September 04, 2009 Jobs That Americans Won't Do Rings Hollow as Unemployment Rate Soars The Christian Science Monitor has a story about the false notion that there are jobs that Americans won't do. "With people desperate for income, downward mobility may be on the way up. News reports show long lines of applicants for a janitor's job or for work at a factory after a federal raid clears out the illegal workers," the paper's editors note.
American Apparel Loses Hundreds of Workers to Immigration Audit Peter Schey, attorney for American Apparel, said the company faced firing up to 1,500 workers this month because they had given incorrect employment information. The workers were found by an audit conducted by the DHS. The agency is not taking further enforcement action against the employees, most of whom are presumed to be illegal aliens using fake or stolen identities.
USA Today Editors: It's Time for A True Entry/Exit Tracking System USA Today notes that even today, years after 9/11, there is no effective entry/exit tracking system to prevent visa overstays. The lack of such a system "serves as a kind of advertisement to people the world over that if they can just get into the country they can stay as long as they want, outside the law, without much hassle."
NDN Makes Amnesty Promises to Administration's Base Simon Rosenberg with the NDN (New Democrat Network) is among those Democrats saying President Obama will deliver on amnesty -- real soon, now, honest -- to immigrant groups upset that Obama appears to have punted on the issue this year. Rosenberg says another "bipartisan" effort like the 2007 amnesty bill is possible.
Jeb Bush's CFR Report in Favor of Mass Amnesty The Council on Foreign Relations is touting its new report calling for "legalization" of the 12+ million illegal immigrants currently in the U.S. The Council says that "no enforcement effort will succeed properly unless the legal channels for coming to the United States can be made to work better," and calls for expanded legal immigration.
NJ Sheriff Fires Back At Atty. General Over Letter on Local Enforcement Monmouth County sheriff Kim Guadagno said New Jersey Attorney General Anne Milgram was guilty of spreading inaccurate information about immigration enforcement by local police in a letter Milgram sent to New Jersey sheriffs. "Because your letter so inaccurately characterizes the Monmouth program, you have incited an immigrant community in a way that can be fairly characterized as hate mongering," Guadagno said in a reply to Milgram.
