Pressure On Napolitano to Keep Up Workplace Raids
Wednesday, May 06, 2009 at 11:02 am
Senator Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), the new ranking Republican on the the Senate Judiciary Committee, just made quite clear the pressure on Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to keep using the workplace raids I wrote about today to enforce immigration policy and sweep up illegal workers in their wake.
Sessions is known for being tough on immigration enforcement and a supporter of making the controversial E-Verify employment eligibility system mandatory. At today’s hearing, he challenged Napolitano on why some of the workers arrested during the Bellingham, Wash. raid in February were temporarily released and allowed to return to work, and why there haven’t been more large workplace raids since then. “I wonder if the agents unintentionally got the message” that you don’t approve of those raids, Sessions said to Napolitano, who quickly responded that she will continue pursue worksite enforcement “very vigorously.”
Sessions was pleased: “I think it could have a big positive impact on the difficulties we’ve been facing with the immigration policies.”

Americas nations are cautiously being weakened by our certain pro-open borders politicians. Senator Sessions has been fighting for the American people, the AMERICAN WORKER for years as a true patriot. Now the majority in office his adversaries that include Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) Homeland Security Chief Napolitano and a cesspool of legislators have triumphed in reducing the influence of E-Verify, Real ID Act and police enforcement and detainment law (287(g) to arrest illegal aliens and criminals.
When you rationalize that the US Chamber of Commerce and the ACLU are always on the front immigration combat lines. With any new laws against illegal immigration that threaten their beneficiaries, they will file lawsuit nationwide, including Oklahoma at this time. These ominous entities are well compensated by quiet grants from certain nefarious politicians in our own government and corporate welfare. This exhibits to me that they have an agenda of the free-movement of cheap labor from South of the border.
We have very few politicians who have the backbone to fight for legal Americans, Such as Senator Sessions, Sheriff Joe Ariapo, and in addition Rep.Shuler, the author of E-Verify and the revised Save Act. If we want to fight for what's left of our rights under the Constitution, join NUMBERSUSA JUDICIALWATCH to stop 2nd AMNESTY? NO MORE TAXES TO PAY ILLEGAL ALIENS & FAMILIES! IMMIGRATION LAWS ARE NOT BROKEN, JUST NOT ENFORCED! So enforce the 1986 Simpson/Mazzoli bill, the Immigration Reform & Control Act as enacted. Offer your support to Rep.Shuler (D-NC) on his gov website. Phone: 828-252-1651 and Senator Sessions (R-AL) (256) 533-0979
IF AMERICANS DON'T OBJECT TO THIS WEAKENING OF IMMIGRATION LAWS—WE ARE NOT GOING TO RECOGNIZE THE AMERICA WE KNOW ANYMORE?

I am not satisfied with Janet Napolitano's response to Sen.. Sessions queries. I still bewlieve she is not fully committed to vigorously enforce our nation's immigration laws. I believe she has a tacit understanding with the pro-amnesty/ open border advocacy orgs La NCLR and MALDEF to circumvent and subvert existing policies like 287(g) agreements betweeen federal and local law enforcement. I say to Sen Sessions don't trust her one bit and continue to demand her ouster from head of DHS.

Senator Sessions is one of the few in Congress with backbone and integrity. E-Verify is a simple mechanism that should be universally employed. But of course the weasels in Congress block it every chance they get.
Everything you need to know about immigration and what to do about it humorously told.

Now, if only the President would quit promising amnesty, then maybe more illegal aliens would choose to leave rather than hanging on.

Senator Jeff Sessions is a fine public servant who stands up for the rule of law.
Janet Napolitano clearly is not fit for her job as head of Homeland Security. She has diminished all forms of interior immigration enforcement, refused funding for more border enforcement and insulted the vast majority of the American people and our returning combat veterans with a slanderous “report” called, “Right-Wing Extremism.”
Ms. Napolitano appears to be working on her own ideological, agenda-based myths rather than facts, which places all of us at risk.
Ms. Napolitano's job is to acknowledge and enforce the rule of law; not use (abuse) her authority to undermine it. She needs to go.

Napolitano not only slandered and infuriated large numbers of “right wing entremist” veterans, christians, and others, she has also angered her own ICE agents who believe that immigration law should be enforced, marriage is a one man/one woman thing, abortion should be banned etc. WE, ICE AGENTS, are now considered potential terrorists too! Absurd and outrageous. She is unfit for any office.

I applaud Mr. Sessions efforts.
It is far past the time that the CFR stooges in all facets of government be exposed and held accountable for their traitorous undemining of the United States.
Napolitano is just one of legion.
I want my country BACK.

How do you know when Janet is lying?
When she opens her mouth.

Napolitano should have been fired weeks ago. The comments she has made that have denigrated Americans in the armed forces and in the general citizen population have been reason enough. What is it with her anyway. Is this some new Democratic Strategy to see how many buttons you can push with American citizens before they react. She is positively evil.

Thank you, Sen.Sessions finally an elected official who places the safety, health and welfare of U.S. citizens over the selfish, greedy, special interests of illegal aliens, the profiteers of illegal immigration, including the racist, ethno-supremacist groups like the National Council of La RAZA, MALDEF, LULAC, ACORN (all of whom use illegal aliens as a fundraising tool and to gain political capitol in a leftist, power grab…buying votes from future “amnesty recipients”). Just say NO MAS to illegal aliens, NO MAS to funding for LA RAZA, MALDEF, LULAC and ACORN. Build the fence, secure the borders, enforce the law. SI SE PUEDE. YA ES HORA!

Oshama and Nappy are talking out both sides of their mouth. Pretty much talking sheet. She “says” they will use workplace raids (which were highly effective) but balks when the raid was done in Washington (and she let the illegals stay and gave them work permits-DUH) but no other raids have been conducted since. They are shifting tactics, using the guns in Mexico issue to deflect the fact that they will not go after illegals or enforce our immigration laws. They are now going to “say” they will secure the border, which will be another deflection so it looks like they are doing what Americans want. Its really just talk so it appears they are doing something but in reality their not doing a thing. Just enforce the darn laws, go after employers and illegals equally and deport those who broke multiple laws to be in this country. Talk is cheap, lets see some real action

How does someone go about reporting H-1b fraud? I've been phoning different numbers at DOL and Justice Dept and not finding the right place.

My Lord, are some Americans ever going to wake up to reality? Napolitano does not care about the U.S. citizenry, she is serving some other agenda. Why do you think Bush called the Minutemen/women, vigilantes? They never hurt one Mexican and in fact saved some with water in the middle of nowhere. The Borders of America are not important to these elites in the U.S., because as Dr. Mike Savage has said, they are serving some other agenda, than the best interests of Americans.

No Salary to H1B on Bench
I have heard many companies don't pay their employees on L1/H1B/EAD when they are not on project.
In my opinion the best way to stop L1/H1B/Employment Authorization Document (EAD) violation, is to ask all the companies that are doing H1B/EAD/L1 visa to submit every month the details of salary of their L1/H1B/EAD employees and their taxes paid to IRS. Also list of all the employees, which are on unpaid vacation.
By doing this all these companies either pay their employees or will send them to their countries back.
This will create level playing field between all the employees seeking Job.
