Summer 2012 Guide to the Immigration Issue
May 30, 2012 By FAIR Media Team Leave
a Comment
Ok, so maybe it’s not
exactly a cheap novel to enjoy under the beach umbrella on a sandy shore, but
it is a short – and hopefully helpful – primer of the hot issues and updated
stats for those following the immigration policy debate this summer.
Two issues presently
dominate the debate; state action soon culminating in a Supreme Court decision
on Arizona’s SB-1070 and the use (and abuse) of immigration policy by both
parties in an election year to influence special interest voters.
The Election
- The Obama Administration continues
extending backdoor amnesty to thousands of deportable aliens, while Congress sits on its hands,
despite the overt usurpation of Congressional authority.
- Former Governor Mitt Romney is
wavering on immigration enforcement policy he articulated throughout the primary.
Additionally, he has failed to address if and how he might reverse the
backdoor amnesty policies underway should he become President.
- In the battle for the Hispanic
vote, both parties consider more concessions for illegal and legal
immigrants. Republican
Senator Marco Rubio is drafting a GOP DREAM Act hoping to capture Romney’s
support while Democrats continue to push amnesty legislation.
The States
- The Supreme Court decision on
Arizona’s SB 1070 enforcement law is expected in late June. The battle for
immigration enforcement continues at the state level. Recent efforts to weaken Alabama’s
state law failed and other states continue to explore E-Verify and
enforcement legislation.
- The Obama administration is
aggressively shutting down state and local enforcement efforts, whether it’s by suing states over
new laws or defunding local enforcement programs like 287(g) or weakening
Secure Communities.
Congress
- Senator Marco Rubio wants GOP to
support amnesty and increase legal immigration. Rubio appears to have either
self-appointed himself the election year “immigration issue broker” or
been assigned the task by the GOP. He is shopping around a GOP version of
the DREAM Act but, thus far, has refused to disclose the details of the
plan.
- Republicans and Democrats push
visa reforms and additions to unnecessarily increase legal immigration. Rather than tackle the underlying
issues with our immigration system or acknowledge that the U.S. already
admits over 1 million legal permanent residents a year, leaders in both
parties advocate for more visas and looser requirements.
- Nationwide E-Verify bill is
stalled in the House Ways and Means Committee. Along with requiring E-Verify, the
bill could pre-empt state enforcement laws.
Number of Illegal
Aliens
- 12 million (FAIR, 2010)
- 11.2 million (Pew Hispanic Center,
2010)
- 10.8 million (DHS. FY 2010)
Number of Jobs
Presently Held by Illegal Aliens
- 7 million (2010)
National Unemployment
Rate
- 8.1% (Bureau of Labor Statistics,
April 2012)
- Over 22 million Americans are
unemployed, underemployed or have given up actively looking for work. (BLS,
April 2012)
Unskilled Immigrant
Admissions
- Nearly 1 million (Department of
Homeland Security, FY 2011)
Annual National Cost
of Illegal Immigration
- $113 billion
- The bulk of the costs – $84
billion – are absorbed by state and local governments
Pending Enforcement
Legislation
- Several attempts to close loophole
that allows illegal aliens to receive the Additional Child Tax Credit. The latest House version was
added to the House passed budget. Two bills have been introduced in the
Senate.
- The House adopted an amendment to
the FY 2013 spending bill for the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and
Science (CJS), that defunds the Obama Administration’s lawsuits against
several states that seek to strike down their immigration enforcement
laws.
- The House adopted another
amendment to the CJS appropriations bill that strips certain federal
funding from sanctuary cities.
Pending Amnesty
Legislation
- DREAM Act – Versions introduced in both
House and Senate (H.R. 1842, S. 952) in 2011. Introduced in every session
since 2001 and often lumped into other amnesty bills. Last failed in
Senate in December 2010.
- Comprehensive Immigration Reform (S. 1258) – mass amnesty,
introduced nearly every session. No vote on it yet during this session.
- Adjusted Residency for Military
Service (ARMS) Act (H.R.
3823) – Introduced by Rep. David Rivera (R-FL) in January. It is
essentially only the military component of the DREAM act. Forthcoming?:
GOP DREAM Act from Senator Marco Rubio.
States to Watch
- Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina
and Utah – the Supreme
Court decision in Arizona SB 1070 will affect active DOJ lawsuits against
these states.
- California – considering tax plan and guest
worker program for illegal aliens.
- Illinois, Massachusetts, New York – Governors of these states
refuse to cooperate with Secure Communities. DHS is set for full
compliance in 2013. Will these states hold out?
- Mississippi – the House passed an immigration
enforcement bill in March, will they take it up again next session?
- New Mexico – the battle over driver’s licenses
for illegal aliens continues. If they repeal, Washington will be the only
state that gives driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.
- Oregon – Governor supports allowing
illegal aliens to use Matricula Consular ID in place of driver’s license.
In-State Tuition for
Illegal Aliens
- Total of 13 states have passed
in-state tuition for illegal aliens
- Maryland passed in-state tuition
for illegal aliens in 2011, however activists led a successful petition
drive and the law will be put to referendum in November 2012.
- Wisconsin repealed in-state
tuition for illegal aliens in 2011.

