THE WAR ON THE AMERICAN WORKER IS GOING WELL!
“Once again it is
clear that corporate America, special interests and the out-of-touch elites of
the Senate have little regard for truth, working Americans, the common good and
the national interest. The Democratic Party is now putting working Americans
and their families in the exact same position as the Republicans: last. This
Democratic-led Congress and this Republican President seem intent on pushing
middle-class Americans, and truth, into the shadows.” LOU DOBBS
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CAN THANK BARACK OBAMA FOR HIS OPEN
BORDERS, AND AGENDA OF LA RAZA SUPREMACY – BUYING THE ILLEGALS’ VOTES WITH OUR
JOBS AND ENDLESS GRINGO-PAID DREAM ACTS.
THE MEX OCCUPATION DEPRESSES WAGES FROM $300 TO $400 BILLION
PER YEAR, PARTICULARLY FOR BLACK AMERICANS, WHO ONCE AGAIN PERMITTED OBAMA TO
PUNK US DESPITE THE FACT HIS
ADMINISTRATION IS INFESTED WITH LA RAZA SUPREMACIST, SUCH AS THE OUT GOING SEC.
OF LABOR, LA RAZA HILDA SOLIS!
DURING OBAMA’S FIRST TERM, TWO-THIRDS OF ALL JOBS WENT TO
IMMIGRANTS, BOTH LEGAL AND LEGAL. THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION’S ENFORCEMENT OF
LAWS PROHIBITING THE EMPLOYMENT OF ILLEGALS WAS DOWN 70%.
VIVA LA RAZA SUPREMACY? NOW UNIONS ARE HISPANDERING FOR OPEN
BORDERS, NO E-VERIFY AND NO LEGAL NEED APPLY!
UNIONS ARE NOTHING MORE THAN ORGANIZED CRIME. THEY’RE IN BED
WITH ANY SPECIAL INTERESTS OUT THERE, AND FOR THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, THAT MEANS LA
RAZA SUPREMACY.
THESE CORRUPT UNIONS ARE NOW BELLYING UP TO THE U.S. CHAMBER
of COMMENCE, WHICH FRONT FOR BIG BUSINESS LOOTERS. THE CHAMBER SHOULD BE ANY
UNIONS’S WORST ENEMY.
THE U.S. CHAMBER of COMMERCE BEDS WITH OBAMA AND THE CORRUPT
DEM PARTY FOR OPEN BORDERS, ENDLESS HORDES OF HEAVY BREEDING MEXICANS. THE
CHAMBER, LIKE LA RAZA OBAMA, DEMANDS NO E-VERIFY, WHICH EFFECTIVELY WOULD END
ILLEGALS IN OUR JOBS!
THE
ENTIRE REASON THE BORDERS ARE LEFT OPEN IS TO CUT WAGES!
“We could cut unemployment in half simply by reclaiming the jobs
taken by illegal workers,” said Representative Lamar Smith of
Texas, co-chairman of the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus. “President Obama is on
the wrong side of the American people on immigration. The president should
support policies that help citizens and legal immigrants find the jobs they
need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws.”
*
“The principal beneficiaries of our current
immigration policy are affluent Americans who hire immigrants at substandard
wages for low-end work. Harvard economist George Borjas estimates that American
workers lose $190 billion annually in depressed wages caused by the constant
flooding of the labor market at the low-wage end.” Christian

“In the end, the unions only continue to stagger on at the behest
of a section of big business and the government, which believe the attacks on
the working class can be carried out more effectively by using the services of
union apparatus than without them.
This is what lies behind the unions’ support for President Barack
Obama and the Democratic Party, even as they collaborate with the Republicans
to slash social services, dismantle public education and attack the jobs,
living standards and social rights of the working class. A case in point is the
2009 auto bailout, where the UAW was handed a substantial ownership stake in GM
and Chrysler in exchange for agreeing to a 50 percent wage cut for new hires,
the elimination of the eight-hour day and other concessions.”
Union membership in US
hits lowest level in nearly a century…so they look for la raza membership
expansion!
By Jerry White
25 January 2013
25 January 2013
Driven largely by layoffs of teachers, firefighters and other
public sector workers, union membership fell by another 400,000 in 2012, to
just 14.3 million, according to report released by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics this week. The number of workers in unions dropped even as total
employment rose by 2.4 million last year, largely through an expansion of
low-paying retail, restaurant and manufacturing jobs.
Following a decades-long trend, the percentage of overall union
membership fell to only 11.3 percent. This is the lowest level since 1916, the
year after the US Supreme Court upheld “yellow dog” contracts that forbid
workers from joining unions.
Private sector unionization, already at the lowest rate since
1901, fell to just 6.6 percent, down from 6.9 percent in 2011. Private sector
unionization peaked at 30 percent in 1958 and was still at 20.8 percent as late
as 1980.
In several industrial states, union membership fell even more
sharply than the national average. This included Michigan, where the percentage
fell to 16.6 percent, compared with 17.5 percent in 2011. The state lost 42,000
union workers last year, down to 629,000. In contrast, in 1970 Michigan had 1.2
million union workers representing 40 percent of the state’s workforce.
The number of public sector workers in unions fell by 234,000,
down to 35.9 percent of the workforce, from 37 percent the previous year. There
was a particularly sharp fall in states that adopted so-called right-to-work
laws that bar contracts that make the payment of union or association fees a
condition of employment.
The sharp falloff in membership in Wisconsin and Indiana, and the
failure of the UAW and other unions to mount any serious opposition to the
passage of right-to-work legislation in Michigan last year, is a measure of the
deep alienation of workers from the unions, which are rightly seen as tools of
management.
In the end, the unions only continue to stagger on at the behest
of a section of big business and the government, which believe the attacks on
the working class can be carried out more effectively by using the services of
union apparatus than without them.
This is what lies behind the unions’ support for President Barack
Obama and the Democratic Party, even as they collaborate with the Republicans
to slash social services, dismantle public education and attack the jobs,
living standards and social rights of the working class. A case in point is the
2009 auto bailout, where the UAW was handed a substantial ownership stake in GM
and Chrysler in exchange for agreeing to a 50 percent wage cut for new hires,
the elimination of the eight-hour day and other concessions.
Even as the membership of the UAW plummeted from 1.5 million in
1979 to less than 600,000 today, the assets of the union apparatus and the salaries
and perks it dispenses to its bloated staff have increased.
Public sector unions, like the American Federation of State,
County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), the American Federation of Teachers
(AFT) and the National Education Association (NEA), have likewise opposed any
resistance to the austerity measures spearheaded by Obama and state and local
governments led by both parties.
In a statement, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka—who as former
president of the United Mine Workers of America oversaw the virtual
disappearance of the UMWA in the coalfields—blamed the collapse in union
membership on “our still-struggling economy, weak laws and political as well as
ideological assaults” on unions.
In fact, the shrinking of the unions to near extinction is the
result of the decades-long degeneration. This is itself bound up with the
anti-communist purges carried out in the postwar period and the bankruptcy of
the unions’ program of economic nationalism in the face of the globalization of
production.
The American trade unions, like nationally based trade unions all
over the world, responded to globalization by suppressing any resistance by the
working class to the destruction of jobs and living standards.
In the name of making US corporations more competitive and
profitable, major strikes all but disappeared. Work stoppages involving 1,000
or more workers fell to a record low of five in 2009, and only 19 in 2011. This
compares to 470 in 1952, 424 in 1974 and 145 as late as 1981, the year Reagan
fired the striking air traffic controllers.
The artificial suppression of the class struggle by the unions has
only led to a buildup of social anger, which sooner rather than later will come
to the surface. The way forward for the working class is not trying to reform
these rotten organizations, which are controlled by upper middle class union
executives whose interests are hostile to those of the workers they allegedly
represent. Instead, new organizations, controlled by rank-and-file workers and
independent of the unions and the Democratic Party, must be built to spearhead
an industrial and political struggle of the working class.

