Won't they then get the right to have nothing less than minimum wage in which Americans would be making if illegals weren't here? So how can this be a selling point for Amnesty?

or the like. Why do they act like it is so much worse. Sorry, but I don't believe that picking grapes in the sun is harder than laying asphalt or putting a roof on a house in the sun. I think its crap.

I have many opportunites to work in the USA but the companies do not do sponsorship..does anyone have a list of sponsoring companies for auto/fleet mechanics in Orange County..California? I have over 15 yrs of fleet experience. I am a Canadian and Italian citizen. Or do you know of any other way to legally enter the USA permanently to live and work?( I do not have any immediate family in the USA, I am not eligible for a TN Visa (auto mechanics are not on the Nafta list) and I am already married, so these three ways won't work for me) I will pay all required fees to obtain a green card or working visa.

I'm really puzzled. what's the pupose of being a citizen or be legal if, illegal people can do anything that Americcans can. In california, latino immigrants can go to school, get GED, go to college .get jobs, buy stuff, send money back to mexico. Go shopping and all.

I mean, it's good but if that happens and there is no punishment whatsoever, then what is the purpose of laws and immigration and why do Americans are to be called citizens. it's meaningless.

As the US begins to step up enforcement of existing immigration law will you report a business that is obviously using illegal labor?

is this why, for once, the libs and the cons pushing the amnesty agenda?

On August 20-21, President Bush will join Mexican President
Calderon and Canadian Prime Minister Harper for the second
Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) summit.
The SPP's stated goal is to:
"...Consolidate our action into a North American
framework to confront security and economic challenges,
and promote the full potential of our people, addressing
disparities and increasing opportunities for all."

New York Times bestselling author Jerome Corsi just completed a new book detailing our government's rapid move toward a North American "union." It's called "The Late Great USA."

we should read all about this, i know i have mentioned it a few times in reponding to post. but we need to educate ourselves on what this could mean to the USA.

If a foreign student can't afford his in-state tuition for the semester, I believe he is supposed to leave the country. How likely is this student to get a new F1 visa if the old one expired and there is 1 year left to finish school?

Also, it's legal to stay for the duration of the studies even if your F1 visa is expired, right? e.g. if a student came in with a 2-year visa for a community college and then finished that and the very next semester transferred to a 4-year school to pursue a BA under the same visa.

Is there a limit on how many years a student can stay in the US on an F1 visa? e.g. can one come in on a 2-year community college visa, then go on to a 4-year school, and then to say law school?

My job allows me to telecommute full-time which has given me a certain degree of freedom with where I live. I'm interested in moving to France. Is it possible to live there if I already have a job that would allow me to telecommute? And by doing so, is it possible to become a French citizen after a certain amount of time?

Business doesn't want to pay a decent wage…Consumers don't want expensive products…Government will tell you Americans don't want the jobs. But the bottom line is cheap labor…The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie there is no such thing as "cheap labor." Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children.
He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free. He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent…He qualifies for food stamps He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care… His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school… He requires bilingual teachers and books…He qualifies for relief from high energy bills… If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this is at that taxpayer's expense.

He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.
Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour Left after paying their bills and his. The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.

Yes, a man named Pedro Guzman was wrongfully deported back to Mexico. Now, how is that since he's American (born and raised)? But he was found, thankfully?

It seems that they were iiresponsible and down right wrong to have make a mistake like that.

It seems as if they need to fix whatever they need to so this wouldn't happen again.
What do you think? And if you were deported, how bad would you want to sue the government?

rally behind me so that I can have amnesty for the stupid things I did as a kid?

I've worked hard all these years also and haven't broken any laws but it would sure be nice to have that monkey off my back.

Shouldn't I as an American citizen have the same right to amnesty as any illegal immigrant?

WEB EXTRA: Imam Masood, former leader of Sharon mosque, indicted on immigration charges



By Lane Lambert
Patriot Ledger

BOSTON - Imam Muhammad Masood of Sharon was indicted and arraigned in federal court this morning on 9 counts of lying on green card applications, and claiming that he illegally re-entered the U.S. in 1993 when he never left the country.

The former spiritual leader of the Islamic Center of New England’s Sharon mosque pleaded not guilty.

The criminal charges carry maximum sentences of 5 to 10 years in prison and fines of $250,000.

The 49-year-old Pakistan native was arrested and released on bail on the criminal charges on July 23. Last November he was detained for visa violations in a multi-state immigration sweep.

My sister and i arrived here in the U.s last april 1 2007, We are derivatives of our parents. Our parents have been staying here for about 13 years now. they applied for the asylee status and was granted last May 23, 2003. My parents has a private immigration attorney. we spoke to the attorney. but my sister and i couldnt ask much cuz of our parents are by our side and making scary faces. the attorney said we have to wait for 3 more years to recieve our green cards. she said we would recieve the green cards all together. We left our youger brother who is sick back at our country(philippines). we made a promise to hir that we wouldn't leave her until she was old enough. My father didnt want him to go here. so he didnt include my brother in the Derivative status that me and my sister recieved. cuz he was a child of another man. he is just 7 yrs. and left in the care of a friend. we are hearing bad things about how he is being treated. we love him so much. we'd like to go back to him.

I am tired and frustrated that persons here illegally are given any credence at all, and I just want to know some intelligent reasons why this is even an issue.

Forget the "guest worker" or "humanitarian" points as they are invalid.

I think we should treat all these illegals the same way that their home contry treats us should we decide to go there illegally. Check out the Mexican laws.
