This Grid Compares Immigration Enforcement Under Current Law With H.R. 2885

An urgent post from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about the national E-Verify bill, HR 2885. This follows this post about a Congressman actually wanting to enforce immigration laws on the book. This follows this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants such as the 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso, where President Barack Obama recently bashed immigration enforcement!  For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can read the very interesting book shown HERE!

And Remember when contacting public officials to please be firm but respectful. Any over the top messages could result in law enforcement action against you. Just let these politicians know that you are aware of what they have done and that you intend to remove them from office in the 2012 elections.

Our Grid Compares Immigration Enforcement Under Current Law With H.R. 2885

In one glance at our easy, colorful enforcement comparison Grid, you can see how the climate for illegal aliens in your state would get really tough if Congress passes U.S. House Judiciary Chairman Lamar Smith's H.R. 2885 (the Legal Workforce Act).



Take a look at the Grid below and see the 30 ways that H.R. 2885 would ensure that only legal workers get payroll jobs.



After you look at the Grid, I think you will understand why I say that, in the history of the United States, there never has been a piece of legislation going through committee that would do so much to turn off the jobs magnet for illegal immigration and protect jobs for American workers.



We are preparing a Grid like this for every state and will soon post a prominent link on the Home page. For this blog, however, I am showing you the comparison of enforcement under H.R. 2885 (the right column) with the current laws for Illinois (the center column).



The color RED shows where there is little or no enforcement in a category. The color GREEN shows where the law provides for the enforcement. (A more detailed explanation of colors is at the bottom of the Grid.)



As the people of Illinois know, immigration enforcement may never occur in their state without federal intervention. The majority of you live in states like this where politicians show no signs of ever stopping illegal aliens from taking jobs, benefits or residence. Only a federal law like H.R. 2885 -- that is moving through the House Judiciary Committee right now -- provides any hope for these states.



If you have trouble viewing the Grid here -- or want to see it in enlarged form -- click here.



Everybody talks about putting Americans back to work but few do anything. The Judiciary Committee can start putting hundreds of thousands of unemployed Americans back to work this year for virtually no cost by passing H.R. 2885.



The Legal Workforce Act could be the the first jobs bill out of Congress this fall.



H.R. 2885 is legislation carefully crafted to get through the House and Senate and get the President's signature. It is not about grandstanding but about changing the law THIS FALL and starting to put millions of unemployed Americans back to work over the next three years.



The argument about what to do with 11 million illegal aliens can be done later. For now, though, let's make sure that none of them is taking a job from an American citizen or legal immigrant.