The massive corporate mouthpiece the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is
holding a “North American Forum” to lay out its “shared vision” for the United
States, Canada and Mexico – which is to say a borderless, pro-business
super-state in which U.S. sovereignty will be dissolved. Undercover
investigators have found incredibly lax security and enforcement at U.S. border
crossings, according to a new report by the Government Accountability Office. This report comes on the heels of a separate report by
U.C. San Diego that shows tougher border security efforts aren’t deterring
illegal entries to the United States.

SO THERE ARE 27 MILLION AMERICANS
UNEMPLOYED, SO THE SOLUTION IS TO GIVE AMNESTY TO MILIONS OF ILLEGALS IN OUR
JOBS, AND LOOTING US FROM LEFT TO RIGHT????
U.S. Chamber of
Commerce President and CEO Tom Donohue, noting that 27 million Americans are
unemployed, underemployed, or have given up on finding a job, said his
organization supports a "way" "to legitimacy" for the
estimated 12 to 14 million illegal aliens who are working in the United States.
HERE’S SOME REALITY MR. DONOHUE!
THE
ENTIRE REASON THE BORDERS ARE LEFT OPEN IS TO CUT WAGES!
“We could cut unemployment in half simply by reclaiming the jobs
taken by illegal workers,” said Representative Lamar Smith of
Texas, co-chairman of the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus. “President Obama is on
the wrong side of the American people on immigration. The president should
support policies that help citizens and legal immigrants find the jobs they
need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws.”
Chamber of Commerce Says It Supports Path 'To Legitimacy'
for 12 Million Illegal Aliens
Tom
Donohue, president and CEO of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, said on Tuesday,
Jan. 11, 2011 that illegal aliens should be gain 'legitimacy' in the United
States through 'comprehensive immigration reform' law. (CNSNews.com/Penny
Starr)
(CNSNews.com) - U.S. Chamber of Commerce President and CEO
Tom Donohue, noting that 27 million Americans are unemployed, underemployed, or
have given up on finding a job, said his organization supports a
"way" "to legitimacy" for the estimated 12 to 14 million
illegal aliens who are working in the United States.
“Unemployment
had exceeded 9 percent for 20 consecutive months,” Donohue said in his annual State of
American Business address at the Chamber’s headquarters in Washington, D.C., on
Tuesday. “Some 27 million Americans are either unemployed, underemployed or have
give up looking for work.”
“In
fact,” Donohue said, “we must create 1.2 million jobs a year just to absorb the
new entrants into our workforce.”
Later
in his remarks, Donohue said the Chamber would continue its efforts in support
of comprehensive immigration reform, which some conservative critics consider
to be a form of amnesty.
“Almost all of us are sons, daughters, or descendents of
immigrants,” Donohue said. “The Chamber will continue to pursue comprehensive
immigration reform.” He also cited the "urgent" need to improve visa
processing, oppose attempts to gut temporary worker programs, and increase the
number of foreign worker visas.
At
a press conference following his speech, Donohue was asked by CNSNews.com if
comprehensive immigration reform included a so-called pathway to citizenship.
“We
think the most important parts of comprehensive immigration reform would be,
first of all, a way for the, shall we say 12 million here, to legitimacy so
that they can easily participate in society, pay their taxes, drive cars and
that sort of thing,” Donohue said. “Second we need a guest worker program,” he
said. “People could easily come back and forth for work and some of that would
be seasonally, for crops and for recreation organizations and so on.
“And
third, we definitely need a way to deal with high-end, talented folks that are
needed in this economy. Donohue called it "amazing" that after years
of training in America, professionals such as Ph.Ds in chemical engineering are
now finding it hard to stay here.
Donohue
said citizenship for illegal aliens should not be the top priority. “I don’t
think the citizenship thing is necessary right now,” said Donohue, adding that
protecting the U.S. border was also important. “I think we ought to pick the
four or five things that everybody needs and let’s get it done.”
Donohue
also said that the United States should keep the promise it made to Mexico 15
years ago to allow “safe, carefully inspected” Mexican trucks to transport
goods into the U.S., as called for in the North American Free Trade Agreement.
Labor unions strongly oppose the plan.
Donohue
said the U.S. economy is “in better shape than we found ourselves last year,”
and he noted “a new tone coming out of the White House.”
One
indication of warming relations between the White House and the Chamber, which
represents 3 million mostly small businesses, includes a scheduled address by
President Barack Obama at the group’s headquarters on Feb. 7.
Among
the areas Donohue said the Chamber would concentrate on in 2011:
--
restraint and reform of the regulatory process, including stopping the EPA from
enacting regulations to limit greenhouse gases – a task that should be left to
Congress, he said.
--Expanding
American trade, rebuilding the country’s infrastructure and developing U.S.
energy resources, and reducing the federal debt and deficit also made the top
four on Donohue’s to-do list.
Donohue concluded
his remarks with his trademark line-in-the-sand approach while expressing
optimism that the Chamber can “work together” with the Obama administration and
Congress in the coming year.
“Our
approach in Washington will be to call them as we see them,” Donohue said.
‘We’ll continue to have our differences with the White House on some issues but
we’ll work together on other issues."
“We’ll
support the new House leadership on many occasions, and we’ll work with
Democratic legislators as well, but no one should expect the Chamber to march
in lock step with anyone,” Donohue said.
“We
have a clear mission and agenda of our own,” he said. “It’s to continue to win
important policy victories for our members and the American business community.
It’s to support, protect, and advance the free enterprise system that made this
country great. And it’s to help create good jobs and promising opportunities
for all the people of our country so that they can achieve the American
dream."

from El Paso and Washington
President
Obama visited the southern border Tuesday to push for an overhaul of the
immigration system, part of a renewed effort to shore up his standing among
Latinos and paint Republicans as hostile to a minority group that is a growing force
in U.S. politics.
In a speech at the Chamizal National Memorial, Obama also sought to link the challenge of illegal immigration with another major political concern: economic anxiety. He said immigration reform "is an economic imperative."

