AN AMERICAN SEES & SPEAKS –
Comments Posted on Washington Post
One of the reasons anchor
babies are such a burden to the US is the practice of chain migration. That
baby gets to bring in his parents, siblings and in some cases grand parents and
no one needs to be economically "sponsored" so all are eligible for
the welfare state bennies. Parkland
Hospital in Dallas recently went bankrupt due to the maternity ward where most,
perhaps all the babies were born to illegals and their cost of care never paid.
While it is quite understandable that some one from a poor country or any
country for that matter might like to give the gift of citizenship to their
offspring, it is the sole right of the sovereign nation to grant that gift. We
exploit the poor and undocumented and it is time to stop. Your cheap cleaning
lady or lawn guy is very expensive for the nation as a whole. Pay a living wage
for what you don't want to do and the problem may, in part, disappear.

An
argument to be made about immigrant babies and citizenship
GEORGE
F. WILL
Sunday, March 28, 2010; A15
A
simple reform would drain some scalding steam from immigration arguments that
may soon again be at a roiling boil. It would bring the interpretation of the
14th Amendment
into conformity with what the authors of its text intended, and with common
sense, thereby removing an incentive for illegal immigration.
To end
the practice of "birthright citizenship," all that is required is to
correct the misinterpretation of that amendment's first sentence: "All
persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state
wherein they reside." From these words has flowed the practice of
conferring citizenship on children born here to illegal immigrants.
A
parent from a poor country, writes professor Lino Graglia of the University of
Texas law school, "can hardly do more for a child than make him or her an
American citizen, entitled to all the advantages of the American welfare
state." Therefore, "It is difficult to imagine a more irrational and
self-defeating legal system than one which makes unauthorized entry into this
country a criminal offense and simultaneously provides perhaps the greatest
possible inducement to illegal entry."
Writing in the Texas Review
of Law and Politics, Graglia says this irrationality is rooted in a misunderstanding of
the phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof." What was this
intended or understood to mean by those who wrote it in 1866 and ratified it in
1868? The authors and ratifiers could not have intended birthright citizenship
for illegal immigrants because in 1868 there were and never had been any
illegal immigrants because no law ever had restricted immigration.
If
those who wrote and ratified the 14th Amendment had imagined laws restricting
immigration -- and had anticipated huge waves of illegal immigration -- is it
reasonable to presume they would have wanted to provide the reward of
citizenship to the children of the violators of those laws? Surely not.
The Civil Rights Act of 1866 begins with language from
which the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause is derived: "All persons
born in the United States, and not subject to any foreign power,
excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby declared to be citizens of the United
States." (Emphasis added.) The explicit exclusion of Indians from
birthright citizenship was not repeated in the 14th Amendment because it was
considered unnecessary. Although Indians were at least partially subject to
U.S. jurisdiction, they owed allegiance to their tribes, not the United States.
This reasoning -- divided allegiance -- applies equally to exclude the children
of resident aliens, legal as well as illegal, from birthright citizenship. Indeed,
today's regulations issued by the departments of Homeland Security and Justice
stipulate:
"A
person born in the United States to a foreign diplomatic officer accredited to
the United States, as a matter of international law, is not subject to the
jurisdiction of the United States. That person is not a United States citizen
under the 14th Amendment."
Sen. Lyman Trumbull of
Illinois
was, Graglia writes, one of two "principal authors of the citizenship
clauses in 1866 act and the 14th Amendment." He said that "subject to
the jurisdiction of the United States" meant subject to its
"complete" jurisdiction, meaning "not owing allegiance to
anybody else." Hence children whose Indian parents had tribal allegiances
were excluded from birthright citizenship.
Appropriately,
in 1884 the Supreme Court held that children born to Indian parents were not
born "subject to" U.S. jurisdiction because, among other reasons, the
person so born could not change his status by his "own will without the
action or assent of the United States." And "no one can become a
citizen of a nation without its consent." Graglia says this decision
"seemed to establish" that U.S. citizenship is "a consensual
relation, requiring the consent of the United States." So: "This
would clearly settle the question of birthright citizenship for children of
illegal aliens. There cannot be a more total or forceful denial of consent to a
person's citizenship than to make the source of that person's presence in the
nation illegal."