Some
in Congress are once again trying to push piecemeal immigration reform through
the back door. Sen. Diane Feinstein of California attached a farm worker
program to the multibillion dollar Iraq war funding bill yesterday which would
grant temporary amnesty to 1.3 million farm workers and their families over the
next five years.

Friends
of ALIPAC,
Each day new reports come in from across the nation that our movement is surging and more incumbents, mostly Democrats, are about to fall on Election Day. Obama's approval ratings are falling to new lows as he makes highly inappropriate statements to Spanish language audiences asking illegal alien supporters to help him "punish our enemies."

In California, League
of United Latin American Citizens has adopted a resolution to declare
"California Del Norte" a sanctuary zone for immigrants. The
declaration urges the Mexican government to invoke its rights under the Treaty
of Guadalupe Hidalgo "to seek third‑nation neutral arbitration of disputes
concerning immigration laws and their enforcement." We’ll have the story.

"This country belongs to
Mexico" is said by the Mexican Militant. This is a common teaching
that the U.S. is really AZTLAN, belonging to Mexicans, which is taught to
Mexican kids in Arizona and California through a LA Raza educational program
funded by American Tax Payers via President Obama, when he gave LA RAZA
$800,000.00 in March of 2009!

New
Stealth Federal Funding Bill for La Raza

Which brings us
to an extraordinary matter of some urgency. Several weeks before the White
House and its Senate allies announced their big "breakthrough"
legislation (S.1348), radicals in the House quietly introduced legislation to
pump $5 million directly into La Raza next year — and $10 million per year for
"each fiscal year thereafter."

The National Council
of La Raza (NCLR) is not only one of the wealthiest and most politically
powerful militant organizations in the country, it is also notoriously
racist and subversive. The group's name, "La Raza," means
"The Race," by which they are referring to ethnic Mexicans, or more
broadly to "hispanics" or "latinos." And it is quite clear
from their decades of vitriolic rhetoric — both spoken and written — that the La
Raza activists are trying to engender not only race consciousness amongst
hispanic U.S. citizens and Mexican migrants, but also racial militancy and
animosity toward "Gringo America."

