Amnesty Threat via "Reconciliation" Bill; Counter"Need Immigrant workers" Deception--BALANCE ALERT
There are over 36 MILLION! Illegals in the USA and that
number is growing by over 200,000/month as Illegals from over 150 countries
flood into the USA. Hundreds are testing positive for Covid.every
month And that Illegal Alien flood is largely managed
for profits by The Drug Running and Child Trafficking Cartels. Our public
health and public safety environments are in increasing danger.
Yet the Open Borders crowd wants to give all these Illegals
not only Amnesty, but also a path to Citizenship and voting!
And of course all this is not only
a threat to our Natural Environment (do we have adequate water and housing??!!
It also threatens our Economic environment.
A new report from the Center for Immigration Studies
highlights the added cost to Social Security and Medicare that would result
from any bill passed by the U.S. Congress providing legal status and a path to
citizenship to illegal immigrants. Under current law, illegal immigrants are
net contributors to Social Security and Medicare because they partially pay
into entitlement programs but cannot legally receive benefits. By granting
eligibility for benefits, however, amnesty would transform illegal immigrants
from net contributors into net beneficiaries, imposing steep costs on the
Social Security and Medicare trust funds. And yet the Biden administration
wants to admit an additional mainly unvetted Afghans at an additional
multi-Billion $ cost !It’s extraordinarily expensive
to resettle a refugee in the United States.
They get free health care. They get free education. They get
free housing. They get free food. They get cash welfare,” Stephen Miller.In addition, the Open Borders crowd is trying to ram
through the following:
The American Dream and Promise Act (H.R. 6) would grant
amnesty to approximately 2.9 million illegal aliens who claim to have entered
the country at the age of 18 or younger and meet other requirements. AND would
also grant an amnesty to approximately 320,000 illegal aliens who received
Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
These House Reps. also pushed through to The Senate
The Farm Workforce Modernization Act (H.R. 1603) which would
grant amnesty to more than 1 million alien farmworkers AND their family
members, all ultimately eligible for Citizenship. Just as troubling, it would
also replace the existing agriculture guest worker program with a new one.
Farmers would be able to sponsor guest workers, and if they
work a certain number of hours over a set period of time
the workers could receive a green card.
Together, the two bills would grant amnesty to more than 5
million illegal aliens while doing nothing to prevent the kind of massive
border surges that Border Patrol agents currently face as
well the House Reps. passed to the Senate the Citizenship for Essential
Workers Act (H.R 1909, S747) to the Senate. It would create a pathway to
Citizenship for Millions of "Essential" workers. Among those included
would be farmworkers, meatpackers, nurses, janitors, construction workers,
grocery store clerks, truck drivers, restaurant cooks, domestic workers, home
health care aides, emergency first responders, all competing down the wages and
job opportunities for American workers.
ACT NOW;
Tell your representatives you Oppose all the Amnesty bills
and insist they re-implement all the Trump policies re the Border and re: Legal
Immigration Demand that our National Legislators enact an
all-categories-included zero Net Moratorium on Legal Immigration and to stop
subsidizing LEGAL immigration with the $330 Billion that American Taxpayers
already spend every year to subsidize it — that is $758 Million/year* Net per
Congressional District for the 1.5 Million plus immigrants admitted legally
each year. (400,000/year into California alone annually) prior to the Biden
Executive Orders.
See CCN's study of the Net Costs of Immigration at
carryingcapacity.org the upcoming "Reconciliation" budget bill has
not been finalized,but is
expected to include a pathway to citizenship for millions of undocumented
immigrants in their initial proposal. Unfortunately
it is now clear that the "Reconciliation" bill will be considered by
the Senate.
The budget reconciliation rules prevent Republicans from
blocking the package with a filibuster, meaning Democrats can win passage in
the Senate just on Democratic votes if they are unified. The party cannot
afford a single defection.
While the immigration wish list was expected to be a source
of friction between progressives and moderates, it has until now been a
relatively uncontroversial subject, with moderate Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.)
signaling earlier support.
Still, the size of the budget bill, which progressives want
to be as high as $3.5 to $5 trillion, is hotly debated, and talks on that point
could drag other issues onto the negotiating table. And the Senate
parliamentarian has yet to rule on whether immigration provisions, or which
immigration provisions, are eligible for inclusion in a budget bill.
Democratic leaders are prepping for a multistep process in
negotiating with the parliamentarian to convince her of the budgetary impact of
granting immigration benefits.
Meanwhile, certain elected officials influenced by the
"Cheap Labor Lobby" are pushing for Democratic leaders not to cede on
immigration when negotiations on the budget heat up.