Congress
has heard testimony estimating that more than two-thirds of all births in Los
Angeles public hospitals, and more than half of all births in that city, and
nearly 10 percent of all births in the nation in recent years, have been to
mothers who are here illegally. Graglia seems to establish that there is no
constitutional impediment to Congress ending the granting of birthright
citizenship to those whose presence here is "not only without the
government's consent but in violation of its law."

HERE’S HOW
WELL MEXICO’S WELFARE SYSTEM IN OUR BORDERS WORKS!
AN AMERICAN SEES & SPEAKS – Illegals and the
MELTDOWN OF OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY – The Ever Expanding
Mexican Welfare System
WHY WE ARE IN SUCH A MONEY SQUEEZE
Florida ER doctor's notes
Having spent three weeks in a hospital in Naples, Florida with my wife I couldn’t help noticing what was going on in the hospital and I had a lot of time to talk to the doctors and nurses about what I had observed. Below is a commentary from an ER Doctor. Do you think this might be a big reason our health care system and our social security system are so screwed up? Do you think this might be a big reason our taxes keep going up? Who do you think these people are going to vote for?
From a Florida ER doctor:
"I live and work in a state overrun with illegals. They make more money having kids than we earn working full-time. Today I had a 25-year old with 8 kids - thats right 8; all illegal anchor babies and she had the nicest nails, cell phone, hand bag, clothing, etc. She makes about $1,500 monthly for each; you do the math. I used to say, We are the dumbest nation on earth. Now I must say and sadly admit: WE are the dumbest people on earth (that includes ME) for we elected the idiot idealogues who have passed the bills that allow this. Sorry, but we need a revolution. Vote them all out in 2010. "
Mexico Promotes Free U.S. Healthcare
For Illegal Immigrants
Time to wake up
people! With unemployment at 12% and the state going broke, our tax dollars are
going to pay for healthcare for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens. To the
tune of over a billion dollars a year!
Read on:
Mexico's government operates programs in about a dozen American cities that refers its nationals--living in the U.S. illegally--to publicly funded health centers where they can get free medical care without being turned over to immigration authorities.
The program is called Ventanillas de Salud (Health Windows) in Spanish and its mission is to help illegal immigrants find U.S. hospitals, clinics and other government programs where they can get free services without being deported for violating federal immigration laws.
Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, San Diego and Indiana are among the cities where Mexican consulates operate the health referral system which annually costs U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars. In Los Angeles County alone, illegal immigrants cost taxpayers nearly $440 million in health services annually and a whopping $1.1 billion statewide.
The Mexican consul in Los Angeles proudly announced that nearly 300,000 Mexicans in the area have benefited from his government's health referral program, which he says actually saves the county money by encouraging immigrants to seek preventive care rather than waiting for more expensive emergency treatment.
The Southern California operation promises to assess "consulate clients" for eligibility to government-funded health insurance and other primary care services and offers free legal assistance to those who are denied coverage. Its goal is to improve access to health services for immigrants of Mexican origin by formalizing a health education, medical home referral and insurance enrollment program.
In Chicago, the Mexican consul's Spanish-language web site heavily promotes the Illinois Department of Health's low-cost prescription medicine program for illegal aliens and various free medical services throughout the state. It encourages all Mexicans in the area to pursue the valuable U.S. government-financed services for their entire family.
The Indiana-based program boasts that it serves thousands of "Mexican nationals" living in that state as well as Ohio, Kentucky and southern Illinois. Mexican officials claim that its highly successful pro-health program sends out a clear message to other Mexican consulates throughout the country and the world.
Although these programs facilitate people to remain in the country illegally, Mexico is working hard to expand them to all 47 U.S. consulates to better serve its nationals. In the meantime, U.S. taxpayers will keep picking up the exorbitant tab of medically treating the millions who live in the country illegally.

Study Looks at Babies Born to
Illegal Immigrants
About 340,000 of the 4.3
million babies born in the United States in 2008 — or 8 percent — had at least
one parent who was an illegal immigrant, according to a study published Wednesday by the
Pew Hispanic Center, a nonpartisan research group in Washington.
