I also believe that these sanctions bring us closer to a national identification system and brings todays 1984 closer to Mr. Orwells 1984. Apart from objections on civil liberties grounds. the ID system could cost billions of dollars and thousands of staff years. Employer sanctions are treating a symptom. not a cause. What we really need is a substantial increase in the number of immigration enforcement officers and investigators. especially along our Nations borders. and full enforcement of existing labor laws. In closing I would just like to bring the attention of our colleagues to the May 28 issue of People magazine which carried an article about a neighborhood in Silvis. Ill.. in my district called Hero Street.
