If you are unhappy with the status quo. if you dont like the way things are today. then why would you oppose a change that at least offers the prospect that the new law will be enforced when we know the old law is not being adequately enforced? If you say: Lets just enforce the current law. I ask you. with regard to the employee verification system I just discussed. how can you enforce a law that is inherently not enforceable? You cant prosecute for fraud. you cant check the status of prospective employees. you cannot hold an employer liable because you cant prove that person knowingly hired the illegal immigrant. You cant enforce the existing law at the workplace. We have to change the law.
