E-Verify

We Must Protect Ourselves

Celso Campo-DuartesIn 2005, it was determined that Celso Campo-Duartes was in the country illegally after he was arrested for running down Dacula resident Aubrey Sosebee as the 83-year-old man was taking the mail from his mailbox. Campo-Duartes also left the scene of the accident, a fairly common act by illegal aliens.  He had no insurance and a fraudulent tag on his truck.

Campo-Duartes, who was employed as a plumber, spent just over two years awaiting trial in jail, then was allowed to plead to lesser charges and was released immediately on “time served.” A condition of his release was that he “voluntarily” deport himself, but Campos-Duartes is back in jail today, having been arrested—for at least the third time since his incarceration—for driving without a license and disorderly conduct.

Senate Stimulus: 300,000 Jobs for Illegals?

Read this.

The Senate Stimulus bill currently being considered contains about $104 billion in new government funding for construction projects with the goal of creating jobs for millions of unemployed Americans. Unlike the House version, there is no provision in the bill to bar illegal immigrants from getting these taxpayer-funded jobs. This could result in several hundred thousand illegal immigrants receiving jobs.

Gwinnett’s Immigration Enforcement Leaves Much to be Desired

Gwinnett County recently announced that it would comply with a 15-month-old state law that requires it to verify the citizenship status of applicants for a new business license or renewal. But the county’s strict interpretation of the law creates a loophole large enough for an illegal alien to crawl through.

Commission Chairman Charles Bannister knows this. He also knows that there is a more effective enforcement tool available to the county, yet he has refused to use it.

NumbersUSA: E-Verify Will Die if Congress Doesn’t Act This Week

E-Verify is the most effective tool available to state and local governments to protect their communities from the negative impact of illegal immigration. And that’s exactly why one Democrat U.S. Senator is using Senate rules to prevent E-Verify from being re-authorized unless more “green cards” are approved:

Consider that the point of E-Verify is to protect American workers — and communities — from too many foreign workers. Does it make any sense to get E-Verify passed by giving away hundreds of thousands more U.S. jobs to other foreign workers?

The point of our fight is to protect American workers and communities.  E-Verify is the best tool going (although Congress needs to make it mandatory for it to really start pushing millions of illegal workers to go home). But we will have accomplished nothing by re-authorizing a voluntary E-Verify while flooding American occupations with another 550,000 foreign workers through Menendez’ bill.

Immigration status to be checked in Gwinnett

In June, it was first revealed at this site that Gwinnett County was in violation of the “Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act” by failing to qualify applicants for business licenses through federal databases. In response to a flurry of emails from constituents and coverage in the local media, Commission Chairman Charles Bannister and County Attorney Karen Thompson discounted my assertion and questioned my knowledge on the subject.

This week, Gwinnett County began qualifying business license applicants according to state law.
