Sanders backs guest worker program for farms burlingtonfreepress.com The Burlington Free Press
There...that didn't take long.
This is the painful yet prescient logic of the Obama Administration's enforcement policy change. Punishing aliens by jailing and then deporting them is an ineffective strategy (as the numbers are too great) and if employers face little risk - new undocumented workers can always be found to replace those who have been deported.
Only when important businesses in Congressional districts start to suffer consequences do politicians begin to realize that there may be an economic cost (and thus a political cost) to our restrictionist immigration policy. The undocumented workforce is intregral to many industries like farming, manufacturing, construction, hospitality, elder care, and other services.
As immigration enforcement begins to take a bite out of business owners who vote and contribute to campaigns (rather than just the immigrants who lack the right to vote and very often cannot speak up for fear of deportation) the pressure to change our policy is going to increase. Immigration reform will happen because our economic future depends on it.
When reform does happen...Wiggin & Nourie's Immigration Practice Group will be ready to assist the Dairy Farmers and all the other industries who need to access guest workers and to legalize their current employees.

NO MASS EXPENSIVE DEPORTATION IS NEEDED? E-VERIFY IS VASTLY BECOMING THE IDENTIFICATION FEDERAL COMPUTER APPLICATION IN REMOVING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN THE WORKPLACE. UNABLE TO WORK--THEY WILL LEAVE.
ReplyDeleteIn this disastrous recession our politicians must be savoring being unemployed themselves, if they force America into another Amnesty. Even if there was no downturn in the economy, taxpayers should not be a deep reservoir of welfare cash for illegal aliens and their families, How can they even conceive an such an idea of AMNESTY when so many of the legal population is wondering how they are going to feed their family? Every last one of them must be hounded down and told, DO NOT SIGN ON FOR A 2009-10 AMNESTY?
THERE WILL BE NASTY REPERCUSSION IN THE VOTING BOOTH, STARTING WITH SENATOR HARRY REID OF NEVADA, EVEN SEN. JOHN McCAIN NEXT YEAR? MAJORITY SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI WILL BE CLOSE BEHIND FOR THE WRECKING BALL? Warn all politicians at 202-224-3121, or go to their offices in person. Read about corruption and sanctuary city policies so GOOGLE--NUMBERSUSA, JUDICIAL WATCH. ALIPAC, CAPSWEB, AMERICAN PATROL & THE DARK SIDE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
Tell them E-Verify must be made permanent, to start the "ATTRITION" enforcement procedure for every illegal worker in America? Identification of fraudulent documents is a difficult problem for any employer, but if there is some suspicion send the new hire to the local Social Security to resolve the issue. It's very unlikely that any illegal immigrant will even tread near the entrance of the SSA agency? Now what can you do for AMERICA? YOU CAN USE YOUR VOTE! VOTING--OUT SEN. HARRY REID WILL BE A GOOD START THAT WILL ALARM THEM ALL! We cannot afford overpopulation growth, or corrupt politicians pandering to illegal immigrant and open border proponents anymore?
