, and 12% say they should be increased. Some lawmakers are particularly concerned with the attitudes of Hispanics on the immigration issue. Polls show that Hispanic Americans, like all Americans, support cutbacks in immigration. • 89% of Hispanic Americans strongly support an immediate moratorium on immigration. 74% feel fewer immigrants should be allowed and stronger restrictions should be enforced. • Hispanics favor reducing immigration by a margin of 53% to 35% in Texas, 48% to 40% in New York, and 47% to 39% in Florida. Rudolfo de la Garza, a University of Texas at Austin professor and one of the directors of the study, said: “U.S born Mexican-Americans believe that they suffer a lower quality of services because of the excess demand on them generated by the immigrants.” • 43% of Hispanics nationwide think the government is not doing enough to stop illegal immigration. The more established Hispanics are in the United States, the more likely they are to think the government is not doing enough to curb illegal immigration. 37% of foreign-born Hispanics believe not enough is being done; that belief increases to 45% of first-generation Hispanics and half of second-generation Hispanics. A sampling of a number of states regarding illegal immigration. With the mid-term elections on the horizon, Congress should become very attentive or they run the risk of being very unemployed.

MEXICO'S WAR ON DRUGS? THE DRUG CARTELS OWN NARCOMEX, LIKE ILLEGALS OWN THE LA RAZA DEMS!

Book takes Mexico drug war to task
The book by two former Mexican government officials criticizes President Felipe Calderon's campaign against the drug cartels. The authors say the focus should be on smaller-bore crimes.
By Ken Ellingwood

January 1, 2010

Reporting from Mexico City

Almost everything to do with the Mexican government's war against drugs is wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.

The threat from narco-trafficking is overblown. Fighting cartels won't stop the flow of illegal drugs or erase Mexican corruption. The real battle over drugs lies on the U.S. side of the border.

That's the gist of a provocative new book that challenges virtually every premise on which Mexican President Felipe Calderon has based his 3-year-old offensive against drug cartels.

"El Narco: La Guerra Fallida" ("Narco: The Failed War"), by two top officials under Calderon's predecessor, Vicente Fox, is one of the first book-length looks at the crackdown launched by Calderon when he took office in December 2006.

The Spanish-language book, which has sold well here, is controversial and stubbornly contrarian, to the point of suggesting that Mexico might be better off coming to terms with the drug capos and focusing on smaller-bore crimes that plague Mexicans.

"Calderon could have easily launched a major crusade against insecurity, violence and unorganized crime, on the type of minor misdemeanors that gave birth to Rudy Giuliani's zero tolerance stance in New York," the authors assert. "But that crusade would never have unleashed the passions, support or sense of danger that a full-fledged war on drugs actually did."

In "El Narco," former Fox spokesman Ruben Aguilar and former Foreign Minister Jorge Castaneda attempt an end run past the usual debate over whether the Calderon anti-crime strategy is working. Instead, they maintain that the offensive was unnecessary, and they seek to poke holes in many of the reasons Calderon has offered for launching a campaign that has claimed more than 15,000 lives.

The president's assertion that Mexico faced a crisis of deepening drug consumption at home? They present figures showing that though domestic use has risen, it is minuscule compared with countries such as the United States.

Calderon's contention that drug violence had reached alarming levels when he decided to act? The authors quote studies showing that the nation's overall homicide rate had been in decline for years. (It has gone up since.)

"Why in the world was it necessary to declare an all-out war against the cartels because of growing violence, when violence was actually diminishing?" the authors ask.

The book argues that U.S. drug use -- the motor of the violent trafficking industry -- is largely unaffected by Mexico's enforcement actions. The answer for Mexico, it says, lies in swinging debate north of the border in favor of drug decriminalization or legalization.

"If what is good for us is decriminalization, that is what we should fight for," write Aguilar and Castaneda, a leftist intellectual and commentator who is the better known of the two.

The authors propose some public-safety measures, including creation of a national police force and a no-fly zone over southern Mexico. But rather than send troops to fight drug cartels, they argue, Mexico should focus on limiting the "collateral damage" that most aggrieves Mexicans: kidnappings, extortion, car theft and corruption.

