THE BIDEN INVASION - Health inspections for foreign nationals entering our country illegally have gone out the window. That's enabled the importation of many diseases which affect livestock and other agricultural output, and already these things are happening. Legal immigrants and even returning U.S. citizens must pass these inspections to protect the U.S. food supply. But under Joe Biden's catch-and-release, illegals are exempt from such cumbersome requirements. MONICA SHOWALTER

U.S. Pays To Upgrade Mexican Trucks
April 11, 2011
In the latest effort to accommodate its cherished trade partner in the south, theU.S. government is paying to upgrade outdated Mexican trucks that hemorrhage illegal amounts of exhaust on their trips north to deliver merchandise.The Mexican trucks enter the U.S. under a 17-year-old international trade pact known as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and they’ve created an air pollution crisis. The air quality in border towns has been especially impacted by the exorbitant levels of exhaust released by the Mexican trucks, which also fail to meet American safety standards.Since the Mexican truckers have no intention of fixing the problem, Uncle Sam has stepped in to save the environment. U.S. taxpayers have picked up the cost to replace old mufflers on dozens of trucks and many more are scheduled to be upgraded by the middle of this year. The unbelievable story was reported this week by an Arizona newspaper that says replacing the old mufflers with new catalytic converters will reduce harmful diesel emissions by up to 30%.The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality is running the operation but the money is actually coming from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the same bloated federal agency that’s dedicated millions to “environmental justice” programs that help minorities get green. Under that brilliant EPA project, leftwing groups get federal dollars to teach black, Latino and indigenous folks how to recycle, reduce carbon emissions and participate in “green jobs” training.In this genius case, EPA grants have upgraded 55 Mexican trucks and many more will be enhanced this year. Each truck costs U.S. taxpayers about $1,600. The feds justify the expenditure by claiming that it will improve air quality on both sides of the border, especially in towns that are helpless due to lack of resources. The director of Arizona’s Department of Environmental Quality says it’s all about establishing a “relationship on environmental issues.”U.S. truck drivers are required to have the type of converters that Mexicans are getting from the American government, though they must pay for theirs. For years, the idea of Mexican trucks entering the U.S. under NAFTA has been a contentious issue because they follow the notoriously dismal safety standards of a third-world country.In fact, a few years ago the Department of Transportation’s Inspector General determined that Mexican trucks that regularly travel throughout American highways are rarely checked for safety by U.S. authorities despite a provision requiring it. Rules requiring that every Mexican truck undergo a thorough safety compliance check and that every driver has a valid license and is proficient in English have been virtually ignored, according to the IG’s findings.HILDA SOLIS - OBAMA'S LA RAZA SUPREMACIST SEC. of ILLEGAL LABOR
OBAMA HAS FILLED HIS
ADMINSTRATION WITH PRIMARILY LA RAZA PARTY MEMBERS.
Here’s his Sec. Labor, HILDA
SOLIS:
While in Congress, she
opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien
benefits (including driver's licenses and in-state tuition discounts), embraced
sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security
officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass
amnesty. Solis was steeped in the pro-illegal alien worker organizing movement
in Southern California and was buoyed by amnesty-supporting Big Labor groups
led by the Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol
Hill firestorm over her new taxpayer-funded advertising and outreach campaign
to illegal aliens regarding fair wages:
Michelle Malkin
The U.S. Department of Illegal Alien Labor
President
Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to represent American workers.
What you need to know is that this longtime open-borders sympathizer has always
had a rather radical definition of "American." At a Latino voter
registration project conference in Los Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted
to thunderous applause, "We are all Americans, whether you are legalized or
not."
That's
right. The woman in charge of enforcing our employment laws doesn't give a hoot
about our immigration laws -- or about the fundamental distinction between
those who followed the rules in pursuit of the American dream and those who
didn't.
While in Congress, she
opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien
benefits (including driver's licenses and in-state tuition discounts), embraced
sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security officials
to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass amnesty. Solis
was steeped in the pro-illegal alien worker organizing movement in Southern
California and was buoyed by amnesty-supporting Big Labor groups led by the
Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol Hill
firestorm over her new taxpayer-funded advertising and outreach campaign to
illegal aliens regarding fair wages:
"I'm
here to tell you that your president, your secretary of labor and this
department will not allow anyone to be denied his or her rightful pay --
especially when so many in our nation are working long, hard and often
dangerous hours," Solis says in the video pitch. "We can help, and we
will help. If you work in this country, you are protected by our laws. And you
can count on the U.S. Department of Labor to see to it that those protections
work for you."
To be
sure, no one should be scammed out of "fair wages." Employers that
hire and exploit illegal immigrant workers deserve full sanctions and
punishment. But it's the timing, tone-deafness and underlying blanket amnesty
agenda of Solis' illegal alien outreach that has so many American workers and
their representatives on Capitol Hill rightly upset.
Unfortunately,
the federal government is not alone in lavishing attention and resources on
workers who shouldn't be here in the first place. As of 2008, California,
Florida, Nevada, New York, Texas and Utah all expressly included illegal aliens
in their state workers' compensation plans -- and more than a dozen other
states implicitly cover them.
Solis'
public service announcement comes on the heels of little-noticed but far more
troubling comments encouraging illegal alien workers in the Gulf Coast. Earlier
this month, in the aftermath of the BP oil spill, according to Spanish language
publication El Diario La Prensa, Solis signaled that her department was going
out of its way to shield illegal immigrant laborers involved in cleanup
efforts. "My purpose is to assist the workers with respect to safety and
protection," she said. "We're protecting all workers regardless of
migration status because that's the federal law." She told reporters that
her department was in talks with local Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE) officials who had visited coastal worksites to try to verify that workers
were legal.
No word
yet on whether she gave ICE her "we are all Americans, whether you are
legalized or not" lecture. But it's a safe bet.

