Colorado's Week of the Migrant
Javier Gasbar, who owns Silverthorne cleaning company Perfect Service, is expanding. But there's a problem. "It's only immigrants who apply for these jobs," he tells KUNC radio, saying the government should be making it easier, not harder, for him to hire them. The issue of immigration was recently front and center at the Colorado Supreme Court, which ruled that authorities violated the privacy of undocumented immigrants by seizing their tax records as part of an identity-theft investigation. The 4-3 decision has unsurprisingly infuriated some, including former U.S. Representative Tom Tancredo, a Republican, who tells The Washington Times the court is "the most liberal" in Colorado history and he will work with other conservatives to oust four of the seven justices. Tancredo's threats ostensibly help to maintain fear in immigrant communities, something that could hinder the U.S. Census Bureau's effort to count every person in the nation next year. The bureau wants to make sure new immigrants "and other peer groups wary of government" are counted in the once-in-a-decade tally, notes The Denver Post. To help remove some of that fear, the bureau even co-sponsored an immigration rally. Meanwhile, vigils will be held across the state tonight, including in some high-country resort towns, in support of immigration reform and in recognition of the International Day of the Migrant. The Colorado Independent points out that it's "the first time Colorado ski country plans to get involved."

E-Verify--IS--the answer to illegal immigration because it WORKS! It--MUST--and should be permanent, with sufficient penalties for violations. Blogger's have demonstrated to me that if employers explain to old and new hires, that the US government is implementing audits of companies throughout America. That any time ICE agents might appear without any warning and run an audit on any business at any time. That their 1-9's will be submitted to ICE, including photocopies of documents that--YOU--gave to us at the beginning of employment. ICE seems to be the magic word that means detention and deportation for anybody working under assumed Social Security cards, ID and other ill-gotten documentation if caught. Once alerted to this implication, those in this country illegally will be absent from work the next day. E-VERIFY IS THE ANSWER TO THE DESPERATE JOBLESS AMERICAN WORKERS AND MUST BE MADE PERMANENT. AN E-VERIFY LAW IS WHAT WE NEED, NOT ANOTHER OBNOXIOUS AMNESTY, THAT WAS NEVER ENFORCED AS IN 1986. DON'T CONDEMN US LABOR AGAIN , ENFORCE THE 1986 LAW.
We all know the astronomical costs attributed to the illegal immigration invasion over many decades in education, health care and incarceration. So get on the phone and insist as a voter for your lawmaker to vote for
THE SAVE ACT (H.R. 3308) and be relentless.One main enforcement tools is E-Verify, that discloses and removes illegal workers from job locations. The capitol switchboard number is 202-224-3121. Also bombard the House-Senate policy makers with 28 cent postcards, to stop the open border organizations from engineering another Comprehensive Immigration reform or AMNESTY. GOOGLE and investigate the terrible consequences of illegal immigrants and families, demanding rights in the--SANCTUARY STATE OF CALIFORNIA. On the brink of bankruptcy, overcrowded schools where English is a second language, and Liberal-Marxist-Extremist politicians in Sacramento, spending the peoples money to subsidize the low incomes of millions illegal foreign nationals. EXPECT A FINANCIAL cataclysmic nightmare, if AMNESTY passes.
Bad as it is now millions more will enter America without permission causing even more chaos. Honest legal immigrants will be dumbfounded, when they learn illegal aliens will pay only $500 dollars to get legitimate status, While those people who went through the government inspection process and attorney filling fees for $2,500 dollars or more waiting for years to be accepted.
Tell them to amend the 1986 Immigration Reform Act and not another travesty that was a total disaster to taxpayers. Virginia Abernethy, Ph.D., former chief statistician for the Bureau of the Census said in September 2006 at a speech in Washington DC, that there has been a intentional undercount going on, so that the claimed figure over the 305-million population did not happen in 2005 but instead as early as-- 2001. Those who believe in America’s survival, without OVERPOPULATION as stated by the US Census bureau better read the facts, not the lies at NUMBERSUSA. Those who want details of corruption in WASHINGTON and state government go to JUDICIAL WATCH. For Overpopulation statistics, should go to CAPSWEB. Other sites of interest on Immigration enforcement is ALIPAC and AMERICAN PATROL
Anybody can copy and paste. We need to warn the general public?