This could mean "tacit quid pro quos" with gangs to get them to keep down criminal mayhem in Mexico's streets, the writers say, but it doesn't require a formal handshake.

"The narcos understand," they say. "If they were imbeciles, they wouldn't be rich."

Aguilar and Castaneda contend that in launching the drug offensive, the conservative Calderon sought to win legitimacy for his presidency after a disputed election victory in 2006. That thesis is heard often on the Mexican left.

Calderon hasn't directly referred to the authors, but he has sharply criticized those who he says would have Mexico run from the drug war or cut deals with traffickers. He says such approaches would "erode the foundations that support our society, as a state based on law."

Calderon has frequently characterized his crime crackdown as an attempt to clean and modernize a system that had become thoroughly corrupted through decades of official acceptance of the drug trade, or even outright collusion with it.

Last month, he urged Mexicans to "ignore those who naively want the government to just walk away from the fight, as if the problems would solve themselves by magic."

The outspoken authors of "El Narco" are uncharacteristically spare when it comes to solving Mexico's graft problem. They agree that drug-related corruption has long been part of the Mexican landscape, especially in small towns, but are skeptical of reports that traffickers' penetration of the system had hit grave new depths when Calderon sent troops into the streets.

"This is Mexico, not Norway," they write. "Narcos' complicity with municipal, state and federal authorities wasn't born yesterday."

Obama soft on illegals enforcement

Arrests of illegal immigrant workers have dropped precipitously under President Obama, according to figures released Wednesday. Criminal arrests, administrative arrests, indictments and convictions of illegal immigrants at work sites all fell by more than 50 percent from fiscal 2008 to fiscal 2009.

The figures show that Mr. Obama has made good on his pledge to shift enforcement away from going after illegal immigrant workers themselves - but at the expense of Americans' jobs, said Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas, the Republican who compiled the numbers from the Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE). Mr. Smith, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, said a period of economic turmoil is the wrong time to be cutting enforcement and letting illegal immigrants take jobs that Americans otherwise would hold.

Obama positioning for immigration reform (Instant Citizenship For Illegals)
Published on 12-31-2009 Email To Friend Print Version


Source: Seattle Times

With the health-care battle still unfinished, the Obama administration has been laying plans to take up an issue that could prove even more divisive — a major overhaul of the nation's immigration system.

Senior White House aides privately have assured Latino activists that the president will back legislation next year to provide a path to citizenship for the estimated 12 million undocumented workers now living in the United States.

In addition to the citizenship provision, the emerging plan will stress efforts to secure U.S. borders against those trying to cross illegally. But that two-track approach was rejected repeatedly in the past by Republicans and other critics who insist a border crackdown must demonstrate its effectiveness before any action on citizenship is considered.

Whatever proposal Obama puts forward will likely be complicated by the calendar: Midterm elections are in November, and polls show the public is more worried about joblessness and the fragile economy than anything else.

The White House already has a packed agenda for 2010: economic recovery, global-warming legislation and tougher regulation of financial institutions.

In an effort to enlist the kind of business support that helped drive its health-care initiative, for example, administration officials have reached out to the National Restaurant Association, which represents an industry that employs thousands of immigrants. Earlier this year, the new head of the association, Dawn Sweeney, met with Cecilia Munoz, a White House aide involved in the issue, and expressed interest in cooperating.

"It's an extremely important issue for our members," said Sweeney, whose group could exert grass-roots pressure on lawmakers.

As a candidate, Obama vowed to take up immigration during his first year in office. That deadline will come and go. Further delay could anger Latino voters, who came out in force for the president and congressional Democrats in 2008.

"The bulk of the people needing immigration reform are Latino," said Rep. Raul M. Grijalva, D-Ariz. "There's a level of disenchantment about where we're going. ... And if you don't give the Latino community a reason to participate (in the elections) you weaken your base even more."

For an immigration bill to have a realistic shot of passing next year, political analysts said, the particulars would have to be agreed upon by the spring. Delay would increase the likelihood of the issue being derailed by the November elections.

