U.S. Supreme Court Upholds Arizona Illegal Immigrant Hiring Law
The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld an Arizona law that harshly penalizes businesses for knowingly hiring illegal immigrants.
In a ruling that could exert pressure on Congress and other states, the court in what amounts to a 5-3 decision declared that Arizona’s law fits within the state’s powers and does not infringe on federal turf. .
“Arizona hopes that its law will result in more effective enforcement of the prohibition on employing unauthorized aliens,” Chief Justice John Roberts, Jr. wrote, adding that “the Arizona regulation does not otherwise conflict with federal law.”
The highly anticipated decision keeps intact the 2007 Legal Arizona Workers Act. Employers could have their business licenses suspended or revoked for hiring illegal immigrants, under the law.
The law also requires Arizona employers to use a federal program called E-Verify to check the immigration status of potential workers. Justices likewise upheld this provision, with Robert calling it “entirely consistent” with federal law.
The decision affirms the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which had likewise upheld the state law. It is a defeat for the politically powerful U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Obama administration, both of which had opposed the Arizona law.
Now, the House needs to get busy in mandating E-Verify for all employment in the United States. Big corporate business have been dumping their employment problems on American taxpayers for decades and it is time to stop.
Want to bet that with E-Verify, there will be more jobs available for legal resident Americans?
And, if the Congress, does not act or President Obama vetoes the legislation, then the states should take up the issue and pass their own laws.

A VICTORY FOR ALL JOBLESS AMERICANS
The American people finally have their interests recognized,
by the Supreme Court of the land, asserting that Arizona’s federal mandatory
E-Verify was upheld. Today it’s a major victory for the American workers and a
killing stroke to the US Chamber of Commerce and an attempt by the Department
of Justice to protect illegal aliens in the workplace. This will strengthen ATTRITION BY ENFORCEMENT in every business and control penalties with
businesses that don’t comply. It gives all states the right to implement and
mandate the E-Verify program and open the door to hefty fines, loss of
business licenses, assets and the risk of prison.
Other states will now
follow the example of Arizona and those who don’t, will be in the forefront of
mass evacuations from these hard policing states to states as the Sanctuary
State of California, Nevada and Utah. In a 5-3 victory the justices, repudiated
the pro-illegal politicians, Governors, Mayors and lower ranks of leftist and
Rino Republicans.
ONE
QUESTION THAT MUST BE ASKED, CAN ILLEGAL WORKERS USE A ITIN NUMBER
INSTEAD OF A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER WITH OTHER DOCUMENTS? WILL THE
ITIN NUMBER BE ACCEPTABLE AS E-VERIFY IDENTIFICATION, AS THE US
GOVERNMENT KNOWS ILLEGAL ALIENS CAN USE THIS NUMBER AS THE IRS SUPPLIES
IT?
Nothing will do more, including the fence, to reverse
future illegal immigration occupation and accelerate the departure of the
current 20 million illegal populations than taking away the job magnet. This is
a significant win as other States following Arizona’s lead, could have been crushed
if the verdict had gone the alternative route. The American workers now have
the impetus, to push the Congress and with the help of the monolithic
Tea Party to mandate E-Verify nationwide. This will mean the
propagation of E-Verify, with audits on all manner of business, including
contractors and sub-contractors in every occupation. American labor must unite
to uncover unscrupulous companies from large to small, who are using discount
services. More and more patriotic Citizens and residents are joining other
“Whistle Blowers” in contacting ICE and local police, of illegal
aliens working in construction, manufacturing and thousands of other
industries.
Another issue that many states see as a major peril to our sovereignty
rights is illegal aliens using the absentee ballot system to vote in elections.
New York, Colorado, New Jersey, Texas are being investigated by state Attorney
General commissions. Acorn is still a major player and although dissolved on
paper, is still involved in the registration racket. There are occurrences in
California and Nevada of manipulation of voter rolls.
Can any American citizen or green card holder imagine what this country was
like thirty years ago, before the illegal immigrant invasion? How many hundreds
of billions of dollars, perhaps even a Trillion in three decades? Fewer illegal
aliens meant fewer taxes to support the huge support mechanism that we have
today? An example would be California, was a less congested place, where there
was room to breathe? Just think were those taxes to subsidize illegal
immigrants today could be highly beneficial, if it was spent on our own population.
Education, for instance is forced on us, by a federal court that we must
pay the schooling for every child of illegal immigrants. Then we have health
care that the courts say, that anybody who breaks the law to come here is
entitled to treatment. Remember in1912 the Titanic sunk, but not because of the
iceberg above the Atlantic Ocean, but what was ominously concealed beneath the
surface?
This is the same story with illegal immigration and the failure
to place, 5000 “boots on ground. “of the each border States Nation
Guardsman permanently? I was astounded to read a “Wikileaks”
secret document, that the border is intentionally left open for the clandestine
arrangement to merge Canada, Mexico and the United States. You have a chance to
read these reports at Wikileaks website, under the headline, “Viewing
cable 05OTTAWA268, PLACING A NEW NORTH AMERICAN INITIATIVE.” This is a
serious situation concocted by the Canadian Paul CELLUCCI and American Ambassador,
which seems to never have been observed by Congress.
From both parties are hundreds of thousands, tens of millions finding that
the TEA PARTY, doesn’t discriminate against race or religion. That these people
are delusion by the Liberals, democrats and Republicans, that are not doing
enough to stop the in-sourcing of illegal immigrants or outsourcing of jobs to
foreign countries. Cafta and Nafta was a massive mistake as the whole “FREE
TRADE AGEEMENTS” have been detrimental to our society. We are importing
everything from a nail file to steel, at far below the cost of doing business
here? Once a lender of billions of dollars, we must now go cap in hand to
Communist China, that owns our debts. We are the greatest market in the world,
but our commerce is undercut by artificially engineering their currencies. The
only winners in this commercial game are the importers of inferior products,
who are profiting.
As Billionaire Donald
Trump we should place a 25 % import tax on everything coming to our country,
and begin to rebuild our manufacturing industries again. An intentional failure of every administration
to secure our borders or enact laws that would obstruct foreign national at the
border, or a tracking system to deport visa overstays. E-Verify will eradicate
this problem of the issuance of a Secure Communities law, to enforce that every
police department fingerprint and send those scans to ICE. If you want less
government, a fair Tax system, individual responsibility and the return of federal
excessive power to the states, join the Tea Party in your local area.
Tell your Federal, State or local
lawmaker, unless they join the TEA PARTY, they will be out of office in 2012.