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
(get Malkin’s book on
OBAMA NOTED below!)
Only in America could critics of a group called "The
Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity
chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in
redefining all opposition as "hate."
Both Barack Obama and John McCain will speak this week in
San Diego at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, the
Latino organization whose name is Spanish for, yes, "The Race." Can
you imagine Obama and McCain paying homage to a group of white people who
called themselves that? No matter. The presidential candidates and the media
have legitimized "The Race" as a mainstream ethnic lobbying group and
marginalized its critics as intolerant bigots. The unvarnished truth is that
the group is a radical ethnic nationalist outfit that abuses your tax dollars
and milks PC politics to undermine our sovereignty.
*
Here are 15 things you should know about "The
Race":
*
15. "The Race" supports driver's licenses for
illegal aliens.
*
14."The Race" demands in-state tuition discounts
for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding U.S. citizens
and law-abiding legal immigrants.
*
13. "The Race" vehemently opposes cooperative
immigration enforcement efforts between local, state and federal authorities.
*
12. "The Race" opposes a secure fence on the
southern border.
*
11. "The Race" joined the American-Arab
Anti-Discrimination Committee in a failed lawsuit attempt to prevent the feds
from entering immigration information into a key national crime database -- and
to prevent local police officers from accessing the data.
*
10. "The Race" opposed the state of Oklahoma's
tough immigration-enforcement-first laws, which cut off welfare to illegal
aliens, put teeth in employer sanctions and strengthened local-federal
cooperation and information sharing.
*
9. "The Race" joined other open-borders,
anti-assimilationists and sued to prevent Proposition 227, California's
bilingual education reform ballot initiative, from becoming law.
*
8. "The Race" bitterly protested common-sense
voter ID provisions as an "absolute disgrace."
*
7. "The Race" has consistently opposed post-9/11
national security measures at every turn.
*
6. Former "Race" president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary
Clinton's Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: "U.S. English is to
Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks." He was referring to U.S.
English, the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group dedicated to
preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States.
"The Race" also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and advised
the Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while avoiding
the terms "illegal" and "amnesty."
*
5. "The Race" gives mainstream cover to a
poisonous subset of ideological satellites, led by Movimiento Estudiantil
Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA). The late GOP
Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized the organization as "a radical
racist group … one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has
permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a
racist nation out of the American West."
*
4. "The Race" is currently leading a smear
campaign against staunch immigration enforcement leaders and has called for TV
and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the
airwaves -- in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut up
their foes. The New York Times reported that current "Race" president
Janet Murguia believes "hate speech" should "not be tolerated,
even if such censorship were a violation of First Amendment rights."
*
3. "The Race" sponsors militant ethnic nationalist
charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8 million in
federal education grants). The schools include Aztlan Academy in Tucson, Ariz.,
the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Ariz., Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School
in St. Paul, Minn., and La Academia Semillas del Pueblo in Los Angeles, whose
principal inveighed: "We don't want to drink from a White water fountain,
we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain
in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain … ultimately the White
way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually
lead to our own destruction."
*
2. "The Race" has perfected the art of the PC
shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home loan
standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal "mortgage
counseling" grants, seeking special multimillion-dollar earmarks and
partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.
*
1. "The Race" thrives on ethnic supremacy -- and
the elite sheeple's unwillingness to call it what it is. As historian Victor
Davis Hanson observes: "[The] organization's very nomenclature 'The
National Council of La Raza' is hate speech to the core. Despite all the
contortions of the group, Raza (as its Latin cognate suggests) reflects the
meaning of 'race' in Spanish, not 'the people' -- and that's precisely why we
don't hear of something like 'The National Council of the People,' which would
not confer the buzz notion of ethnic, racial and tribal chauvinism."
*
The fringe is the center. The center is the fringe. Viva La
Raza.

Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats,
Crooks, and Cronies
by Michelle Malkin
Editorial Reviews
In her shocking new book, Malkin digs deep into the records
of President Obama's staff, revealing corrupt dealings, questionable pasts, and
abuses of power throughout his administration.
From the Inside Flap
The era of hope and change is dead....and it only took six
months in office to kill it.
Never has an administration taken office with more inflated
expectations of turning Washington around. Never have a media-anointed American
Idol and his entourage fallen so fast and hard. In her latest investigative
tour de force, New York Times bestselling author Michelle Malkin delivers a
powerful, damning, and comprehensive indictment of the culture of corruption
that surrounds Team Obama's brazen tax evaders, Wall Street cronies, petty
crooks, slum lords, and business-as-usual influence peddlers. In Culture of
Corruption, Malkin reveals:
* Why nepotism beneficiaries First Lady Michelle Obama and
Vice President Joe Biden are Team Obama's biggest liberal hypocrites--bashing
the corporate world and influence-peddling industries from which they and their
relatives have benefited mightily
* What secrets the ethics-deficient members of Obama's
cabinet--including Hillary Clinton--are trying to hide
* Why the Obama White House has more power-hungry,
unaccountable "czars" than any other administration
* How Team Obama's first one hundred days of appointments
became a litany of embarrassments as would-be appointee after would-be
appointee was exposed as a tax cheat or had to withdraw for other reasons
* How Obama's old ACORN and union cronies have squandered
millions of taxpayer dollars and dues money to enrich themselves and expand
their power
* How Obama's Wall Street money men and corporate lobbyists
are ruining the economy and helping their friends In Culture of Corruption,
Michelle Malkin lays bare the Obama administration's seamy underside that the
liberal media would rather keep hidden.

The passage of the DREAM Act in the House on Wednesday [Dec 8, 2010] makes me think how quickly we forget to be thankful after Thanksgiving. Instead of being thankful for the education and other opportunities, they have already received, potential beneficiaries of the DREAM Act amnesty are asking for more. More education, more jobs, more benefits, and everything else that comes with amnesty and American citizenship.
These kids illegally received the benefits of American citizens. While the mantra of DREAM Act proponents is that their illegal presence is through no fault of their own and they didn’t have a choice in coming the United States, I cannot help but ask why the parents aren’t being held responsible. The parents had a choice and they chose to break the law, putting their children in this compromising position. The U.S. government should not take on the responsibility of other people’ s bad decisions.
The unfortunate fact of the matter is that parents make bad decisions for their children all the time. In the cases of illegal alien minors (up to age 29 in the revised DREAM Act), the parents took a risk and their children benefited through education and jobs, but the consequences of their actions catch up to them. Their misdeeds are revealed and their kids have to deal with the consequences just as children of American citizens deal with the consequences of their parents’ bad decisions that affect them adversely. Yet, no accountability is affixed on the parents who broke the law to bring their children here.
Too many people fail to realize that “ the land of the free” does not mean free from burden, responsibility, or consequences. While many of the human-interest stories regarding the DREAM Act are compelling tales of personal struggle, law enforcement should not be based on convenience or individual circumstance. Period. When it is, everyone expects to be the exception and the rule of law crumbles into meaninglessness.
Another favorite refrain of the so-called DREAMers is that they are wholly unfamiliar with their home countries. Personally, this one doesn’ t resonate with me. I have lived in four different countries in the past four years. I’ ve moved to each one not knowing anyone there or the language. I learned a new language. I made friends. I made a life for myself. Many people all over the world do this and are better for it. In most cases, there is no reason these kids would not be able to do the same.
There are so many problems with the DREAM Act. But the bottom line is that no matter how you cut it, amnesty begets amnesty. How many more parents will risk bringing their children here illegally if we give amnesty to the ones here now? No one can know the exact number, but we know that it will be too many.

