McCaskill - Sen. Talent Supports Amnesty for Illegal Employers

Claire McCaskill outlined an aggressive proposal to increase border security and institute stricter regulations on employers that exploit illegal immigrants for cheap labor. McCaskill said it was outrageous for the Administration and Congress to have failed to fully fund Border Patrol agents until an election year. Due to their negligence, there are now 12 million undocumented workers in the United State. A security fence and increased surveillance are only the first steps to addressing this crisis.

McCaskill pointed out that Senator Jim Talent supports amnesty for employers who give American jobs to illegal immigrants based on his issue position and record. Talent is listed as the number one Senator to fund by five big agricultural corporations, including Tyson Foods Inc., with ties to hiring illegal workers and, as a result, Talent has allowed illegal immigration enforcement to go by the wayside. McCaskill outlined her plan to crack down on those who violate our laws.

well done Ms. McCaskill!

I think going after employers is the best tact. It may take some time to do but so did acquiring 12 million illegal border crossers.

This is the right approach on the issue, not deportation and race baiting and worker against worker bullshit.
