CPAC 2015’s Conservative View of Immigration Focused on “Consensus”

If illegals who refuse to assimilate do not come to the United States for welfare, why have so many received over $4.1 billion in earned income tax credit

“We are not a nation of immigrants, we are a nation of citizens.” - Mark Levine to CPAC

Among the glitz and conservative rhetoric of CPAC 2015, one important panel discussion was barely attended by 40-50 people – “Immigration: Can Conservatives Reach a Consensus?” It is in my estimation an issue that is going to fundamentally alter the makeup of our society forever.

The panel was moderated by Charlie Gerow of Quantum Communications and consisted of three panelists: Representative Jeff Duncan (SC-3), Alfonso Aguilar of the American Principles Project and Mario Lopez of the Hispanic Leadership Fund.

Alfonso Aguilar presented an argument for a conservative solution that respects the rule of law and focuses on border security but recognizes the need that our economy has for foreign workers, dealing at the same time with “the undocumented population without doing amnesty.” Amnesty, in his view, and self-deportation that does not work, are “false choices.”

Why don’t we throw out all of the H1Bs, illegals and their spawn, drag them out of the jobs they are taking from American citizens, get rid of them.

Then, if there is a true need, here and there we can allow legal guest workers to come in and fill the slots as needed for a specific period of time. The employers need to be able to prove that after verifiable exhaustive efforts they need a guest worker to fill the position.

After a five year period, the employer must make another exhaustive effort to hire citizens to do the work and if qualified citizens are found, the guest worker will train the new employee before being sent to their home country.

The employer will be required hire based on only the knowledge and skills base required for the position and not shotgun unreasonable requirements meant to shut out qualified citizens; under penalty of a heavy fine.

That’s where the consensus should be.
