Shuler re-enters immigration debate with get-tough bill
Shuler re-enters immigration debate with get-tough bill

WASHINGTON — Rep. Heath Shuler will again thrust himself into the contentious immigration debate today by introducing legislation to toughen enforcement.
The Secure America Through Verification and Enforcement Act mirrors in many ways the bill he introduced in the previous Congress that attracted significant bipartisan support.
The Waynesville Democrat's bill would:
• Require employers to use the federal government's E-Verify database to make sure they're hiring legal workers.
• Increase the number of Border Patrol agents by 6,000.
• Create a pilot program to increase aerial surveillance and use other new technology to secure the border.
• Hire more Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and create grants for some local law enforcement officials.
• Expedite removal of illegal immigrants by expanding detention capacity and adding immigration judges.
Shuler is scheduled to formally announce the bill at a Capitol Hill news conference that will include Sen. David Vitter, R-La.
Observers don't expect an immigration bill to pass this year because health care reform, climate change and other major issues are crowding the congressional agenda.

07-23-2009, 11:12 AM #2The Pew Hispanic Center reported Wednesday that 636,000 people entered the U.S. from Mexico in 2008, down from 1.03 million two years earlier. Meanwhile, an analysis of federal court records found 9,037 new immigration prosecutions in April, up from 6,562 in January, according to research by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University.Please support ALIPAC's fight to save American Jobs & Lives from illegal immigration by joining our free Activists E-Mail Alerts (CLICK HERE)

Enforcement needs to start at the local health department when the illegal shows up for free prenatal care. Why are there arrests at jobsites where illegals are and not at the prenatal clinic where just as many illegals can be found? Anchor baby citizenship is just as big a magnet as the jobs.