"One way to strengthen the middle class in America is to reform the immigration system so that there's no longer a massive underground economy that exploits a cheap source of labor while depressing wages for everybody else," he said.
The chances of passing an immigration bill are low, but the White House is taking high-visibility steps to show it is not abandoning a goal that has its roots in the 2008 campaign.
In his appearance, Obama said his administration has made great strides in stopping immigrants from illegally crossing the southern border, even as Republican critics say he can do more.
"We have strengthened border security beyond what many believed was possible," he said.
But he said that illegal immigration requires a "comprehensive" solution that would also provide a path to legal status for the 11 million people living illegally in the United States. He also made another pitch for the Dream Act, which failed in the lame-duck session of Congress in December.
The speech comes after a series of meetings between the president and various stakeholders and reform activists in the past months. It was heavily promoted by the White House on a range of social media platforms, and Obama made a campaign-like pitch for the crowd to visit the White House website to sign up in support of his call for reform.
With Obama actively running for reelection, Republicans have questioned the sincerity and timing of his immigration push. House Speaker John A. Boehner's office said it hasn't even heard from the White House on the issue, evidence that immigration is not a serious legislative priority.
White House aides have not released a timetable for passing a bill, nor have they put forward a draft that could be the basis for congressional action.
Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said in a statement: "It seems President Obama has once again put on his campaigner-in-chief hat. The president's push to legalize millions of illegal immigrants is purely political. The president wasn't able to pass his version of immigration reform when he had large Democratic majorities in the House and Senate because of bipartisan opposition."
Following the speech, Obama was to travel to Austin for a pair of fundraisers for his 2012 reelection campaign.

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY – NOW PARTY ONLY
FOR CRIMINAL BANKSTERS AND FRONT FOR THE MEXICAN FASCIST PARTY of LA RAZA!
Dobbs: Democratic hacks embrace lunacy of amnesty
NEW YORK (CNN) -- This new Congress was
supposed to be different. Instead, it is being led by a gaggle of partisan
hacks pandering to the same special interests and corporate masters as the
previous Republican-led Congress. So-called comprehensive immigration
reform legislation is about to take a privileged position on the Democratic
agenda in the Senate. It will likely succeed, just as it did in that august
chamber last year, when 38 Democratic senators sided with the president to pass
the bill and tried to slam amnesty down the throats of the House of
Representatives and their 300 million constituents. And the now
Democratic-controlled House is likely to embrace rather than combat the lunacy
of amnesty. The same characters are already shoveling the same nonsense that
overwhelmed reason in the Democratic Party and the Bush administration last
year. Front and center in their march to madness: The bill's sponsor, Senator Ted
Kennedy, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Chair of the Congressional Hispanic
Caucus Immigration Task Force Rep. Luis Gutierrez and House Judiciary
Immigration Subcommittee Chairwoman Zoe Lofgren.
Also meeting with Sen. Kennedy this week is the Archbishop of Los Angeles,
Cardinal Roger Mahoney. The good senator is rounding up all of the usual
suspects to lead the charge in advance of his introduction of the amnesty
legislation, expected within the next week or two. Cardinal Mahoney has said
point blank that his followers should disregard laws on immigration as a matter
of Catholic conscience. This is the same Cardinal who fought all the way to the
Supreme Court to keep secret all documents related to pedophilia among priests.
But the Cardinal and other Catholic leaders are quick to embrace the laws of
bankruptcy protection in order to not compensate victims of sexual abuse by
members of the clergy and keep them out of the U.S. judicial system. So far,
five such dioceses have done just that. The same corporate lobbyists and
dominant special interests that drove last year's legislation are even more
energetic this year, and they're enthusiastically helping Senator Kennedy write
the new legislation. The biggest business lobby in the country, the U.S.
Chamber of Commerce, and its associated organization, the Essential Worker
Immigration Coalition, are actually writing parts of the bill, presumably so
that none of our other senators would be unfairly burdened by actually doing
their own work. Or perhaps in Senator Kennedy's estimation, they simply don't
have the intellectual wherewithal to tackle the required mental heavy-lifting.
Senator Kennedy and his staff claim they're not being secretive about the
details of the so-called comprehensive immigration reform, but they're just not
willing to tell the public or other senators how the bill is being constructed.
Notable Republicans are growing increasingly frustrated by their exclusion from
the process, taking some umbrage at the immigrant advocacy groups replacing them
in that process.

The Chamber of Commerce itself is feverish with expectation, confident
their reform bill will certainly keep wages depressed.
*
The Chamber of Commerce itself is feverish with expectation, confident
their reform bill will certainly keep wages depressed. The Chamber claims
there's a labor shortage in many of these industries: construction, housing
services, leisure and hospitality. And that's where the cleverly named
Essential Worker Immigration Coalition comes in. Founded, staffed and supported
by the Chamber itself, the coalition is made up of the same industries claiming
they desperately need more workers. But there is a non-trivial disconnect here:
In each of those industries, a labor shortage leads to higher wages.
Unfortunately for the EWIC and the Chamber, and really for American workers,
real wages in those industries have been declining, suggesting a very real
surplus, not a deficit, of unskilled labor. Yet this President and this
Congress continues to push the adoption of a guest-worker program. It's no
wonder they have matching approval ratings in the low 30s. (THERE ARE ONLY EIGHT (8) STATES WITH A POPULATION
GREATER THAN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, WHICH PAYS OUT $600 MILLION PER YEAR IN
WELFARE TO ILLEGALS, AND 93% OF ALL SERVICE AND CONSTRUCTION SECTOR JOBS GO TO
ILLEGAL USING STOLEN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS. THE TAX-FREE MEXICAN UNDERGROUND
ECONOMY IN L.A. COUNTY IS BELIEVED TO BE IN EXCESS OF $2 BILLION PER YEAR!) Real wages in the overall construction
sector have fallen nearly 2 percent since the start of the decade and nearly 4
percent since the recent wage peak in 2003. Construction workers in 2006 were
making the same per-hour salary as they did in 1965 (measured in 1982 dollars).
Landscaping workers have also seen real wages fall by nearly 4 percent since
2001. For the leisure and hospitality sector, workers are making the same
per-hour salary as they did in 1972. I've said for years that we cannot
reform immigration if we cannot control it, and we cannot control it unless we
secure our borders and ports. Once again
it is clear that corporate America, special interests and the out-of-touch
elites of the Senate have little regard for truth, working Americans, the
common good and the national interest. The Democratic Party is now putting
working Americans and their families in the exact same position as the
Republicans: last. This Democratic-led Congress and this Republican President
seem intent on pushing middle-class Americans, and truth, into the shadows. We
asked for bipartisanship. But I don't think we can stand any more of it.

