I am extremely distressed that the House is now considering a bill. H.R. 7357. that beyond any doubt will result in renewed discrimination against minorities. on the basis of skin color and accentdespite the sincerest good wishes of the prime sponsors. Look at the question of employer sanctions. under this bill. any employer who hires an illegal alien faces a heavy fine. Well. how is one to know that a potential employee is. or is not. illegal? How is the employer to determine the validity of a green card? And where is the burden of proof? H.R. 7357 leaves it very unclear. Employer sanctions are a serious affront and threat to the civil rights of minorities. Employers are going to be extremely hesitant about hiring anyone who might look like an illegal alien. And who is it that might look like an illegal alien? These are not the white faces in this country. It is the Hispanics. the Chinese. and the Southeast Asians who will face very serious job discrimination under these sanctions.
Identified stereotypes
People who look like illegal aliens are Hispanics, Chinese, and Southeast Asians.
