The bottom line is that no law we pass in Washington will be effective until it is enforced. So the SAVE Act increases the investigative abilities of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) by increasing agents, including an additional 140 Criminal Alien Program officers to pick up those illegal immigrants local law enforcement has apprehended. <BR/><BR/>If we subsidize something, we get more of it. This country subsidizes illegal immigration. Our immigration laws are not enforced. We give social benefits to illegal aliens. Local law enforcement is prevented from enforcing immigration laws. We give illegal aliens our jobs.<BR/><BR/>It’s time for Congress to step up to the plate and pass enforcement legislation without a pathway to citizenship. These two issues need not be linked.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323554779266663124.post-40713851232869980962007-11-27T16:19:00.000-06:002007-11-27T16:19:00.000-06:00My parents both immigrated to America LEGALLY many...My parents both immigrated to America LEGALLY many years ago. My husband just immigrated here from England. LEGALLY. It took us 1 year and a half to get him over here. He had medical tests out the wazooo and had to prove he was not going to be "a burden on society." <BR/>First off, i think ANY and ALL LEGAL immigrants should be outraged by the idea of amnesty or any other form of giving illegals rights. there is a reason we have an immigration process. #1 to keep disease out. #2 to keep track of those that enter our land. #3 to make sure ppl arent coming here for easy money. and MANY MANY more reasons.<BR/>i get so SICK of hearing ppl say illegals do the jobs americans want to do, because in all honesty-i bet you any american WOULD do the job if only those penny-pinchers would dig a little deeper into their pockets and pay educated and SKILLED workers what they are worth. <BR/>i think amnesty is a ridiculous idea... Giving ppl the right to benefits for doing something illegal? while everyone else is still standing in line doing things the proper way?

I came to the US legally and got my citizenship a few years later. I support legislation against illegal immigration.<BR/><BR/>The real racists are those who are not white and cannot stand a predominantly white america. They just want us to become the minority in this country. They are the advocate of uncontroled diversity. What white people have to understand is that more diversity means less of them and more of the others.<BR/><BR/>One thing is sure at least. If the white people were not here to give a job to people from other ethnic groups,especially illegal aliens coming from hispanic countries, these people probably would not be able to create a job for themselves. If they were, they would have done it in their own country.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323554779266663124.post-65953398211883640782007-11-27T09:05:00.000-06:002007-11-27T09:05:00.000-06:00After reading the guest commentator's comments tod...After reading the guest commentator's comments today, I am that much prouder of Congressman Heath Shuler's proposed SAVE at. Ada Volkmer used words such as inhuman, burdensome, detrimental because of burdens passed on to employers, business and law enforcement. Employers use an I-9 form to establish residency before employing people. Aren't we discriminating against legal aliens by saying, let's not do that to the Latino's. They want to work, raise huge families, driving expensive vehicles and remain anonymous. She is afraid this legialation will further polarize our country - not going to happen lady. They don't even take the time to learn our language, haven't you noticed job descriptions "bilingual preferred". We don't expect France or other countries to be fluent in English. This is a double standard she believes in. I have lived in this country for over 50 years and I, for one, am tired of double standards. Wake up Amy - help them to become citizens first if you expect American citizens to support any of your causes. And don't throw Thanksgiving in our faces - it did not start because of Latino's - do your research (of AMERICAN history).Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17880692743606922064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323554779266663124.post-89138428996399563882007-11-21T20:32:00.000-06:002007-11-21T20:32:00.000-06:0090 percent I am sure you have proof of that.

Democrat or Republican has no meaning anymore. The new age politicians are now globalist or nationalist, (re; Americanists or constitutionalists.) New York citizens should recall this dangerous Governor and expose him for what he represents which at the very least is the lack of intergrity and common sense. His agenda is more about voting rights for illegal immigrants than driving privilages. Trust me when I tell you that Americans applaud the county clerks and citizens of New York for taking action. They should throw this bum and anyone that supports him out on their ears.

They have invaded our country. I cannot understand why so many politician, like John Mccain, Mrs. Clinton, and others don't stop working on behalf of the illegals. I am for the "Save Act" and I hope it will never lead to passing a bill for a massive amnesty for illegals. I also hope that non of the candidates who be elected president of the US in 2008 would ever consider giving amnesty for illegals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