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.
By Ira Mehlman

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.”

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 Administration Challenges
Arizona E-Verify Law
The
Obama administration has asked the Supreme Court to strike down a 2007 Arizona law that punishes employers who
hire illegal aliens, a law enacted by then-Governor Janet Napolitano. (Solicitor General's Amicus
Curiae Brief).
Called the “Legal Arizona Workers Act,” the law requires all employers in
Arizona to use E-Verify and provides that the business licenses of those who
hire illegal workers shall be repealed. From the date of enactment, the
Chamber of Commerce and other special interest groups have been trying to undo
it, attacking it through a failed ballot initiative and also through a lawsuit.
Now the Chamber is asking the United States Supreme Court to hear the case (Chamber
of Commerce v. Candelaria), and the Obama Administration is weighing in
against the law.
To
date, Arizona’s E-Verify law has been upheld by all lower courts, including the
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Ninth Circuit, in particular, viewed it as
an exercise of a state’s traditional power to regulate businesses. (San Francisco Chronicle, June 2, 2010).
Obama’s Justice Department, however, disagrees. Acting Solicitor General Neal
Katyal said in his filing with the Supreme Court that the lower courts were
wrong to uphold the statute because federal immigration law expressly preempts
any state law imposing sanctions on employers hiring illegal immigrants.
Mr. Katyal argues that this is not a licensing law, but “a statute that
prohibits the hiring of unauthorized aliens and uses suspension and revocation
of all state-issued licenses as its ultimate sanction.” (Solicitor General's Amicus
Curiae Brief,
p. 10). This is the administration’s first court challenge to a state’s
authority to act against illegal immigration, and could be a preview of the
battle brewing over Arizona’s recent illegal immigration crackdown through SB
1070.
Napolitano
has made no comment on the Department of Justice’s decision to challenge the
2007 law, but federal officials said that she has taken an active part in the
debate over whether to do so. (Politico, May 28, 2010).
As Governor of Arizona, Napolitano said she believed the state law was valid
and became a defendant in the many lawsuits against it. (Id.).

relatively high without even a national debate," he said. "As a
consequence, a lot of the job growth has been going to immigrants."
Mr. Obama did take action
this year to grant many illegal immigrants up to 30 years of age a tentative
legal status that prevents them from being deported and authorizes them to work
in the United States.
Some Republicans in
Congress have criticized Mr. Obama's policy, saying it violates his powers and
will mean more competition for scarce jobs.

THE ENTIRE REASON THE BORDERS ARE LEFT OPEN
IS TO CUT WAGES!
Is Illegal Immigration Moral?
By Victor Davis Hanson
11/25/2010
We
know illegal immigration is no longer really unlawful, but is it moral?
Usually
Americans debate the fiscal costs of illegal immigration. Supporters of open
borders rightly remind us that illegal immigrants pay sales taxes. Often their
payroll-tax contributions are not later tapped by Social Security payouts.
Opponents
counter that illegal immigrants are more likely to end up on state assistance,
are less likely to report cash income, and cost the state more through the
duplicate issuing of services and documents in both English and Spanish. Such
to-and-fro talking points are endless.
So
is the debate over beneficiaries of illegal immigration. Are profit-minded
employers villains who want cheap labor in lieu of hiring more expensive
Americans? Or is the culprit a cynical Mexican government that counts on
billions of dollars in remittances from its expatriate poor that it otherwise
ignored?
OBAMA'S AMERICA: Open
& Undefended Borders!
"What we're seeing is our Congress and national leadership dismantling our laws by not enforcing them. Lawlessness becomes the norm, just like Third World corruption. Illegal aliens now have more rights and privileges than Americans. If you are an illegal alien, you can drive a car without a driver's license or insurance. You may obtain medical care without paying. You may work without paying taxes. Your children enjoy free education at the expense of taxpaying Americans."

