SAVE Act

North Carolina Tentmaker · Nov 7, 2007

The Secure America with Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act was introduced in the U. S. congress on Nov 6th. Now this is a common sense approach (and my congressman is among the co-sponsors)

Here is a link to the Current Events story about it by Ericka Anderson:

From the story:

The Secure America with Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act targets employers with stiff penalties for hiring illegal aliens, secures the northern and southern border by adding 8,000 new border patrol agents and increases interior enforcement by allowing for additional federal district court judges and providing more resources for law enforcement officers. . .

Members addressed the issue of allowing illegal immigrant’s drivers licenses, contending that such an action would give individuals access to financial transactions and other activities requiring only an official ID. Issuing licenses -- like New York State will do -- creates a new gap in detecting illegal aliens’ residence in the US. . . .

With 44 Democrats and 41 Republicans spanning membership in the Congressional Black Caucus, the Hispanic Caucus, Immigration Caucus, the Republican Study Committee and the Blue Dog Coalition, sponsors said they expect the bill to move forward.

I don't think that either party wants to address the issue of the illegals in an election year. I predict that nothing will be done.

In my opinion, the best thing that could be done is to close the border with Mexico and with Canada to all illegal entry. This can be justified as a measure to prevent domestic infiltration by terrorists.

As for the illegals already here, those who are foolish enough to engage in criminal activities should be deported upon conviction after serving time. In this manner, we can sort through the huge illegal population.

Closing the Mexican and Canadian borders to illegal immigration would also force those two countries to deal with their own domestic economic and social problems.