An immigration bill was introduced in the House earlier in the month, and Sen. Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., who chairs a subcommittee on immigration, is heading the effort to cobble together a bipartisan coalition in the Senate.

But Democrats may not have a lock on one prominent Republican who has worked in the past to revamp the immigration system: Arizona Sen. John McCain.

McCain backed George W. Bush's failed attempt to overhaul immigration in his second term. But he has not committed to supporting the Obama bill, saying he worried the president would not endorse a temporary guest-worker program.

Organized labor, an important part of the Democratic base, has voiced opposition to a guest-worker program under which more immigrants could enter the country on a temporary basis. The White House would not reveal its position on guest-worker issue.

CALIFORNIA'S POPULATION TO DOUBLE WITH ILLEGALS - And Mexican Gangs!

POPULATION TO DOUBLE... LATINO THE DOMINANT ETHNIC GROUP.....double the deficits above! And double the crime, graffiti, anchor babies and homes foreclosed on with bars on the windows.
Riverside will become the second most populous county behind Los Angeles and Latinos the dominant ethnic group, study says. By Maria L. La Ganga and Sara Lin
Times Staff Writers
July 10, 2007
Over the next half-century, California's population will explode by nearly 75%, and Riverside will surpass its bigger neighbors to become the second most populous county after Los Angeles, according to state Department of Finance projections released Monday. California will near the 60-million mark in 2050, the study found, raising questions about how the state will look and function and where all the people and their cars will go. Dueling visions pit the iconic California building block of ranch house, big yard and two-car garage against more dense, high-rise development. But whether sprawl or skyscrapers win the day, the Golden State will probably be a far different and more complex place than it is today, as people live longer and Latinos become the dominant ethnic group, eclipsing all others combined. Some critics forecast disaster if gridlock and environmental impacts are not averted. Others see a possible economic boon, particularly for retailers and service industries with an eye on the state as a burgeoning market."It's opportunity with baggage," said Jack Kyser, chief economist for the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp., in "a country masquerading as a state."Other demographers argue that the huge population increase the state predicts will occur only if officials complete major improvements to roads and other public infrastructure. Without that investment, they say, some Californians would flee the state. If the finance department's calculations hold, California's population will rise from 34.1 million in 2000 to 59.5 million at the mid-century point, about the same number of people as Italy has today. And its projected growth rate in those 50 years will outstrip the national rate — nearly 75% compared with less than 50% projected by the federal government. That could translate to increased political clout in Washington, D.C. Southern California's population is projected to grow at a rate of more than 60%, according to the new state figures, reaching 31.6 million by mid-century. That's an increase of 12.1 million over just seven counties. L.A. County alone will top 13 million by 2050, an increase of almost 3.5 million residents. And Riverside County — long among the fastest-growing in the state — will triple in population to 4.7 million by mid-century. Riverside County will add 3.1 million people, according to the new state figures, eclipsing Orange and San Diego to become the second most populous in the state. With less expensive housing than the coast, Riverside County has grown by more than 472,000 residents since 2000, according to state estimates. No matter how much local governments build in the way of public works and how many new jobs are attracted to the region — minimizing the need for long commutes — Husing figures that growth will still overwhelm the area's roads.USC Professor Genevieve Giuliano, an expert on land use and transportation, would probably agree. Such massive growth, if it occurs, she said, will require huge investment in the state's highways, schools, and energy and sewer systems at a "very formidable cost."If those things aren't built, Giuliano questioned whether the projected population increases will occur. "Sooner or later, the region will not be competitive and the growth is not going to happen," she said. If major problems like traffic congestion and housing costs aren't addressed, Giuliano warned, the middle class is going to exit California, leaving behind very high-income and very low-income residents. "It's a political question," said Martin Wachs, a transportation expert at the Rand Corp. in Santa Monica. "Do we have the will, the consensus, the willingness to pay? If we did, I think we could manage the growth."The numbers released Monday underscore most demographers' view that the state's population is pushing east, from both Los Angeles and the Bay Area, to counties such as Riverside and San Bernardino as well as half a dozen or so smaller Central Valley counties. Sutter County, for example, is expected to be the fastest-growing on a percentage basis between 2000 and 2050, jumping 255% to a population of 282,894 , the state said. Kern County is expected to see its population more than triple to 2.1 million by mid-century. In Southern California, San Diego County is projected to grow by almost 1.7 million residents and Orange County by 1.1 million. Even Ventura County — where voters have imposed some limits on urban sprawl — will see its population jump 62% to more than 1.2 million if the projections hold. The Department of Finance releases long-term population projections every three years. Between the last two reports, number crunchers have taken a more detailed look at California's statistics and taken into account the likelihood that people will live longer, said chief demographer Mary Heim. The result? The latest numbers figure the state will be much more crowded than earlier estimates (by nearly 5 million) and that it will take a bit longer than previously thought for Latinos to become the majority of California's population: 2042, not 2038. The figures show that the majority of California's growth will be in the Latino population, said Dowell Myers, a professor of urban planning and demography at USC, adding that "68% of the growth this decade will be Latino, 75% next and 80% after that."That should be a wake-up call for voting Californians, Myers said, pointing out a critical disparity. Though the state's growth is young and Latino, the majority of voters will be older and white — at least for the next decade."The future of the state is Latino growth," Myers said. "We'd sure better invest in them and get them up to speed. Older white voters don't see it that way. They don't realize that someone has to replace them in the work force, pay for their benefits and buy their house."

