Fight brewing over Social Security benefits for illegal immigrants

A new clash over retirement benefits has come to a head following President Obama’s decision to unilaterally protect up to 5 million illegal immigrants from deportation. The White House now acknowledges that many of the illegal immigrants spared from deportation under Obama’s sweeping executive action will become eligible for Social Security and Medicare benefits once they reach retirement age. The conservative backlash has been swift and will certainly extend into a GOP Congress’ deliberations in 2015 over how to limit the reach of the president’s immigration blueprint. A central argument in Obama’s defense of

What if the illegals left?

Somebody really did their homework on this one. Best on the subject to present date.
What if 20 Million Illegal Aliens Vacated America?
I, Tina Griego, journalist for the Denver Rocky Mountain News wrote a column titled, "Mexican Visitor's Lament."
I interviewed Mexican journalist Evangelina Hernandez while visiting Denver last week. Hernandez said, "Illegal aliens pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes. What happens to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?"
Hmmm, I thought, what would happen?
So I did my due diligence, buried my nose as a reporter into the FACTS I found below.
It's a good question... it deserves an honest answer. Over 80% of Americans demand secured borders and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen if all 20 million or more vacated America? The answers I found may surprise you!
In California, if 3.5 million illegal aliens moved back to Mexico, it would leave an extra $10.2 billion to spend on overloaded school systems, bankrupt hospitals and overrun prisons. It would leave highways cleaner, safer and less congested. Everyone could understand one another as English became the dominant language again.
In Colorado, 500,000 illegal migrants, plus their 300,000 kids and grandchilds would move back "home," mostly to Mexico. That would save Colorado an estimated $2 billion (other experts say $7 billion) annually in taxes that pay for schooling, medical, social-services and incarceration costs. It means 12,000 gang members would vanish out of Denver alone.
Colorado would save more than $20 million in prison costs, and the terror that those 7,300 alien criminals set upon local citizens. Denver Officer Don Young and hundreds of Colorado victims would not have suffered death, accidents, rapes and other crimes by illegals.
Denver Public Schools would not suffer a 67% dropout/flunk rate because of thousands of illegal alien students speaking 41 different languages. At least 200,000 vehicles would vanish from our gridlocked cities in Colorado. Denver's 4% unem ployment rate would vanish as our working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.
In Florida, 1.5 million illegals would return the Sunshine State back to America, the rule of law, and English.
In Chicago, Illinois, 2.1 million illegals would free up hospitals, schools, prisons and highways for a safer, cleaner and more crime-free experience.
If 20 million illegal aliens returned 'home,' the U.S. Economy would return to the rule of law. Employers would hire legal American citizens at a living wage. Everyone would pay their fair share of taxes because they wouldn't be working off the books. That would result in an additional $401 billion in IRS income taxes collected annually, and an equal amount for local, state and city coffers.
No more push '1' for Spanish or '2' for English. No more confusion in American schools that now must contend with over 100 languages that degrade the educational system for American kids. Our overcrowded schools would lose more than two million illegal alien kids at a cost of billions in ESL and free breakfasts and lunches.
We would lose 500,000 illegal criminal alien inmates at a cost of more than $1.6 billion annually. That includes 15,000 MS-13 gang members who distribute $130 billion in drugs annually would vacate our country.
In cities like L.A., 20,000 members of the '18th Street Gang' would vanish from our nation. No more Mexican forgery gangs for ID theft from Americans! No more foreign rapists and child molesters!
Losing more than 20 million people would clear up our crowded highways and gridlock. Cleaner air and less drinking and driving American deaths by illegal aliens!
America's economy is drained. Taxpayers are harmed. Employers get rich. Over $80 billion annually wouldn't return to the aliens' home countries by cash transfers. Illegal migrants earned half that money untaxed, which further drains America 's economy which currently suffers an $8.7 trillion debt. $8.7 trillion debt!!!
At least 400,000 anchor babies would not be born in our country, costing us $109 billion per year per cycle. At least 86 hospitals in California, Georgia and Florida would still be operating instead of being bankrupt out of existence because illegals pay nothing via the EMTOLA Act. Americans wouldn't suffer thousands of TB and hepatitis cases rampant in our country - brought in by illegals unscreened at our borders.
Our cities would see 20 million less people driving, polluting and grid locking our cities. It would also put the 'progressives' on the horns of a dilemma; illegal aliens and their families cause 11% of our greenhouse gases.
Over one million of Mexico's poorest citizens now live inside and along our border from Brownsville, Texas, to San Diego, California, in what the New York Times called, 'colonias' or new neighborhoods. Trouble is, those living areas resemble Bombay and Calcutta where grinding poverty, filth, diseases, drugs, crimes, no sanitation and worse. They live without sewage, clean water, streets, roads, electricity, or any kind of sanitation.
The New York Times reported them to be America's new 'Third World' inside our own country. Within 20 years, at their current growth rate, they expect 20 million residents of those colonials. (I've seen them personally in Texas and Arizona; it's sickening beyond anything you can imagine.)
By enforcing our laws, we could repatriate them back to Mexico. We should invite 20 million aliens to go home, fix their own countries and/or make a better life in Mexico. We already invite a million people into our country legally annually, more than all other countries combined. We cannot and must not allow anarchy at our borders, more anarchy within our borders and growing lawlessness at every level in our nation.
It's time to stand up for our country, our culture, our civilization and our way of life.
Interesting Statistics!
Here are 14 reasons illegal aliens should vacate America, and I hope they are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that the reader gets sick of reading them:
1. $14 billion to $22 billion dollars are spent each year on welfare to illegal aliens (that's Billion with a 'B')
3. $7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens.
4. $12 billion dollars are spent each year on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they still cannot speak a word of English!
5. $27 billion dollars are spent each year for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.
6. $3 Million Dollars 'PER DAY' is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. That's $1.2 Billion a year.
7. 28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.
8. $190 billion dollars are spent each year on illegal aliens for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers.
9. $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.
10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two and a half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in t he US.
11. During the year 2005, there were 8 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our southern border with as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from other terrorist countries. Over 10,000 of those were middle-eastern terrorists. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin, crack, guns, and marijuana crossed into the U.S. from the southern border.
12. The National Policy Institute, estimates that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion, or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period.
13. In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends.
14. The dark side of illegal immigration: Nearly one million sex crimes are committed by illegal immigrants in the United States!
Total cost a whopping $538.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR !

This could be the week Congress makes clear its intention to fund Obama's executive amnesty, or not. Congress has the authority and the opportunity. Does Congress have the will?
If recent news coverage is any indication, the media is rooting for either total capitulation by the Republicans, or a catastrophic shutdown of the entire government. That is the false choice presented by the most of the coverage you'll find today. But amidst the misinformation, there are some nuggets of news that are worth paying attention to.
Please use the tools at your disposal to comment, clarify, correct, inform, and educate.
Defunding the Executive Action

The New York Times reports Republican leadership is using the threat of a shutdown as an excuse to fully fund President Obama's executive action to grant work permits to up to 5 million illegal aliens:
"As Congress returns from recess on Monday facing a Dec. 11 deadline for funding the government, Mr. Boehner and his fellow Republican leaders are working to persuade the rank and file -- furious over President Obama's executive action on immigration -- that engaging in a spending confrontation is the wrong way to counter the White House. That would set the wrong tone, they argue..."​
This is the latest in a series of excuses by the Republican leadership, which has talked a big game about stopping the executive actions but has yet to step on the field.
The Hill does its part to provide cover for Republican leadership by reporting a popular canard via "a number of Republicans" who claim Congress has no power to defund the executive action:
"Alfonso Aguilar, who headed the Office of Citizenship under President George W. Bush, said there's 'no way' the defunding route would work because the key agency -- the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) -- operates on a fee basis, in lieu of congressional appropriations. The same concern has been raised by House Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers (R-Ky.)."​
The Hill is usually a good source of breaking information, but this is just wrong. The Congressional Research Service confirmed last week that Congress absolutely has the power to defund.
The International Business Times says "the best option" for Republicans is to follow the advice of Senator Sessions and just add defunding language to a spending bill. But Republican leaders are afraid of the shutdown stories they keep reading in the papers, so:
"Republicans are looking at a partial option: Fund the government until September 2015 -- what Democrats want -- except the parts of the government that execute immigration functions. Merging two words that are used to describe spending bills, the 'CR' (for 'continuing resolution') and 'omnibus,' this option is being called a 'cromnibus.' The immigration parts of the government would be funded only until early next year, when Republicans control the Senate and they can use the leverage of a partial shutdown to try to force Obama to reverse his order."​
Again, a shutdown isn't necessary, but under this scenario, only the more bureaucratic parts of USCIS and DHS (nothing pertaining to national security) would temporarily go offline if the President chooses to veto the spending bill(s) next year.
Immigration Legislation in 2015?