2006 – ALIEN NATION: Secrets of the Invasion – Why America's government invites
rampant illegal immigration
It's widely regarded as
America's biggest problem: Between 12 and 20 million aliens – including large
numbers of criminals, gang members and even terrorists – have entered this
nation illegally, with countless more streaming across our scandalously
unguarded borders daily.
The issue polarizes the nation, robs citizens of jobs,
bleeds taxpayers, threatens America's national security and dangerously
balkanizes the country into unassimilated ethnic groups with little loyalty or
love for America's founding values. Indeed, the de facto invasion is rapidly
transforming America into a totally different country than the one past
generations have known and loved.
And yet – most Americans
have almost no idea what is really going on, or why it is happening.
While news reports depict demonstrations and debates, and
while politicians promise "comprehensive border security programs,"
no real answers ever seem to emerge.
But there are answers. Truthful answers. Shocking answers.
In its groundbreaking May edition, WND's acclaimed monthly
Whistleblower magazine reveals the astounding hidden agendas, plans and people
behind America's immigration nightmare.
Titled "ALIEN NATION," the issue is subtitled
"SECRETS OF THE INVASION: Why government invites rampant illegal
immigration." Indeed, it reveals pivotal secrets very few Americans know.
For example:
Did you know that the powerfully influential Council on
Foreign Relations – often described as a “shadow government" – issued a
comprehensive report last year laying out a five-year plan for the
"establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security
community" with a common "outer security perimeter"?
Roughly translated: In the next few years, according to the
59-page report titled "Building a North American Community," the U.S.
must be integrated with the socialism, corruption, poverty and population of
Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between
the U.S., Mexico and Canada. As Phyllis
Schlafly reveals in this issue of Whistleblower: "This CFR document
asserts that President Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox and Canadian Prime
Minister Paul Martin 'committed their governments' to this goal when they met
at Bush's ranch and at Waco, Texas, on March 23, 2005. The three adopted the
'Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America' and assigned 'working
groups' to fill in the details. It was at this same meeting, grandly called the
North American Summit, that President Bush pinned the epithet 'vigilantes' on
the volunteers guarding our border in Arizona."
The CFR report – important excerpts of which are published
in Whistleblower – also suggests North American elitists begin getting together
regularly, and presumably secretly, "to buttress North American
relationships, along the lines of the Bilderberg or Wehrkunde conferences,
organized to support transatlantic relations." The Bilderberg and
Wehrkunde conferences are highly secret conclaves of the powerful. For decades,
there have been suspicions that such meetings were used for plotting the course
of world events and especially the centralization of global decision-making.
Did you know that radical immigrant groups – including the
League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the Mexican American Legal
Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF), the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de
Aztlan (MEChA) and the National Council of La Raza (La Raza) – not only share a
revolutionary agenda of conquering America's southwest, but they also share
common funding sources, notably the Ford and Rockefeller foundations?
''California is going to be a Hispanic state," said
Mario Obeldo, former head of MALDEF. "Anyone who does not like it should
leave." And MEChA's goal is even more radical: an independent ''Aztlan,''
the collective name this organization gives to the seven states of the U.S.
Southwest – Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Utah.
So why would the Rockefeller and Ford foundations support such groups? Joseph
Farah tells the story in this issue of Whistleblower.
Why have America's politicians – of both major parties –
allowed the illegal alien invasion of this nation to continue for the last 30
years unabated? With al-Qaida and allied terrorists promising to annihilate
major U.S. cities with nuclear weapons, with some big-city hospital emergency
rooms near closure due to the crush of so many illegals, with the rapid spread
throughout the U.S. of MS-13, the super-violent illegal alien gang – with all
this and more, why do U.S. officials choose to ignore the laws of the land and
the will of the people to pursue, instead, policies of open borders and lax
immigration enforcement?
The answers to all this and much more are in
Whistleblower's "ALIEN NATION" issue.
Is there hope? Or is America lost to a demographic invasion
destined to annihilate its traditional Judeo-Christian culture, and to the
ever-growing likelihood that nuclear-armed jihadists will cross our porous
borders and wreak unthinkable destruction here?
There most definitely is hope, according to this issue of
Whistleblower. Although most politicians of both major political parties have
long since abdicated their responsibility for securing America's borders and
dealing effectively with the millions already here illegally, there are a few
exceptions – most notably Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo.
May's Whistleblower includes an exclusive sneak preview of
Tancredo's forthcoming blockbuster book, "In Mortal Danger: The Battle for
America’s Border and Security." In an extended excerpt, Whistleblower
presents Tencredo's expert and inspired analysis of exactly how to solve the
nation's most vexing problem.

Two-thirds of jobs go to immigrants during Obama’s
four years
Researchers say
legals and illegals are more mobile than natives in America
The Washington Times
October 31, 2012
Two-thirds of those who have found employment under President
Obama are immigrants, both legal and illegal, according to an analysis that
suggests immigration has soaked up a large portion of what little job growth
there has been over the past three years.
The Center for Immigration Studies is releasing the study Thursday
morning, a day ahead of the final Labor Department unemployment report of the
campaign season, which is expected to show a sluggish job market more than
three years into the economic recovery.
That slow market, combined with the immigration numbers, could
explain why Mr. Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney have struggled to find
a winning jobs message in some of the country's hardest-hit postindustrial
regions.
"It's extraordinary that most of the employment growth in the
last four years has gone to the foreign-born, but what's even more
extraordinary is the issue has not even come up during a presidential election
that is so focused on jobs," said Steven A. Camarota, the center's research
director, who wrote the report along with demographer Karen Zeigler.
His numbers are stark: Since the first quarter of 2009, the number
of immigrants of working age (16 to 65) who are employed has risen 2 million,
from 21.2 million to 23.2 million. During the same time, native-born employment
has risen just 1 million, to reach 119.9 million.
It's a trend years in
the making: Immigrants are working more, and native-born Americans are working
less.
“What's
needed to discourage illegal immigration into the United States has been known
for years: Enforce existing law.” CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR

Amnesty
for Immigrants?
To the Editor:
Jorge G.
Castañeda and Douglas S. Massey (“Do-It-Yourself Immigration Reform,” Op-Ed, June 2)
argue that we should grant amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants because
illegal immigration from Mexico is down. But this conclusion is flawed.
First, they claim
that Mexican illegal immigration is down because of decreased job
opportunities. But this doesn’t mean that illegal immigrants won’t try to enter
once the economy improves.
For this reason,
we need to turn off the jobs magnet that encourages illegal immigration. We
should expand E-Verify, a Web-based program that quickly identifies illegal
immigrants working here and protects jobs for legal workers.
And since the
Government Accountability Office has found that only 44 percent of the
Southwest border is under the “operational control” of the Border Patrol, the
border is still not secure and remains an open invitation to more illegal
immigration.
Second, while illegal immigration has slightly diminished, it’s
still a problem. Last year, more than 340,000 people were apprehended trying to
enter the country illegally. But it’s estimated that there are two to three
successful illegal crossings for every one thwarted. That means more than a
million illegal immigrants could have entered last year.

need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws.”

OBAMA’S ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS JUSTICE MAY SUE ARIZONA OVER
NEW IMMIGRATION LAW…. Which Only Mirrors EXISTING FEDERAL UNENFORCED LAW!!!
Attorney General Eric Holder says the
Justice Department may sue Arizona over its new immigration law.
Washington (CNN) -- Attorney General Eric Holder said Sunday that the Justice Department was considering a federal lawsuit against Arizona's new immigration law.
"We are considering all of our options. One possibility is filing a lawsuit," Holder told NBC's "Meet the Press." Possible grounds for the lawsuit would be whether the Arizona law could lead to civil rights violations, he said.
By the CNN Wire Staff
May 9, 2010
The recently enacted Arizona law initially allowed police to ask anyone for proof of legal U.S. residency, based solely on a police officer's suspicion that the person might be in the country illegally. Arizona lawmakers soon amended the law so that officers could check a person's status only if the person had been stopped or arrested for another reason.
Critics say the law will lead to racial profiling, while supporters say it involves no racial profiling and is needed to crack down on increasing crime involving illegal immigrants.
In Arizona, the city councils of Tucson and Flagstaff have decided to challenge the new immigration law in court.
Holder told ABC's "This Week" program that one concern about the Arizona law is that "you'll end up in a situation where people are racially profiled, and that could lead to a wedge drawn between certain communities and law enforcement, which leads to the problem of people in those communities not willing to interact with people in law enforcement, not willing to share information, not willing to be witnesses where law enforcement needs them."
"I think we could potentially get on a slippery slope where people will be picked on because of how they look as opposed to what they have done, and that is, I think, something that we have to try to avoid at all costs," Holder added.
Holder said comprehensive federal immigration reform is the best approach for the problem of illegal immigrants crossing U.S. borders. His stance echoed the approach favored by President Obama, who last week criticized the Arizona law and said he wants Congress to work on the issue this year.
Comprehensive immigration reform would include continuing government efforts to secure borders from illegal immigrants, as well as steps to crack down on businesses that employ them, Obama said at a Cinco de Mayo celebration at the White House.
In addition, he said, those living illegally in the United States would have to pay a penalty and any taxes they owe, learn English and "make themselves right with the law" before starting the process of gaining U.S. citizenship.