Because they were born in
this country, the babies of illegal immigrants are United States citizens. In
all in 2008, four million children who were American citizens had at least one
parent who was in the country illegally, the Pew study found.
Children of illegal
immigrants make up 7 percent of all people in the country younger than 18 years
old, according to the study, which is based on March 2009 census figures, the
most recent data on immigrant families. Nearly four out of five of those
children — 79 percent — are American citizens because they were born here.
About 85 percent of the
parents who are illegal immigrants are Hispanic, the Pew Center reported.
The Pew study comes as
lawmakers in Washington have been debating whether to consider changing the
14th Amendment of the Constitution, which grants citizenship to anyone born in
the United States. The controversy erupted after Senator Lindsey
Graham,
Republican of South Carolina, said in July that he might offer an amendment to
revoke birthright citizenship for the American-born children of illegal
immigrants.
Mr. Graham’s comments touched
a nerve with many Americans, who called in to talk shows to question whether
the children of immigrants who have violated the law by remaining in the United
States should be granted citizenship. But it was less clear that there was
strong support for altering the Constitution to address the problem.
A nationwide survey in June by the Pew Research Center for the People and the
Press, a group affiliated with the Hispanic Center, found that 56 percent of
those polled opposed changing the 14th Amendment, while 41 percent supported
it.
The study by the Pew Hispanic
Center casts light on an issue raised by Mr. Graham that prompted the current
debate. In an interview with Fox News last month, Mr. Graham said that many
illegal immigrants were crossing the border to have babies in this country to
gain citizenship for their children. “They come here to drop a child,” Mr.
Graham said.
The Pew figures showed that
over 80 percent of mothers in the country illegally had been here for more than
a year, and that more than half had been in the country for five years or more,
said Jeffrey S. Passel, senior demographer at the Pew Hispanic Center and the
co-author of the study, along with Paul Taylor, the center’s director.
“The combination of the
growing undocumented population through 2007, with more staying in the country
longer, creates a situation where we have seen increasing numbers of these
births over the last six or seven years,” Mr. Passel said. “Because the
immigrants are staying here, this is a young population, and they get married
and form families.”
Republican leaders and
conservatives have been divided over Mr. Graham’s proposal for a constitutional
amendment.
“What the Pew estimate
underlines is that this is a big problem,” said Mark Krikorian, executive
director of the Center for Immigration Studies, a research group in
Washington that advocates reduced immigration. “It really is a subversion
of national independence for people who break into your country then to demand
that their kids be U.S. citizens.”
But Mr. Krikorian, a
conservative, does not favor an immediate effort to amend the citizenship
clause of the Constitution. He said he wants to see tougher enforcement to
reduce the number of illegal immigrants in the country.
“The point is to shrink the
illegal population and prevent new illegals from coming in,” he said, “before
it’s appropriate to have the constitutional debate.”

Anchor Baby Power
Anchor Babies Grab One Quarter of
Welfare Dollars in LA Co
The anchor baby scam has proven lucrative for illegal aliens in Los Angeles County, at considerable cost to our own poor and downtrodden legal citizenry.
The numbers show that more than $50 million in CalWORKS benefits and food stamps for January went to children born in the United States whose parents are in the country without documentation. This represents approximately 23 percent of the total benefits under the state welfare and food stamp programs, Antonovich said.
"When you add this to $350 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for health care, the total cost for illegal immigrants to county taxpayers far exceeds $1 billion a year -- not including the millions of dollars for education," Antonovich said.
I love children and I'm all for compassion -- smart, teach-them-to-fish compassion. But when laws, the Constitution, and enforcement allow illegal aliens (the operative word here being "illegal") to insinuate themselves into our nation and bleed us of our precious financial resources, then laws, the Constitution and enforcement need to be changed.

Birthright citizenship: The big Republican issue
for 2010 elections?
Don't be surprised if you hear the phrase "birthright
citizenship" a whole bunch of times before the November election.
