Black Leadership Alliance Against Amnesty for Illgelals

[usmcstinger]

The Black American Leadership Alliance and other participants will call upon Congress to:

• Recognize the devastating effects illegal immigration and amnesty have on low-skilled workers, particularly those in minority communities;
• Enforce current immigration laws, and;
• Fulfill their duties to the millions of Americans struggling to find work by opposing amnesty and supporting policies to reduce overall levels of legal and illegal immigration, and to protect American jobs from irresponsible immigration legislation.

The sad fact is that every one of those black leaders knew that Obama would push illegal amnesty once he was re-elected and chose to support him anyway. He made amnesty one of his campaign promises. He had already instituted the DREAM Act by executive fiat. Those leaders expected that Republicans would save them from amnesty and are now stunned by the fact that Republicans seem to be pushing amnesty too.
They are correct though in understanding that amnesty will further devastate the black community. I think unemployment levels for black teens is about 46% currently, but Obama says we need to bring in MORE workers.