THE CHAMBER of COMMERCE: WITHOUT SHAME or
SENSE
|

 |

The Chamber of Commerce is
rolling out its "jobs and economy" political initiative today. As Politico reports, the blitz is "designed
to drive voters toward '5 Questions to Ask Your Candidates', to be distributed
by mail and online to millions of voters."
Here are the five,
accompanied by five alternatives tied to reality rather than the Chamber's
ideological phantasmagoria:
1. Do you believe that our
free enterprise system is currently threatened?
Do you believe that entrenched corporate interests are blocking reforms vital to our country's future?
Do you believe that entrenched corporate interests are blocking reforms vital to our country's future?
2. Do you believe that tax
increases hurt job creation?
Do you believe that tax cuts
to businesses already awash in cash and excess capacity will create jobs or
waste money?
3. Do you think that the
growth of government at all levels and the deficits that follow negatively
impact job creation?
Do you think that
deregulation of corporations and banks and the financial high that followed,
crashing the economy, and doubling the national debt negatively impacted job
creation?
4. Would you deal with the
debt and deficit issues through increasing government revenue or decreasing
government spending?
Would you deal with debt and
deficit issues by building a new foundation for the economy so we can grow our
way out of the hole we are in, or with austerity, cutting spending on
education, energy, infrastructure, Medicare and Social Security to balance our
budget?
5. Do you believe that the
uncertainty resulting from pending tax increases, higher government deficits,
and more government regulations will hurt the economy?
Do you believe businesses
aren't hiring because they don't have customers, or that they are foregoing
profitable expansion, fretting about deficits, and possible increases in taxes
and regulations?
This country is struggling to
respond to the worst downturn since the Great Depression, a direct result of
the failed conservative policies that the Chamber of Commerce has advocated for
decades. Over the last decade, we lost one in three manufacturing jobs. Inequality
reached gilded age levels. CEOs and bankers pocketed million dollar bonuses
while cooking the books and gambling on exotic securities, inflating the
housing bubble until it burst. Health insurance companies kept a strangle hold
on a health care system that costs twice as much as those in other industrial
countries, leaves millions uninsured and provides worse health care.
Catastrophic climate change went unaddressed. Big Oil and big coal insured that
the US would forfeit the lead in the new green industrial revolution that is

directly to the financial wilding and collapse, the horrors of Massey in West
Virginia and BP in the Gulf, the risks of poisoned toys and infected eggs.
One would think that in the
ruins, the Chamber of Commerce would have the common decency to reconsider its
ideological positions. After all, they have not only been ruinous to workers
and the country, they led directly to the economic free fall that devastated
businesses. But no. Not one comma has been changed. Not a line changed in the
stump speech. Mindless, without shame or sense, blind to the world around it,
the Chamber gathers new millions from companies and peddles its poisonous
nostrums.

THE
ENTIRE REASON THE BORDERS ARE LEFT OPEN IS TO CUT WAGES!
“We could cut unemployment in half simply by
reclaiming the jobs taken by illegal workers,” said Representative Lamar Smith
of Texas, co-chairman of the Reclaim American Jobs Caucus. “President Obama
is on the wrong side of the American people on immigration. The president
should support policies that help citizens and legal immigrants find the jobs
they need and deserve rather than fail to enforce immigration laws.”

“The principal beneficiaries of our current
immigration policy are affluent Americans who hire immigrants at substandard
wages for low-end work. Harvard economist George Borjas estimates that
American workers lose $190 billion annually in depressed wages caused by the
constant flooding of the labor market at the low-wage end.” Christian Science

Think of it as a parable for these grim
economic times. On April 19th, McDonald's launched its first-ever national
hiring day, signing up 62,000 new workers at stores throughout the country. For
some context, that's more jobs created by one company in a single day than the
net job creation of the entire U.S. economy in 2009. And if that boggles the
mind, consider how many workers applied to local McDonald's franchises that day
and left empty-handed: 938,000 of them. With a 6.2% acceptance rate in its
spring hiring blitz, McDonald’s was more selective than the
Princeton, Stanford, or Yale University admission offices.
It shouldn’t be surprising that a million
souls flocked to McDonald's hoping for a steady paycheck, when nearly 14
million Americans are out of work and nearly a million more are too
discouraged even to look for a job. At this point, it apparently made no
difference to them that the fast-food industry pays some of the lowest wages
around: on average, $8.89 an hour, or barely half the $15.95 hourly average
across all American industries.

