California AG threatens to prosecute businesses that help in immigration sweeps. New California Declares Independence From Rest Of State...
California employers assisting Immigration and Customs Enforcement in a reported widespread immigration crackdown will be prosecuted, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said on Thursday. His warning comes amid reports that U.S. immigration agents were planning mass sweeps targeting illegal immigrants within the Northern California communities. Under the states new Immigration Worker Protection Act, businesses and employers providing information about employees to immigration authorities could face fines of up to $10,000, The Sacramento Bee reported.
Immigration and naturalization are powers of the federal government, clearly stated in Article 1, Section 8 of our Constitution.
I think its well within Federal powers to with hold federal
funds from California.
That does not trample on states rights
Prosecute California for prosecuting employers who help immigration sweeps.
Didn't the DHS request that of the DOJ?
Has Sessions responded?
I've heard that Sessions was at least good on illegal immigration. Well?
Sorry to JimRob and all other Freeper brothers and sisters who live in that sh*thole state. It isn't much better in Washingtonistan.
California AG needs to lawyer up big tome another I make the law idiot par for Ca.
I agree - doesnt mean you couldnt pass an amendment.
It's hard for me to believe that I once worked hard to get them elected. I scoffed at those who said they were as bad as the Democrats. I've learned my lesson. I will NEVER vote for any of them again.
I would love to be the lawyer filing that federal false arrest lawsuit.
>>>Why are employers employing illegal immigrants in the first place?
Because slavery was outlawed a while back and illegals are the next best thing to free labor.
Illegals comprise the majority of every low-skill to medium-skill level job in every industry in California. Then they ‘migrate’ out to the rest of the country.
I witnessed this first hand in the aerospace manufacturing industry. THOUSANDS of sub-contractor businesses. Its sickening what business owners knowingly do to pocket more profits by exploiting desperate illegals from $h!thole mexico.
