Glad to see it happening. Need Riverside to jump on board as well, but doubt it’s going to happen.
..the Inland Empire is fighting back even if the rest of the state is in a coma...
it is very satisfying to go around to the different city councils and meet other Americans. These council members...not all not all...but most of them see what is happening and are happy to see that there is something they can do. It really really helps if you have a good size group and rally before the meeting because that reminds them that they have lots of support. Murrieta was considering it and then got cold feet when staff members urged them NOT to adopt E verify. They were worried about being sued. When we showed up and spoke (you are usually given 2-3 minutes to talk each, they lost their fears and voted unanimously for E Verify. I was surprised because 2 members seemed kinda weak....anyway we can help, especially Tedw, it is his baby. He can tell you how to organize a press conference too.
We went to the city council in Riverside be they were not ready yet! LOL Wait until all the illegals start pouring into their city from the other cities around them. Maybe the county supervisors...do you live there? Maybe we could work together on the supervisors.
Some cities in northern calif. are asking for advice now too! Anyone can try it and we will tell you the secrets. Only if you are in 10th circuit court of appeal will you have a problem.
The only problem I have with E-Verify, and yes, I use it in my company, is that it only verifies that the name and number given are ok to work, not that the person giving the number is ok.
Illegals are notorious for idendity theft.
But it’s a heck of a start.
Good stuff!
The county supervisors do not have to live in the city of Riverside. The city council rules the city.
It is true what your saying. However, E-verify is improving all the time and is now including a photo tool sometimes which DOES check person.
Anyway, even if it only catches 50% of the illegals showing phony documents, it is better than what we have now which is nothing.
Hi, glad to see you. molon labe
Yeah, it is mighty satisfying to DO SOMETHING! lOL And I am finding out these city council members are a pretty good lot. They are in a unique position to make a big difference in the newly socialized America, and they seem to rise up to meet the challenge.
Also, it acts a a deterrent because signs have to be posted in each company saying they E Verify and discourages people from trying.
I grew up not to far from Murrieta, CA. ... Lake Elsinore... ;)
Molon Labe!
Great news!
Actually if you read the 10 th circuit case closely,E-verify can still be required in 10th circuit states. Anyway, the Supreme Court will rule in the spring.
I have no doubt that the Conservative Court will uphold the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals decision. The 9th Circus Court of Appeal is far more liberal and couldn’t find anything wrong with the law. The Supremes are going to rebuke the Obama administration.
A link to the 9th Circuit decision can be found at this website:

I'm glad governmental entities are starting to wise up. The majority of legal Americans are rabidly against illegal immigrants. I can't understand what part of "illegal" that certain groups are missing.
(Shakes head)
..cut out LA county and the Bay Area and CA would be OK
“..cut out LA county and the Bay Area and CA would be OK”
Yep! My county in Calif. is more conservative than just about anywhere you can find. In fact, we refer to ourselves as ‘the State of Jefferson’ just to distance ourselves from the liberal run cities.
You guys up there ought to get some of your local city councils or even the county supervisors on board with e-verify. Its not that hard to do.
WE CAN TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK.!