A
federal judge barred the Bush administration yesterday from launching a planned
crackdown on U.S. companies that employ illegal immigrants, warning of its
potentially "staggering" impact on law-abiding workers and companies.
In
a firm rebuke of the White House, U.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer of San
Francisco granted a preliminary injunction against the president's plan to
press employers to fire as many as 8.7 million workers with suspect Social
Security numbers, starting this fall.
President
Bush made the effort the centerpiece of a re-energized enforcement drive
against illegal immigration in August after the Senate rejected his proposal to
overhaul immigration laws. But the court ruling -- sought by major American
labor, business and farm organizations -- highlighted the chasm that the issue
has opened between the Republican Party and its traditional business allies.
The
case also called attention to the gulf between Washington rhetoric about the
need to curtail illegal immigration and the economic reality that many U.S.
employers rely on illegal labor, as well as to the government's inability for
nearly three decades to develop adequate tools for identifying undocumented
workers.
In
a 22-page ruling, Breyer said the plaintiffs -- an unusual coalition that
included the AFL-CIO, the American Civil Liberties Union and the U.S. Chamber
of Commerce -- had raised serious questions about the legality of the
administration's plan to mail Social Security "no-match" letters to
140,000 U.S. employers.
"There
can be no doubt that the effects of the rule's implementation will be
severe," Breyer wrote, resulting in "irreparable harm to innocent
workers and employers."
The
government letters are intended to warn employers for the first time that they
must resolve questions about their employees' identities or fire them within 90
days. If they do not, employers could face "stiff penalties,"
including fines and even criminal prosecution, for violating a federal law that
bars knowingly employing illegal workers, Homeland Security Secretary Michael
Chertoff said when he announced the plan Aug. 10.
The
plaintiffs convinced the judge that the Social Security Administration database
includes so many errors -- incorporated in the records of about 9.5 million
people in 2003 alone -- that its use in firings would unfairly discriminate
against tens of thousands of legal workers, including native-born and
naturalized U.S. citizens, and cause major workforce disruptions that would burden
companies.
"The
government's proposal to disseminate no-match letters affecting more than eight
million workers will, under the mandated time line, result in the termination
of employment to lawfully employed workers," the judge wrote.
"Moreover the threat of criminal prosecution . . . reflects a major change
in DHS policy."
Breyer
also said that the government may have ignored a 1980 law, the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, that requires it to weigh the cost of imposing new regulations
that would significantly burden small-business owners. Randel K. Johnson, a
vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, said the ruling shows that "the
government cannot do anything it wants simply in the name of enforcement.
They've got to be careful about building their record and complying with the
law."
In
a statement, AFL-CIO President John J. Sweeney said: "This is a
significant step towards overturning this unlawful rule, which would give
employers an even stronger way to keep workers from freely forming unions. . .
. More than 70% of SSA discrepancies refer to U.S. citizens."
Chertoff
expressed disappointment with the decision and said the administration will
continue to aggressively enforce immigration laws while considering an appeal,
which plaintiffs' attorneys said could take at least nine months.
"Today's
ruling is yet another reminder of why we need Congress to enact comprehensive
immigration reform," Chertoff said. "The American people have been
loud and clear about their desire to see our nation's immigration laws
enforced."
Several
analysts said the Bush administration's plan appeared to be designed to push
business interests back into the debate by demonstrating that the failure of
legislative reform efforts would carry costs, and to reassure conservative lawmakers
who oppose illegal immigration that the White House is able and willing to
crack down on offenders.
Doris
Meissner, former commissioner of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization
Service and now a senior fellow at the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute
in Washington, said the ruling "shows how ineffective the current laws
are."
"It
reinforces the opinion that many of us hold that until you have a better legal
framework -- which requires new legislation -- we're stuck very much with the
status quo," Meissner said.
In
a statement, Rep. Brian P. Bilbray (R-Calif.), an opponent of
Bush's approach who won election to the House last year on the issue,
criticized the court. "What part of 'illegal' does Judge Breyer not
understand?" he said. "At a time when the federal government is
finally trying to enforce current immigration law, we cannot have activist
judges stand in the way of doing what is right."
The
scope of the problem is uncontested. A three-year government audit ending in
2001 found "widespread" misuse of Social Security numbers by illegal
immigrants, who often present fake or fraudulent documents to obtain jobs.
Overall, 7.2 million illegal immigrants account for at least 10 percent of
low-skilled U.S. workers and 5 percent of the total U.S. workforce, according
to a Pew Hispanic Center analysis of 2005 census data.
Illegal
immigrants make up even greater portions of workers in specific industries,
including 24 percent in farming, 17 percent in cleaning, 14 percent in
construction and 12 percent in food preparation. But the government's record in
developing tools to screen such workers is spotty, largely because of
successful efforts by employers, labor unions and civil rights groups to water
them down.
A
government program to verify the validity of new hires' Social Security
numbers, proposed in concept in 1981 and launched in 1996, remains voluntary
and covers only about 23,000 of 8 million U.S. employers. It is also hampered
by a high false-alarm rate and the limited ability to detect identity theft
involving stolen or fraudulent numbers. Between June 2004 and May 2006, it
erroneously rejected 11 percent of foreign-born U.S. citizens and 1.3 percent
of authorized foreign-born noncitizens, according to a report provided to
Congress.
In
protest, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) signed legislation in August that
bars companies in his state from participating in the program until it is 99
percent accurate.
The
federal government has mailed Social Security no-match letters to employers
since 1994, but such notices were generally silent about workers' immigration
status and employers did not face liability. In June 2006, the Department of
Homeland Security proposed using the letters to combat immigration fraud
involving existing employees, and it finalized its plans this summer. The
AFL-CIO and the ACLU filed suit to halt the Sept. 4 start of the mailings, and
they were joined by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the trade associations for
the agriculture, restaurant and construction industries.
On
Aug. 31, U.S. District Judge Maxine M. Chesney issued a temporary restraining
order pending an Oct. 1 hearing before Breyer, who was appointed by President
Bill Clinton in 1997 and is the brother of Supreme Court Justice Stephen G.
Breyer.

Big Business Takes a Look at
Troubled Border … and wants them opened wider for hordes more illegals!
The
U.S. Chamber of Commerce, one of the nation’s largest business lobbies,
released a report last week detailing its recommended “Steps to a 21st
Century U.S.- Mexico Border.” (U.S. Chamber of Commerce
Press Release,
June 8, 2011) The report addresses border issues that most affect the
Chamber’s members and recommends action on topics such as trade, security,
travel and immigration. (See Steps to a 21st
Century U.S.-Mexico Border)
The Chamber asserts that the U.S. and Mexico trade more than $1 billion worth
of goods every day, and as such, building a strong and stable relationship with
Mexico is of paramount importance to U.S. business. (Id.)
The
Chamber of Commerce report makes clear that business industries in the U.S. are
affected by the escalating violence and turmoil that have come to characterize
our nation’s Southern border. Drug cartel activity has made “extreme
criminal behavior” a prominent threat to U.S. business trade with Mexico.
(Id.) The report states that significant sums of money are being
spent to secure employees and provide armored transportation. Companies
conducting business with Mexico must factor in the high costs of protecting
both their employees and their product, a cost which is being passed on to the
consumer.
Despite
these dangers, the Chamber’s report still promotes the controversial
cross-border trucking provisions of NAFTA. The report states that eighty
percent of U.S. trade products with Mexico are carried across the border by
truck. (Steps to a 21st
Century U.S.-Mexican Border, p. 5) The report, however, does not address the many
concerns which have delayed implementation of the program for well over a
decade, including concerns about drug-related violence. (See FAIR Legislative Update, March 7, 2011; FAIR Legislative Update, Jan. 10, 2011)
The
Chamber also promotes expanding the Merida Initiative. The Merida
Initiative is an agreement through which the U.S. has agreed to support the
governments in Mexico, Central America, Dominican Republic, and Haiti in their
respective battles against organized crime. (See U.S. Department of State) The purpose of providing funds and other resources
to these countries is to promote the national security interest of the U.S.;
prevent further violence from spilling over the border; and deter drug and
gang-related transnational criminal organizations from coming into our
country. (See Merida Initiative Fact Sheet)
Finally,
the report agrees that “illegal immigration is one of the most significant
problems facing our border today.” (Steps to a 21st
Century U.S.-Mexican Border, p. 20) The Chamber calls for immigration reform to
promote security in the U.S. and create economic growth, but argues that
increasing legal immigration will actually decrease illegal immigration and the
help ease the related security concerns hurting businesses.

