What We Really Have Is An Illegal Employer Problem
The plain fact is that until Ronald Reagan called off enforcement of our labor laws we didn't have an immigration problem. The amnesty of 1986, combined with his attacks on the power of labor unions, turned a migrant population into permanent residents, taking what used to be good union jobs away from American citizens.
Under George Bush the situation has grown dramatically worse as work site enforcement has dropped 95%, and the number of employers prosecuted and fines against them have dropped to almost nothing. THAT'S our problem, friends. There is no fence that can seal our borders as long as there are employers scoffing at the law to hire people who shouldn't be here.
