what is the united states policy on illegal immagration?

Question

please give sources

Answer 1

# Enforce employer sanctions. The law making it illegal to hire an illegal alien has been on the books since 1986, but has rarely been enforced. The government must implement a consistent policy of enforcement against employers that includes stiff fines and even criminal prosecution of employers who knowingly hire illegal aliens and engage in document fraud or identity fraud. As jobs for illegal aliens dry up, many will return home voluntarily.

# End document fraud and implement REAL ID. In 2004 Congress passed and the president signed legislation to secure our nation’s vital identity documents and records, known as REAL ID. Without secure, verifiable documents, preventing immigration fraud is impossible. REAL ID is being thwarted by bureaucratic foot-dragging as some state agencies claim they will not be able to comply until 2018. It took seven years from the time President Kennedy committed this nation to putting a man on the moon to the accomplishment of that goal. It is simply unacceptable that it should take twice that long to implement a program that secures our vital documents.

# Implement an electronic employment verification system. A secure, verifiable work authorization system was called for in the 1986 immigration law and reinforced by legislation in 1996. While Congress did not specify a precise verification system, they have already twice authorized that one be developed. If credit card companies, banks and countless other private enterprises can run millions of verifications every single day from anywhere on the planet, there is no technological reason why we cannot have a system in place that verifies the eligibility of a much small number of people who get hired on any given day.

# Construct the border security fence. In October 2006, President Bush signed a bill authorizing the construction of some 700 miles of fencing along our southern border. So far 11 miles have been built and the new congressional leadership has indicated that they may not fund the rest. Security fences are effective as part of an overall strategy that also removes the incentive to enter the country illegally.

# Fully fund the Border Patrol. The current authorization for Border Patrol officers is 18,000 by the end of FY 2008. Congress must appropriate the funds to fully staff this vital component of our homeland security effort.

Answer 2

The policy on illegal immigration is to always talk about making a policy for illegal immigration....talk, talk and more talk, yet still no actions. Congress is words, not deeds. It should be the other way around.

Answer 3

The Dems are all for it. The more the better, because they think that 90% of these Mexicans will vote Democratic. So go ahead and elect Thick Ankles Clinton, or OHHHHH-Bama. Then learn to speak Spanish, so you can buy things at the store.

Answer 4

It's against the law. And it's punished by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents, subject to the available limits of personnel and law enforcement resources.

Federal law also prohibits (foolishly, some say) states or towns from enforcing federal immigration laws.

Answer 5

Illegal=criminal=deportation!!!!!!! Still waiting on the gov't to enforce our labor & immigration laws.

Answer 6

Our policy is this:

Let as many of these copper-toned roaches over here as possible while acting like we (the govt) are really doing something about it.

Mago-Don't use words like "Pendejo" here, wet back. We live in America, speak English. If you are gonna speak slang, make sure it is English-sounding at least.

Answer 7

Dysfunctional.