Most Illegal
Immigrant Families Collect Welfare
April 05, 2011
Surprise,
surprise; Census Bureau data reveals that most U.S. families headed by illegal
immigrants use taxpayer-funded welfare programs on behalf of their
American-born anchor babies. Even before the recession, immigrant households
with children used welfare programs at consistently higher rates than natives,
according to the extensive census data collected and analyzed by a nonpartisan
Washington D.C. group dedicated to researching legal and illegal immigration in
the U.S. The results, published this month in a lengthy report,
are hardly surprising. Basically, the majority of households across the country
benefitting from publicly-funded welfare programs are headed by immigrants,
both legal and illegal. States where immigrant households with children have
the highest welfare use rates are Arizona (62%), Texas, California and New York
with 61% each and Pennsylvania(59%).The study focused on eight major welfare
programs that cost the government $517 billion the year they were examined.
They include Supplemental Security Income (SSI) for the disabled, Temporary
Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), a nutritional program known as Women,
Infants and Children (WIC), food stamps, free/reduced school lunch, public
housing and health insurance for the poor (Medicaid).Food assistance and
Medicaid are the programs most commonly used by illegal immigrants, mainly on
behalf of their American-born children who get automatic citizenship. On the
other hand, legal immigrant households take advantage of every available
welfare program, according to the study, which attributes it to low education
level and resulting low income. The highest rate of welfare recipients come
from the Dominican Republic (82 %), Mexico and Guatemala (75%) and Ecuador
(70%), according to the report, which says welfare use tends to be high for
both new arrivals and established residents.

A CASE STUDY
OF WHAT BEING MEXICO’S “FREE” BIRTHING CENTER COSTS:
Jose Herria emigrated
illegally from Mexico to Stockton, Calif., in 1997 to work as a fruit picker.
He brought with him his wife, Felipa, and three children, 19, 12 and 8 – all
illegals. When Felipa gave birth to her fourth child, daughter Flor, the family
had what is referred to as an "anchor baby" – an American citizen by
birth who provided the entire Silverio clan a ticket to remain in the U.S.
permanently. But Flor was born premature, spent three months in the neonatal
incubator and cost the San Joaquin Hospital more than $300,000. Meanwhile,
oldest daughter Lourdes married an illegal alien gave birth to a daughter, too.
Her name is Esmeralda. And Felipa had yet another child, Cristian. The two
Silverio anchor babies generate $1,000 per month in public welfare funding for
the family. Flor gets $600 a month for asthma. Healthy Cristian gets $400.
While the Silverios earned $18,000 last year picking fruit, they picked up
another $12,000 for their two "anchor babies." While President Bush
says the U.S. needs more "cheap labor" from south of the border to do
jobs Americans aren't willing to do, the case of the Silverios shows there are
indeed uncalculated costs involved in the importation of such labor – public
support and uninsured medical costs. In fact, the increasing number of illegal
aliens coming into the United States is forcing the closure of hospitals,
spreading previously vanquished diseases and threatening to destroy America's
prized health-care system, says a report in the spring issue of the Journal of American
Physicians and Surgeons. "The influx of illegal aliens has serious hidden
medical consequences," writes Madeleine Pelner Cosman, author of the
report. "We judge reality primarily by what we see. But what we do not see
can be more dangerous, more expensive, and more deadly than what is seen."
According to her study, 84 California hospitals are closing their doors as a
direct result of the rising number of illegal aliens and their non-reimbursed
tax on the system. "Anchor babies," the author writes, "born to
illegal aliens instantly qualify as Disability Income."citizens for

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, 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.

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.
ANCHOR BABIES BORN IN OUR BORDERS ARE STILL CITIZENS OF MEXICO!

These babies are destined to transform America. The nativist CNN reporter Lou
Dobbs estimates that there are over 200,000 "Anchor Babies" born
every year whereas George Putnam, a radio reporter, says the figure is closer
to 300,000. La Voz de Aztlan believes that the number is approximately 500,000 "Anchor

The video below depicts the many faces of the "Anchor

County’s Monthly Welfare Tab For Illegal
Aliens $52 Million
09/07/2010
As
the mainstream media focuses on a study that reveals a sharp decline in the
nation’s illegal immigrant population, monthly welfare payments to children of
undocumented aliens increased to $52 million in one U.S. county alone.
The
hoopla surrounding last week’s news that the annual flow of illegal immigrants
into the U.S. dropped by two-thirds in the past
decade overlooked an important matter; the cost of educating, incarcerating and
medically treating illegal aliens hasn’t decreased along with it, but rather
skyrocketed to the tune of tens of billions of dollars annually.
Those
figures don’t even include the extra millions that local municipalities dish out
on welfare payments to the U.S.-born children of illegal immigrants, commonly
known as anchor babies. In Los Angeles County alone that figure increased by
nearly $4 million in the last year, sticking taxpayers with a whopping $52 million tab to provide illegal
immigrants’ offspring with food stamps and other welfare benefits for just one
month.
That
means the nation’s most populous county, in the midst of a dire financial
crisis, will spend more than $600 million this year to provide families headed
by illegal immigrants with welfare benefits. In each of the past two years Los
Angeles County taxpayers have spent about half a billion dollars just to cover
the welfare and food-stamp costs of illegal immigrants. Additionally, the county spends $550 million on public safety and
nearly $500 million on healthcare for illegal aliens.
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 L.A. County’s Department of Social
Services. Nationwide, Americans pay around $22 billion annually to provide
illegal immigrants with welfare perks 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.
