Ala. governor thwarted on immigration law changes

California is sinking fast under the stagnant burgeoning impact of illegal immigration, as more these people pour into the state. This should be a genuine worry throughout every state, but it’s not in states controlled by Democrats with Liberal backing. In the opposite measure thousands of property owners are leaving the Golden State, now tarnished by a gross overload of foreign invaders. Many states are unable to comply with the strain of court ordered unfunded mandates, when taxpayers are hardly able to feed their offspring, Arizona was one of the states that have drawn the line in the sand, when all they want to do is protect the legal population. But are forced by law to educate, treat illegal alien families for the common cold to dialysis for free. What’s next in your state from Arizona to Wyoming? Do we personally have to feed house and medicate every person who knocks on your door? With Sacramento pampering to these people with welfare programs, then Obama's government giving out food stamps, the Sanctuary state is under a terrible strain. In just Los Angeles Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich website published that an illegal immigration costs were $550 million for public safety and nearly $500 million for healthcare, a total cost to County taxpayers that exceeds $1.6 billion dollars a year and that doesn't include the billions more in education for their children.

These billions are being spent to subsidize the lives of families who sneak their children into America, as these people are aware that the majority Democratic states will support them. Governor Jerry Brown is once again pleading for more tax revenue, to pay for everything including the largest population of illegal aliens in the country. California should put an end to the states incessant need for more money to balance their $16 Billion dollar deficit. California the embodiment of Sanctuary States is withering under the constant bombardment of foreigners with their palms outstretched and with so much on the line for people; they have nothing really to lose by fraudulently voting in the upcoming elections. Democrats don’t care and even covertly approving of this illegal act. California’s legislative body of all states should be required to use E-Verify? Not voluntary but mandated. The Legal Workforce Act will usher in a new period of restrictive practices of business owners, using labor with stolen Social Security numbers and other ID. Whether it’s the Mexican food chain ‘Chipotle’ or any other company nationwide, they should all be held accountable. It should be the business of ICE to enforce E-Verify, so American jobs go to U.S. workers who have that legal right. Businesses that don’t play by rules, should be heavily fined and in some severe cases, go to jail. Those who haven’t heard of the ‘Birthright citizenship Act’ should tell their elected officials from blocking this law from reaching the house chambers. The ‘Birthright citizenship Act’ laws when enacted stop around 400.000 illegal alien mothers gaining citizenship for their smuggled fetus into the United States. That citizenship for a baby will only be apparent, when one of either parent is a U.S. citizen?

Brown stated huge cuts can be anticipated in schools through K-12, when the schools are crammed with the children of illegal aliens, then so be it; you cannot get blood from a stone anymore? No more taxes, no more money to encourage any longer illegal immigrants. It is simply rewarding the parents’ in law-breaking and just encourages more to cross borders of fly in by international flight. The federal government has failed to secure the U.S. borders and it’s become too costly to provide schooling, hospital care, low cost housing and other public services to non-citizens. So far only Arizona has had the backbone to fight back, with Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Utah closing the ranks. No more taxes for Jerry Brown’s state government specifically for illegal alien support. Join a local TEA PARTY and throw out all the politicians that are giving our country away. In furtherance last week introduced three bills by partisan Senators from designed at bringing more foreign STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) workers to the U.S. What the politicians and pressure groups have failed to inform is that there are qualified, U.S. workers out there to fill these jobs. Within the United States Colleges and Universities are graduating many young people in the past week with degrees and no employment offers in sight. It’s time American voters turned up the heat on politicians, specifically where job visas are concerned. When thousands are seeking work, shouldn’t American labor be a priority. It certainly will be given heightened attention under the growing numbers of TEA PARTY leadership, which are taking the reins of power in the Senate and House.

As usual, most of these local officials are useless twits. It isn't bad enough truckers have to pay outrageous fuel and maintenance cost. Now these twits want truckers go longer routes and use up more fuel. Guess who pays? Consumers! If prices on consumer products isn't bad enough; just wait. Prices will soar even higher. Are you willing to pay more? Think about it!!!!

Romney is a Vampire in Mormon Clothing… under his leadership, Bain gutted companies, sucking them dry and leaving families in shambles without work or a means to provide for their children. Is this the type of leader we want?