Resistance Widens to Obama Initiative on
Criminal Immigrants
·
·
·
BOSTON — Mayor Thomas Menino, who often invokes his
heritage as the grandson of an Italian immigrant, was one of the first local
leaders in the country to embrace a federal program intended to improve
community safety by deporting dangerous immigrant criminals.
·
But five years after Boston became a testing ground for the
fingerprinting program, known as Secure Communities, Mr. Menino is one of the
latest local officials to sour on it and seek to withdraw. He found that many
immigrants the program deported from Boston, though here illegally, had
committed no crimes. The mayor believed it was eroding hard-earned ties between
Boston’s police force and its melting-pot mix of ethnic neighborhoods.
·
Last month, Mr. Menino sent a letter to the program with a blunt
assessment. “Secure Communities is negatively impacting public safety,” he
wrote, asking how Boston could get out.
·
On Aug. 5, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which runs the program,
gave an equally blunt response. Its director, John Morton, announced he was
canceling all agreements that 40 states and cities had signed to start Secure
Communities. Their assent was not legally required, he said, and he planned to
move ahead anyway to extend the program nationwide by 2013.
·
So Boston’s mayor, together with a growing number of other state
and local officials, is stuck.
·
Mr. Menino’s disenchantment illustrates the widening resistance
from cities and states that is troubling one of President Obama’s most far-reaching
programs to toughen enforcement against illegal immigration.
·
Administration officials are pressing ahead, saying that
information-sharing laws passed after the Sept. 11 attacks mandate the program.
The clash will gain a higher profile this month, when a task force Mr. Morton
named to recommend fixes is to hold public hearings in a half-dozen cities.
·
In an interview, Mr. Menino was alternately worried and indignant
about the program.
·
“We need those community folks to tell us what is going on out
there,” said the mayor, a Democrat who has run Boston for 18 years. As a result
of Secure Communities, he said, word is out in Boston that patrol officers are
working with federal agents to deport immigrants for offenses as minor as
traffic violations.
·
“What’s happening is, we’re losing the trust of the immigrant
community in Boston,” he said.
·
Obama administration officials vigorously defend Secure
Communities, saying it is essential for identifying immigrant gang members and
other violent criminals arrested by the local police, so federal agents can
focus on deporting them. Officials say they are taking steps to avoid deporting
foreigners detained for immigration violations, which generally are civil, not
criminal, offenses.
·
In a July 25 letter defending his strategy, Mr. Obama said that
deportations of convicted criminals over all increased by 70 percent in 2010
over 2008, while the share of noncriminals among deportees was declining. “The
increase in the proportion of criminal removals demonstrates that this strategy
is having a real impact,” the president wrote.
·
Under Secure Communities, the fingerprints of anyone booked into
jail are checked against the F.B.I.’s criminal databases — long a routine
police practice — and forwarded to the Department of Homeland Security to be
run through its databases, which record immigration violations. If an
immigration check yields a match, the immigration agency decides whether to
detain the foreigner for deportation.
·
After several pilot projects like the one Boston started in 2006,
the agency formally inaugurated Secure Communities in Houston in October 2008.
It quickly expanded, with little fanfare or protest, to about 1,500 counties or
other jurisdictions, about half the 3,181 jurisdictions in the nation.
·
But this year three governors — including Deval Patrick of
Massachusetts, as well as Pat Quinn of Illinois and Andrew M. Cuomo of New
York, all Democrats — announced that they wanted to pull out, as did officials
in Los Angeles and San Francisco. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus and more
than 200 immigrant groups have asked Mr. Obama to suspend the program.
·
Mr. Morton has addressed some complaints. In June, he issued new
guidelines giving immigration agents broad discretion to halt deportations of
noncriminal illegal immigrants. He traveled to places of dissent, including
Boston, working to eliminate confusion — which he acknowledged the immigration
agency had created — over whether jurisdictions could opt out.
·
Mr. Morton set up the task force, which includes police chiefs,
immigration lawyers and representatives of immigration agent unions. Its
chairman, Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research
Forum, said the group quickly set aside Mr. Morton’s assignment to deliver
recommendations in 45 days. Its first hearing was this week in Dallas; others
scheduled so far will be in Los Angeles; Chicago; Arlington, Va.; and Boston.
·
In Boston, where about 200,000 immigrants make up one-quarter of
the population, Mr. Menino said he was originally attracted to Secure
Communities because immigrant leaders liked the sound of it. “A person with a
homicide or major crime, immigrants don’t want them in their community either,”
he said.
·
Problems started earlier this year when advocacy groups released
immigration data showing that more than half of 313 immigrants deported from Boston
under the program had no criminal convictions. Many had been detained in
traffic stops.
·
Boston’s police commissioner, Edward Davis, had been a Secure
Communities supporter, because his records showed that it had removed many
violent criminal immigrants from Boston jails. But he concluded from the new
figures that immigration officials had misled him.
·
They specifically told us they would not be removing people with
traffic offenses,” Mr. Davis said. “They said they wouldn’t and now they have.”
·
Mr. Davis said he was taken aback by the indifference of
immigration officials to his questions. “This is a throwback to the bad old
days of the federal agencies before 9/11, when we did not have cooperation,” he
said. “It is really disconcerting that they are not at all concerned about our
precarious situation with immigrant communities.”
·
At the end of the school year, Mr. Menino held a lunch for about
30 valedictorians graduating from Boston high schools. He discovered that six
of the city’s highest-ranking students were illegal immigrants. Then he began
to hear stories of immigrants snared by Secure Communities.
·
One was Leonardo Machado, 35, an illegal immigrant and a
construction worker from Brazil who was stopped by a traffic officer because a
rear brake light was out. He did not have a valid driver’s license. Immigration
agents went to traffic court and led him away in ankle and foot chains.
·
Mr. Machado agreed to leave for Brazil, along with his Brazilian
wife and 5-year-old-son, a Boston-born American citizen. “I am not fighting
against the laws,” Mr. Machado said as he prepared his departure. “But I am not
a criminal, and my wife and my little son are not criminals. They did not have
to humiliate us like that.”
·
Heloisa Galvao, executive director of the Brazilian Women’s Group
here, said: “People listen to these stories. Lately the people are scared of
the police because they think the police are involved in immigration.”
·
Mr. Menino said a July 7 meeting he held with immigrant leaders
had persuaded him to try to cancel the program. He did not hide his anger when
immigration officials said it would continue.
·
“People will start to say the police are gestapos,” the mayor
said. “My police aren’t gestapos. You can’t be a bureaucrat in Washington and
just say, ‘We don’t care.’ ”

California
must stem the flow of illegal immigrants
·
The
state should go after employers who hire them, curb taxpayer-funded benefits,
deploy the National Guard to help the feds at the border and penalize 'sanctuary'
cities.
·
Illegal immigration is another matter entirely. With the state budget in tatters, millions of residents out of work and a state prison system strained by massive overcrowding, California simply cannot continue to ignore the strain that illegal immigration puts on our budget and economy. Illegal aliens cost taxpayers in our state billions of dollars each year. As economist Philip J. Romero concluded in a 2007 study, "illegal immigrants impose a 'tax' on legal California residents in the tens of billions of dollars."

THE LA RAZA DEMS HAVE SABOTAGED E-VERIFY TO HELP
EASE MORE ILLEGALS INTO OUR JOBS. IN MEX-OCCUPIED CA, THE LA RAZA (ILLEGALS)
CONTROLLED STATE LEGISLATURE PASSED A LAW MAKING IT ILLEGAL FOR EMPLOYERS TO
USE E-VERIFY. OBAMA HAS SUED AZ TO STOP E-VERIFY…. HERE’S WHY:
·
“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 Monitor