ARIZONA Moves To Slow Mexican Welfare State

WHAT YOU WILL NEVER HEAR HISPANDERING BARACK OBAMA, OR HIS CORRUPT LA RAZA DEMS EVER, EVER, EVER TALK ABOUT IS THE END TO BEING MEXICO’S WELFARE SYSTEM! That’s all we are to these people! MEXICO’S WELFARE SYSTEM!
But then we also will not be hearing from the LA RAZA DEMS about the STAGGERING CRIME WAVE THAT ALWAYS COMES WITH THE MEXICAN INVASION and OCCUPATION. More than 2,000 Californians murdered by ILLEGALS THAT FLED BACK OVER THE BORDER TO AVOID PROSECUTION!
There are MORE billionaires in Mexico, not even including the MEXICAN DRUG CARTEL LORDS, than in Saudi American or Switzerland, and yet all the NARCOMEX gov does for their people is EXPORT them to America (see article by Christian Science Monitor on Mex exporting their poor at MEXICANOCCUPATION.blogspot.com)! They export their illiterate, poor, criminal, and frequently pregnant over our borders, and then in collusion with American banks such as La Raza donors WELLS FARGO and BANK of AMERICA tell them to send mucho money back home and complete Mexico’s welfare system there!
In Mexican occupied Los Angeles, where there are 40 large Mexican gangs that murder nearly 1,000 people YEARLY, the county pays out $50 million per year to illegals! Most of whom loathe this country, our culture, flag and language! Almost HALF of those employed in Los Angeles are ILLEGALS USING STOLEN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS!!! You don’t think our gov knows that! It does, and refused to enforce the laws prohibiting the employment of illegals. Our own government sells us out to illegals like it does banksters!
CURRENTLY OBAMA IS WORKING FOR ANOTHER WALL STREET BAILOUT LIKE WHAT HE AND HIS LA RAZA DEMS DID FOR THE BANKSTERS THAT BANKROLLED HIM. IT’S AMNESTY! Wages for Wall Street cannot be depressed enough! There is a reason why most of the FORTUNE 500 are major donors to LA RAZA, The (Mexican) Race!
Even while Mexican gangs and the Mexican drug cartel have spread all over the country, OBAMA has taken 400 border patrol guards off our open and undefended borders even while he runs off at the mouth about TERRORISM. In fact his LA RAZA MINISTER FOR HOMELAND SECURITY is a major architect for PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP IS RIGHT OVER OUR BORDERS!

To REBUILD OUR COUNTRY AFTER TWO DECADES OF CORPORATE RAPE AND PILLAGE AND OPEN BORDERS, we need to dump ALL LIFER-POLITICIANS, AND ALL LA RAZA DEMS, AND FIGHT OBAMA’S NEWEST SELLOUT!

