“Respect Washington” initiative targets illegal immigrants—again

posted by Cydney Gillis on Wednesday, February 3 at 1:26pm

Here’s a group of people who just won’t take no for an answer. But, according to today’s article in The Seattle Times, they think they stand a better chance this year—after five previous failures—to get enough signatures to put an initiative on the ballot that would outlaw providing non-emergency services or benefits to illegal immigrants. Why? In the Great Recession, The Times reports, the initiative’s backers at Respect Washington believe more out-of-work citizens will sign their petitions.

In addition, The Times says, “The measure, I-1056, would require all employers — public and private — to use a free federal employment-verification system, E-Verify, to weed out those ineligible to work legally in the U.S.” Hard to believe that all citizens, particularly Hispanics, would not be looked up in this verification system, which immigrant rights activists have repeatedly pointed out is riddled with errors. Not good news for legal workers of any color.

Will the politicians that we elect ever carry out the interests of the American people?  I read today on the AMERICAN PATROL website that President Obama is in a discussion to cap government money such as cutting back on NASA appropriations the sending men back to the moon in 1020? Yet we are still spending—BILLIONS—on illegal immigrants who have managed to settle here?  If we cannot afford to go back to the moon, how can we afford to pay for illegal immigration?  Obama can find billions to Prop-up States like Sanctuary California to pay for illegal immigrants, but he cannot find the cash to pay for space exploration.  How can we allow millions of poor people to continue to cross our borders? So why are taxpayers forced by pariah lawmakers to pay for education, health care and even now anticipating BILLIONS more dollars to enact a ominous Comprehensive Immigration Reform? We all know by now, that this is a very crafty way to pass another AMNESTY. These people who have entered this country without permission? Every time a new immigration enforcement is passed, the open border Liberal-Democrats-Republicans use their influence to water the law down. How many of us know, that the controversial border fence is by law supposed to be—TWO SEPARATE—FENCES?  Senator Obama voted for it.  more than three years ago,  but only 35 miles of double-layered fencing is in place and much of the remaining 360 miles of the border fencing is badly constructed—without real barriers. The Truth is the government is lying to us.

The Secure Fence Act of 2006   (Pub.L. 109-367)  was enacted October 26, 2006 in the United States. The act allows for over 700 miles (1,100 km) of double-reinforced fence to be built along the border with Mexico across cities and deserts alike, in the U.S. states of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas in areas that have experienced illegal drug trafficking, human slavery, gun peddling, illegal immigration and the threat of terrorism. Rep. Duncan Hunter of California who was the originator of the double fence, has not seen this happen, nor the complete wall that is just open areas, with the old barbed wire strands. Underfunded from its inception, the border fence was compromised by the open border organization, that includes American business consortium’s. As in Washington today, a team of intelligence operatives stated to Speaker Pelosi that a El Queda attack was imminent within the next 6 months. This is the time to enforce our borders with the National Guard fully armed and obviously apparent along the whole 2000 feet length. The majority of our State economies are broke—with California leading the pack. Arizona lawmakers realizing the main cause of their financial dilemma, the support of illegal workers and their families.

E-Verify is one of the most successful mechanisms to remove illegal workers, but as yet it is not mandatory. It costs nothing to use it and it has been demonized by every pro-illegal immigrant group, along with corrupt politicians and their financial clients in the business consortium’s. E-Verify must be national, with no exclusions. THIS SHOULD BECOME THE No.1 PRIORITY FOR EVERY SMALL AND LARGE COMPANY, THAT KNOWINGLY HIRING A FOREIGN WORKERS CARRIES PENALTIES SUCH AS HARSH FINES AND PRISON SENTENCES. THERE SHOULD BE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE?

Our GOVERNMENT HAS SOLD ITSELF TO WALL STREET AND BOTH WALL STREET AND THE UNITED STATES ARE DEBTORS TO COMMUNIST CHINA. We cannot afford to subsidize every illegal family member, every Mother with a child who becomes an instant citizen, when 15 million Americans and residents are jobless, when our own people live in poverty. Yes! We always need exceptional highly skilled engineers and scientists, but not the indigent and desperate that we must endlessly financially support. Not semi-skilled labor that will take less wages, than our own people, who themselves will end up in the unemployment benefits line. Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 to be connected to your Senator and Congressman and use the voting power of THE PEOPLE.  Go to NUMBERSUSA AND JUDICIAL WATCH for more information about this catastrophe that could overwhelm this country in the coming months.

I don’t know who is goig to destroy this Country first, obama or the illegal aliens.

Illegal aliens have made America the dumping ground for all their illegal alien children, then we have to school them and give them free medical care.

I for one, am sick and tired of these ILLEGAL ALIENS snubbing their nose at our immigration laws and the many other laws of this Country.  If our Federal Government can not ENFORCE our immigration laws, and get these ILLEGAL ALIENS out of this Country, then let the States do it!  One way or another, an end has to come to this illegal immigration, and not with AMNESTY!  Amnesty will only encourage more ILLEGAL ALIENS to invade our Country and reward those who broke our laws and raped the American taxpayer in many ways…depressing our wages, taking our jobs, overwhelming our schools with their ILLEGAL ALIEN children, driving without a license or car insurance, all the crime from stolen identities to rape, drugs and everything else.

It’s time for ZERO TOLERENCE with these ILLEGAL ALIENS.  It’s time for them get out of this Country and back in their own Country where they belong.  When we get rid of the ILLEGAL ALIENS, we will get rid of all the problems that go with them. THAT IS A FACT!

Who can we elect as our leaders to protect the American citizen?

We can barely take care of our own families yet we spend billions on the families of lawbreakers that have come here with no invitation.

Democrat, Republican I don’t care which. I will cast my votes for those who will stick their necks out for the American citizen. We simply can not afford more mouths to feed in our failing country.

State by state we are seeing that the American people can solve the problem of illegal immigration without the Federal Govt’s support.

In the last few days alone I have seen new illegal immigration laws being put through by AZ, VA, ID,WA, MA and a few more. This is what we need in America. One by one the states are enforcing laws that our Gov’t chooses to ignore.
