We need worker IDs — e.g. Social Security cards. I hate paperwork, but employers need to check worker IDs for all workers and fill out the paperwork; and the government needs to make sure employers are checking and impose a huge fine if they are discovered to be hiring illegals.

With no (or little) work available for illegals, fewer would come here and the fewer undocumenteds there are, the fewer who would vote illegaly.

“A lot of people don’t know that jury invitations are taken from voter pools, so some illegals show up.”

That brings up a completely different problem. How many verdicts are tainted because non-citizens were on the jury?

They need to rapidly deport as many as possible.

Tainted verdicts:

Again, from the John Fund National Review article:

excerpt:
In declining to cooperate with a request by Maryland for information on the citizenship status of registered voters, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service mistakenly declared that the agency could not release that data because “it is important to safeguard the confidentiality of each legal immigrant.” One result of this policy: In 2004, a guilty verdict in a murder trial in Maryland was jeopardized because a non-citizen was discovered on the jury, which had been drawn from local voter rolls. Maryland’s frustrated elections administrator complained, “There is no way of checking. . . . We have no access to any information about who is in the United States, legally or otherwise.”
