Senate Republicans are out with a plan Tuesday that they said would help fix Iowa's illegal immigration problems. A major focus of the plan is to clearly spell out immigration regulations for employers to make it easier follow the law. It would use Iowa Workforce Development to coordinate with employers and help them verify that employees' work papers are legal. Businesses and government agencies could then issue IDs similar to federal "green cards."

Under the GOP plan, illegal immigrants would be cut off from government services except in emergency situations, and couldn't enroll in public universities and community colleges or get tuition help. It also includes training for local law enforcement, and dedicating state troopers to immigration enforcement in each of the state's 14 districts.

Something not right here..................

Iowa Workforce Development works with employers and help them verify that employees' work papers are legal.
1. No national verficiation of social security number evidently.
2. What in the world are EMPLOYEE WORK PAPERS?

BUSINESSES could issue ID's SIMILAR to federal "green cards".!

Government agencies could issue ID's SIMILAR to federal "green cards"!

So Iowa is coming up with a STATE system of issuing business and state ID's without needing a federal green card??????
