With
elections on horizon, immigration bills have new momentum
...As politicians strive to appease Latino
voters who will influence next year's elections, and placate
powerful business groups that need immigrant labor, several efforts
are gaining momentum in Congress to legalize millions of undocumented
workers and students [a practice known as shameless pandering...
or worse].  |

Plan:
Ship Mexican inmates back
Lawmakers are looking at reviving the
idea of sending Mexican nationals locked up in Arizona prisons
south of the border to serve the remainder of their sentences.
-- And it could come into play as the Legislature goes into a
special session today on prison spending and crowding. [The
governor doesn't like this idea].  |

New
trade plan under fire (More lies and miscalculations)
A decade ago, the Clinton administration
lobbied for [NAFTA] partly by promising that it would reduce
illegal immigration from Mexico. -- So much for promises. Illegal
immigration actually increased over the decade. -- Now, the Bush administration
and Central American countries are negotiating a new free trade
agreement. And they once again promise it will reduce illegal
immigration, this time from Central America.  |

Controversy
surrounds sham foreign IDs
..."It's sort of a creeping legalization
is what it is," says David Simcox a 30-year veteran of the
State Department and former President of the Center for Immigration
Studies in Washington. He says "the

of a person can't be checked on the card, his background can't
be checked."  |
