Traitor Wu strikes again David Wu Congressman & Rapist Resigns in Oregon
Traitor Wu strikes again David Wu Congressman & Rapist Resigns in OregonTraitor Wu strikes again!
His real crimes were against the people of Oregon, although they voted for him even when they heard he had raped a woman in college. . His stauch on Immigration is at the level of traitor and he should be deported.My opinion is that anyone who sponsors illegal aliens, or who is in a position of authority and does not do everything in their power to rid our country of them is guilty of harboring fugitives and should be brought to justice.
This was a notice from Oregonians For Immigration Reform (OFIR). This Wu guy needs to go ASAP. What a traitor to our country and the immigrants who try to follow the rules!!Congressman David Wu is a cosponsor of the DREAM Act. (H.R.1751).
The DREAM Act if passed would give in-state tuition to illegal aliens, a benefit that would not be extended to American citizens or to legal immigrants from out-of-state.
In addition to reduced tuition, the illegal alien students would be given amnesty and they would in turn be able to sponsor extended family members to come into our country.
At a time when American students are facing increasing tuition rates and fewer classroom slots the DREAM Act is pure insanity.
The cost of giving in-state tuition rates to illegal aliens would be about $13,000 per student per year. Who is going to pay for it? Will Wu go open his own wallet or does he expect American students to pay higher tuition in order to make up for the millions of dollars in lost tuition?
Please call Congressman Wu to let him know how you feel:
Portland office: (503) 326-2901 or (800) 422-4003

The DREAM Act Illegal Alien Amnesty: A Bad Idea at the Worst Possible Time, Says FAIR
Despite overwhelming opposition by the American public when it was first proposed in 2000, the House and the Senate have reintroduced a sweeping illegal alien amnesty bill known as the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act.The legislation is a broad amnesty measure disguised as an educational initiative that would allow millions of illegal aliens who meet a very loose definition of “student” to qualify for green cards. In addition, it provides in-state tuition benefits for illegal aliens that will displace legal residents competing for a fixed number of college admission slots and taxpayer subsidies.
The DREAM Act represents yet another attempt to enact an amnesty for illegal aliens, either in one comprehensive bill, or piecemeal. The DREAM Act would also place severe strains on state budgets and harm middle class families who are struggling to get their own kids through college.
Passage of the DREAM Act would:
- Reward parents who violated immigration laws through their children, and provide a powerful incentive for more illegal immigration.
- Transfer seats and tuition subsidies to illegal aliens at a time when state higher education budgets are being slashed, admissions curtailed, and tuitions increased.
- By broadly defining “student” it gives amnesty to large numbers of illegal aliens who may be pursing any sort of education.
- Accelerate chain migration and exponential population growth because illegal aliens who are granted green cards will be able to petition the Department of Homeland Security in the future to grant their parents and relatives legal status too.
“The American people have made it very clear that they reject amnesty for illegal aliens whether it’s in one comprehensive bill, or piecemeal,” Stein said. to compete for their jobs, but allow them to compete for their own children’s educational opportunities. With private university tuitions already out of reach for most middle class families, and tuitions at public universities rising three times faster than median family incomes, the DREAM Act would be more than a reward for illegal aliens. It would crush the hopes and dreams of countless American families trying to go to college.

In Oregon case, Eusiquio Illegal Mexican Migrant’s word is enough to get birth certificate for anchor baby son, court says
In Oregon case, Eusiquio Illegal Mexican Migrant’s word is enough to get birth certificate for anchor baby son, court says
Jim Ludwick, communications director for Oregonians for Immigration Reform, said obtaining an Oregon birth certificate should require more than someone’s word. His group advocates for ending illegal immigration and favors improved border security.
This is how Oregon got their “Legal Mexicans ” ( NOT) in Woodburn etc Forest Grove etc. Migrants came from Mexico on temporary work visas, had babie or brought them and refused to self deport.
In Oregon case, Eusiquio Illegal Mexican Migrant’s word is enough to get birth certificate for anchor baby son, court says
Deport Eusiquio
Published: Saturday, July 23, 2011, 10:17 PM By Noelle Crombie, Jim Ludwick, communications director for Oregonians for Immigration Reform, said obtaining an Oregon birth certificate should require more than someone’s word. His group advocates for ending illegal immigration and favors improved border security.
