Pull all those free checks and the “unwilling” will become willing or starve.

Not only is it wrong to give our jobs to illegals when so many Americans are unemployed but in what universe does the chamber think those illegals will continue to work for nothing once they have amnesty?

Oh, I get it. Currently employed illegals get amnesty to ease their transition to welfare etc. - won’t even need to steal our IDs to do that anymore - while even more millions pour over the border to take the jobs that current illegals will be quitting.

Seems the last bunch of illegals made legal isn’t ‘qualified’ either. The unemployment rate among Hispanics is sky high. Right behind blacks.

Why not hire them?

The reason is this has NOTHING TO DO WITH jobs and everything to so with ‘slavery lite’, getting more democrats on the rolls and keeping wages down for the sake of liberal elites.

It’s ugly - too bad there aren’t any old fashioned newspapers that could look into this... Eff the New York Times and Washington Post... and all the fools who write for them. (Oh, and blind old Larry King of CNN)

This is perverted - rewarding criminals for breaking our laws. It’s like something out of a dystopian novel.

CEO T.J. Donahue makes no sense. Does anybody know about his background that would cause him to sprout this nonsense? I presume he has no criminal record.

I do not recall where I heard that increasing number of businesses are withdrawing from the Chamber of Commerce. Does anybody know if it is true?

There may be another aspect the comments are missing. The illegals will not be paid minimum wage. Cheap labor.

There are no jobs Americans won't do.
There is, however, a wage level and standard of living Americans won't tolerate, nor should we.

You can't speak, read, or write English is one big disqualifier. Not having basic math skills is another. There are others, like being an addict, having a criminal record, or weighing 400 lbs., but the first two are the main ones.

and bringing hordes of illegals solves this problem...how?