Immigration law ignites fear in Arizona
A new state law requires public workers to report illegal immigrants who apply for benefits they aren't entitled to. The attorney general will decide the law's scope.
By Nicholas Riccardi
January 1, 2010
Reporting from Tucson
Cristina, an illegal immigrant living in South Tucson, recently went to a government office to sign up her children for a state-run Medicaid program.

The boy and girl, ages 7 and 3, respectively, are U.S. citizens and entitled to the benefits. But Cristina, who spoke on condition her last name not be used, was fearful. She'd heard of a new state law requiring public workers to alert Immigration and Customs Enforcement when illegal immigrants apply for benefits they are not legally entitled to.

So when workers asked Cristina, 32, for identification, she fled. She now says she has no way to treat her daughter's liver problems or her son's asthma and impacted tooth.

Cristina, a single mother and part-time house cleaner, is even reluctant to take her children to a hospital emergency room. "I feel so alone," she said.

The new law has terrified the immigrant community here, leading to agonized discussions at schools, churches and community meetings about whether it is safe to get government help in Arizona. The author of the law, state Sen. Russell Pearce, is happy about that.

"I have a hard time having compassion for criminals," Pearce said. "It's about time people started being afraid."

Pearce contends that a large number of illegal immigrants improperly receive public benefits, and his law makes it a misdemeanor for a public worker to fail to report one. The law also allows citizens to sue public agencies if they believe immigrants are receiving improper benefits.

"I want the law enforced," he said. "Every time you pass something it becomes a toothless tiger." He acknowledged that his bill is not supposed to apply to people like Cristina's children, who are legally entitled to federal benefits.

The law took effect in late November, and it is not yet clear what government services it applies to. Some fear it could mean libraries and fire stations are obligated to report illegal immigrants, an interpretation Pearce said is silly.

He said the bill applies only to a range of welfare, Medicaid and other government aid programs that are not already guaranteed to illegal immigrants under federal law.

But many Arizonans are awaiting an opinion from the state's attorney general on the law's scope and which government workers are obligated to report illegal immigrants.

Critics of the law say it creates fear and uncertainty over a problem that doesn't exist.

"It's already the law in Arizona that we cannot give benefits to people who are in the country illegally," said Ken Strobeck, executive director of the Arizona League of Cities and Towns, which unsuccessfully sued to halt the law's implementation.

Experts on both sides of the immigration debate agree that illegal immigrants rarely receive government benefits illegally. Many economists have found that immigrants pay for benefits they receive through taxes, though some studies show a net loss to government.

The main cost to taxpayers comes from the use of public schools or emergency medical care -- benefits guaranteed illegal immigrants under federal law.

Also, children of illegal immigrants who are U.S. citizens are eligible for the same benefits as those of any other citizen, such as food stamps.

"There's not much that Arizona can do about it," said Steven A. Camarota, research director at the Center for Immigration Studies in Washington, which favors restrictions on immigration. "The only solution is for us to have fewer illegals and fewer U.S.-born children" of illegal immigrants, he added.

Camarota estimated that families headed by illegal immigrants receive public assistance at about the same rate as families of native-born citizens who lack a high school education. A 2002 study by the Urban Institute found that illegal-immigrant families used benefits at a far lower rate than native-born ones -- for example, 11% of illegal-immigrant families in Los Angeles County used food stamps, compared with 33% of low-income native-born ones.

Randy Capps, who worked on the Urban Institute study and is now at the Migration Policy Institute, said illegal immigrants shy away from government aid. "When you're in an anti-immigrant, hostile environment, like in Arizona, the message is clear that you put yourself at risk with any contact with the government," Capps said.

In 2004, Pearce, a Republican, helped write a ballot initiative that required state workers to report illegal immigrants who receive benefits. But Arizona Atty. Gen. Terry Goddard, a Democrat, interpreted the measure narrowly so the law applied to only a couple of obscure programs.