Another Negative consequence of Mass Immigration:
Average Americans have responded to declining opportunity
generated in large part by immigrant worker competition by having fewer babies.
The transition to below-replacement level family size began
for whites in the middle 1970s. It began for blacks in the mid-1990s. Hispanic
fertility rates are also on a down-trend as this demographic responds to the
realities of the labor market.
As always, Americans will respond to prosperity and the expectation
of continuing prosperity by marrying earlier and raising their desired family
size. But what will achieve the continued prosperity that could set off another
"baby boom"?
The best answer is stop mass immigration. Well established
results from independent studies [see Population Politics, 1993; The Vanishing
American Dream, 2016; and various articles] show that immigration negatively
impacts the labor market so far as American workers are concerned. Whatever are
the labor force characteristics of immigrants, the Americans with matching
labor force characteristics find their employment opportunities becoming less
favorable as immigrants swell labor force numbers. Employers
love this. But employers don't have babies. Individual Americans would, if they
thought they could afford the cost.
A related question is whether the United States needs either
more babies or more immigrants. Has the US population exceeded the long-term
carrying capacity already?
If not, explain please why the southwest suffers
periodically from droughts?
Why the water table of major aquifers, like the Ogallala, is
dropping so that many agricultural areas are withering rather than being
adequately irrigated?
And why the shower head in a major Denver hotel trickles
water from only six of its many little holes? And why the topsoil strata in
Iowa has shrunk from a rich 12 feet to less than one
foot in many agricultural areas?
Environmental consequence: For every person added to the
U.S. population one acre of prime farmland or natural habitat (for critters) is
converted to developed uses... Pimentel et. al. Cornell
EMPLOYMENT CONSEQUENCES
i. CCN Study — 5.9 MILLION AMERICANS HAVE BEEN DISPLACED
from JOBS SINCE 2005 by IMMIGRANT WORKERS. See www.carryingcapacity.org.
ii. Confirmed by two other studies, e.g., by Professor of
Computer Science, U.C. Davis, Norm Matloff Blog,
“Vast Majority of H1B and related visa hires are Cheap Labor Hires”
iii. And by Economist Ed Rubenstein writing for
vdare.com. And this displacement occurred before the displacement caused
by the Economic damage caused by the pandemic. There is no shortage of American
Workers! See recent Immigrant Employment Data from CIS.org in CCN’s previous
Alerts.
And perhaps the greatest Deception is that the USA needs an
increasing Population to increase the GDP. But while an increasing
population MAY increase aggregate GDP it ALWAYS DECREASES Per Capita GDP and
PER CAPITA GDP is one of the Best Tests of the Economic Health of a Population
or a Nation.
Incredibly, Biden's Department of Homeland Security has
proposed a new rule that would allow frontline officers -- instead of
immigration supervisors and judges -- to serve as the judge and jury for people
claiming asylum at the border.
Our view is that the purpose of the rule is to make it
faster and easier for anybody claiming asylum to be allowed into the country
and given work permits without testing whether they really have a claim for
asylum.
The rule would create the worst-case situation for American
workers who have to compete with the people allowed
across the border. If the frontline officers grant passage, there is no appeal
by the public to review the case and protect American workers from fraudulent
asylum claims. But if the frontline officers rule
against passage, those applicants CAN appeal the decision. The proposed rule is
designed to move as many foreign workers as possible into the U.S. labor
markets as quickly as possible.
By the time you read this the open borders crowd's attempt
to add an Amnesty and path to Citizenship (and voting!) for the 30 Million plus Illegals in the USA to the Budget
Reconciliation Bill may have passed. If not call your Reps and tell them NO! NO
WAY!!
Instead tell them you want them to support Rep.
Gosar's(R.Az.) Moratorium
Bill Rep. Paul Gosar has introduced a bill to put a
ten year moratorium on LEGAL AND ILLEGAL immigration to the United States
.H.R.1883 would enact a moratorium on all immigration, build the wall,
prioritize securing the Southern border, repeal certain executive orders which
endanger the security of the United States, re-assert a zero-tolerance
immigration policy, ensure the safe return of unaccompanied alien children,
reduce human trafficking.
Gosar announced the bill in a tweet, writing “this week I
sponsored a 10-year moratorium on immigration until we can figure out how to
put Americans first.”
Then to harm our people more, the Biden administration uses
tax money to pay for transportation, fancy hotels (one in Scottsdale, Arizona),
food and health care for these illegal aliens. Meanwhile Americans suffer with
inflation and low wages,” the statement continued. “We can’t have legal
immigration when we have rampant illegal alien invaders. This is a threat to
our national security and our economy and to our citizens. “
“With the destruction of President Trump’s solid immigration
enforcement, and current disregard and violation of existing federal law, Mr.
