Well. let me give you another number. Three hundredplus illegals are sitting in prison today because an employer in Iowa did not use the EVerification system before hiring them. And if you dont care about illegal immigration. and you say you care about immigrants coming to this country illegally. and you want to be humanitarian. then require the people that are exploiting them to check through EVerification as a mandate. not a voluntary. so that future illegals that come into this country are not put in prison because their employer didnt check that the name and the Social Security Number matched. I wish this town would act on its verbiage and its promises half as much as they expect the American people to respond to the responsibilities of citizenship. As Members of Congress. we are now placed at having to vote for a 5year extension rather than a 10. and we are denied the ability by the Speaker of the House to vote on a bill that is bipartisan. and able to address this issue.