The U.S. rule that all persons born in this country automatically
become citizens is becoming a major front for Republicans in the immigration
debate.
On Sunday, Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona, the second-ranking Republican
senator, expressed support for hearings on
the issue. Last week, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, generally
considered a moderate on immigration, said he may introduce a constitutional
amendment so children of illegal immigrants did not become citizens.
Sen. Lindsey Graham has called for an amendment to end
"birthright citizenship."
"People come here to have babies," he said. "They come
here to drop a child. It's called "drop and leave."
While there is already legislation to eliminate birthright citizenship, making the
change would probably require a constitutional amendment, a much more difficult
task. That's because the Fourteenth Amendment states:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject
to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State
wherein they reside.
Supporters of a change say the amendment adopted just after the
Civil War was designed simply to make sure that former slaves became citizens,
and wasn't intended to apply to illegal immigrants' kids. But the
pro-immigration Immigration Policy Center offers a rebuttal, with scholar
Elizabeth Wydra citing the "clear intent of the Reconstruction framers to
grant U.S. citizenship based on the objective measure of U.S. birth rather than
subjective political or public opinion."
There's already a sense that the Republicans will want to make
immigration a big issue. Arizona Governor Jan Brewer has seen a rapid rise in popularity in the wake
JUDICIAL WATCH
SANCTUARY COUNTY LOS ANGELES SPENDS $600 MILLION ON WELFARE
FOR ILLEGALS
County Spends $600 Mil On
Welfare For Illegal Immigrants
Last
Updated: Thu, 03/11/2010 - 3:14pm
For the second
consecutive year taxpayers in a single U.S. county will dish out more than half
a billion dollars just to cover the welfare and food-stamp costs of illegal
immigrants.
Los Angeles County, the nation’s most
populous, may be in the midst of a dire financial crisis but somehow there are
plenty of funds for illegal aliens.
In January alone, anchor babies born to the county’s illegal immigrants
collected more than $50 million in welfare benefits. At that rate the
cash-strapped county will pay around $600 million this year to provide illegal
aliens’ offspring with food stamps and other welfare perks.
THE EXORBITANT
FIGURE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE ENORMOUS COST OF EDUCATING, MEDICALLY TREATING, OR
INCARCERATING ILLEGALS ALIENS. THIS COSTS THE COUNTY AN ADDITIONAL ONE BILLION
DOLLARS.
The exorbitant
figure, revealed this week by a county supervisor, doesn’t even include the
enormous cost of educating, medically treating or incarcerating illegal aliens
in the sprawling county of about 10 million residents. Los Angeles County annually spends more than $1 billion for those
combined services, including $500 million for healthcare and $350 million for
public safety.
About a quarter
of the county’s welfare and food stamp issuances go to parents who reside in
the United States illegally and collect benefits for their anchor babies,
according to the figures from the county’s Department of Social Services. In
2009 the tab ran $570 million and this year’s figure is expected to increase by
several million dollars.
Illegal immigration continues to have a “catastrophic impact on Los
Angeles County taxpayers,” the veteran county supervisor (Michael
Antonovich) who revealed the information has said. The former fifth-grade
history teacher has repeatedly come under fire from his liberal counterparts
for publicizing statistics that confirm the devastation illegal immigration has
had on the region. Antonovich, who has served on the board for
nearly three decades, represents a
portion of the county that is roughly twice the size of Rhode Island and has
about 2 million residents.
His district is
simply a snippet of a larger crisis. Nationwide, Americans pay around $22
billion annually to provide illegal immigrants with welfare benefits that
include food assistance programs such as free school lunches in public schools,
food stamps and a nutritional program (known as WIC) for low-income women and their children.
Tens of billions more are spent on other social services, medical care, public
education and legal costs such as incarceration and public defenders.

'Border baby' boom strains S. Texas
More illegal immigrants are pouring into the state to give
birth
By JAMES PINKERTON
Houston Chronicle
RIO GRANDE CITY — First it was a trickle, now it's a flood.
Rising numbers of undocumented
immigrants from Mexico and Central America are streaming into Texas to give
birth, straining hospitals and costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of
dollars, health officials say.
