A member of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights advised the Congressional Black Caucus on Tuesday to oppose amnesty legislation backed by President Barack Obama and Democrats because it threatens to further devastate the employment opportunities for black Americans.
Commissioner Peter Kirsanow, in his individual capacity as a member of the eight-member commission, wrote to Rep. Marcia Fudge (R-OH), the chair of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), and said that amnesty would "disproportionately harm lower-skilled African-Americans" whose economic conditions have already gotten worse under America's first black president.
He asked members of the CBC to "oppose any legislation that would grant any form of work authorization to illegal aliens" and "oppose legislation that would increase the overall number of guest workers admitted to the U.S. each year."
Reports have documented the surplus of labor in the high-tech industry that is depressing wages, and there is also a huge surplus in more lower-skilled jobs.
"The obvious question is whether there are sufficient jobs in the low-skilled labor market for both African-Americans and illegal immigrants," Kirsanow wrote. "The answer is no."

Repeat the tagline.
..because a large percentage of the black community does NOT want jobs!
His argument the only way we're gonna avoid an amnesty disaster.
Don’t worry, they are liberal Democrats first and foremost.
Even if that were true for some, there still is no need for 20 million new foreign workers.
Liberal politics in general hurt black workers.
The members of the black caucus are the source of many problems among blacks.
In this case, there is no financial gain in doing the right thing for blacks or anyone else. There is potential for lots of financial gain for them in amnesty.
NSS!
They don’t care.
They know their constituency will vote for them anyway.
They know it gives the Dems more voters in the long run, which means more POWER......................
Amnesty takes aways jobs from “American” workers - white, black, brown, yellow, whatever. These illegal mexicans will take jobs from mexican/latino americans as well. So the race is immaterial. The key word is “American”.
It’s not about helping black workers.
It’s about obeying their socialist overlords.
Modern day California is the example. From Red State to Blue State and bankrupt within 20+ years.
Uh oh...trouble down on the plantation.
Democratic Party Fears Realized as Young Black Males Defect to GOP
Marcia Fudge is a 'Rat. That should be a D.

Read that this morning.
I've got news for the Black Caucus. If you think rednecks are racists..... talk to some hispanic grandmothers.... and their little gang banging teen age relatives. This is going to be just like Iran and Iraq.