Romney’s
Hard Line
Mitt Romney, who
used to try to sound like a moderate on immigration, has dropped the pretense. On Wednesday, he proudly accepted the
endorsement of the
anti-immigrant activist Kris Kobach, architect of the nation’s most radical
immigration crackdowns, including the unconstitutional show-your-papers laws in
Arizona and Alabama.
Mr. Romney has
flipped and flopped all over on immigration, but in allying himself with Mr.
Kobach he has lurched toward the extremist right. “Kris has been a true leader on securing our borders and stopping the
flow of illegal immigration into this country,” Mr. Romney said.
Mr. Kobach, the secretary of state of Kansas, drafted that state’s
photo-ID law supposedly to stem fraudulent voting but with the real purpose of
suppressing Democratic votes. He is nationally known for drafting statutes,
many passed by states and local governments, that usurp federal control of
immigration enforcement and aim to make life intolerable for immigrants. He is
with the legal arm of the Federation for American
Immigration Reform, a group that wants to reduce legal immigration.
His new ally has
shifted around between moderation (Mr. Romney once spoke favorably of Senator
Edward Kennedy’s bill to legalize millions of the undocumented), double talk
and evasion (he supported a 2,000-mile border fence but also seemed to be for
some path to citizenship), and hypocrisy (illegal immigrants used to tend his
lawn).
In this campaign, Mr. Romney has shed all good sense. He recently
said he would even veto the Dream Act, which could give legal status to
blameless young immigrants who go to college or serve in the military.
On the day of the
Kobach endorsement, the
Romney campaign released a TV ad in Florida. Mr. Romney, who has opposed
bilingual education in favor of English, “the
language of America,” shows he is willing, as always, to say what it takes
to scrape up votes. “Muchas gracias,” he tells voters at the end of the ad,
which is in Spanish.

Another favorite refrain of the so-called DREAMers is that they are wholly unfamiliar with their home countries. Personally, this one doesn’ t resonate with me. I have lived in four different countries in the past four years. I’ ve moved to each one not knowing anyone there or the language. I learned a new language. I made friends. I made a life for myself. Many people all over the world do this and are better for it. In most cases, there is no reason these kids would not be able to do the same.
There are so many problems with the DREAM Act. But the bottom line is that no matter how you cut it, amnesty begets amnesty. How many more parents will risk bringing their children here illegally if we give amnesty to the ones here now? No one can know the exact number, but we know that it will be too many.

Mexicans Say
Amnesty Will Boost Illegal Immigration
10/14/2009
If
President Obama keeps his promise of giving the nation’s 12
million illegal aliens amnesty it will encourage more Mexicans to enter the
United States, according to residents of the struggling Latin American country
who are undoubtedly rooting for the commander-in-chief’s plan.
The
majority of illegal immigrants in the U.S. are from Mexico therefore the
president’s reprieve project will greatly affect that nation. Two-thirds of
Mexicans say they know someone living in the United States and around one-third
have an immediate member of their household or close relative living in the
U.S.
A
majority of those residing south of the border say legalizing their
undocumented countrymen will inspire more Mexicans to head north, according to
a recent survey conducted by an internationally known polling and market research company. A vast majority of Mexicans
with a relative in the United States said a legalization program would make
people they know more likely to go to America illegally.
The
results of the survey were made public this week by a research organization dedicated to studying the
economic, social, fiscal and demographic impacts of immigration in the U.S. It
reveals that nearly one-third of Mexican residents (nearly 40 million people)
would like to live in the U.S. and if there was an amnesty a large number would
come illegally with the hope of qualifying for a future exoneration.
An
amnesty, therefore, would stimulate more illegal immigration which is the last
thing this country needs. Furthermore, rewarding those who have violated our
nation’s laws with coveted U.S. residency and possibly citizenship demeans the
system, especially for those who follow the appropriate steps to come
lawfully.
It’s bad enough that U.S.
taxpayers annually dish out billions of dollars to educate, medically treat and
incarcerate illegal aliens who are, in many cases, depleting local governments.
Los Angeles County alone spends more than $1 billion a year,
including $48 million a month in welfare costs, to provide services for illegal
aliens. The crisis is hardly limited to border states, which have traditionally
been the most impacted. Georgia’s skyrocketing illegal population costs
taxpayers nearly $2 billion
a year.

