Thread: One of every three Utah farmworkers is undocumented immigrant

Libraries are established institutions where non-adopters know they can ... from the SSRC have found that community- based organizations, such as libraries and ... more than 16,000 public libraries, 99% of which provide free Internet access.

The U.S.'s 19,492 municipal governments range in population size from very large (over 300,000) to very small (under 1,000). The vast majority (over 90%) of municipal governments in the U.S. have populations under 25,000.

There are almost 20% more towns than there are public libraries.

Whether by choice or through financial reality, the percentage of American households without a car has doubled over the past two decades—and is now approaching 1 in 10.

Almost 10% of households don't have a car, and of those who do own a car, a significant % can't drive it because it needs car repairs they can't afford, or needs registration, insurance and property tax payments they can't afford. So if you don't live within walking distance to a Library, it makes using the free service at the Library very difficult, because you either have to pay for public transportation if it's available, pay for cab service or mooch on a relative/friend to take you to the library, or pay someone to take you to the library. When people don't have any jobs, that means they don't have any money, which means they are very limited on what they can do to look for jobs. Employers have to find them. Employers have to recruit, like they used to do.

As Arrest Records Rise, Americans Find Consequences Can Last a Lifetime

Even if Charges Were Dropped, a Lingering Arrest Record Can Ruin Chances of a Job

America has a rap sheet.

Over the past 20 years, authorities have made more than a quarter of a billion arrests, the Federal Bureau of Investigation estimates. As a result, the FBI currently has 77.7 million individuals on file in its master criminal database—or nearly one out of every three American adults.

Between 10,000 and 12,000 new names are added each day.

At the same time, an information explosion has made it easy for anyone to pull up arrest records in an instant. Employers, banks, college admissions officers and landlords, among others, routinely check records online. The information doesn't typically describe what happened next.

Many people who have never faced charges, or have had charges dropped, find that a lingering arrest record can ruin their chance to secure employment, loans and housing. Even in cases of a mistaken arrest, the damaging documents aren't automatically removed. In other instances, arrest information is forwarded to the FBI but not necessarily updated there when a case is thrown out locally. Only half of the records with the FBI have fully up-to-date information.

............

Exacerbating the situation are for-profit websites and other background-check businesses that assemble publicly available arrest records, often including mug shots and charges. Many sites charge fees to remove a record, even an outdated or erroneous one. In the past year Google Inc. has changed its search algorithm to de-emphasize many so called "mug-shot" websites, giving them less prominence when someone's name is searched.

On Friday, California Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law a bill making it illegal for websites to charge state residents to have their mug shot arrest photos removed.

In 2013, Indiana legislators approved one of the most extensive criminal record expungement laws in the country. The law was sponsored by a former prosecutor and had a range of conservative Republican backers. One had worked as a mining-company supervisor who frequently had to reject individuals after routine background checks found evidence of an old arrest.

"If we are going to judge people, we need to judge them on who they are now, and not who they were," says Jud McMillin, the bill's chief sponsor.

The "growing obsession with background checking and commercial exploitation of arrest and conviction records makes it all but impossible for someone with a criminal record to leave the past behind," concludes a recent report from the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

Further analysis by the University of South Carolina team, performed at the request of The Wall Street Journal, suggests that men with arrest records—even absent a formal charge or conviction—go on to earn lower salaries. They are also less likely to own a home compared with people who have never been arrested.

The same holds true for graduation rates and whether a person will live below the poverty line.

For example, more than 95% of subjects without arrests in the survey graduated high school or earned an equivalent diploma. The number falls to 84.4% for those who were arrested and yet not convicted.

Tia Stevens Andersen, the University of South Carolina researcher who performed the analysis, says the results are consistent with what criminologists have found. The data, especially when coupled with other studies, show that an arrest "does have a substantial impact on people's lives," she says. That is in part because "it's now cheap and easy to do a background check."

According to a 2012 survey by the Society for Human Resource Management, 69% of employers conduct criminal background checks on all job applicants. Fewer than that—about 58%—allow candidates to explain any negative results of a check.

Mike Mitternight, the owner and president of Factory Service Agency Inc., a heating and air-conditioning company in Metairie, La., worries that if he turns down a job applicant because of a criminal record, he could be open to a discrimination claim. But hiring the person could leave him open to liability if something goes wrong. "I have to do the background checks and take my chances," says Mr. Mitternight. "It's a lose-lose situation."

So, again,employers are going to have to do far, far more than hire internet head-hunters to post a bunch of phony job ads on the internet for jobs they've already filled with illegal aliens and immigrants to hire American Workers.

To make matters worse, illegals with phony documents can look better to prospective employers than will Americans with an arrest which does not even lead to prosecution, let alone conviction.

If we needed another reason to abandon the delusional War on Drugs, this is it.

Absolutely. I agree with you 110%. Illegal aliens running the drugs in and hauling the money out get hired up before the jobs are even posted for Americans, yet Americans who got caught smoking a joint and arrested for it, will be black-balled by most employers. It's a major civil rights issue for American workers, and an obstacle to their inherent right to work in their nation of citizenship that they need to organize against and remove.
