I don't understand the counter argument. How is this political when the same politicians are welcoming such illegal immigration, giving them free stuff they don't even give Americans and refuse to fix the problem?
It's honestly mind boggling that anyone who openly supports Sanctuary Cities would be against this idea. It makes perfect sense. The places that want illegal immigration and defend them can now have an unlimited supply. Other communities that don't want lawlessness and breaching of their sovereignty will be void of it.
Well, I live in a sanctuary city and although I relish the irony, I want Trump to fix the problem, NOT MAKE IT WORSE. Punish sanctuary cities by taking away government funding in other ways...anything that would stick it to liberals we don't want legitimizing illegals. I don't know, make it mandatory to hire people that have a real actual birth certificate, identity . Births certificates, ( Have one) DNA fingerprints ....a national identity card. Why do people have a problem with that?
How about punishing the people who hire illegals. They wouldn't come if nobody would hire them.
There is a system called "e-verify", but it's not mandatory for employers to use it. Obama was filing charges against employers who hire illegals, but Trump hasn't filed a single charge against an employer, only the illegals working for them. Of course Trump hires illegals so why would he punish someone for doing what he does.
In Canada, we have a strict verification system for social insurance numbers, and employers are fined $10,000 if they don't have a copy of your social insurance card in your employment file. Even if you are a citizen. When an employer submits your withholding, if Revenue Canada can't match the name and the SIN, they contact the employer, and get it sorted. In the USA, if they can't match the name on the witholding to the SS, the government does nothing.
Good grief, you need to educate yourself so you don’t spread lies.

You must be one of those that get their talking points and don’t erase arch the crap you spew.
Now runaway because you been caught again with misinformation.
I searched also to refute his point, but was bothered that, like you, only found articles dated last year. I wish this was more of a focus. As well as enforcing laws against giving them benefits. And what about folks that rent or sell them housing accommodations?
I completely agree with going after their employers. Remember when Clinton couldn't fill out his cabinet because it seemed all of them were using illegal nannies?
ZOE BAIRD – President Bill Clinton’s first nominee for attorney general withdrew in 1993 after it was learned that the $500,000-a-year corporate lawyer employed an illegal immigrant Peruvian couple to provide nanny services for her son and chauffeur her around and didn’t pay the required Social Security taxes for them.
KIMBA WOOD – Amazingly, just two weeks later, Wood, a federal judge in New York who was expected to be Clinton’s second choice for attorney general, withdrew her name. She admitted her baby sitter of seven years had been in the country illegally when hired in March 1986.
CHARLES RUFF – After Baird and Wood, this Washington lawyer and former Justice Department official was removed from Clinton’s “short list” of candidates for deputy attorney general after it was learned he failed to pay Social Security taxes for a woman who did domestic work for him over the previous eight years.
RON BROWN – Clinton’s then-newly confirmed commerce secretary acknowledged in 1993 he had not paid Social Security taxes for a woman who cleaned his house for five years. He scurried to pay the back taxes and penalties and remained in office.
FEDERICO PENA – Like Brown, Pena had already been confirmed as to his post, transportation secretary in this case, when the Baird case prompted him to acknowledge he failed to pay Social Security taxes for the caretaker of his two children.
SHIRLEY S. CHATER – Chater, the president of Texas Woman’s University was Clinton’s nominee to head the Social Security Administration when the White House disclosed on Aug. 3, 1993, that she failed to pay Social Security taxes for Nanny of 6 years. She paid the back taxes before her nomination, and she was confirmed.
BOBBY RAY INMAN – The retired Navy admiral withdrew in January 1994 as Clinton’s nominee to be defense secretary. He failed to pay required Social Security taxes for his housekeeper until just after Clinton nominated him.
STEPHEN BREYER – When Breyer was a nominee for the Supreme Court in mid-1994, it was disclosed that the then-chief judge of the U.S. 1st Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston had failed to pay Social Security taxes for a man who worked in his house for 13 years. Breyer paid the overdue taxes. He was confirmed as a justice of the high court.
MICHAEL P.C. CARNS – The retired Air Force general withdrew in March 1995 as Clinton’s nominee to head the Central Intelligence Agency as he acknowledged failing to make promised payments to a Filipino youth who had worked for the Carns family as a household helper overseas and whom Carns had legally brought into this country when he was transferred back. Brought him back from the Philippines as an "employee" and then "forgot" to pay him at all!
It's like we have two Americas or something. One where there are laws we have to carefully follow and another where you do whatever the hell you want and if you get caught you just pay what should have already paid.
Trump absolutely should dump these illegals in Sanctuary Cities, except that hours after he made this threat the 9th Circus panel overruled the district judge's decision, so now these folks can again wait in Mexico for their hearings. Seems like he caught their attention, and they were right to assume he damn well wasn't bluffing.
