A DHS spokesperson [Brian Roehrkasse] told Frontpagemag.com that Ridge did not mention any "amnesty" program. "The Secretary said that we've got to come to grips with reality that there are 8-13 million people and that they will have to have some sort of legal status as we go through the accounting of determining who may pose a potential threat to us.

They do not "have to have some sort of legal status". Deporting them eliminates any need to find out whether or not they "pose a potential threat to us".

DHS already knows that illegal aliens are willing to break the law. What they can't ever determine is how just how many more laws the illegals are willing to break. Give 'em the boot!

I think our priority needs to be on providing employers with easy access to the workplace verification system so they can easily verify someones information. Then crack down hard on those who hire illegals using existing law.


Encourage congress to start cutting off federal funding to any states counties or cities that have some form of recognition for matriculas or local amnesty for illegals along the lines of what Rep. Tancredo proposed re: cutting of highway funding to Calif. if they allowed drivers licenses for illegals.

Work to prevent allowing illegals access to social benefits at any level. In most states it is already against the law, so it would be up to citizens of those states to call for their local government to cut off access illegals are getting to social services.

Punish banks or other financial institutions that recognize matriculas to establish accounts, credit, loans etc.


Put more resources on those parts of border where illegals are still crossing in large numbers.
