If they weren't working they wouldn't be eligible for comp------easy!

The basic deal that workers comp makes is that the employer is required to carry workers comp insurance for its employees and in return, the employees give up their right to sue for negligence.
If this law gets passed, then illegal alien employees who are injured on the job would then be able to sue their employer. The fact that the employee has illegal status is a separate issue with no bearing on the negligent tort.
Am I right? This bill would seem to be a trial lawyer's dream.
Illegals = Criminals = Jail = Deportation
There are enough republicans in Baltimore county to elect a representative? Who knew?
ROFL... Here's a solution:
Automatically give any illegal twice the worker's compensation from injury, with the employer paying anywhere from 50-100% of the compensation directly.

Brother of men charged in double murder to be deported
Thursday, September 22, 2005
By Daniel Duggan
Staff writerA brother of two men charged with a double murder last week in Oak Lawn is being held by federal authorities for being in the country illegally.
Pedro Maya, whose younger brothers Edan and David were charged with Friday's killings, was deported in 2002 on a drug conviction but had re-entered the United States, authorities said.
Police said they found Pedro Maya hiding when they entered a house Friday on Chicago's Southwest Side in search of his brothers, who were charged Sunday with the murders of two co-workers at Frankie's Beef and Pasta, 5721 W. 95th St.
Pedro Maya, 31, was taken into custody because he also worked at Frankie's and was hiding when police arrived, Oak Lawn police Division Chief Bill Villanova said. He said Pedro Maya was not at the restaurant at the time of the fatal shootings Friday morning.
"We interviewed him, and we didn't have enough information to charge him with a crime," Villanova said.
But a background check of Pedro Maya revealed that he had been deported and was not supposed to be in the United States, and police notified U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which arrested him, Villanova said.
The deportation was part of Maya's sentence on a 1999 drug trafficking charge, ICE spokeswoman Gail Montenegra said.
In February 2000, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to possess cocaine with intent to sell it, according to federal court records. He was sent to prison, released in 2002 and deported to Mexico, records show.
"He did not have permission from the attorney general (to return)," Montenegra said.
Montenegra said Maya may be returned to prison for violating the terms of his probation, but a decision has not been made.
Edan Maya, 20, is being held without bond on first-degree murder charges in the deaths of co-workers Jose Rodriguez, 21, of Worth, and Carlos Flores-Lopez, 27, of Alsip, who were shot while working at Frankie's on Friday morning.
Authorities said Edan Maya conspired with his brother David, 18, and a friend, Flugencio Osorio, 20, in the murder plot. They said Edan was angry that Flores-Lopez was given his job at Frankie's while he was away for several weeks in Mexico.
Police do not know of immigration problems with the other Maya brothers and Osorio, Villanova said.
