This may temporarily slow down remittances.
Long-term it will cause the creation of underground money-transfer operations, probably controlled by the cartels.
All they have to do is price their services lower than the tax and they will be the money transfer vehicle of choice.
The problem is going to get worse, not better.
How about we try a modest tax, say 5%, low enough that the security of a legitimate money transfer organization is worth the tax?
Don’t forget china in the mix. I know of illegals that send thousands of dollars to chine every month.
china charges $25,000 for tourist visas and the “tourists” have to find jobs here to pay the chinese government back as their families are basically held hostage until paid off.
The only plus side is very few chinese ever apply for welfare. They like to work.
YES!!!
YES!!!
Cash remittances are not acceptable any longer;
Banks must verify the account and account holder as the sender.
FINALLY!!!! we see these check cashing wire transfer shops all over catering to the illegal populations in the areas. Our tax money doled out to these invaders by our criminal politicians are being sent back to thier home land.

As said there will always be illegals trying to get to the US.....however what we’ve been seeing these past years isn’t just illegals wanting to get here...it’s far more than that.
like it, and surround san diego, with the army and declare we are bringing back the rule of law, and deport all illegals, next announce the army will be doing this in every town an city in america, if they leave on their own, we give bus transportation, if we have to catch them they o 2 years hard time building the wall in a desert camp..after the illegals see the army cleaning out san diego watch the exodus, if you are illegal you are illegal, no explanations needed, no drivers licenses, no voting cards, no social security..illegal must be illegal again..
no deals, get out
