Our Members Report on Jobs Americans WILL Do
(biased? Only toward America!!!)
SPECIAL REPORT: Jobs Americans Will Do

For years, open-borders proponents have stated that foreign workers are necessary because they work jobs that Americans simply won't do. Last spring we asked our members if they felt this statement was true and if they knew any Americans who worked in these ‘undesired’ fields, such as fast-food, hotel housekeeping, roofing, and janitorial work. The number of responses we received was overwhelming. Here are a few of the responses, reprinted with permission and edited for content.

Note: Views and opinions expressed in this special report are those of the authors. They do not necessarily reflect official policies of NumbersUSA.

Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) Offenses
Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens. Subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry. Subsection 1324(a)(3).

Alien Smuggling -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(i) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing that a person is an alien, to bring to or attempts to bring to the United States in any manner whatsoever such person at a place other than a designated port of entry or place other than as designated by the Commissioner, regardless of whether such alien has received prior official authorization to come to, enter, or reside in the United States and regardless of any future official action which may be taken with respect to such alien.

Domestic Transporting -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(ii) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, transports, or moves or attempts to transport or move such alien within the United States by means of transportation or otherwise, in furtherance of such violation of law.

Harboring -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation.

Encouraging/Inducing -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv) makes it an offense for any person who -- encourages or induces an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such coming to, entry, or residence is or will be in violation of law.

Conspiracy/Aiding or Abetting -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(v) expressly makes it an offense to engage in a conspiracy to commit or aid or abet the commission of the foregoing offenses.

Bringing Aliens to the United States -- Subsection 1324(a)(2) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has not received prior authorization to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, to bring to or attempts to bring to the United States in any manner whatsoever, such alien, regardless of any official action which may later be taken with respect to such alien.
Unit of Prosecution -- With regard to offenses defined in subsections 1324(a)(1)(A)(i)-(v), (alien smuggling, domestic transporting, harboring, encouraging/inducing, or conspiracy/aiding or abetting) each alien with respect to whom a violation occurs constitutes a unit of prosecution. Prior to enactment of the IIRIRA, the unit of prosecution for violations of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(2) was each transaction, regardless of the number of aliens involved. However, the unit of prosecution is now based on each alien in respect to whom a violation occurs.
Penalties -- The basic statutory maximum penalty for violating 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(i) and (v)(I) (alien smuggling and conspiracy) is a fine under title 18, imprisonment for not more than 10 years, or both. With regard to violations of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(ii)-(iv) and (v)(ii), domestic transportation, harboring, encouraging/inducing, or aiding/abetting, the basic statutory maximum term of imprisonment is 5 years, unless the offense was committed for commercial advantage or private financial gain, in which case the maximum term of imprisonment is 10 years.
Old buzzard booger eater doesn't get it. Encouraging, hiring, or abetting an illegal is a $5K fine for EACH illegal, and includes up to 5 years prison time at hard labor, and includes confiscation of property if entire fine is not paid. A 10% bounty would be good pickin's for those so inclined, or whatever percentage Dog gets. Use of force authorized!!

More coming in to take American jobs and try for gov't freebies to increase our National Debt--Reconquista.
Time for a bounty on all illegals(misdemeanor with $5K fine and 6 mos.) and their encouragers, employers, aiders and abettors (all felonies, $5 to 10 K fine for each illegal encouraged, etc., and 5 years for each offense).



From Glenn Spencer -- American Border Patrol -- September 26

The editorial board of the Washington Post has said that apprehensions of illegal aliens along our southern border have been reduced to such a low level that Republicans can declare victory and move on to granting amnesty to 11 million illegals. (Figures say GOP should declare victory on immigration -- WP -- Sept. 25, 2011)

According to the Post, apprehensions are down to about 350,000 for the fiscal year that ends Sept. 30. Arizona Senator John McCain says the U.S. Border Patrol catches about one in four. So, for the year ending on Friday, 1,400,000 people tried to cross the border illegally and 350,000 were stopped. That leaves 1,050,000 who made it. To say this is success is outrageous.

And, if we did declare success and grant amnesty to (at least) 11 million, what would the open borders crowd that runs DHS do? Stop enforcing the border, that's what.

It is past time that we stopped playing games and set a real goal for border protection. It is not unrealistic to believe we could reduce illegal entry across our southern border to about 20,000 per year. We could also install a reliable system to count everyone who crosses the border. Once this is in place and the goal of 20,000 have been reached and maintained for two years, we should proceed with the debate over what to do with those illegal aliens who are still in the U.S.

It is time that at least one of those engaged in the Republican debates endorse such a plan and let the people decide if it is right for America.

So why doesn't Congress build a secure border fence? Oh, right - they did. They just didn't authorize funding to complete it.
