"What is the "no work list"?
Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 (S.1348) require every employer in the United States to verify the employment eligibility of their workforce of both US citizens and immigrants through a new Electronic Employment Verification System (EEVS) operated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
This is colloquially referred to as the "no work list", as you would not be allowed to work if the EEVS deems you ineligible to work in the US."

I've just recently found out about the EEVS. All government powers are being centralized to the DHS. We are going to be a full blown Fascist country by 2009-2010. How many Americans do not know about the EEVS?

"This is only to ensure that those working are legally able to work in this country. This would include citizens, people with work visas, or permanent legal residents of the United States (those who have legally immigrated to this country but are not citizens).
What you fail to notice is that this type of system is already allowed under law but never enforced. Why do we have the IRS or SSA? To ensure that everyone working in this country is legally here. "
Exactly, so why centralize power to the DHS and spend 400,000,000 creating a system that can be potentially abused and exploited? If you haven't noticed *all* government responsibility is going to the DHS. This completely undermines our current government's structure.
Something like this can be used to permantly squash dissent. A simple Yes or No from the DHS will prevent an American from working. What if an American wants to leave the U.S.? He can't without the DHS approval since they also have a "No Fly List".

"It is nothing more than a political ploy. The politicians in Washington want to show that they are "serious" about illegal immigration. The new immigration bill contains nothing that is not already law in this country. What we need is to enforce the current laws with regards to illegal immigration."
I agree that the current laws need be enforced, but that isn't what is happening. Instead, new laws are being created that undermine freedom.
Another bit of information about government power being centralized to the DHS is National Continuity Policy incase a national disaster happens. A DHS council is made that makes the Congress obsolete until the national disaster is declared over. The policy practically grants dictator powers.
Congress or the media aren't even challenging the National Continuity Policy, which was signed May 9th.
