Swift Raids Open Up Jobs for Americans

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents recently conducted a series of raids on Swift & Company's meat packing plants across the country. About 1,300 illegal aliens were arrested, many of whom are suspected of stealing the identities and Social Security numbers of American workers. The raids are important because they show that: Americans take the jobs illegal aliens leave behind; identity fraud and illegal immigration are connected; and Attrition through Enforcement works.

The Swift raids are a good start, but one day of raids will not solve the illegal immigration crisis. Constant pressure must be placed on illegal aliens and their employers. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and Assistant Secretary Julie Myers have gone on record as saying they will continue to enforce work eligibility laws and take additional actions to track down illegal aliens who are guilty of identity theft. NumbersUSA asks you to help make this happen. CLICK HERE to send free faxes to applaud the raids and ask for revisions of Social Security rules to protect Americans from ID theft by illegal aliens.


Right now, most of the reaction to the raids in the media is coming from immigration lawyers, illegal-alien organizations and religious leaders who say it is inhumane to arrest people just because they have broken immigration laws and stolen identities in order to get a job. It is extremely important that Congress hears that public sentiment is overwhelmingly on the side of enforcement and raids such as these.

It's becomming "inhumane" to hold them accountable for ANY crime they commit. I remember when they said the only "crime" they committed was being here illegally. Now we're expected to overlook just about everything they do.

You are so correct CrazyBird, it is way beyond the limit of acceptability. They either think American are blithering idiots or a bunch of a cattle that can be driven in the direction they want us to Go, especially on the part about overlooking what havoc the illegals are creating! They just don't want us to interfere with their money making plans!

The Swift raids are nothing. Bush knows we are seeing 5 to 10 thousand illegals invading the United States each and every day. All the Swift raids are designed to do are to pacify a certain segment of the american electorate while Bush himself goes behind their backs and betrays this entire country with amnesty legislation.

The Swift raids are nice, but we have probably had close to 100,000 more illegals come over the border since the raids. Bush knows this and is deliberately misleading the american people. And they are letting him get away with it.

Dont' forget to keep your elected officials aware of our presence, they have forgotten they actually have Americans to answer to, email and call them, tell then you support the raids and prosecution of all people who come here illegally and steal identities.

Start calling and emailing people. Irritate and chafe those politicians, so they will get out of the OBL saddle and back on track where they belong!

I have been on it....I say we ROAR until they listen!

I have gotten to that age where people call me "ma'am" (although I am only 39), so I can get away with talking down to politicians as though they were errant children.

At my stage in life, I have that low growl, kind if like a mother bear (hence my bear avatar!).

I like your new avatar. Unfortunately, there are alot of politicians acting like errant children that need a good talking to.