Nicolaza Eusiquio was living in a North Plains-area migrant camp in January 2005 when she gave birth to a boy — an event attended only by her cousin. Eusiquio received no prenatal care and sought no medical attention after her son’s birth. For months afterward, Eusiquio hardly left her cousin’s home.
She sought a birth certificate from the Oregon Center for Health Statistics more than a year later, offering only her word and that of her cousin as proof that the boy was born here.
The state registrar turned down Eusiquio’s request for a delayed birth certificate — certificates issued more than a year after birth — saying the mother needed documentation showing she was in Oregon at the time of her child’s birth. A Marion County Circuit Court agreed; Eusiquio’s son was not entitled to an Oregon birth certificate.
But earlier this year, in a highly unusual case, the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned the lower court’s decision, saying statements from Eusiquio and her cousin were proof enough. It sent the case back to the trial court and, in essence, ordered that Eusiquio’s son be issued an Oregon birth certificate.
On its face, the 10-page opinion is technical, dry and deals mostly with a detailed history of vital records rules in Oregon. But legal experts say the case underscores a birth certificate’s growing importance as a gateway to American society in a post-9/11 world. Americans increasingly need birth certificates to do everything from obtain a driver’s license to enroll in school.
And it comes at a time when some politicians have suggested that babies born in the United States to parents who are here illegally shouldn’t automatically be U.S. citizens.
Cunningham-Parmeter, who has expertise in immigration and employment law, pointed to two bills that failed in the Oregon Legislature last session that were aimed at undocumented immigrants. One would have allowed them to pay in-state tuition at public universities, and the other would have granted alternative Oregon driver’s licenses. Since 2008, Oregon has required people to prove they are U.S. citizens to get a driver’s license.
At the heart of both bills was a person’s ability to prove where he or she was born.
Jim Ludwick, communications director for Oregonians for Immigration Reform, said obtaining an Oregon birth certificate should require more than someone’s word.
“For someone to claim without any hospital certification or any medical records or anything like that that their child was born here is to me absolutely crazy,” said Ludwick, whose group advocates for ending illegal immigration and improved border security.
“We have a situation in our country where government officials, whether they are judges or legislators, have no sense of what it means to be a citizen,” he said. “They basically want to open the border to anybody who wants to come here, regardless of their intention, and this seems like another way of doing that.”
Mother says cousin was only witness to birth
According to the appellate ruling, Eusiquio told a Marion County judge that she gave birth to her son in a migrant camp near North Plains on Jan. 22, 2005. She told the judge that she lived at the camp from November 2004 through February 2005 with her cousin Rosaura Hernandez, and she later moved to Washington. She said she worried her son’s father would be arrested if authorities were told that he had fathered a child. Only Hernandez was present when the boy was born.
Hernandez corroborated Eusiquio’s account.
Eusiquio conceded she lacked any documentation that would verify she was in Oregon at the time of the boy’s birth, the ruling states.
The ruling does not cite Eusiquio’s immigration status. Brenda Bradley, a lawyer with Legal Aid of Oregon, argued the case before the appellate court. She declined to comment on the case and the ruling. Eusiquio, reached through her lawyer, also declined to comment.
Tony Green, a spokesman for the Oregon attorney general’s office, said in an emailed statement that the ruling is “very narrow” and limited to the facts in this case. He said the state does not plan to appeal.
.
For a delayed birth certificate for a child younger than 6, the state requires two notarized affidavits: one signed by a parent and the other by someone with knowledge of the birth. The state also requires proof of the mother’s residence at the time of the child’s birth and the mother’s identification.
People tend to ask for birth certificates when they realize they need them for other official documents, such as driver’s licenses.
Effects on poor, marginalized cited
Though the ruling doesn’t have far-reaching practical implications — the state issued just 47 delayed birth certificates out of more than 45,000 in 2010 — those it does affect tend to be poor and marginalized, said Juliet Stumpf, a Lewis & Clark Law School professor who teaches civil procedure and immigration law.
“I think the people it could affect are some of the most vulnerable populations of our society,” said Stumpf, citing migrant workers, people without access to regular medical care, teenage mothers and even women who give birth at home.
Added Cunningham-Parmeter: “Just imagine if this mother had been a privileged white woman doing a home birth and the only witnesses were her mother and midwife. The state issues those birth certificates all the time. But now we have a Latina working in a migrant camp and suddenly the state has questions.
