Thread: Bush Will Initiate Guest Worker Program Without Congress

This is floating around the internet and it appears to be legitimate.

The orders have come in. Just about anybody can be classified as a Hurricane Relief Worker. They don’t even need a passport or visa to enter. They can be “Paroled� into the US and given an “Employment Authorization.� For those that are not familiar with the INA, an “Employment Authorization� is worth [its weight in] gold.

With a simple stamp on your document bearing these 2 words a person can get a Social Security card in their name, a job, a hole new identity.

Los Señores Presidentes Fox y Bush have found a way to facilitate the Guest Worker Program without a fight in Congress. Following are the requirements for the program. But, you know as well as I do, that these requirements will not prove to be an obstacle to anyone.

By the way, any of you listen to Univision or any other Spanish language TV network? The word is out throughout Latin America There are millions of jobs waiting for the willing workers.


Here is the Memo.



MEMORANDUM FOR: DIRECTORS, FIELD OPERATIONS

DIRECTOR, PRECLEARANCE

FROM: Assistant Commissioner

Office of Field Operations

SUBJECT: Interim Guidance Process for Entry of
Hurricane Katrina Relief Workers

This memorandum addresses the interim procedures to be
immediately instituted at ports of entry for the
processing of foreign nationals to provide emergency
services in conjunction with the Hurricane Katrina
relief efforts. Additional guidance will be
forthcoming but these processes will be utilized until
those final processes are in place.

In processing relief workers, the role of Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) will be three-fold:

1. To ensure that bona fide applicants for admission
in support of the Hurricane Katrina relief efforts are
processed expeditiously;

2. To ensure that the security of the inspection
process is sufficient to eliminate frivolous or
fraudulent applications for admission; and

3. To support the relief efforts to the greatest
extent possible while enforcing the immigration
statute and regulation.

In this instance, relief workers are considered to be
those providing emergency services as a result of
Hurricane Katrina. These may include utility workers
to assist with power and telecommunication
restoration, transportation companies needed to
deliver specific cargo or supplies, foreign engineers
or professionals to assist with flood mitigation, and
foreign relief workers with international aid
organizations such as the International Red Cross and
Doctors Without Borders, among others.

The CBP Office of Field Operations Field Liaison Unit
will coordinate all requests for the admission of
foreign relief workers. To the extent possible, ports
of entry will be notified in advance of the arrival of
relief workers. In those cases where relief workers
make application for admission with advance notice,
such requests must be immediately forwarded to the
Field Liaison Unit who will then coordinate with
affected and responsible agencies and will arrange for
the expedited vetting of the requests.

Once a request has been reviewed by the Field Liaison
Unit, the ports of entry will be notified of the
appropriate type or class of admission (i.e., B-1 or
parole):

Where admission in a nonimmigrant category is
authorized, generally the individual will not require
employment authorization as it will have been
determined that their activity in the United States
would not constitute employment under the immigration
laws.

If the individual is not in possession of the
appropriate passport and visa, the documentary
requirements will be waived without fee. The period of
admission should be for the period of time
commensurate with the expected duration of their need,
not to exceed one year. In consideration of
operational needs and with GS-13 or higher review and
approval, enrollment in ENFORCE may be waived.

Where parole has been authorized - for purposes of
Hurricane Katrina relief workers only the Form I-94
issued to document the parole will be annotated just
below the parole stamp with “Employment Authorized. On
the reverse side of the Form I-94, list the occupation
of the parolee in Box 18 and note the employer or
sponsoring organization in box 26 under “Comments. The
parole code will be “DT.

The period of parole should be for the period of time
commensurate with the expected duration of their need,
not to exceed six months.

Parole will be granted without fee.

In consideration of operational needs and with GS-13
or higher review and approval, enrollment in ENFORCE
may be waived.

Whether paroled or admitted as a nonimmigrant,
processing officers must ensure that all inspection
procedures are completed. This includes, at a minimum:

Primary name query in the Interagency Border
Inspection System (IBIS);
Biographical and/or biometric queries in all other
appropriate systems;
Referral to secondary;
Secondary inspection results in IBIS;
Completion of all required fields on Form I-94; and
Submission of the completed Forms I-94 for data entry.

This policy does not amend the policy issued September
3, 2005 titled Admission of Crewmen in and Around the
Gulf of Mexico Assisting with Hurricane Relief that
stated that such crewmembers would be paroled for one
year. The parole code for all aliens, those affected
by this policy and the crewmembers discussed in the
September 3 memorandum, shall be “DT (not “CH).

This policy does not relieve the ports of all
requirements for NSEERS registration of special
interest aliens. Aliens who are subject to NSEERS
registration will be processed through NSEERS unless
otherwise exempted and will be appropriately advised
of departure requirements.

Where other grounds of inadmissibility exist (e.g.
criminal, security, prior immigration violation,
etc.), CBP may consider granting parole provided:

1) The individual does not pose any known terrorist
threat to the United States;

2) The individual does not pose any immediate threat
to the United States for criminal activity;

3) The individual is not likely to add to the illegal
immigrant population in the United States; and

4) The individual’s particular skills are deemed
absolutely necessary to the relief effort.

Watchdog, we already know about this and we found it very alarming.

Something else which I will try to find today, which I read yesterday, was that President Bush sent a message to Congress (I guess...he sent it to someone) and it said that he wants to stay on schedule with immigration reform. He said he did not want Hurricane Katrina to set that back at all, as some people have said it will.

The news said that he wanted to push forward because he is anxious to get a guest worker program in place.....for New Orleans!!

It was just a little paragraph, which I will try to find.

America's people need jobs not unlimited opportunstic foreign competitors.

With the incentive to find workers a lot of poor could have expected the employers to utilize every effort to go out and find them giving them good rates of pay and decent working conditions.

Now it would just take a call to large contractors overseas or Mexico to replace the Americans in those jobs.

It also means that wherever the legitimately skilled foreign contract employees were working will have to wait to get work done. So much for completion of levees in the Asian tsunami area for instance.

This what you're looking for Legal?

The drafting of such a detailed scheme indicates that President George W. Bush remains determined to push ahead with immigration reform despite the national attention on Hurricane Katrina.

Oh yeah. And then the pro-Illegal advocates will be screaming "They are rebuilding the city that Americans won't rebuild!"

Disgusting.

That's it, had_enuf! There was also a little commentary that went with it and tied guest worker plan into it, and even New Orleans.

Just like the title of this thread says, I think a Guest Worker program is on the way with or without Congress. Let's see what happens.

Can anyone imagine what is going on the southern border right now
That's why I don't buy Bush's speeches anymore....no matter how much he tries to sound sincere.

Words mean nothing when it comes to him. It's the actions that tell the true story.

I wasn't sure. Where is the original thread? I would like to read it.


The Dems are pathetic but here they have a golden opportunity to attack Bush and look good fighting for jobs of displaced black Americans. Something tells me they're not up to it though.

Exactly why the Dems keep losing elections. They continue to hitch their horses to the wrong wagon and constantly fumble when handed the ball.
This is a perfect opportunity to score points with the American public.
