LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Send the invaders home
Why does the White House believe that insulting our intelligence is the way to ram an amnesty bill past the overwhelming opposition of the American people?
The Washington Times reports that President Bush wants to resurrect the immigration bill that fell apart last week ("Reid presses Bush over GOP votes," Page 1, Tuesday). It should be called the "Terrorist Welcome Mat Bill." Under the "grand bargain," any terrorist can enter the U.S. at any time, file two forged affidavits that he was here before Jan. 1 and instantly receive the right to live in the United States by securing the new Z visa and steal a job from an American citizen. Citizenship and Immigration Services has a 10-year backlog on some green-card applications, yet it will have just 24 hours to process the Z visas. Once 24 hours have passed, a terrorist cannot be denied, stopped, questioned or deported. And this Z visa goes into effect without any border enforcement.
As an attorney, I have sat with debtors unable to pay their debts because illegal aliens drove their painting or contracting companies out of business. There are no "jobs Americans won't do." One-quarter of those working in agriculture are estimated to be illegal trespassers — that is, 75 percent of such workers are not illegal aliens.
Advocates are blackmailing us. They will keep Americans in danger until we agree to import cheap labor to undercut our own jobs. They want us to choose between safety and salary.
It is Mr. Bush's constitutional duty to enforce the law. Under existing law, employers should be enriching the Treasury by paying massive fines. The Social Security Administration knows about abuse of Social Security numbers and should start investigating and prosecuting the identity theft upon which illegal aliens depend. Once the jobs dry up, invaders will go home, as they did under President Eisenhower. JON MOSELEY Secure America Alliance Alexandria
