"E-Verify Victory Today Follows A Year Of Your Constant Efforts"


By Roy Beck, Tuesday, September 8, 2009,

Time after time after time over the last year, NumbersUSA's members mobilized to advance E-Verify and close off millions more jobs to illegal aliens. And just as many times, you suffered defeat. It is oh so difficult to maintain perseverance amidst so many losses, but you did. And your perseverance led to a gigantic victory today as the Obama Administration made a huge leap in immigration enforcement.

Remember our narrow losses last winter in trying to persuade the Congress to require all economic stimulus jobs to go through E-Verify?

Well, our victory today essentially makes that happen.

Starting today, every contract over $100,000 that the federal government awards will be on paper that tells the contractor:

for every new hire in the entire corporation, run him/her through E-Verify to keep illegal aliens from getting jobs,
for every existing employee who works on the actual federal contract, run him/her through E-Verify, no matter how many years he/she has already been employed -- to force illegal aliens out of their jobs.
And every company that gets a subcontract from a federal contractor that is worth $3,000 or more will have to abide by the same E-Verify rules. read more....

They get around this, by the Prime Contract hiring another company to Subcontract. It will be business as usual.

Possible; although it is becoming much riskier for illegals to be here in the USA compared to 2 years ago

E-Verify is not all it's cracked up to be.

Campaign For Liberty — E-Verify and the Emerging Surveillance State **| by Tom DeWeese

I know it's a libertarian source and many people consider them to be kooks, but I don't. The US is becoming a surveillance state, just like the UK. And it scares me. Instead of enforcing our borders and putting an end to "birth right citizenship" we blame employers. Birth right citizenship should be reserved for those who have at least one parent who has sworn allegiance to the United States of America. I believe that's what is said in the constitution as well.

Illegals get so much support and sympathy from democrats, which is why they continue to come. There are many cities in the US, mostly in democrat states, that refuse to give up illegals. We have starving families here, which liberals are always complaining about, and yet we are supposed to take on the burden of feeding and caring for the people of another country.

I do agree, but I don't believe in the Libretarian philosophy that is Pro-Open Borders..

Also, the employers DO have a responsibility of ensuring that they are following the laws just as much as the Federal Government has the responsibility to enforce our laws..

Unethical employers is the main reason why many illegal aliens enter the U.S. (this and the abundence of social services)..
