WINNING IMMIGRATION AT THE GRASSROOTS: Defeating Amnesty and Restoring Common Sense

A Sponsored Report Prepared By Th e Washington Times Advocacy Department An amnesty plan fi t for an emperor, not America

By Dan Stein

resident Obama’s executive order on amnesty is long and complex. Take a speed reading course and here’s what you can fi nd out: no- body goes home unless the Ppresident decides you are unworthy of his benefi cence. The president has drawn arbitrary lines in the sand. Some people have to have been here fi ve years or more, others not. He did not include parents of those who received earlier Obama amnesty grants, but instead made sure other relatives got his special treatment. Can this possibly be a power del- egated to the president by Congress? Of course not. It leaves the plenary power of Congress to set immigra- tion limits and standards shivered in fragments, along with our system of checks and balances. R Forget Mr. Obama’s claims of fi ne legal distinctions or the bogus ex- cuses about limited resources. These amnesty terms really are arbitrary. The president operates on a political whim, pursuing whatever he thinks is feasible politically. Mr. Obama is very close to organi- zations and people who want to de- stroy U.S. immigration controls. He is, as Saul Alinsky called it, close to the “scene of confl ict.” The famous radical can stop him, and this cannot be sus- and law abiding Americans. Mr. But they must do more.

TRUE Immigration Reform: Everyone agrees that our dysfunctional immigration system must be fi xed, but efforts by our lawmakers have ultimately failed for one simple reason: the interests of the American people have been consistently ignored. So, while many lawmakers say they support immigration reform, the real question is whether they support TRUE immigration reform: policies that place the interests of the American people fi rst. Protecting the interests of Americans is the reason our immigration laws exist. Excessive immigration harms American workers, taxpayers, and our most vulnerable citizens. That’s why we have to set and enforce limits. No more amnesties. We can create clever euphemisms, but the only people we will be fooling are ourselves. Any policy that legalizes illegal aliens is amnesty and will lead to even more illegal immigration. This includes any “pathways to citizenship” or legalization programs that grant green cards or work visas. Secure our borders. Only 13 percent of our borders are under “operational control.” That is simply unacceptable. To get the job done, we must use all the tools at our disposal. We must put more boots on the ground, add infrastructure (such as fencing) and implement proven technology to reduce the fl ow of illegal aliens across the border. End visa overstays. Approximately 30-40 percent of illegal aliens are aliens who entered the U.S. legally, but overstayed their visas. To end this practice, we must add Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and fi nally implement a biometric entry-exit system at all ports of entry—a system already required by law.

Stop the hiring of illegal workers. Unless we remove the incentives to enter the A SPONSORED REPORT PREPARED BY THE WASHINGTON TIMES ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT U.S. illegally, we will not stop illegal immigration. We must eliminate the jobs magnet by requiring all employers use E-Verify and demand rigorous worksite enforcement that holds both employers and illegal workers accountable. Robustly and uniformly enforce our immigration laws. Policies that direct law enforcement to ignore violations of our laws undermine the rule of law and are inherently unjust to law-abiding legal immigrants. We must enforce our existing immigration laws, eliminate fraud throughout the system, and prohibit the adoption of policies by state/local governments that encourage illegal immigration or provide benefi ts to illegal aliens. Enforcement doesn’t require mass deportation. If we enforce our laws and remove the incentives to remain here, many illegal aliens will go home on their own. Implement a merit-based immigration system. Our immigration system should choose immigrants based on an objective assessment of who is most likely to benefi t the economic and social interests of our nation. End family chain migration. Family-based immigration must be limited to spouses and unmarried minor children. Entitlements for extended family migration lead to an immigration system that is not based on merit, runs on autopilot and fosters exponential growth in immigration. Support the American worker. American workers are the best and most productive in the world. They are eager to work. What they need is the THE WASHINGTON TIMES opportunity to compete for jobs at fair wages, not unfair competition created by massive guest worker programs. In addition, just because we could benefi t from some skilled immigration doesn’t mean we should rubber stamp visas for every applicant with certain skills. We should develop and encourage our own STEM professionals, not discourage them by fl ooding the labor market. Limit overall immigration. We are a nation of over 315 million people. We

3 Obama’s Lawlessness the Greatest Obstacle to Immigration Reform By Newt Gingrich

omplete contempt for the country, the Congress, and the Constitution is the only explanation for President CObama’s decision to off er amnesty to millions of peo- ple here illegally by presidential fi at. Voters on Nov. 4 gave the presi- dent the opposite of a mandate. They installed his political opponents in virtually every offi ce that was seriously contested, and in many that had been thought incontestable. Republicans now hold a near-historic majority in the House, a likely majority of 54 in the Senate, 31 Republican governorships, the largest number of Republican state legislators in history, and the largest number of state legislative bodies in history. Voters disapproved overwhelm- ingly of the president’s plan to try to grant amnesty and work permits by executive order. An exit poll conducted by Kellyanne Conway’s The Polling Company found that 74 percent wanted Mr. Obama to work with Congress on immigration rather than go around it. Only 20 percent said they wanted the creates law from scratch. After all, situation and who certainly did not The path the president has chosen president to take action on his own.

llegal immigrants stand to make out nicely, seeing a big jump in their wages under President Obama’s policy granting millions of them temporary amnesty and the chance Ito work legally, but analysts say American workers in some jobs are likely to feel a pinch from new competitors. While most of the illegal immigrants to whom Mr. Obama granted tentative legal status were already under little fear of deportation, they were usually working in the shadows, either off -the-books or using a bogus Social Security number that trapped them in low-skilled jobs and left them vulnerable to abuse by unscrupulous employers.

LAW OF SUPPLY & DEMAND ONE LAW THE PRESIDENT CAN’T SUSPEND

The Obama amnesty promises to swell the supply of work permits for foreign citizens -- the last thing struggling Americans need.

Americans are suffering from a giant surplus of workers chasing too few jobs. Real wages are stagnant or declining in many occupations. Income disparity widens. Lower and lower percentages of Americans are in the workforce at all. A SPONSORED REPORT PREPARED BY THE WASHINGTON TIMES ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT TIMES ADVOCACY THE WASHINGTON BY PREPARED A SPONSORED REPORT TIMES THE WASHINGTON | Ye t , if Congress doesn’t stop him, Pres. Obama says he will offer millions more work permits to illegal migrants so they can compete directly with Americans for nearly every job in construction, manufacturing, truck-driving, hospitality and other service occupations, with many able to take professional jobs, as well.