In an encouraging bit of news, Senator-elect Tom Cotton (AR) told Chuck Todd of Meet the Press that the next Congress would tackle the larger question of immigration limits, noting that high levels of immigration "drive down wages and increase unemployment."
Fox News edited out that part of Cotton's quote, saying only that Cotton said the priorities in a House version [of an immigration reform bill] would be border security and enforcing existing laws on people living illegally in the United States.
In doing so, Fox ignored one of the least-reported and most-opposed aspects of the Senate immigration bill: the doubling of future immigration, both permanent and temporary.
There are three fundamental questions at the heart of the immigration debate: (1) Should immigration be limited? (2) What should the numerical limits be? and (3) How should those limits be enforced? The media and most politicians studiously avoid the first two. President Obama's executive action pretends those questions don't exist.
If any headway is to be made on immigration policy in 2015, we will have to force reporters and politicians to address the immigration numbers.

[h=5]‎The Ruthie Report/MINNSIR
[/h]

Just goes to show that Obamnesty is not concerned with the legal process - nor Americans and Legal Residents - those who played by the rules --- A slap in the face - is right!!!! Obama is such an Epic Failure
Ruthie
From the article - UNBELIEVABLE
So, when President Obama announced last week that illegal immigrants will soon have what she hasn't received after years of obeying the law -- it was a slap in the face.
"Instead of helping people that came to America legally, they are just going to give amnesty and make hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants legal instead of us."

[/SIZE][/FONT][/h] Dear James,

Stop Executive Amnesty: Lame Duck Session Activism

Congress is back in the la
me duck session and is considering what type of spending bill to pass. This is important to us because a long-term spending bill takes the power of the purse away from the next Congress to defund President Obama's executive amnesty. Only a short-term spending bill would both keep the government open and equip the 114th Congress with the power to defund.

There's been a lot of talk about whether Congress has the power to defund this amnesty. The answer is yes. Here's more:


Harold Rogers, House Appropriations chair, insisted that Appropriations could not withhold funding for specific measures including immigration but is instead obligated to pass an omnibus bill that would include all spending. A Congressional Research Service (CRS) report, however, found that Congress does have the power to block Obama’s action.

In its opinion, CRS wrote that the Supreme Court has recognized that Congress may always circumscribe agency discretion to allocate resources by putting restrictions in the operative statutes. Where Congress has done so, “An agency is not free simply to disregard statutory responsibilities.” Therefore, if a statute were enacted which prohibited appropriated funds from being used for immigration, then “the relevant funds would be unavailable to be obligated or expended for those purposes...”

In other words, Congress has full authority to restrict all amnesty funds.
Executive amnesty is not a "done deal." We aim to stop it with your help!


I thank the thousands of you that made calls in the last two weeks. CAPS launched both a national call campaign as well as a localized patch-through phone campaign to House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, whose CA 23rd district is in our own backyard, the Bakersfield area. This massive patch-through phone campaign (free to our members) resulted in thousands of calls to the House Majority Leader’s office urging him to take the steps to defund this amnesty.

Result: After hearing from thousands of CAPS’ members, McCarthy tweeted:

“It is our obligation & responsibility to fight this brazen power grab that
doesn't solve the real problems.”

Our thoughts exactly. We already know the problems and the solution is simple: Secure our borders and enforce our nation’s immigration laws! More results like this are needed for our shared cause to win and are only possible with your continued activism and financial support!

More calls are needed this week. Have you taken action on these recent alerts? And, if you did, please do it again during this Lame Duck Congressional Session.

