According to a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies, worksite immigration enforcement has dropped under the Obama Administration.
The CIS said that workplace audits have dropped from over 3,000 in 2013 to a fraction, or 181 this fiscal year.
Along with audits, fines have dropped by half. This gives employers almost no incentive to look for legal workers because illegal workers are available and cheap.
Jessica Vaughan, the Center’s Director of Policy Studies and author of the report, said that the administration “has nearly abandoned enforcement of immigration” laws.
“The administration’s near discontinuation of worksite enforcement means that employers now face very little risk from hiring illegal workers and have little incentive to abide by the law,” said her report provided to Secrets.
Although using audits to cut out illegal immigrants from the job market has been disputed, Vaughan admits it seems more useful than doing nothing.
“The administration’s near total emphasis on audits amounted to half a loaf — and now it turns out that they have abandoned even that half-hearted strategy in favor of doing nothing at all to deter unscrupulous employers. To do this at a time when there are 92 million Americans not working is a huge disservice to the unemployed Americans and to the employers who play by the rules,” said Vaughan.
Well Obama works hard at taking our money and emptying the coffers everyday, but knows nothing about work. When he goes back to civilian life he should have his pension taken from him. Lets see if he can get a job with all the immigrants because he and his wife were both disbarred. Lets see if he likes the immigrant competition.???
No, he’ll start a foundation like the Clintons did and get rich from all the corporations would want cheap labor. Why do you think he’s pushing so hard to get TPP passed before he gets out of office?
Americans need to stop shopping at any place that hires illegals. Money speaks the loudest these days. And stop buying the Chinese crap in the stores, go without, that’s what Americans used to do.
What really irritates me is he sent hopper rail cars full of chunked metal to China. Remember that cash for clunkers deal? Try and find a car part in a junk yard its no longer there its now a spatula youre going to buy in WalMart & Cosco that is half tin. It breaks the first time you use it. You have no idea how Obama has tried to take down the USA. Try sending money from your banking account to another one. The Federal Reserve gets 33% of whatever transaction youre sending. This black pile of crap is a hustler and is hooked up with muslim terrorists it shows if anybody will look. Just like Hitler-y name one thing he has done to help america? Im not talking about the dead beats they are getting my health care for free. Im not talking about letting immigrants go for rape / extortion / murder, and letting us pay for there extended stay either. They have done nothing but take us down. This TTP trade is just somemore toilet paper he will wipe his back side with, and we loose.
Well said Dennis! And as it turns out the House of Representatives just passed fast track for TPP! I just heard about it on talk radio a few minutes ago. Yeah, average Americans once again get screwed and are expected to smile about it.
Kind of reminds you of the 2 guys smoking dope! Mom asks him if he went looking for a job that day. Remember = ah no – no maaa
my car wouldnt start I didnt have matching socks, I had the sniffles, Our government isnt worth the powder to blow them to hell. Left or right they fall right into the same scheity grove dont they!
Obama is using ILLEGALS even flying them in to this country solely for his subversive political goals! Does he “care” about
ILLEGALS? Certainly as far as they are useful to him to further his socialist aims!
Forget hunting for illegal wet backs, where is the next Oswald?
TPP will flood our country with people from every country who signed, it will also give the UN control over us and our Constitution will be meaningless…I saw the big FK ass grin on the gay muslim POS, he has fckd us!
