WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's the MAN!!!!!

THIS should flush out the birds from the bushes!!!!!

I think this is a sound idea from Cong Tancredo. Glad to see Tancredo advancing conservative policy in the GOP controlled House. Any legislation that properly curbs illegal immigration is worthy of support. We'll see how much support this bill gets, above and beyond the House Immigration Reform Caucus.

In addition, the side effect of driving the open borders/amnesty crowd of liberals and libertarians totally bonkers, delights me to no end.

Very unreasonable to have to show ID to vote. /sarcasm

[Dante3]

This bill is essential.

[carlo3b]

Finally something by this grandstander that I can get behind.. Our Republic depends on a fair vote, it never has had one, and it is long overdue.. However, whats with the graduating penalty, it should be 100% loss of all federal funds, immediate and in total..

[RinaseaofDs]

Amen to this bill.

[lost_sovereignty]

Only U.S. citizens are legally qualified to vote. But that hasn’t stopped what is believed to be a widespread practice of voter fraud.

OH COME ON... THATS "RACIST" !!!!!!



/SARCASM OFF

Leading forger of counterfeit identity documents arrested in Mexico

By Dave Montgomery

Knight Ridder Newspapers

WASHINGTON - The fugitive leader of a major document-forging ring that allegedly supplied bogus identity papers to millions of illegal immigrants over the past two decades has been arrested in Mexico, federal officials announced Monday.

Pedro Castorena is accused of heading the family-run enterprise that's dominated the document-forging industry in the United States since the late 1980s, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

He was listed as one of ICE's most wanted fugitives after a federal grand jury in Denver indicted him nearly a year ago on charges of conspiracy, fraud, misuse of visas and money laundering.

The indictment identified Castorena, 42, as a founding member of the Castorena Family Organization, CFO, which ICE said controls bogus document operations in more than 30 states. A Knight Ridder article last month described the CFO network.

"The arrest of Pedro Castorena is a landmark achievement that deals a serious blow to one of the largest fraudulent-document organizations in the United States," said Julie Myers, the Department of Homeland Security's Assistant Secretary for ICE.

Mexican authorities arrested Castorena, who's also known as Castorena-Ibarra, on Saturday night in Guadalajara without incident, ICE officials said. ICE agents based at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City assisted in the arrest.

Castorena had two counterfeit Mexican identification documents under an assumed name, agents said. He was taken to Mexico City and is awaiting extradition to the United States.

ICE has arrested more than 50 CFO figures in a series of investigations over the past six years, but officials believe the organization is still operating in more than a dozen major U.S. cities. Its profits are thought to total tens of millions of dollars, if not billions.

It's about f*in time! Heck, you need a photo ID to rent a DVD, but not to vote?
Expect the demonrats to fight this tooth and nail. I'm convinced the only reason they're still a viable national party is because they mine the illegal voting block.
