10Question : Do illegal aliens have the right to “demand” Obama stop e-verify and other programs?
Is this not the intention of the crackdown on employers who hire illegal aliens?
Should obama worry about citizens being out of work or these illegal aliens?
Do you agree it is insulting for them to ‘demand’ anything?

Out-of-work Undocumented Migrants Seek End to Crackdown
Sept. 8, 2009
Ivan Mejia–EFE
Hundreds of undocumented workers who recently lost their jobs are asking the government to stop taking a “hard line” on immigration policy and to offer a solution to the desperate situations of many of them.
“We’re demanding that (President Barack) Obama stop the application of a hard line on existing immigration laws,” Nativo Lopez, the head of the Mexican American Political Association, told Efe.
Lopez said that more than 2,200 undocumented workers recently have been fired from several manufacturing firms in Los Angeles.
“The majority of the people don’t know it, but Obama has the executive discretion to put a stop to the verification of employment documents, E-Verify, and the sending of letters of Social Security discrepancies,” the activist said.
The E-Verify system compares the information on the Employment Eligibility Verification Form, or I-9, against government databases to confirm that a prospective employee has the legal right to work in the United States.
Unions, business groups and defenders of immigrants’ rights say that despite improvements, E-Verify is still prone to errors.
Among the companies that laid off workers is American Apparel, a clothing manufacturer that is pushing a campaign supporting immigration reform on T-shirts with the message in English “Legalize LA” and which this month will lay off 1,500 workers from whom the government is demanding proof of the validity of their documents.
Marina Andrade, American Apparel’s representative, told Efe that “the workers are like our family and it affects us greatly to think that they’re not going to have (money) to pay the rent or for food. Therefore, we’re asking President Obama to quickly approve immigration reform.”
“What the government is doing is as if it were cutting off our arms,” Esther Hernandez, 32, one of the workers dismissed by American Apparel, told Efe.
Olga Casta??eda, 39, said that the firings are a sign of “the oppression of the labor that the country needs by the government.”
“We’re asking the government if, for the moment, it’s not going to approve immigration reform to stop pressuring employers to throw out workers,” she said.
Alexander Auerbach, a member of the board of directors for frozen food packing firm Overhill Farms, in southern Los Angeles, told Efe that the Internal Revenue Service conducted an audit of payrolls for 2006 and found that out of 1,000 workers 260 had inconsistencies in their documents.
Because of that, last April the Social Security Administration sent letters to the employers informing them that some of the Social Security numbers of their workers were invalid.
“The government was telling us that these people are not here legally and, therefore, we, the company, like the workers, were going to face legal action,” Auerbach said.

They’re illegal, therefore they are lawbreakers and criminals, therefore they have absolutely no right to do a single thing in this country. If they have a problem, too bad. It’s our country, and if we have a problem, we’ll do the talking. They can take their complaining illegal behinds home to their supposed great country and continue on there. They should be thankful that more people aren’t reporting them and getting them deported.

New Enforcement Audit Process,Does It Help Stop The Employment of Illegal Aliens In The US?
2Question : New Enforcement Audit Process,Does It Help Stop The Employment of Illegal Aliens In The US?
The Administration’s shift to auditing businesses suspected of hiring illegal aliens has recently caused the dismissal of thousands of workers who could not provide proof of residence. However, while this new process has been successful on the surface, it does very little to address the millions of illegal aliens in this country or discourage the thousands who cross our borders illegally every month.
This also does nothing to address the millions of people in the country illegally who have an incentive to remain here as long as possible in the hopes of eventually winning amnesty. As long as that’s on the table, they will stick it out because there’s a good chance of being rewarded
Richard Dayoub, president and CEO of the Greater El Paso Chamber of Commerce, said, “They (ICE) are really taking an effort by their part to understand the depth of the problem. I’m not sure what they will accomplish.”
At the same time, the Homeland Security Department announced it would give a seal of approval to businesses volunteering to use an electronic program to check workers’ immigration status.
The Border Network for Human Rights said in its statement that it “hopes that the Obama administration will rethink this outdated strategy and keep his campaign promise to implement comprehensive immigration reform.”
The last nationwide audit conducted by ICE resulted in 14,000 suspicious documents.
What do you think ?
Should all employers be required by law to Audit their own companies ?
Should they be required by law to use E-verify?
Do you think the illegal aliens should be able to work legally in this nation?
Great answer Myth
And yes I know there are many other illegal aliens in the USA but there are more coming from Mexico than from any other country.

