Barletta knocks immigrant status bill
Lawmaker says feds’ “E-Verify’’ system would undermine state, local governments’ authority.
JONATHAN RISKIND Times Leader Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON – A proposal by a powerful House Republican to establish a mandatory federal system requiring businesses to verify a potential hire’s immigration status would gut the enforcement powers of states and localities, says Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton.
The freshman lawmaker, who is continuing in Congress a focus on the immigration issue that began when he was mayor of Hazleton, is criticizing legislation unveiled last week by the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, GOP Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas.
The proposal by Smith, not considered a liberal on the issue of immigration reform, would turn the voluntary “E-Verifyâ€

Yes, Barletta is on our side, he just disagrees with the House version of E-verify bill. Barletta is not the only one, pro-enforcement advocate Kris Kobach also disagrees with it.
We do have to be so careful with this bill. I believe the senate version is probably better, but what are the odds of it passing?

This is an example of how we can be mislead by legislation that may seem helpful. It is important to carefully examine the words, to understand the meaning, and to not be swayed by the name or names attached as sponsor or co-sponsors.
The Chamber of Commerce is definitely not on the side of enforcement.
Ephesians 4:32, it is written, "And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

GeorgiaPeach - This one doesn't seem to be a cut and dried, good or bad bill. Pro-enforcement advocates both support and oppose it -- Barletta and Kris Kobach oppose it, but NumbersUSA and Krikorian from Center for Imm Studies support it. It sounds like the Senate version is bettter than the House one. I don't know if you saw this thread on it ? for more discussion:

I understand that those opposed to illegal immigration could see certain pieces of legislation through different eyes. As we know, enforcement is a real problem for the federal government.
Hebrews 11:1, it is written, "for faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
