Tough Going for Anti-Immigration BillsPosted on Mar 6, 2011
Momentum has shifted against anti-immigrant bills like Arizona’s SB 1070 in the more than 20 states that have tried to institute copycat laws. Most efforts have failed to gain legislative traction, with bills dying in committee or simply being voted down. —JCL

Nowadays it is bad news for all those illegal nationals who entered this country, without permission. State laws are tightening up, as the feds have refused to tackle this battle ground Issue. A few States are going against the grain of most US citizens and legal residency. Those particular States as Utah and Washington State are soon going to be painfully aware, as the word gets around of poorly enforced laws. Supplementary States that are leaving the illegal alien floodgates open will also be paying dearly, which means fiscal suffering for their legal people. Better be ready for an onslaught of economic thunder as they head your way? It will not be pleasant as Americans will unseat the pro-illegal alien politicians, who crushed any chance of constructive restrictions. California—the well and truly tested Sanctuary state must now pick the pockets of taxpayers again, because illegal workers and families have flooded in and drained part of the 46 billion deficits the state is facing.

This also goes for billions of welfare dollars spent in the illegal alien high population state of Nevada. But now with a few more less restricting States, thousands will constantly leave the original policing State of Arizona and head outwards? As with Governor of New Mexico who has been less happy with the circumstances of handing out drivers licenses under the previous Governors watch of Gov. Bill Richardson and therefore many will also pack up and move on from there. Currently illegal migrants and immigrants have unlimited access to welfare entitlements, schooling and free health care and Include the obvious costs of jail and imprisonment. Birthright citizenship will be having its day in court. Even if it is not amended, the parents—HAVE NO RIGHTS TO STAY—and should be deported. The bill currently has 68 cosponsors and will amend current U.S. code to entail at least one parent to be a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident for a new born to obtain automatic citizenship.
You as a heavily laden taxpayer should incessantly harass your representative and demand their sponsorship for an amendment. Another controversial bill that will also save federal and State taxpayers is ending “Chain Migration.” There is a mounting list of 21 co-sponsors for Rep. Phil Gingrey’s Nuclear Family Priority Act (H.R.692) that would end chain migration. H.R.692 would purge all family-preference visa classes, except for spouses and minor children, and creating a renewable visa class for parents. Of course the radical Liberal other side under the pretense of polling people by the University of Texas and Texas Tribune has addressed the subject of 14th Amendment. Not only did these two parties misinform the public being asked, but also misrepresented the act of the birthright citizenship law. Anybody can engineer the questions asked to get a favorable answer in any poll.
Something that the Leftists progressives have intentionally forgot in their radical diatribe, that although The Fourteenth Amendment extends citizenship to all persons born in the U.S. and “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”; but it also grants Congress the power to enforce and define the necessities of the amendment. The US Constitution also grants us free speech. So if you are against supporting financially anymore the illegal immigration invasion? First you can join NumbersUSA and not only fax for free the Congress, but join millions of Americans who want to halt this continuous travesty by Liberal politicians. You can also become a member of the local TEA Party with a huge influence gaining momentum in Washington, to stop the Tax and Spend Liberal-Democrats.
Add your voice to the uncountable numbers of people who are fed up with illegal’s stealing their jobs, lowering wages. Here is also the Washington Switchboard number 202-224-312 to bombard your unconcerned Senate and House. Personally, I’m thoroughly frustrated and furious that we must educate the children of illegal immigrant, and pay for their health care; when we cannot even pay for our own families needs?
News of Today: America has the biggest deficit in US history and owned financially by China.

It’s not just Arizona. I don’t know where you’re getting your info but you’re wrong.
Report thisIn states far from the Mexico border — from liberal Massachusetts to moderate Iowa — Democrats and Republicans who won races are running on strict anti-illegal-immigration platforms, pledging to sign an array of tough enforcement measures into law come Feburary. Of the 37 gubernatorial races this year, candidates in more than 20 states have endorsed adopting a strict Arizona-style immigration law or passing legislation that makes it harder for illegal immigrants to live, work and access basic public benefits in their states, according to a POLITICO analysis. The prevalence of the issue means the Obama administration could find itself battling Arizona-style flare-ups in statehouses across the country, raising pressure on the White House and Congress to break the deadlock in Washington over comprehensive immigration reform. The Justice Department sued Arizona in hopes of discouraging other states from following its lead and won a ruling blocking provisions of the law that immigrant advocates found most objectionable. But that hasn’t stopped some gubernatorial candidates from trying to one-up each other on the issue. “If President Obama sues us too, we’re going to defend ourselves,” said Brian Robinson, communications director for Deal. “We’ve got to protect Georgia taxpayers if President Obama won’t.” The Pew Research Center found the immigrant population has at least doubled since 2005.
Polls show voters want the government to stop the flow of illegal immigrants. And with Congress unlikely to act anytime soon, gubernatorial candidates are arguing that, as chief executives, they will try to do the job that they say the federal government has neglected.

Of course such bills won’t go anywhere. Politicians are whores and don’t want to lose the Latino vote. This despite the fact that much of the deficit problems in the states has to do with illegal immigration .For example, illegal immigrants contribute only about $5billion dollars in tax revenue and yet cost nearly $ 25 billion in social programs.

Why?
The practice in all other countries of the world, some rather harshly, is not good enough for the >current< U.S.Gov leadership? The U.S. Justice Dept. attempts to order individual state authority to actively DISREGARD U.S. constitutional law already on the books?
I wonder if implementation of the law hinders the current sneaking into the U.S. of foreign mercenaries, similar to Operation Paper Clip, 1945-1951, by members of the KLAN who were identified as NAZIs? I call them members of the “Hitler Society,” since the word NAZI is being labled as a no-no, by certain EU groups.
Perhaps the Zionists did not join the NAZI party in the 1970s. Perhaps the membership of this society were Ashkenazim/Zionists all the time, who developed the NAZI party, murdered millions of genuine Jewish folk, among others, turned the world inside out, from which it has not recovered ?

Shouldnt the title read “ANTI ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION BILLS”? This country does not have a problem with legal immigration. By not seperating legal from illegal immigration you are taking away all the time and effort that immigrants put forth to enter our country legally. They respected our laws and our immigration process so dont disrespect them by not seperating them from those who have no respect for our laws and immigration process.

Well, if the anti-immigration bill movements are failing, we are just going to have to fall back on Plan ‘B’. Let’s bring all our troops back from Iraq and Afghanistan, station them on the US/Mexican border, facing South, propagandize them that we are going to ‘Nation-Build’ Mexico, while simultaneously preventing Al Qaeda, the Taliban, Muslims, and other druggies and criminals from invading and raping US women and children, and that we must keep all Mexicans at ‘Home’, in Mexico, for ‘Nation-Building’ to succeed, so they should shoot any thing that moves heading North.
If we raise our troops’ pay to the level of other ‘public servants’, say Congressfolk, for example, plus adding the benefit of letting them keep all the dope they capture, this effort should succeed, and settle the illegal alien problem, once and for all.
Plus having the added benefit of earning the undying gratitude of the peace-loving peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan.