ILLEGAL ALIEN POPULATION MAY
BE AS HIGH AS 38 MILLION
Study: Illegal alien population may be as high as 38
million A new report finds the Homeland Security Department "grossly
underestimates" the number of illegal aliens living in the U.S. Homeland
Security's Office of Immigration Studies released a report August 31 that
estimates the number of illegal aliens residing in the U.S. is between 8 and 12
million. But the group Californians for Population Stabilization, or CAPS, has
unveiled a report estimating the illegal population is actually between 20 and
38 million. Four experts, all of whom contributed to the study prepared by
CAPS, discussed their findings at a news conference at the National Press Club
in Washington Wednesday. James Walsh, a former associate general counsel of the
Immigration and Naturalization Service, said he is "appalled" that
the Bush administration, lawyers on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and every
Democratic presidential candidate, with the exception of Joe Biden, have no
problem with sanctuary cities for illegal aliens. "Ladies and gentlemen,
the sanctuary cities and the people that support them are violating the laws of
the United States of America. They're violating 8 USC section 1324 and 1325,
which is a felony -- [it's] a felony to aid, support, transport, shield, harbor
illegal aliens," Walsh stated. Walsh said his analysis indicating there
are 38 million illegal aliens in the U.S. was calculated using the conservative
estimate of three illegal immigrants entering the U.S. for each one
apprehended. According to Walsh, "In the United States, immigration is in
a state of anarchy -- not chaos, but anarchy."

THE NEW CASE AGAINST IMMIGRATION: BOTH LEGAL and ILLEGAL
By
"The New Case Against Immigration"
cuts through distortions and P.C. positions on the topic with convincing and
shocking data.
The 12 million illegal Mexican immigrants, along with the 17 million Americans of Mexican origin and another 16 million Cubans and other Hispanics total more than those of the next ten most common immigrant nations. Hispanics total about 50% of our total immigrants, posing major implications for assimilation. This is further acerbated by cheaper calls, easier access to Mexico, support from American businesses, and considerable legal support from the Mexican government and elites within the U.S.
Massive Mexican immigration into the U.S. is a relatively new problem - in 1970 less than 800,000 Mexicans were in the U.S. Once in the U.S., Mexican women's fertility rises from 2.4 (in Mexico) to 3.5 in the U.S. - considerably greater than native-born American women. (2002 data)
Mexican immigrants have the lowest citizenship rate - 19%, vs. 42% for Canadians, 54% for Chinese. They are also the least-educated major immigration group - 62% without a high-school education, while their children and grandchildren have a dropout rate of 25%. About 43% of illegal Mexican households use at least one major welfare program, and 50% are eligible for EITC. Even third generation Mexican-Americans use welfare at a level 3X that of American natives.
Over half of Mexicans believe the American S.W. belongs to them. Their consulates in the U.S. lobby for acceptance of matricula cards (opposed by the FBI as inadequate) for ID, in-state tuition, drivers licenses, sanctuary city status, etc.
Studies have found Mexican immigrants somewhat less likely to be criminals than native-born Americans, but their children are much more likely to be. Second-generation males aged 18-39 from El Salvador and Guatemala are incarcerated nearly 6X as often as their parents, those from Mexico 8X, and Vietnamese 12X.
Mass immigration overwhelms our capacity to screen out enemies or locate and remove them. A sampling found a high volume of fraud (40-80%) in H-1B, P-3 (artists and entertainers), L-1 (intra-company transfers) applications. Meanwhile, U.S. agencies held competitions in 2006 for the fastest processing times - approvals are the easiest.
Studies find illegal immigrants pulling down wages, especially at the bottom - about 40% in California between 1969-1997, and undermine the incentives to automate production. (Japan has decided to automate rather than import foreign workers.)
The U.S. spent about $4.5 billion subsidizing the education of foreign college students in 2005-06. Immigrants created about 86% of the growth in uninsured in 1998-2003; 47% of immigrant families were either uninsured or on Medicaid. The number of E.D.s in the U.S. fell 9% from 1993-2003, while visits increased 26%.
A 2004 Heritage Fund study found the average lifetime cost of low-skilled immigrant households was about $1.2 million to taxpayers - about the net benefit to taxpayers of a college-educated family.
Bottom Line: "The New Case Against Immigration" demands a stronger stand against both legal and illegal immigration. Its recommended direction is to continue the effort to prevent their taking American jobs, getting drivers licenses and benefits.