This year, as the state struggled to address its budget deficit, Pearce inserted language in the budget bill reiterating those requirements. Many immigrant advocates and local officials were unaware of the move until the law took effect. Its impact was swift.

Jennifer Allen, executive director of the Border Action Network here, said the group has been swamped with calls from terrified parents, like Cristina, fearful of seeking benefits for their U.S. citizen children.

"It's sent a shock wave of fear through immigrant communities," Allen said.

The state Department of Economic Services, which administers welfare benefits, has referred to federal authorities more than 750 people who applied for benefits without proof of legal residency. Officials at ICE have not said whether they have taken action on those cases, but stressed that their priorities in deportations lie with violent criminals.

On a recent morning, a group of immigrants sat in the modest offices of the Border Action Network, sharing stories of fearful trips to apply for benefits. Sofia Machado, an English teacher and volunteer at the group, said one of her neighbors had been deported after seeking Medicaid for her U.S.-born children.

Just as Machado finished telling the story, her cellphone rang. The caller's daughter was three months pregnant and had started bleeding, but the caller feared taking her to the hospital. Machado tried to reassure the caller that hospitals should not be checking immigration status.

"There's a lack of information and a panicked ignorance," she said afterward. "Look at the disaster these people have created."

“There are an estimated 1.5 million school-aged illegal immigrants in the United States and the government spends an estimated $12 billion annually to educate them. The biggest chunks are spent by California ($7.7 billion) and Texas ($3.9 billion), where the situation has become a public education crisis with no end in sight. The Lone Star State’s public schools have seen a huge increase in illegal immigrant Hispanic students with dismal Mexican and Central American education histories that are contributing to an overall lowering of academic standards across the board.”

ANCHORS - MEXICANS BORN IN THIS COUNTRY 1 IN 5 BIRTHS!!!

Anchor Babies

Anchor Babies - In Conclusion...The Educational Chaos
Part 4 - Fomenting Failure In Our Educational Systems
http://www.rense.com/general87/anchorr.htm
In this final entry of this series on Anchor Babies in America, we shall investigate the unbelievable but verifiable costs to American citizens. Additionally, we will explore ancillary problems created by illegal alien children within our classrooms across the country.

Do we blame the children? No! Do we blame their parents? Yes! (They know they are illegal aliens!)

Who do we blame? Simple! Our U.S. Congress and U.S. presidents from Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43 and today, Obama! They must take responsibility for this fiscal/educational and linguistic fiasco. They failed to enforce our laws in the past 20 years, and Obama fails to enforce our immigration and labor laws in 2009. Thus, they allowed countless tens of thousands of employers within the United States to subvert our laws as to employment of unlawful immigrants. Our Congress allowed a new 21st century slave class to establish itself in excess of 20 million unlawful aliens-inside this country. The rich benefit and the rest of us subsidize and suffer from it.

While those 20 million enjoy employment, housing, welfare, food and medical care on U.S. taxpayer dollars, 15 million Americans cannot find a job. An astounding 32.2 million Americans subsist on food stamps. Our working poor and minorities languish in the streets and 13 million American children live below the poverty level.

EDUCATIONAL CHAOS:
Those 400,000 anchor babies cost taxpayers big time! At $6,000.00 per delivery in our hospitals where those pregnant alien mothers take themselves to birth their children X's 400,000 annually: $2.4 billion annually. Year after year after year! If the child suffers from autism, Down's Syndrome, myocardial septal defect (hole in heart), deformity, premature birth in ICU or other problems-the costs may hit $1 million and more.

Remember also, that the mother becomes a ward of the welfare rolls in assisted housing, food stamps, medical care, welfare payments-all on the taxpayer's dollar. Instead of 400,000 dependents, the actual number doubles to 900,000. Additionally, as that mother births more children, the costs rise dramatically.