Doctors and health officials say
they are overwhelmed by both the new arrivals and those immigrant mothers who
already are in the state. Even Houston's feeling the pinch. An estimated 70
percent to 80 percent of the 10,587 births at Ben Taub General Hospital and
Lyndon B. Johnson General Hospital last year were to undocumented immigrants,
administrators say.
Also feeling the strain is Starr
County, an already poor South Texas county that has the region's only taxpayer‑supported
hospital district.
Immigrants "want a U.S.‑born
baby" and know that emergency room staffers don't collect any money up
front, said Dr. Mario Rodriguez, an obstetrician in Starr County.
"The word is out: Come to
Starr County and get delivered for free. Why pay $1,000 in Mexico when you can
get it for free?" Rodriguez said.
'Unfortunately, doctors say, Starr
County isn't alone.
“OUR LITTLE SNAPSHOT IS DUPLICATED
IN ALL THE MUNICIPALITIES BETWEEN HERE AND CALIFORNIA.....” how about every
muni in all 50 states? Know of a state not overrun by illegals?
''Our little snapshot is duplicated
in all the municipalities between here and California," said Tony Falcon,
a Rio Grande City physician who was appointed to the U.S.‑Mexico Border Health
Commission in April. ''What you see here is what is happening in Brownsville,
McAllen, El Paso and San Diego."
Immigration‑control advocates
regard the U.S.‑born infants as "anchor babies" because they give
their undocumented parents and relatives a way to petition for citizenship.
They estimate that 360,000 of these babies are born in the U.S. every year and
warn that the numbers are rising.

Once parents have an "anchor baby," they become
more difficult to deport, said Jack Martin, a spokesman for the Federation for
American Immigration Reform, a lobby organization in Washington, D.C.
''It's a fairly big factor in complicating the removal of
illegal aliens," Martin said. "Illegal aliens know that and, to some
extent, we think they're being influenced into having children as soon as they
get into the U.S. to complicate their removal."
Some lawmakers want to begin denying citizenship to babies
born to illegal immigrants.
Birthright citizenship, as it is known, has been in force
since the approval of the Constitution's 14th Amendment in 1868. But several
bills under consideration in Congress would abolish the longstanding federal
policy. Sponsors include U.S. Reps. Ron Paul, R‑Lake Jackson, and Nathan Deal,
R‑Ga.
In a largely symbolic move, the Michigan House of
Representatives voted overwhelmingly on Sept. 8 to end birthright citizenship.
Uncollected medical bills
Starr County Memorial Hospital had $3.6 million in
uncollected medical bills in 2005, up from $1.5 million in 2002. The total when
fiscal 2006 ends on Sept. 30 is expected to hit $3.9 million, chief financial
officer Rafael Olivarez said. Unpaid bills for the past five years will reach
nearly $13 million, he said.
To make up for the shortfall, Starr County's hospital
district is proposing a 25 percent tax hike.
Already, the U.S. government is pitching in, setting aside
$1 billion in Medicaid funds to pay for emergency care received by undocumented
migrants over the next four years.
But Olivarez said getting the reimbursements isn't easy.
Federal officials ''told us at a meeting they would pay us about 20 cents on
the dollar," he said. "But it's better than nothing."
No one knows for sure how many undocumented immigrants there
are or what they cost the health care system. Most hospitals don't ask whether
patients have papers.
Total cost unknown.

THE LA RAZA “THE RACE”
BREEDERS:
Nearly 25
Percent of Children Younger Than 5 Are Latino, Census Says
By N.C. AizenmanWashington Post Staff
WriterThursday, May 1, 2008; A02
Hispanics, the nation's
largest and fastest-growing minority group, now account for about one in four
children younger than 5 in the United States, according to U.S. Census Bureau
estimates released today.
The increase from almost one
in five in 2000 has broad implications for governments, communities and schools
nationwide, suggesting that the meteoric rise in the Hispanic population that
demographers forecast for mid-century will occur even sooner among younger
generations.
"Hispanics have both a
larger proportion of people in their child-bearing years and tend to have
slightly more children," said Jeffrey S. Passel, senior demographer at the
Pew Hispanic Center and co-author of a recent study predicting that the Latino
population will double from 15 percent today to 30 percent by 2050.
"So this means that in
five years, a quarter of the 5- to 9-year-olds will be Hispanic, and in 10
years a quarter of the 10- to 14-year-olds will be Hispanic. It's just going to
move up through the age distribution with each successive cohort being slightly
more Hispanic," Passel said.
Hispanics account for more
than half of children younger than 5 in New Mexico and California, where their
share of the overall state population is 44 and 36 percent, respectively. In
Texas, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado, about one-third or more of children
younger than 5 are Hispanic.
The figures are less dramatic
but still notable in Virginia and Maryland. In both states, Hispanics account
for 11 percent of children younger than 5 -- and 7 and 6 percent of the overall
population, respectively.
Although the census is not
scheduled to release county-level data until later in the year, statistics
compiled by Washington-area school systems indicate that the number of
youngsters who are Latino is even higher in the Maryland and Virginia suburbs.
In Montgomery County,
for instance, Hispanics make up 14 percent of residents and 22 percent of
public school students. In Fairfax
County, Hispanics account for 13 percent of residents and 17
percent of students.
The census figures showed a
slight drop in immigration to the United States by Hispanics from July 1, 2006,
to July 1, 2007, vs. the previous 12-month period. That suggests that the U.S.
economic slowdown might have had some impact on immigration. For almost a
decade, U.S. births have accounted for a far greater share of the growth in the
Hispanic population than immigration.
Nonetheless, many researchers
warn that the higher-than-average poverty rate of U.S.-born Latino children and
the fact that many are raised by immigrant parents pose particular challenges
to their education and integration.
"Based on what we know,
many in this population may not be growing up speaking English in their
homes," said Margie McHugh, co-director of the National Center on
Immigrant Integration Policy at the Migration Policy Institute in Washington. In a
recent study, McHugh found that 75 percent of limited-English-proficient
students in Los Angeles County
elementary schools were born in the United States.
Adding to the difficulties
facing such children, McHugh said, is the fact that Latinos are increasingly
moving to states and counties where they have not been historically
concentrated.
"Because of the
accountability requirements in the No Child Left Behind law, many of these
states and localities have already been thinking hard about how to serve these
children," she said. "But the gap between the services they have in
place and what's needed is quite large."
The shifts in focus and
resources that local school systems make to address the needs of growing Latino
and immigrant populations can arouse concern and resentment among other
residents, said Audrey Singer, a researcher with the Brookings Institution who has studied new
immigrant gateway states.
"Schools are often on the
frontline for debate in communities because they are on the leading edge of
change," Singer said. "People who might not otherwise have an opinion
take notice when the schools begin to change."
Yet the increasing number of
Latino youths might enrich mainstream U.S. culture in unexpected ways, Singer
said.
"A lot of popular culture
comes from youth culture, and we already see the effect of the newest
demographic waves in current music and new media," she said.
The rise in the Latino
population has been accompanied by significant, if slower, growth among African
Americans and Asians. Minorities account for one-third of the U.S. population,
a similar portion of Virginia's population and 42 percent of Maryland's.
The District, which the census
treats as a state, stands in marked exception to that trend. As once-affordable
neighborhoods have gentrified over the past decade, the city has been losing
black residents while gaining white newcomers, steadily diminishing its
longtime status as a majority-black metropolis.
The latest census figures
confirm that pattern, with non-Hispanic blacks accounting for 54 percent of the
District's population in 2007, compared with 60 percent in 2000. Meanwhile, the
number of non-Hispanic whites increased from 28 to 33 percent in that period,
while the Hispanic and non-Hispanic Asian population remained at 8 and 3
percent, respectively.

If we don't get this immigration monster stopped within three years, it
will rage like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path,
especially The American Dream.
“First, to destroy America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country... History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures.”
“I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I
would develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for America it
must always be good. I would make every individual immigrant symmetric and
ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them.” “First, to destroy America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country... History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures.”
Finally he said, 'Lastly, I would censor Victor Hanson Davis's book
'Mexifornia.' His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If
you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don't read that book.'

