Thread: Idaho Needs Your Help, Please!!

As you know, I have been waiting for my Senator, Mike Jorgenson, to give me the heads up to publicize everything he has been finding out about illegal immigration here in Idaho, and the crooked stuff that's been going on between some of our legislators and lobbyists and a pro amnesty group. He has 2 newspapers who are going to be working with him, plus we are going to get him on some radio shows. We are almost ready to go, but I need your help to find some information for his arguement to get an enforcement bill passed here, and info he can use for his radio interviews. If some of you can help me locate some information, I would greatly appreciate it.

I need some articles where American workers lined up to take jobs back from the illegals after ICE raids. Did we have any for Arizona? The Senator needs some info about the effect on the economy in the states that enforced immigration laws, and the effect on the companies raided by ICE. Naturally, he'd like to see where these states didn't suffer from the raids.

Also, do we have anything that tells us exactly how many states still give driver's licenses to illegal aliens, and the name of these states?

Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate any help you can give me.

Tiny, I sent you the following information, I would have sent it to Jorgenson but it is better if just one of us does it....so you can compile and organize all you recieve and then send it to him.

Only seven states - Hawaii, Maine, Michigan, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Washington - allow undocumented immigrants to get driver's licenses

Oregon Ends drivers license program for illegal aliens
http://blog.contractcentral.com/oregon- ... ram-42.htm

Michigan has officially overturned the policy of giving drivers licenses to illegal immigrants. The change also limits licenses to legal, but non-permanent immigrants as well. The policy change was announced Monday and takes effect Tuesday.

So looks like that leaves Hawaii, Maine, New Mexico, Utah and Washington state (5)

Here is the article on Maine you read the other day about drivers license.....they did pass a law that you must prove you are in the country legally....so that leaves 4 states, if the rats don't get it changed this year!

but as of now you have to show you are legal...so change the list before you send him the information

Thanks, Populist. These will really help. Lots of good info. The only thing I need now are more articles about Americans taking jobs back after ICE raids, if there are any. I looked but couldn't find any on Arizona.

You're welcome Tinybob. Here's a story about the federal crackdown on illegal immigration and jobs in NC, that has apparently helped African-Americans:
