The U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia is being urged to look into a charge that Herndon officials have violated federal criminal conspiracy laws by creating a day-labor center that helps illegal aliens. U.S. Attorney Paul J. McNulty has received from Rep. Tom Tancredo, Colorado Republican, a letter accusing Herndon officials of conspiracy in seeking to aid illegal aliens, the congressman's office said. In his letter, Mr. Tancredo noted that officials for Project Hope and Harmony -- a group of community leaders and churches that will operate Herndon's day-labor center -- have refused to screen job seekers based on their legal status in the country.

Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit on behalf of a group of Herndon residents against the Town of Herndon on September 1, 2005. Both federal and state law prohibits the Town of Herndon from committing public funds and resources in order to facilitiate the illegal employment of undocumented aliens. 8 U.S.C. § 1324 describes the criminal penalties of "bringing in and harboring certain aliens" while 8 U.S.C. § 1324a discusses the "unlawful employment of aliens." Also see Va. Code 63.2-503.1 which provides that "no person who is not a United States Citizen or legally present in the United States shall receive state or local public assistance."

I hope they seek damages. I'd love to see these politicians have to pay money out to legal citizens.

I'd love to see these politicians have to pay money out to legal citizens.Especially if the money comes from their own pockets. It'd be neat to also get money from Project Hope and Harmony and "the group of community leaders and churches that will operate Herndon's day-labor center".
