(KCPW News) The Utah House of Representatives rejected a motion today by Representative Stephen Sandstrom to create a bill that would suspend the business license of Utah companies that don’t use E-Verify. Last year, Utah lawmakers passed a guest worker law that levies fines against businesses who fail to use E-Verify to confirm the legal status of their workers, starting in 2013. Sandstrom said this proposal would have brought the state in line with a recent Supreme Court decision.
“The Supreme Court has said fines are unconstitutional, a business sanction is. So all this is doing is bringing this in line with the United States Supreme Court, and so there cannot be a court challenge to this,” said Sandstrom.
Sandstrom said the agriculture industry would have been exempt from the sanctions under his bill.
Opponents of the motion said they want to wait for pending immigration related court cases to be resolved before moving forward with more legislation. Sandstrom’s motion to open the bill file failed by a 36 to 37 vote. The deadline for lawmakers to open new bills without the legislature’s approval passed last week.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT A PERSONS RACE, NATIONALITY OR IMMIGRATION STATUS, THIS IS STRICTLY ABOUT THE RIGHTS OF US BORN CITIZENS, NATURALIZED CITIZENS AND GREEN CARD HOLDERS, WHO HAVE BEEN VIOLATED BY THE POLITICIANS, SPECIAL INTEREST LOBBYISTS, UNIONS, THE CHURCH AND RADICAL GROUPS. THESE ENTITIES HAVE HIJACKED WELFARE ENTITLEMENTS FOR FOREIGN NATIONALS NEEDED BY OUR OWN IMPOVERISHED PEOPLE.
THE TWO IMMIGRATION LAWS UNDER MENTIONED THAT CAN ADD COMMONSENSE TO OUR ENFORCEMENT POLICIES. BOTH LAWS IF PASSED WILL TRANSLATE INTO REPATRIATION OR SELF-DEPORTATION OF ILLEGAL ALIENS.
1. DEMAND “THE LEGAL WORKFORCE” BILL, BE INTRODUCED BEFORE CONGRESS.
Mandatory E-Verify will inflict fear into every business that hires illegal labor. Simple and straightforward that anybody business owner caught after the nationwide implementation will face strict penalties, that includes huge fines, asset confiscation and prison. Whereas President Obama has been shown currently of weakening ICE raids on companies, who use elicit workers. Mitt Romney is right—that once the job market for illegal job seekers, dries up thousands will leave. This is ATTRITION through Enforcement, with little or no dollars spent, with the deciding factor that has a right to work. The electronic Social Security program hooked onto Homeland Security data bases will reject unauthorized labor. As an addition a special monetary reward fund for informants or “Whistle Blowers” who report suspicious activity on company payrolls. Use hundreds of millions of dollars in fines, to recruit more agents for our undermanned border and begin the construction of former President Bush’s “2006 Secure Fence Act” that was dropped by the elites in the Republican Party, with assistance of the Democrats. We need the double parallel fencing from San Diego, California to Brownsville, Texas.
2. DEMAND “THE BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP” BILL BE INTRODUCED BEFORE CONGRESS.
An Amendment to the 14th Amendment will discard this irrational law, that every baby born in America has a right to citizenship. The amendment will rescind this law, instituting that only a baby born of a legal parent(S), has the status to become a citizen. With an estimated 340.000 annual illegal alien Mothers, surging into this nation by misleading the immigration authorities, this must be brought to an abrupt stop. Unfortunately the word has spread throughout the world, that if a Mother of an unborn child can pass agents at entry points, then they can claim the misguided law that says they can award their baby with all the free benefits associated with citizenship. Billions of dollars are appropriated in this way for the whole family. They are very well versed that for every child they can birth, there is a cornucopia of cash payments and public assistance programs. Under The Birthright Citizenship Bill” we can finally bring an end to these expensive deficits, laid upon every state taxpayer.
JUST REMEMBER WHEN YOU VOTE–WHO BLOCKED IMPLEMENTATION OF IMMIGRATION LAWS AND REMOVE THEM FROM OFFICE. THAT ALSO GOES FOR GOVERNORS, JUDGES, MAYOR’S, CHIEF OF POLICE AND ANY OTHER ELECTED OFFICIALS. SHOW THEM YOU’RE VOTE COUNTS, AND WE DON’T NEED ANY MORE PRO-ILLEGAL MIGRANT OR IMMIGRANT THAT WE HAVE TO FEED, HOUSE, GIVE FREE MEDICAL TREATMENT, WHEN OUR OWN PEOPLE REMAIN IN POVERTY?
Now with Arizona’s positive draconian enforcement policing laws, illegal aliens are fleeing to the Liberal welcoming arms of California and states that have disregarded the pleading message from their populations. Two main laws must find passage by the “THE PEOPLE’S PARTY, the growing Tea Party, and all Constitutional Conservative Americans are sick and tired of supporting people who broke into this country, from every corner of the world. It is an unrelenting bombardment of dire poverty, which the courts have coerced all of us into paying for other countries desperate and poor. School fees, health care, prison cells and growing list including President Obama’s agenda of food stamps for all. They slip past immigration agents at entry points as disguised tourist with hidden fetuses and immediately apply for their baby’s citizenship. That then allows them to collect all the public assistance programs and get free treatments in delivery rooms, leaving the taxpayers to carry the fees. They steal our Social Security numbers, which in itself is a felony, but under USICS (Immigration & Citizenship Services) thousands have been allowed to stay, even though they have used other people’s ID. This is not a victimless crime, as unknown numbers of ordinary Americans have had their credit crippled, by this serious violation.
I hope that California residents realize there being cheated out of billions of dollars annually? Just ask Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Andronovich of not just millions, but billions of dollars annually being collected by foreign nationals. No wonder Los Angeles County has to folk out $48.000.000 dollars in just the month of June 2009. Is there any record of what the cost would be currently, with the deluge already here and the 500.000 estimate that appear each year looking for their free handouts? Risk a few minutes of your time and find the Website “American Patrol”, and investigate the news that is suppressed by the majority Liberal Press. Also scan through NUMBERSUSA website and see the grading system for Romney, Gingrich, Santorum and Paul and their stance on enforcement of immigration laws? Call your US Senator or House Representative today or even contact your State equivalent, and insist they sponsor E-Verify and the Birthright citizenship bills and be prepared for indifference. Keep harassing them or otherwise, we will keep hemorrhaging billions of dollars. The future of a Constitutional America is in your hands, not the route of Socialized medicine and the different agenda of President Obama and his Liberal progressive Czars in Washington.