On The Immorality of Illegal Immigration:
A Priest Poses an Alternative Christian View
By C.S. Patrick J. Bascio
Editorial Reviews
Father Bascio presents a strikingly different perspective
on illegal immigration from that of most Christian clergymen. He turns his
spotlight on the harm of officially tolerated illegal immigration to America's
own struggling workers in the form of joblessness, shrinking wages and poorer
working conditions. African-American workers, already plagued by job
discrimination, bear the heaviest burden of the illegal invasion, which locks
them out of many workplaces or drives wages below acceptable levels. The
chronic non-enforcement of immigration laws is no accident: Congress has little
stomach for ending something so profitable for their most powerful donors and
the voters they can muster. The author fears that many committed Christians are
blinded to these abuses by their church leaders' preoccupation with charity
toward illegal aliens, while ignoring the plight of millions of low-wage
Americans. He deftly rebuts the self-serving myth of employers' and
politicians' that illegals "do jobs Americans won't do." Bascio also
sees the profit motive behind legal immigration policies that lure the third
world's best and brightest to America, stripping poorer nations of their
physicians, teachers and scientists. As a Catholic priest, the author admits
the unpleasantness of taking a position not shared by his Church's hierarchy,
which is driven by the prospect of rising membership. Bascio sees unchecked
illegal immigration as having grave consequences for overall U.S. tranquility:
disdain for the rule of law, street gangs, document fraud and identity theft,
staggering welfare and education costs and creeping "Balkanization"
that threatens the national principle of E Pluribus Unum. Father Bascio's book
is a resounding appeal to Christians to re-examine their churches' conventional
view of illegal immigration and consider the hardship it brings for fellow
Americans and its dangers for the nation as a whole.

TODAY, even with staggering unemployment, OBAMA, and
his LA RAZA DEMS, Boxer, Feinstein, Pelosi, Reid are cooking up yet another
ploy for amnesty!
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.”

OBAMA’S ASSAULT ON THE AMERICAN WORKER:
KEEPING WAGES DEPRESSED WITH HORDES OF ILLEGALS,
KEEPS THEIR CORPORATE PAYMASTERS CONTENTED AND GENEROUS!
THERE IS A REASON WHY MOST OF THE FORTUNE 500 ARE
GENEROUS DONORS OF LA RAZA, THE MEX FASCIST PARTY FOR MEX SUPREMACY.
THERE IS A REASON WHY THE U.S. CHAMBER of COMMERCE,
front for big business’ looting, DEMAND OPEN BORDERS, NO E-VERIFY, NON
ENFORCEMENT OF LAWS PROHIBITING THE EMPLOYMENT OF ILLEGALS.

The Jobs O Hates
For all his talk of job creation, President Obama has targeted many occupations for extinction. Using unelected bureaucrats to implement a host of job-killing measures, his administration is generating piles of pink slips, says Ben Lieberman, a senior fellow in environmental policy with the Competitive Enterprise Institute.
Factories:
Several new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit requirements have shut down the construction of coal-fired power plants needed to provide manufacturers with affordable electricity.
Jeffrey Holmstead, a former top air-quality EPA official, noted that in 2009 the incoming Obama bureaucrats "withdrew permits that had already been issued," and that "dozens are being held up today because they have no way to meet a new standard that EPA has put out."
A barrage of new regulations, including measures intended to address global warming, will hit in January 2011.
Mines:
Joe Manchin, former West Virginia's governor and now its newest U.S. senator, boasts that, "over the past year and a half, we have been fighting Obama administration attempts to destroy the coal mining industry."
As governor, Manchin sued the EPA in an attempt to prevent the agency from blocking coal mines in his state.
Fishing:
Obama's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is imposing strict fishing limits, even where there is little or no evidence of an overfishing problem.
Its controversial catch-shares program is destroying jobs in such fishing communities as Gloucester and New Bedford in Massachusetts, both of which are challenging the program's legality in federal court.