Biden has unleashed the most severe border and humanitarian crisis in United
States history,”
Gosar added. “No other nation, save England and Germany, has
willingly participated in its own economic and cultural destruction. No
American voted for this desecration. The laws have not been changed. This is
lawless criminality.”
The statement concluded by saying that “With millions of
Americans including our veterans who are now unemployed, homeless, or living in
poverty we need to take care of one another before we allow millions to migrate
here.
Time to pause migration to America and figure out how to put
the American people first.” Indeed!
Considered together, and if passed the Amnesty etc. Bills (e.g.H.R. 1177 and S348 et. al.) would likely result in the
issuance of 37 Million Green cards
Now, the House and Senate Judiciary Committees have broad
instructions to draft an amnesty for as many illegal aliens as they see fit.
Congressional Democrats have clearly stated that the amnesty must include
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) recipients, Temporary Protected
Status (TPS) beneficiaries, farmworkers, and those working in “essential
industries,” which includes nearly almost every occupation under the sun.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) directed the
Senate’s committees to prepare their legislative text before September 15 Call
your Senators and Representatives and tell them we should close our Borders
permanently to Illegal Entry by inter alia, completing the wall, and limit
Legal Immigration by imposing an all-categories-included zero Net Moratorium on
Legal Immigration (which would still allow about 150,000 legal settlers
annually)..
This Solution to the Mass Legal immigration problem must
also include ending the Visa Lottery, Chain Migration and Birthright
Citizenship, and above all limiting the overall Numbers via the
all-categories-included Zero-Net Moratorium, including dramatically limiting or
even eliminating the number of H1b Visas.The USA does
NOT have a STEM or other worker shortage, as four separate studies have shown
(see ASAP! Coalition member Carrying Capacity Network's recent Alert.)
We reiterate: to reduce the number of Illegals, it is
essential to dramatically reduce the number of LEGAL “Slots” (e.g., the
uncapped Asylee Category) which serve as a Magnet for Illegal Aliens coming!
The Asylee category encourages Child Trafficking, because if an Illegal migrant
brings or “acquires” a child, that Illegal immigrant is not deported, and is
likely to get a green card.
So tell Congress and the Biden administration NOW you want
reactivation of Operation Talon. And tell them You want Funding to Complete
building The Wall, and, Implementation of e-Verify, And an end to Catch and Release and unlimited
grants of Asylum and Chain Migration Anchor Baby citizenship and All work-based
Visas (e.g., no more H1a and H1b Visas).
Over 20 Million Americans are now
unemployed, so now is the time to mandate a “Hire Americans Only” policy.
Consider the consequences of NOT implementing the aforementioned. Among the
most important are:
BALANCE has documented the toll that Mass Immigration takes
on the Environment (Pressure Intensifying to Migrate to the US) , including the loss of one acre of farmland or natural
habitat for every person added to the U.S. population!.
And reported on the $330 Billion Annual NET Cost to U.S.
Taxpayers from Legal immigration (see Net Costs of Legal Immigration Study).
And increasing population density and Immigration have
Disease and Public Safety Consequences And allowing Mass immigration increases
overpopulation in the sending countries (c.f. Professors Abernethy, Vanderbilt,
and Brittain Fla.State)
Remittances from and Opportunity for Migrants in the USA increases birth rates
in those sending countries.
So help BALANCE MOBILIZE ACTIVISTS and contact Media and Congress
to intensify our push for the aforementioned all-categories included Zero-NET
MORATORIUM TODAY, NOW!
Please contact your representatives NOW!
We expect the Open Borders lobby to move very soon to enact
as a part of their omnibus Amnesty bill, all the “Bad Bills” we helped
successfully stop in recent years TO MAXIMIZE BALANCE's CLOUT PLEASE DONATE

DONATIONS ARE TAX-DEDUCTIBLE Dollar for Dollar, Donations to BALANCE and its
ASAP! Coalition Allies who push a Moratorium on the approximate 1.6 Million Legal Immigrants who settle in the U.S. each year
(including the 400,000 settling each year in California), create much more
Political Clout for reduction in both Legal and Illegal immigration numbers
than Donations to Mass Immigration Management Groups, i.e., those who refuse to
push for an all-categories-included Zero-Net Moratorium, and, therefore, de
facto endorse continued Mass Immigration.
Failure to push for an all-categories-included Zero-Net
Moratorium and for closing Borders to Illegal
Entry constitutes de facto support for continuing Mass Immigration, only at
lower levels.