“I think the appellate court sensed the double standard here and was right to correct it.”
“This is a gateway document,” she said. “It’s going to mean the kid can go to school. It means the kid can get vaccinated. … He exists.”

Federal agents arrest 11 people in seven states for allegedly submitting false statements and documents in support of their H-1B visa petitions. The Department of Justice has also issued a 10-count indictment against IT services company Vision Systems Group, of New Jersey, for conspiracy and mail fraud involving H-1B visas. The indictment seeks $7.4 million in forfeitures against Vision Systems while warning that other IT companies are under investigation.

Federal authorities have busted an alleged nationwide H-1B scam ring, arresting 11 people in seven states and bringing a 10-count indictment against a New Jersey IT services company. The indictment charges Vision Systems Group with one count of conspiracy and eight counts of mail fraud and seeks $7.4 million in forfeitures.
The individual arrests were carried out Feb. 11 by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies in Iowa, California, Massachusetts, Texas, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and New Jersey.
According to Matthew G. Whitaker, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Iowa, the federal investigation involves companies that sponsor primarily H-1B nonimmigrants. Vision Systems and five other companies under investigation have said their H-1B workers have been brought to the United States to fill existing IT vacancies. Whitaker claims the companies have not always had jobs available for these workers, placing them in nonpay status after they arrive in the United States.
In some cases, according to the charges, the H-1B workers have been placed in jobs and locations not previously certified by the Department of Labor, replacing qualified American workers and violating prevailing wage laws. The companies and foreign workers have allegedly submitted false statements and documents in support of their visa petitions.
Since the allegedly false statements and documents were mailed or wired to state and federal agencies in support of the H-1B applications, the companies are suspected of visa fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy. In addition to Vision Systems, which maintains a branch office in Coon Rapids, Iowa, Whitaker said Worldwide Software Services and Sana Systems in Clinton, Iowa, are under investigation for document fraud.
"This is a prime example of how the Department of Homeland Security identifies fraud," USCIS (U.S. Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services) Acting Deputy Director Michael Aytes said in a statement. "Our adjudication officers can spot inconsistencies during the application process that ultimately lead to the successful outcome we're seeing today. Visa fraud undermines the integrity of the immigration system."
A favorite of American technology companies, the H-1B program is a temporary work visa program allowing American companies and universities to employ foreign guest workers who have the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor's degree in a job category that is considered by the USCIS to be a "specialty occupation." The idea is to help companies hire foreign workers on a temporary basis when there is not a sufficient qualified American work force to meet those needs. H-1B visa winners can work in the United States for three years, with an option for an additional three years.
The Silicon Valley has repeatedly urged Congress to raise the H-1B cap, which is currently set at 65,000 visas per fiscal year, but lawmakers have resisted, citing concerns over fraud in the H-1B program.
In October 2008, a USCIS report found that the H-1B program has more than a 20 percent violation rate. The fraud identified in the report included jobs not located where employers claimed, H-1B visa holders not being paid the prevailing wage, forged documents, fraudulent degrees and "shell businesses."
Even before the report was issued, Senators Charles Grassley of Iowa, Dick Durbin of Illinois and Bernie Sanders of Vermont were seeking reform of the H-1B visa program. A bill introduced in the 110th Congress by Grassley and Durbin would require employers to make a good-faith effort to hire American workers first. Employers would also have to show that the H-1B worker would not displace an American worker.
The bill, likely to be reintroduced in the new Congress, would require employers to advertise job openings on a Department of Labor Web site before submitting an H-1B application. In addition, the bill would give the Department of Labor a mandate to conduct random audits of any company that uses the H-1B program and would require annual audits of companies with more than 100 employees that have 15 percent or more of those workers on H-1B visas.
"This is about protecting the American worker," Grassley said in a statement accompanying the bill. "We're closing loopholes that employers have exploited by requiring them to be more transparent about their hiring, and we're ensuring more oversight of these visa programs to reduce fraud and abuse. A little sunshine will go a long way to help the American worker

This has been known about for years and suppressed by the media. Muslim Immigrants in Norway and Sweden target native White girls for gang rapes and rape, because they both despise them and because they are denied sex with their own females. The Norwegian and Swedish Governments have done nothing to protect their own women. So much for Diversity and Immigration

Three years ago, Port of Longview commissioners were faced with a difficult decision: Force a privately owned RSG Forest Products to sell a small six-acre parcel or risk losing a highly anticipated, privately financed $200 million grain elevator.
