Part 3 of Candidate X on the Issues: Illegal Aliens

Alabama needs leaders with the political will to tackle illegal immigration in a way that actually does something.

I am going to make this simple.

1. Require E-Verify for all businesses.
2. Punish employers who willingly higher them.
3. Expand our ability to hold illegal aliens with more beds in prisons set aside for them.
4. Require law enforcement to determine the legal status of all individuals involved in traffic stops and arrests.
5. Require all state contractors to sign a pledge that they will not hire illegal aliens and if they violate that pledge there will be a 10% fine based on the contract awarded.

Most of these target businesses because they benefit the most while the people of America suffer.

  1. While I agree in principle, #4 will greatly reduce the effectiveness of law enforcement if they really verify legal status at every traffic stop instead of taking a fake license at face value. It would require time and mounds of red tape.

    Another suggestion (that will NEVER happen) would be to place a law enforcement officer in the ER at each major hospital to verify legal status before patients leave. This would also save many hospitals that are failing because of illegals using them for primary care, then giving false information and not paying.
