That most important part of what you said, is if she couldn't work here. The only way you will see anything change is if you go after the employer.
And I should have said, law that are being enforced at the moment would not have saved her life.
They also need to make penalities for employers who hire illegals, harsher.
Politicians do not have the balls to go after the employers. Might cut off campaign contributions.
As I have said before make it a notable per day per illegal working fine on employers.
maybe 2,000 per day per illegal. That would make it not profitable.
And perhaps include a 10% reward for reporting violators.
Guaranteed no more problems with illegals working if enforced.
When I found someone was using my SSN to work for a construction company in central Washington, I called the employer, of course they knew nothing about it. I also called a few other organization including the IRS and gave them the name of the company. No one ever did anything regarding the company.
You did not call Fox news? They would have been all over it.
