I live in Mississippi near most of the chicken processing plants that were raided about six months ago. Those plants have been mostly staffed by illegals since the late 1980's, everyone living around here knew they were all illegal, it was openly known. Mississippi has a law requiring E-verify yet it never managed to stop many thousands of illegals from working in these plants. The reason is that E-verify as it's set up now is almost useless because it doesn't actually allow you to check their identity, congress set it up so it could be easily end run by almost anyone, it's completely toothless.
The system is designed to be defrauded because the democrats want the illegals here in the knowledge that they & their descendents will change the demographics of the U.S. and produce almost guaranteed democratic voters. The republicans want them here because they're bought off by their chamber of commerce and big business buddies who want the cheap labor. That's blatantly evident by the fact that it was Republicans who got private business excluded in the Florida bill. That's just them giving back to their big business masters who pay for their vacation homes.
The reason we can't fix the immigration problem is because NO ONE other than the taxpayers who pay for this want to fix this crap.
Oh everify, I remember that.......wasn’t that the one that Obama did not pass