1. Call your Senators and Representative today and tell them to bar funding by passing only a short-term funding bill. The full alert text is here , below is a summary.
Call your Senators and Representative through the Capitol Switchboard toll-free at 866-220-0044. Please make the calls even if one or more of your officials is hopeless on immigration issues. Even many amnesty supporters oppose this unilateral action by the President. Tell your officials:

  • You oppose this unilateral action by President Obama to pre-empt America’s immigration laws.
  • Congress should bar funding to implement this amnesty. It should only pass short-term funding bills so that the new Congress can remove funding next year.
2. Sign and share CAPS' petition to Republican leadership: StopExecutiveAmnesty.com

3. Keep up the pressure and call House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA 23rd district), even if you are NOT in his district. And, please share the campaign on Facebook by clicking on the infographic below:

Watch: Trey Gowdy Absolutely Schools Liberal Trying To Play Race Card On Republicans
Read more at http://www.westernjournalism.com/tr...using-republicans-racist/#o2iOl7SA5ZCdxT38.99
The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing on President Obama’s executive overreach on immigration this past Tuesday to examine the constitutional questions surrounding this unprecedented power grab. The Committee heard from several legal scholars on the President’s unilateral actions, including Marielena Hincapie, Executive Director of the National Immigration Law Center (NILC).
Hincapie suggested at the congressional hearing that Republicans are opposing the president’s amnesty executive order because he is black. Congressman Gowdy confronted the NILC Director to get clarification on her response to an earlier question:

Advertisement-content continues below


“Miss Hincapie, among many limitations in life is my inability to glean other people’s motives or be able to read their minds. I could have sworn in response to a question you received from Mr. Cohen, you suggested race was the basis for why we may have this Constitutional perspective? Did I understand you correctly?”
Hincapie stammered out a response, but Gowdy interrupted:
“Well, let me offer another explanation to you, okay? Not a single Republican who is here right now ever served under a Republican president. Not one. So I hope I do live long enough to hold a Republican president to the exact same standard that I am holding this one. But for you to run to race as the explanation for why we hold the position that we do.”
Mr. Gowdy expanded on the hypocrisy of the Democrat Party:
“Harry Reid had a very different perspective on recess appointments when there was a Texan in the White House and none of us accused him of geographic discrimination. In fact, hell, for that matter, Senator Obama had a different perspective on executive overreach than President Obama and nobody runs to race as an explanation for that. So I would just caution you to be careful when you try to import motives to people.”
A press release by the NILC was posted on their website:
In a move that allowed the House of Representatives to continue venting its dislike for President Obama and his policies, lawmakers voted along party lines Thursday on a bill that attempts to limit the president’s well founded executive authority over immigration. The vote against the president’s policy to allow parents of U.S. citizen children and other immigrants who meet certain requirements to apply for temporary deportation relief and work authorization was the latest in a series of recent actions intended to strip the president of his legal authority over immigration enforcement. This legal authority is based on established regulations, court decisions, and historical precedent.

Tonight Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., plans to vote on the $1.1 trillion government-funding package known as CRomnibus but, to do so, he will need unanimous agreement from all Senators. Any Senator could object and delay consideration. Republican Sens.

Ted Cruz's moves on spending bill roil Republicans



Another senator said it was a strategy without an end game.

And that sniping came from Cruz's fellow Republicans.

The 43-year-old Texas freshman in a political hurry — he's considering a 2016 presidential run — infuriated several GOP colleagues with a last-minute attempt to force a vote on President Barack Obama's executive actions on immigration.

The move upended lawmakers' weekend plans and, more troubling for his party, gave Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., an opening to move forward on long-stalled Obama nominees.


Oh, well. Fucking hell. Really sorry to inconvenience your weekend plans when you assholes probably work 20% of the hours that the average American citizen does every year and are getting set to go on a month-long paid vacation...all on the taxpayer dime. What a rude bastard that Ted Cruz is.

Every single one of these RINOs needs to be kicked in the balls. Funny, a president lawlessly writing his own legislation doesn't seem to get them angry. But Ted Cruz trying to overturn it does.

There are very few true conservatives and patriots in Congress. You've basically got the dimpcrap party and dimocrap lites. Just curious, Mr. Anonymous senator...what is the "end game" of allowing the Stuttering Clusterfuck to do whatever he pleases, Constitutional constraints be damned?

Breaking News Tonight... President Obama's illegal immigration fiat has been ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge in Pennsylvania. The President's unilateral action that will effectively legalize up to 5 million people who unlawfully crossed our borders was deemed to go quote "beyond prosecutorial discretion," according to District Judge Arthur Schwab.