FROM JUDICIAL WATCH
Labor Dept. Helps Illegal Alien Workers
04/06/2010
The Department of Labor has launched a special program to assist and protect illegal immigrant workers in the U.S., referred to as “vulnerable” and “underpaid” by the presidential cabinet member who heads the agency.
Hundreds of new field investigators have been deployed to reach out to Latino laborers in areas with large numbers of illegal alien employees. Their message, in Spanish, is “we can help” bring workplace protections to the nation’s most vulnerable and underpaid workers, including those who have no legal right to live in the United States.
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, a former California congresswoman with close ties to the influential La Raza movement, announced the “We Can Help” project with great fanfare a few days ago. A total of 1,000 investigators from her agency will focus on enforcing labor and wage laws in industries that typically hire lots of illegal aliens without reporting anyone to federal immigration authorities.
Solis told Latino workers that “your president, your secretary of labor and this department will not allow anyone to be denied his or her rightful pay, especially when so many in our nation are working long, hard and often dangerous hours.” She assured illegal immigrants that “if you work in this country, you are protected by our laws.”
The same day Solis publicly announced the Obama Administration’s new project, a Labor Department investigator visited a day laborer center in northern California to promote it. The federal employee actually chatted warmly with the illegal immigrants about how to find jobs without being exploited, according to a local newspaper report. “We’re the feds but the good ones,” he told the day laborers in Spanish. “We’re here to help workers.”
The agency has also launched a Spanish television advertising campaign to spread the word and created a web site. Workers in industries from construction to food service are urged to contact the Labor Department of wage and hour violations. An investigator may be deployed to the work site or the employer may be taken to court.
While in Congress, she opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien benefits (including driver's licenses and in–state tuition discounts), embraced sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass amnesty. Solis was steeped in the pro–illegal alien worker organizing movement in Southern California and was buoyed by amnesty–supporting Big Labor groups led by the Service Employees International Union. She has now caused a Capitol Hill firestorm over her new taxpayer–funded advertising and outreach campaign to illegal aliens regarding fair wages:

The U.S. Department of Illegal Alien Labor
President Obama's Labor Secretary Hilda Solis is supposed to represent American workers. What you need to know is that this longtime open–borders sympathizer has always had a rather radical definition of "American." At a Latino voter registration project conference in Los Angeles many years ago, Solis asserted to thunderous applause, "We are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not."
That's right. The woman in charge of enforcing our employment laws doesn't give a hoot about our immigration laws –– or about the fundamental distinction between those who followed the rules in pursuit of the American dream and those who didn't.
While in Congress, she opposed strengthening the border fence, supported expansion of illegal alien benefits (including driver's licenses and in–state tuition discounts), embraced sanctuary cities that refused to cooperate with federal homeland security officials to enforce immigration laws, and aggressively championed a mass amnesty.

"I'm here to tell you that your president, your secretary of labor and this department will not allow anyone to be denied his or her rightful pay –– especially when so many in our nation are working long, hard and often dangerous hours," Solis says in the video pitch. "We can help, and we will help. If you work in this country, you are protected by our laws. And you can count on the U.S. Department of Labor to see to it that those protections work for you."
To be sure, no one should be scammed out of "fair wages." Employers that hire and exploit illegal immigrant workers deserve full sanctions and punishment. But it's the timing, tone–deafness and underlying blanket amnesty agenda of Solis' illegal alien outreach that has so many American workers and their representatives on Capitol Hill rightly upset.
With double–digit unemployment and a growing nationwide revolt over Washington's border security failures, why has Solis chosen now to hire 250 new government field investigators to bolster her illegal alien workers' rights campaign? (Hint: Leftists unhappy with Obama's lack of progress on "comprehensive immigration reform" need appeasing. This is a quick bone to distract them.)
Unfortunately, the federal government is not alone in lavishing attention and resources on workers who shouldn't be here in the first place. As of 2008, California, Florida, Nevada, New York, Texas and Utah all expressly included illegal aliens in their state workers' compensation plans –– and more than a dozen other states implicitly cover them.
Solis' public service announcement comes on the heels of little–noticed but far more troubling comments encouraging illegal alien workers in the Gulf Coast. Earlier this month, in the aftermath of the BP oil spill, according to Spanish language publication El Diario La Prensa, Solis signaled that her department was going out of its way to shield illegal immigrant laborers involved in cleanup efforts. "My purpose is to assist the workers with respect to safety and protection," she said. "We're protecting all workers regardless of migration status because that's the federal law." She told reporters that her department was in talks with local Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials who had visited coastal worksites to try to verify that workers were legal.
No word yet on whether she gave ICE her "we are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not" lecture. But it's a safe bet.
