Govt. Contractors Can Hire Illegal Immigrants
Govt. Contractors Can Hire Illegal Immigrants

Caving in to the powerful lobbying effort of business groups, the Department of Homeland Security will drastically relax a work eligibility system designed to crack down on government contractors that hire illegal immigrants.
Over the summer the Bush Administration announced with great fanfare that, by January 2009, all government contractors—nearly 200,000 with a combined workforce of around 4 million—would have to verify employees’ legal status with a federal database (E-Verify) operated jointly by the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration.
Outraged business groups immediately fought the plan, arguing that it was unduly burdensome and singled out certain firms. They also launched an intense lobbying campaign and bombarded the government with more than 1,600 comments opposing the proposed rules.
The effort paid off with Homeland Security drastically reducing its original plan by exempting small businesses—firms with federal contracts worth less than $100,000—from verifying their employees’ legal status and not requiring others to check their entire workforce but rather only workers used in specific jobs. This essentially allows firms with government contracts to hire illegal aliens.
The severely weakened requirements were revealed last week in a lengthy rule published in the Federal Register, the U.S. government’s official publication for rules, proposed rules, executive orders and other presidential documents. Now nearly 3 million federal contractors will be exempt from verifying workers’ status.Never give up! Never surrender! Never compromise your values!*

I think this is a duplicate
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

And DOT hires many immigrants - have they E-Verified them all.
Taxes from gas goes to the Department of Transportation for the roads. And the undocumented immigrants get the good paying jobs of working to upkeep road and new road construction.
Next, time you see immigrants working on the roads call and report to your state, call the Attorney General Office and asked why they permit undocumented immigrants to do contract work for the state.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Who do you think is going to build the "NAFTA Superhighway" from Texas to Canada if it is allowed to go through? Not many guesses needed!