The vote was unanimous to sue RSG to obtain the vacant land through eminent domain, but the commissioners took a lot of heat for choosing an out-of-state grain company, EGT Development, over Kalama-based RSG.
On the other side, the commissioners’ biggest supporters? International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 21 members, who were excited at the promise of 50 new union jobs handling grain at the EGT facility.
This summer, the highly anticipated grain terminal is nearly complete. But the partnership among the union, the port and EGT has all but disintegrated.
The port has a contract with ILWU local 21 to hire union labor for all longshore work at the EGT site. EGT has sued the port to force non-union labor into the terminal. ILWU leaders have unleashed some of the most forceful labor demonstrations to hit Longview in decades to claim what they say are rightfully their jobs.
"I think everybody is having second thoughts now. They never thought it would turn out like this," Port Commissioner Dan Buell said last week.
Along the West Coast, labor leaders are closely watching the dispute, fearful that an EGT victory could embolden grain companies at other ports to challenge the union. The Stand, the Washington State Labor Council’s weekly newsletter, called the protest "one of the more militant union campaigns in decades." In June, nearly 1,000 ILWU protesters from Washington to California rallied in front of EGT’s corporate offices in downtown Portland.
The Port of Longview is caught right in the middle, Buell said.
"If the ILWU loses, that’s a big loss. That just starts the ball rolling for other ports. They’ve got to stay strong and prevail. And I’m sure (EGT parent company) Bunge would like to make this a test case," added Buell, a former union electrician and labor council president.
The standoff is being observed by Pacific Maritime Association, who will negotiate new ILWU labor contract coastwide in 2014. The stakes are huge, but a spokeswoman for the association, which represents the vast majority of shippers on the West Coast, declined to comment.
History of labor peace in Longview
Historically, Longview-based Local 21 has been among the least militant groups within the ILWU, said Ron Magden, a retired Tacoma Community College professor who has written several books on the history of unions on the West Coast waterfront.
When Local 21 dock workers, who operate at the port of Longview and Kalama, have protested, they usually were supporting other ILWU actions, Magden said.
In 2008, Local 21 members participated in a one-day walkout held coast-wide to protest the Iraq war. Local 21 members were also among the thousands of dock workers locked out by the Bush administration during 2002 contract negotiations with the Pacific Maritime Association.
However, Longview has never been ground zero for a labor fight, Magden said.
"It’s most unusual that Longview would be thrust into the limelight," he said.
However, the conditions are ripe for labor strife because the stakes are so high, Magden said. Chinese demand for grain is high, the fall harvest is near, and the current dispute will likely become a "bellwether" for future contract talks for grain companies, he said.
With nationwide unemployment still high and states such as Wisconsin ending unions’ collective bargaining rights, labor feels under attack, said Jeff Johnson, president of the Washington State Labor Council.
EGT is "thumbing their noses at local labor, saying, ‘We don’t need to have any part of you,’ " Johnson said.
"The ILWU has a long, proud history, and they don’t want to see standards erode at the port."
The ILWU traces its roots back to 1934, when a bloody, 83-day strike shut down ports along the West Coast and ended in a union victory. In the middle of the strike on July 5, a day known as "Bloody Thursday," five picketers were killed in San Francisco. During the past week’s demonstrations, several protesters wore shirts to memorialize that day.
Since then, the ILWU has fought for safer working conditions and better pay for members, growing into the West Coast’s most powerful union with the ability to shut down millions of dollars of commerce, Magden said.
Conflict escalating
This week, the simmering dispute in Longview, which began about three months ago when EGT broke off contract talks, finally reached its boiling point. Nearly 100 ILWU protesters were cited and released Monday for criminal trespassing after they tore down an EGT fence and blocked company workers from handling grain during the testing phase.
Union picketers also rallied at a Tuesday Port of Longview meeting and blocked a mile-long Burlington Northern Santa Fe train from delivering corn to the EGT terminal Thursday morning. Nevertheless, EGT CEO Larry Clarke said the company will stick with its plan to hire workers, likely non-union, to operate the terminal.
Portland-based EGT is owned by St. Louis-based Bunge North America, Japan-based Itochu Corp. and Korean shipper Pan Ocean STX. Its principal owner, Bunge, reported a $2.5 billion profit for 2010.
