 | Hiring illegal immigrants is a CRIME punishable by fines and/or prison time |
| Illegal immigration is a CRIME |
| Employers paying illegal immigrants and not withholding taxes is a CRIME |
| US Citizens want to work but their jobs have been stolen |
| Homeowners using illegal immigrant labor are violating the law | |
Greedy Employers who use illegal immigrants are illegally profiting. This
CHEAP labor is costing our Country BILLIONS of dollars each year. In 2005
alone, more than Fifteen BILLION dollars was wired to the country of
Mexico alone by illegals with no documentation. The withholding taxes
from Fifteen BILLION dollars are needed by our Government. They wire
their money out of our Country instead of spending it here to help our
economy.
We, as legal workers, pay our taxes. Our tax dollars are used to pay for
education, medical, welfare and other services that are for people who
are citizens or in this Country legally. We wait in emergency rooms with
insurance cards in our hands while illegal immigrants with NO
documentation are treated free while we wait hours for treatment.
Having a baby born in this Country does not make someone a Citizen of
this Country.

Mexico’s Ideal Immigration Law--Let’s try it here at home
Center for Security Policy ^ | April 13, 2006 | J. Michael Waller
Mexico has a radical idea for a rational immigration policy that most Americans would love. However, Mexican officials haven’t been
sharing that idea with us as they press for our Congress to adopt the McCain-Kennedy immigration reform bill.
That’s too bad, because Mexico, which annually deports more illegal aliens than the United States does, has much to teach us about
how it handles the immigration issue. At a time when the Supreme Court and many politicians seek to bring American law in line with
foreign legal norms, it’s noteworthy that nobody has argued that the US look at how Mexico deals with immigration and what it might
teach us about how best to solve our illegal immigration problem.
Mexico has a single, streamlined law that ensures that foreign visitors and immigrants are:
in the country legally;
have the means to sustain themselves economically;
not destined to be burdens on society;
of economic and social benefit to society;
of good character and have no criminal records; and
contributors to the general well-being of the nation.
The law also ensures that:
Immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor;
Foreign visitors do not violate their visa status;
Foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country’s internal politics;
Foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported;
Foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;
Those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.
Who could disagree with such a law? It makes perfect sense. The Mexican constitution strictly defines the rights of citizens – and the
denial of many fundamental rights to non-citizens, illegal and illegal. Under the constitution, the Ley General de Población, or General
Law on Population, spells out specifically the country’s immigration policy.
It is an interesting law – and one that should cause us all to ask, Why is our great southern neighbor pushing us to water down our
own immigration laws and policies, when its own immigration restrictions are the toughest on the continent?
If the United States adopted the law, Mexico no doubt would denounce it as a manifestation of American racism and bigotry.
We looked at the immigration provisions of the Mexican constitution. Now let’s look at Mexico’s main immigration law.
Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:
Foreigners are admitted into Mexico “according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress.” (Article 32)
Immigration officials must “ensure” that “immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for
their sustenance” and for their dependents. (Article 34)
Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets “the equilibrium of the national demographics,” when foreigners
are deemed detrimental to “economic or national interests,” when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they
have broken Mexican laws, and when “they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.” (Article 37)
The Secretary of Governance may “suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national
interest.” (Article 38)
Mexican authorities must keep track of every single person in the country:
Federal, local and municipal police must cooperate with federal immigration authorities upon request, i.e., to assist in the arrests of
illegal immigrants. (Article 73)
A National Population Registry keeps track of “every single individual who comprises the population of the country,” and verifies each
individual’s identity. (Articles 85 and 86)
A national Catalog of Foreigners tracks foreign tourists and immigrants (Article 87), and assigns each individual with a unique tracking
number (Article 91).
Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned:
Foreigners with fake immigration papers may be fined or imprisoned. (Article 116)
Foreigners who sign government documents “with a signature that is false or different from that which he normally uses” are subject to
fine and imprisonment. (Article 116)
Foreigners who fail to obey the rules will be fined, deported, and/or imprisoned:
Foreigners who fail to obey a deportation order are to be punished. (Article 117)
Foreigners who are deported from Mexico and attempt to re-enter the country without authorization can be imprisoned for up to 10
years. (Article 118)
Foreigners who violate the terms of their visa may be sentenced to up to six years in prison (Articles 119, 120 and 121). Foreigners
who misrepresent the terms of their visa while in Mexico – such as working with out a permit – can also be imprisoned.
Under Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony. The General Law on Population says,
“A penalty of up to two years in prison and a fine of three hundred to five thousand pesos will be imposed on the foreigner who enters
the country illegally.” (Article 123)
Foreigners with legal immigration problems may be deported from Mexico instead of being imprisoned. (Article 125)
Foreigners who “attempt against national sovereignty or security” will be deported. (Article 126)
Mexicans who help illegal aliens enter the country are themselves considered criminals under the law:
A Mexican who marries a foreigner with the sole objective of helping the foreigner live in the country is subject to up to five years in
prison. (Article 127)
Shipping and airline companies that bring undocumented foreigners into Mexico will be fined. (Article 132)
All of the above runs contrary to what Mexican leaders are demanding of the United States. The stark contrast between Mexico’s
immigration practices versus its American immigration preachings is telling. It gives a clear picture of the Mexican government’s
agenda: to have a one-way immigration relationship with the United States.
Let’s call Mexico’s bluff on its unwarranted interference in U.S. Immigration policy. Let’s propose, just to make a point, that the North
American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) member nations standardize their immigration laws by using Mexico’s own law as a model.
