CNSNews.com) - Immigration reform advocates, including Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee, are calling for an end to Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids at businesses that knowingly hire large numbers of illegal aliens.
Meanwhile, a report published Tuesday by a Washington think tank shows that raids, along with other enforcement measures, are doing exactly what they are supposed to do: reducing the number of foreigners illegally working and residing in the United States.
The report, authored by Dr. Stephen Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), says that the illegal-alien population in the United States has declined by more than one million persons in the past year.
CIS looked at a number of possible causes for the decline and concluded that increased enforcement measures have discouraged new illegal immigration and encouraged illegal aliens already here to ‘self-deport’.
“If the decline were sustained, it would reduce the illegal population by one-half in the next five years,” the report concludes.

Be careful who you vote for, this is the bunch of traitors who will become the majority of both the house and the senate. I the Obamanation known as Barcak is elected, we are going to have to fight very hard for at least another 4 years. As it is they are projecting it will take 5 years to reduce the amount of invaders by half.