Once the child reaches age five, it begins a 13 year educational journey that costs taxpayers on average $9,644.00 annually depending on school districts within the United States. When you add in 'free' breakfasts and lunches for those disadvantaged children, the costs rise into the billions of dollars. Finally, English as a Second Language costs taxpayers according to economist Edwin Rubenstein:

"The total additional per pupil costs for language assistance instruction was estimated to be in the range of $200 to $700 in 1981 dollars-equivalent to $460 to $1,600 in 2007 dollars. Using the average of the latter two amounts-$1,030-as our estimate of per pupil cost, the total cost of providing English Language Learning instruction to the 3.8 million students enrolled in those programs would equal about $3.9 billion. ($1,030 3.8 million.)." (Source: http://www.thesocialcontract.com , Department of Education - Immigration Fiscal Impact Statement, By Edwin S. Rubenstein
Volume 18, Number 2 (Winter 2007-2008) Issue theme: "What price mass immigration?"

With those figures of 3.8 million illegal immigrant children and children born as anchor babies X's a minimum figure of $5.00 for 'free' breakfasts and lunches X's 180 school days equals: $5.42 billion annually.

Talk about throwing U.S. taxpayer dollars down a rat hole, NBC's Brian Williams reported last June that high school graduation rates around the country suffered tremendously. Detroit public schools, loaded with Middle Eastern legal and illegal immigrants along with unlawful Mexican migrant children tallied an astounding 76 percent dropout/flunkout rate among potential graduating seniors. Other cities like L.A., Chicago and Houston hovered around 50 to 60 percent dropout rates.

Brian Williams reported that 1.2 million 'American' teens hit the streets annually "functionally illiterate."

In my city of Denver, 67 percent of the graduating class dropped out or flunked out before age eighteen. (Source: Rocky Mountain News, "What Happened?")

Dan Stein at http://www.fairus.org published a report titled: "Breaking the Piggy Bank: How Illegal Immigration is Sending Schools into the Red". Estimated costs of educating illegal migrant children and anchor babies: $7.5 billion annually.

The report said, in California, the $2.2 billion spent educating illegal alien immigrants for one year could:
• Pay the salaries for 41,764 teachers.
• CA schools are threatened with a $1.5 billion cut next year. Eliminating illegals would pay for all needs.
• Pay for CA's class sizes to remain capped at 20 students for a year, with $300 million to spare.
• Buy books and computers to equip 346,689 classrooms or 79 percent of classrooms in California.
• Fully fund the state's free lunch program for poor American students for two years.

Instead, California dropped from the top five top school systems in the United States to the bottom five states. Teaches struggle teaching with 113 different languages in their classrooms. As a teacher, I can tell you that more than one language in a classroom causes educational tension, ethnic tension from lack of ability to communicate and racial separation.

Students become angry, stubborn, and overwhelmed as they 'drop out' from sheer frustration and inability to perform academically. Violence ensues or complete withdrawal! Thousands join gangs for their identity.

Finally, what about U.S. children? What about the quality of their educations? What about their well-being? What about our own poverty-stricken students and special needs across the country?

Today, one-third of all students graduating from high schools heavily impacted by mass immigration must take remedial courses in universities to bring their minds up to speed for college work. In thousands of schools, gangs, foreign languages, and strange customs usurp the educational experience for U.S. students.

At some point, and soon, we must stop 'birthright citizenship' as all other countries, including Ireland and New Zealand, have done.

This year, House member Nathan Deal introduced HR 1868: reintroduced his Birthright Citizenship bill that would eliminate automatic citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal aliens. The Birthright Citizenship Act of 2009 (H.R.1868) would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make it more difficult for children born in the U.S. to gain citizenship.
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.1868

Under the proposed legislation, a person born in the United States, in order to gain citizenship, must have at least one parent who is:
A U.S. citizen or national;
A lawful permanent resident alien whose residence is in the United States; or
An alien performing active service in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Thank you for joining http://www.numbersusa.com and http://www.capsweb.org and http://www.fairus.org to send in pre-written faxes that will push the entire Congress to pass this important bill. Otherwise, you will keep paying and paying billions and billions-year after year with no end in sight.

Additionally, when those kids reach 18, they can chain migrate their entire families into the USA-causing a horrific overload of our infrastructure, carrying capacity and quality of life. Not to mention we are displacing Americans out of their own culture, language and way of life!
