[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is nothing wrong with E-Verify.  Everyone should support it.

And bring back Secure Communities - even if the democrats are opposed to Secure Communities. It is the right thing to do.[/quote]
I don't think most people are against e-verify, as evidenced by the polls, including Dems.  However, a few years ago some Tea Party members and R Rick Perry were against it.  It's usually the business people and politicians beholden to the business people who are against it, yes including some Dems.  Something about too much regulation and burdening the businesses with more bureacracy and paperwork.

What is "Secure Communities"?[/quote]

It's interesting that the arguments against e-verify and holding illegal criminals until ICE can pick them up are the same. Too much work/not the job of the person being tasked with the work.[/quote]
PP here.. I agree with you, the only thing is that Dems aren't hypocritical about e-verify. Look up thread.. someone posted a list of senators who voted for the 2013 immigration bill, which included expanding e-verify.  Lots of Dems were for it. Lots of Rs were against it.

Look at what the bill consisted of.  It has a lot of really good immigration reform, specifically calls out chain migration and visas for low skilled workers.  It does allow for path to citizenship, but it clearly states that these folks could not get any kind of federal aid while on the provisional status.  And yes, it states the person cannot have any kind of criminal conviction to get amnesty.  Lots of money for border security and law enforcement.  Shame it didn't pass.

The Dems being for e-verify and against local law enforcement holding illegal aliens who commit crimes for ICE is hypocritical. How can you be ok with requiring additional work and responsibility for private business owners (e-verify) but against requiring additional work and responsibility for government offices (holding illegal aliens for ICE/notifying ICE of criminals being held) without being a hypocrite?

Similar to how R party hates illegal immigrants but their business people like to hire them.   Stop hiring them. They will stop coming.[/quote]

Same with the D party. We can't get our cheap fruits and veggies without them, so they're perfectly ok with having an underclass ripe for exploiting.[/quote]
What do you think Melania and Ivanka eat... non organic strawberries from Mexico?  Do you think middle class R Americans can afford expensive produce?[/quote]
