Maryland has
the 10th-largest population of undocumented immigrants in the country, an
estimated 275,000, according to the Pew Hispanic Center. Baltimore and
Montgomery County were the final jurisdictions in Maryland to fall under the
Secure Communities program, which has led to 670 deportations in the state
since 2008.

Mayor seeks to allay immigrant fears
Order will prohibit police from
asking about citizenship

In response to a
controversial federal immigration policy expanded to Baltimore last week, Mayor
Stephanie Rawlings-Blake will sign an executive order Friday that would
prohibit police officers from asking about a person's citizenship status.
The
measure comes days after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it would
begin implementing a program called Secure Communities in the city. Under the
program, federal agencies check the immigration status of arrestees booked in
local jails and can deport those who are in the country illegally.
Immigrants
— both legal and illegal — and city police are concerned that the policy will
chill communication between the Hispanic community and law enforcement. The
city is particularly worried that witnesses and victims will be less likely to
come forward with information for fear of being caught up in immigration court
and deported.
The
order "will make clear that all victims and witnesses of crime in
Baltimore, regardless of immigration status, must be treated with human dignity
and respect," Rawlings-Blake said in a statement. "This policy will
ensure that victims and witnesses can continue to feel safe reporting"
crimes to police.
The
executive order will not affect the underlying federal policy. Moreover, city
officials have already stated publicly that police will not act as immigration
agents. But Rawlings-Blake's administration hopes that formalizing the policy
will allay concerns.
Maryland has the 10th-largest
population of undocumented immigrants in the country, an estimated 275,000,
according to the Pew Hispanic Center. Baltimore and Montgomery County were the
final jurisdictions in Maryland to fall under the Secure Communities program,
which has led to 670 deportations in the state since 2008.

Dear
Baltimore City Residents;
Look
around the city. Do you like what you see as a whole? Gang members, slum
housing, crumbling roads, increasing crime (mostly unreported), very high unemployment,
etc, etc, etc. Well, if you agree that all these things are taking place and
you voted for the Democratic party, well you got EXACTLY what you deserved. The
current Mayor is a hack of the far left just like the past criminal who stole
gift cards! I drive down to Fells Point all the time and it's slowing growing
into a little "illegal" Mexico.
I
can complain about all this I want since I live in this city, pay high taxes,
and yes vote. My voice is impotant but with all the
"head-in-the-sand" liberals living here NOTHING will ever change and
only get worse.
I'm
really not sure why we continue to vote this same party in power other than
it's easy and people really don't care. There's nothing else to show why this
continues year after year.
Feel
free to challege me on this response since I cannot imagaine why we continue to
allow illegals the "special" rights when they are not contributing to
society....only sucking from it!

The only sane grounds that the states of Arizona, Alabama, Georgia, Utah, Indiana and South Carolina were forced into a enacting their own illegal immigration laws, is because government deliberately or through unresponsiveness failed to secure this nation from invasion. Years of failure has added millions of illegal foreigners to the welfare rolls, as now and before the politicians cannot or will not, secure the border with agents and troops, or the movement of legal/illegal entry by airline tourists who then stay permanently. The only ways to survive this parody is by voting out the pro-illegal immigrant lawmaker or induce them to cosponsor two laws, which will in a timely fashion start the exodus of people having no right to be here.

Every
American voter has a chance to fight against unfair taxation, which through
judicial unfunded mandates is placed firmly in the taxpayers lap. In this
session of Congress or before the 2012 election, it is urgent you concentrate
in phoning or otherwise contacting Democrat, Republican Senators and House
Congressmen at 202-224-3121 to inform them strongly you want both nationwide
E-Verify and the citizenship bill passed.
A
study released by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR)
estimates that illegal immigration now costs taxpayers $113 billion a year. The
report, The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on U.S. Taxpayers, is the most
complete analysis of how much an estimated 13 million illegal aliens (this is a
government statistic, well below the population number that other organizations
have projected,) and their U.S.-born children cost to subsidize, with
increasing expenditures.