The
Administration's Phantom Immigration Enforcement Policy
According
to DHS’s own reports, very little of our nation’s borders (Southwestern or
otherwise) are secure, and gaining control is not even a goal of the
department.

The
setting was not quite the flight deck of the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln with a
“Mission Accomplished” banner as the backdrop, but it was the next best thing.
Speaking at the Center for American Progress (CAP) on Nov. 13, Homeland
Security Secretary Janet Napolitano declared victory over illegal immigration
and announced that the Obama administration is ready to move forward with a
mass amnesty for the millions of illegal aliens already living in the United
States.
Arguing
the Obama administration’s case for amnesty, Napolitano laid out what she
described as the “three-legged stool” for immigration reform. As the
administration views it, immigration reform 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.”
Acknowledging
that a lack of confidence in the government’s ability and commitment to
effectively enforce the immigration laws it passes proved to be the Waterloo of
previous efforts to gain amnesty for illegal aliens, Napolitano was quick to
reassure the American public that those concerns could be put to rest.
“For
starters, the security of the Southwest border has been transformed from where
it was in 2007,” stated the secretary. Not only is the border locked up tight,
she continued, but the situation is well in-hand in the interior of the country
as well. “We’ve also shown that the government is serious and strategic in its
approach to enforcement by making changes in how we enforce the law in the
interior of the country and at worksites…Furthermore, we’ve transformed
worksite enforcement to truly address the demand side of illegal immigration.”
If
Rep. Joe Wilson had been in attendance to hear Secretary Napolitano’s CAP
speech he might well have had a few choice comments to offer. But since he
wasn’t, we will have to rely on the Department of Homeland Security’s own data
to assess the veracity of Napolitano’s claims.
According
to DHS’s own reports, very little of our nation’s borders (Southwestern or
otherwise) are secure, and gaining control is not even a goal of the
department. DHS claims to have “effective control” over just 894 miles of
border. That’s 894 out of 8,607 miles they are charged with protecting. As for
the other 7,713 miles? DHS’s stated border security goal for FY 2010 is the
same 894 miles.
The
administration’s strategic approach to interior and worksite enforcement is
just as chimerical as its strategy at the border, unless one considers
shuffling paper to be a strategy. DHS data, released November 18, show that
administrative arrests of immigration law violators fell by 68 percent between
2008 and 2009. The department also carried out 60 percent fewer arrests for
criminal violations of immigration laws, 58 percent fewer criminal indictments,
and won 63 percent fewer convictions.
While
the official unemployment rate has climbed from 7.6 percent when President
Obama took office in January to 10 percent today, the administration’s worksite
enforcement strategy has amounted to a bureaucratic game of musical chairs. The
administration has all but ended worksite enforcement actions and replaced them
with paperwork audits. When the audits determine that illegal aliens are on the
payroll, employers are given the opportunity to fire them with little or no
adverse consequence to the company, while no action is taken to remove the
illegal workers from the country. The illegal workers simply acquire a new set
of fraudulent documents and move on to the next employer seeking workers
willing to accept substandard wages.
In
Janet Napolitano’s alternative reality a mere 10 percent of our borders under
“effective control” and sharp declines in arrests and prosecutions of
immigration lawbreakers may be construed as confidence builders, but it is hard
to imagine that the American public is going to see it that way. If anything,
the administration’s record has left the public less confident that promises of
future immigration enforcement would be worth the government paper they’re
printed on.
As
Americans scrutinize the administration’s plans to overhaul immigration policy,
they are likely to find little in the “three-legged stool” being offered that
they like or trust. The first leg – enforcement – the administration has all
but sawed off. The second – increased admissions of extended family members and
workers – makes little sense with some 25 million Americans either unemployed
or relegated to part-time work. And the third – amnesty for millions of illegal
aliens – is anathema to their sense of justice and fair play.
As
Americans well know, declaring “Mission Accomplished” and actually
accomplishing a mission are two completely different things. When it comes to
enforcing immigration laws, the only message the public is receiving from this
administration is “Mission Aborted.”