In January, EGT sued the Port of Longview in federal court, arguing that the company was not bound by the port’s contract with ILWU local 21 to hire union labor for all longshore work on its 38-acre leased site. EGT attorneys said union labor would increase their annual costs of operating the elevator by $1 million.
In a response filed July 5, Port of Longview attorneys asked a federal judge to order EGT to honor its lease agreement and hire Local 21 labor. During two years of negotiations, EGT tried at least twice to get out of that requirement but ultimately agreed with it, port attorneys argued.
The case isn’t expected to be decided until next year, but the conflict could continue to fester if EGT holds to its plan to hire non-union labor when it opens the terminal this summer or early fall.
Over the past week, law-enforcement agencies have incurred dozens of hours of overtime roaming the EGT facility at the east end of the port and responding to the demonstrations, which have largely been peaceful, Cowlitz County Sheriff Mark Nelson said.
Nelson said he has met with both EGT and ILWU officials to attempt to keep the peace, and he understands that longshoremen are fighting for their jobs.
"We felt like things were escalating enough that we were concerned for the safety of the employees, the people who work in that area," he said.
Tensions high between port, union
Despite all the protests, the ILWU has not called a formal general strike at the port. Dan Coffman, Local 21 president, said he doesn’t know if it will come to that.
He said he has the support of the ILWU leadership in San Francisco and other locals.
"I know that the brothers all up and down the West Coast are concerned about this."
In Longview, the labor dispute has created a rift between the union and the port, which ILWU members believe gave away too many incentives to attract EGT at the expense of local jobs.
Buell, who is retiring from the port commission after 18 years, said he hopes the two sides can repair their relationship, which has been mostly cooperative for 70 years.
"We really feel caught in the middle. The longshoremen really hate us, hate the commissioners ... probably hate the whole port staff," Buell said.
The vote was unanimous to sue RSG to obtain the vacant land through eminent domain, but the commissioners took a lot of heat for choosing an out-of-state grain company, EGT Development, over Kalama-based RSG.
On the other side, the commissioners’ biggest supporters? International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 21 members, who were excited at the promise of 50 new union jobs handling grain at the EGT facility.

Nelson said he has met with both EGT and ILWU officials to attempt to keep the peace, and he understands that longshoremen are fighting for their jobs.
"We felt like things were escalating enough that we were concerned for the safety of the employees, the people who work in that area," he said.
Tensions high between port, union
Despite all the protests, the ILWU has not called a formal general strike at the port. Dan Coffman, Local 21 president, said he doesn’t know if it will come to that.
He said he has the support of the ILWU leadership in San Francisco and other locals.
"I know that the brothers all up and down the West Coast are concerned about this."
In Longview, the labor dispute has created a rift between the union and the port, which ILWU members believe gave away too many incentives to attract EGT at the expense of local jobs.
Buell, who is retiring from the port commission after 18 years, said he hopes the two sides can repair their relationship, which has been mostly cooperative for 70 years.
"We really feel caught in the middle. The longshoremen really hate us, hate the commissioners ... probably hate the whole port staff," Buell said.

Illegal Invaders to United States Bring Third World Diseases Leprosy
Leprosy- now more then 5,000 cases in the United States, brought entirely by illegal aliens.
Diseases such as tuberculosis, leprosy, pertussis or whooping cough, dengue fever, hepatitis, Chagas are prevalent in third world countries and are being transported to the U.S. via illegal immigrants who are not checked and given treatment or vaccinations.
Whooping cough is a disease associated with lack of sanitation in third world countries. Places of high concentration of illegals experience sudden problems of disease related to the developing world. The media in Smithtown, Long Island, reports “dozens” of whooping cough cases without making the connection to the culprits.
Dysentery, a deadly and very contagious disease for babies has been found to have infected a Phoenix Police officer. Not washing hands or laundering clothes aids in the spread of dysentery.
Malaria, which was eradicated sixty years ago, has re-appeared in California, New York City, and Houston, centers of high concentration of illegal aliens. Blood supplies infected with malaria have also been found in our cities.
Dengue fever, a virus-based disease spread by mosquitoes, which kills millions of children in third world countries, is now increasingly found in the U.S. where immigrants both legal and illegal congregate.
