RECLAIM AMERICAN JOBS CAUCUS FOCUSES ON PUTTING AMERICANS BACK TO WORK

WASHINGTON, D.C.

The following information was released by the office of California Rep. Gary Miller:

Today on Capitol Hill, Members of Congress announced a new caucus that will focus on putting millions of Americans back to work.

Currently, 15 million Americans are unemployed, while an estimated 8 million illegal immigrants are employed.

The Reclaim American Jobs Caucus is a 40 Member, bipartisan caucus, headed by Reps. Lamar Smith, Sue Myrick, and Gary Miller.

As the national unemployment rate stubbornly hovers around 10 percent, the caucus will work to highlight the link between illegal immigration and record unemployment in the United States.

"If the immigration laws we have on the books were enforced, we could cut unemployment in half," Rep. Smith said.

"American citizens and legal immigrants should not have to compete for jobs with those here illegally."

"We need to turn off the employment magnet that draws undocumented workers," Rep. Myrick said.

"By encouraging employers to use E-Verify and increasing worksite enforcement, we make sure that Americans and legal immigrants are able to get back to work."

"At home in California, almost weekly I hear from my constituents that illegal immigration is exacerbating the unemployment crisis and the facts validate their concerns," Rep. Miller said.

"Although 2.2 million Californians are unemployed, nearly 1.9 million illegal immigrants are employed. This is simply unacceptable and is an affront to unemployed American and legal workers.

The Reclaim American Jobs Caucus seeks to encourage the Obama administration to enforce existing immigration laws so that the unemployed have increased opportunities to go back to work."

This caucus is exactly what's needed in Washingon, D.C. Lamar Smith's presence is a very good sign. He's not afraid to take on Nancy Unamerican. Now we need a Senate equivalent.

I have ten bucks on NO!

THIS IS LONG OVER DUE IMO. AND, I'M GLAD TO SEE SOMEONE IN WASHINGTON STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND DO WHAT IS JUST AND RIGHT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THERE ARE A LOT OF AMERICANS HURTING IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY BECAUSE, THEY CAN'T FIND JOBS AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE, PEOPLE WHO ARE HERE ILLEGALLY ARE THE ONES GETTING THE JOBS. AMERICANS CAN'T EVEN FIND A PART TIME JOB ANYMORE AND THAT'S PITIFUL.

Has anyone found a list of the 40? Please post. Thanks.