Is this legal America appeal Aiding and abetting with sales that benefits fired illegal aliens?
7Question : Is this legal America appeal Aiding and abetting with sales that benefits fired illegal aliens?
Is this legal America appeal “Justice for illegals Immigrants sales benefits fired illegals with either fake, made up or stolen documents ?It was a holiday sale for a singular group of beneficiaries — illegal immigrants who had been thrown out of work.
“It makes me feel less guilty for buying all this stuff,” said Dolores Arellano, 19, one of more than 1,000 shoppers who thronged Saturday to the parking lot of American Apparel in downtown Los Angeles.
The trendy, L.A.-based clothier sponsored the “Justice for Immigrants” event to benefit some 1,600 employees let go in recent months after federal inspections uncovered discrepancies in their immigration documentation.
All the proceeds from the sale will go to the families of the dismissed workers and to organizations representing immigrants, said Peter Schey, an attorney for American Apparel in the immigration case.
American Apparel has been a strong proponent of changes in immigration law that would allow many illegal immigrants to attain lawful status. One of its bestselling items is a T-shirt bearing the Legalize LA logo, a motto that also appears on a massive banner adorning the firm’s plant in the garment district.
Saturday’s pre-Christmas sale featured discounts of up to 85% on shirts, sweaters, dresses and sundry other items. The crowd was larger than expected, and workers were constantly carting in boxes of new clothing to be placed on racks and bins spread across the parking lot, flea-market style. Some shoppers waited more than an hour to get in; later, they faced a half-hour wait to pay. The policy was cash only, no returns.
Some shoppers were on board with the sale’s pro-immigrant thrust.
“You’re buying things at a good price, but it’s for a good cause,” Robyn Ybarra, 22, said as she and friends picked through the racks. “I’m for immigration reform.”
Others seemed more attracted by the prices than the charity.
“Everybody’s entitled to their opinions, but I feel people should come here legally and by the rules, like we did,” said Sahara Ayineh, 19, who said she emigrated from Iran with her family.
Her sister, Saba Ayineh, said the prices were favorable compared with those at retail stores. “American Apparel is usually over-priced,” she said after purchasing an armful of new clothes. “This is more reasonable.”
Among the crowds picking through the bins were American Apparel employees and friends of the dismissed workers.
“Many of our colleagues have lost their jobs, so it’s good to know this will be a help for them,” said Carmen Garcia, 37, a native of El Salvador. “It’s very hard for them to find jobs now.”
Although the Obama administration has mostly ended the high-profile work-site immigration raids endorsed by the Bush White House, it has stepped up federal document audits of companies and workers.
Firms found to have workers whose documentation does not match official records may be subject to sanctions if they don’t act.
Supporters call the audits a humane way to enforce immigration law, without the disruption of raids. But critics call the audits inhumane “desktop raids” that still force low-income immigrants out of work.

Social Security Admin. Report: Bush Administration Guilty of Hiring Illegal Aliens
If President Bush is serious about getting tough on U.S. employers who hire illegal aliens, he can start with his own administration, which employs thousands of unauthorized workers, says the top Republican on the House immigration subcommittee.
A 2006 audit showed federal, state and local governments are among the biggest employers of the half-million persons in the U.S. illegally using “non-work” Social Security numbers — numbers issued legally, but with specific instructions that the holders are not authorized to work in the U.S.
“Let’s clean up our own house, let’s especially clean up the federal employment of all those working for the federal government,” said Rep. Steve King, Iowa Republican and ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee’s immigration subcommittee.
The Social Security Administration used to, but no longer does, issue non-work numbers to legal aliens who were not authorized to work but needed a number to obtain a federal or state benefit or service. Still, hundreds of thousands of those immigrants used the numbers to get a job.
According to the 2006 audit by the Social Security inspector general, 17 of the 100 worst employers using employees with non-work numbers were government agencies: seven federal agencies, seven state agencies and three local governments. That means the government knows who those employees are, but usually does not go after them.
Earlier this month, Homeland Security and Commerce departments announced a new crackdown on illegal entry that includes stricter enforcement against employers. The departments said they will encourage businesses to use E-Verify to check employees’ Social Security numbers, and said the federal government will write new rules requiring all private contractors and vendors that do business with it to use E-Verify.
Under current law, neither business nor federal agencies are required to use E-Verify, formerly known as the Basic Pilot Program.
Mr. King said the administration shouldn’t wait for new rules to begin checking federal employees against the non-work list.