Leprosy currently known as Hansen’s disease to hide its presence, is steadily rising with the invasion of illegal aliens and has accelerated since 2002.
“Hepatitis A-E is making people sick across the country. Chronically suffering illegal aliens who work in our restaurants, are sneaking across our borders from oil-rich Mexico to receive the free $1,500 per patient treatment. Not only do we pay for these treatments with our tax dollars but also we unwittingly become infected with hepatitis. Some forms are transmitted through unwashed hands while handling food, others through blood donations or contact with infected blood.
Tuberculosis, another deadly disease found in Mexico at a rate ten times higher than the U.S., is popping up nationwide wherever illegals are concentrated. More than half of the medical reporting districts in California have active TB cases. To make matters worse, a new incurable type of TB, XDR strain (extensively drug resistant) has appeared worldwide, including the United States.
Chagas disease, a tropical parasitic disease, previously found only in South America, Central America and Mexico, slowly destroys its victim’s heart and other internal organs. The Chagas Disease Foundation said, “Chagas disease affects more people than any other infectious disease in Latin America and that it ranks as the largest cause of heart disease-induced deaths in the region. The result of a bug bite that leaves behind contaminated fecal matter, the disease can be spread through contaminated food, blood transfusion, organ donation, and mother to fetus.
According to CDC, “Since initiation of voluntary blood screening for Chagas disease in 2007, nearly 800 cases of confirmed Chagas disease have been detected at United States blood centers. The greatest numbers of positive donors, now deferred from donation, have been identified in those states with the largest populations of Latin American immigrants.”
“Population migration can have a profound impact on movement of infectious diseases. The relative magnitude of movement of persons from Chagas endemic countries, including an estimated 18 million to the United States illustrates the problem.” (CDC, 2009)
“Although historically Chagas disease has been considered restricted to Latin America, the disease is becoming a serious health issue in the United States because of the presence of a notable number of blood donors seropositive.” (CDC, Emerging Infectious Diseases, Vol.16, No. 3, March 2010)

RENE GONZALEZ ZAVALA Drunk Illegal Migrant Mexican Car Crash FIre Multnomah Falls Oregon
Yep and no Immigration check up while he is in the hospital because the arresting cop was a mexican and the Oregonian hired a mexican to write about this crash.We get to pay for this over and over again. Don't tell me hispanics haven't been a huge burden to Oregon.
Oregon State Police - 07/16/11
The driver of a car is facing multiple charges following a fiery traffic crash on Interstate 84 in the Multnomah Falls parking lot early Saturday morning. The driver and passenger are both being treated at a Legacy Emanuel Medical Center as Oregon State Police (OSP) troopers from the Portland Area Command office continue the investigation.
According to OSP Trooper Kimberly Long, on July 16, 2011 at approximately 1:00 a.m. a 1991 Subaru Legacy driven by RENE GONZALEZ ZAVALA, age 30, from Mexico Compton, California was eastbound on Interstate 84 at a high rate of speed. As the Subaru tried to exit into the Multnomah Falls parking lot GONZALEZ ZAVALA lost control, crashing into road signs and then into the back of a parked semi-trailer. The car left over 900 feet of tire marks until it came to a stop.
GONZALEZ ZAVALA and his unidentified passenger were both able to exit the car before it caught fire and was engulfed in flames. The car was totaled and the fire spread to area bushes and grass before it was extinguished by responder fire fighters.
Both men, who work at a Mosier-area ranch, were transported by ambulance to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center for treatment of serious, non-life threatening injuries.
GONZALEZ ZAVALA was cited to appear in Multnomah County Circuit Court by OSP Trooper Jose Cortez on the following charges:
* Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants
* Reckless Driving
* Recklessly Endangering Another Person
* Assault in the Third Degree
* Criminal Mischief in the Second Degree

Rep. Lamar Smith has introduced legislation that would require all businesses in the United States to use the E-Verify employment verification system. Among its other provisions, H.R. 2164 would:
- Phase in E-Verify over three years, starting with the largest companies first.
- Require the Social Security Administration (SSA) to target illegal aliens using fake social security numbers by sending out “no match” letters to employers if the name and social security number of a current employee do not match. Requires the employer to check those employees through E-Verify after receiving a “no match” letter.
