10/03/2007: "Judge blocks proposal to verify legal status of US employees"

Judge Charles Breyer of the U.S. District Court for Northern Californiais blocking efforts by the Department of Homeland Security to crack down on those who hire illegal immigrants. The suit challenging the government was brought by the American Civil Liberties Union, the AFL-CIO and several San Francisco labor groups.

Here's how the DHS program would work: If an employer finds out an employee's information doesn't match Social Security records and the employee can't clarify the issue within 90 days, the employer would have to fire that person or risk being prosecuted. In other words, if the employee obtained his job under false pretenses and was working for the company illegally, he would be fired.

[ Judge Breyer is probably reacting to his fear of being singled out as not part of the dominant paradigm, since he is from a Jewish family that probably remembers the Holocaust. The appropriate response however is to strengthen Israel, not attempt to weaken goyim. ]
