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.