- Require SSA to send a yearly notification to each owner of a social security number that has multiple employers reporting income to that number indicating that the number may have been stolen and is being used by illegal aliens. Requires employers to run through E-Verify those employees who are likely to have stolen the number from the legitimate owner.
- Establish a phone verification system as an alternative to using the electronic system.
- Require the use of E-Verify for those contracted at day labor sites and other referral or recruitment services.
- Protect employers who use the system in good faith from liability if the system makes an error on eligibility.
- Protect states’ and localities’ authority to revoke business licenses of employers who fail to use E-Verify as required by this Act.
- Significantly increases the penalties for employers who refuse to use the system, or who intentionally try to game it. The fines levied can be up to $25,000 per unauthorized worker and a minimum one-year prison sentence may be imposed on an employer who engages in a “pattern or practice” of violations.
- Require SSA to lock the use of social security numbers when it is being used by someone other than the rightful owner, when the owner has violated immigration laws and been ordered to leave the country, or when the owner’s temporary visa has expired.

END CHAIN MIGRATION: 4 More Bill Co-Sponsors (Chaffetz, Duncan, Mulvaney & Palazzo
END CHAIN MIGRATION: 4 More Bill Co-Sponsors (Chaffetz, Duncan, Mulvaney & Palazzo
Chain Migration
Chain Migration is the primary mechanism that has caused legal immigration in this country to quadruple from about 250,000 per year in the 1950s and 1960s to more than one million a year since 1990. As such, it is one of the chief culprits in America's current record-breaking population boom and all the attendant sprawl, congestion, school overcrowding, and other impacts that reduce American's quality of life. Chain Migration refers to the endless and often-snowballing chains of foreign nationals who are allowed to immigrate because the law allows citizens and lawful permanent residents to bring in their extended, non-nuclear family members.
Chain Migration is the primary mechanism that has caused legal immigration in this country to quadruple from about 250,000 per year in the 1950s and 1960s to more than one million a year since 1990. As such, it is one of the chief culprits in America's current record-breaking population boom and all the attendant sprawl, congestion, school overcrowding, and other impacts that reduce American's quality of life.
Chain Migration is about family reunification beyond the nuclear family. Until the late 1950s, America's immigration tradition of family unity had only included spouses and minor children. But since then, immigrants can also send for their siblings, parents and adult children. These non-nuclear family members actually get precedence over an immigrant’s nuclear family. This ill-conceived system also creates incentives for illegal immigration because adult relatives of legal residents are known to overstay their visas (becoming illegal aliens) in hopes of becoming legal immigrants. Moreover, since hundreds of millions of people in the world have a relative in the U.S., the migration chain can eventually reach them all.
The claim that chain migration is about “family reunification” ignores the fact that each immigrant who comes to the U.S. “disunites” another family by leaving some new relatives behind. If a person really wants to live near his/her extended family, he/she should remain in the country where that extended family lives. Except for the very small percentage of each year's newcomers who are refugees, nobody is forcing immigrants to leave their families.
On Feb. 15, 2011, Rep. Phil Gingrey introduced H.R. 692, the Nuclear Family Priority Act. The bill would end Chain Migration by eliminating several of the family preference visa classes that allow adult relatives to receive legal permanent residency status in the United States. Parents of U.S. citizens would be eligible for a renewable visa provided the immigrant's son or daughter can prove that they can financially support their parents and provide health insurance coverage.

Eliminating Chain Migration was a recommendation of the bi-partisan Barbara Jordan Commission issued in 1995.
Rep. Gingrey's bill would eliminate the extended family visa categories (e.g., siblings and married sons and daughters of citizens, etc.), thus ending “chain migration". Chain migration is the process where seemingly endless “chains” of foreign nationals are allowed to immigrate to the United States, since our laws allow citizens and lawful permanent residents to bring in their non-nuclear, adult family members. It is the primary mechanism that has caused legal immigration in this country to quadruple since the 1960s.
In a change from previous versions, the 2011 legislation would also eliminate the parents category and instead create a renewable 5-year visa class for the parents of U.S. citizens. The number of parents who came to the United States in 2009 was 82,000. However, the parents would not be eligible to work in the United States and a U.S. citizen son or daughter would have to provide satisfactory proof that they can financially support their immigrant parents, including proof of health care coverage while the parents are residing in the United States.
Furthermore, H.R.692 would reduce the annual number of family-sponsored immigrant visas available by 111,800.
