E-Verify closer to becoming Law in Florida


Guess what groups are defending illegal aliens? The Florida Chamber of Commerce and the Associated Industries of Florida, along with the state's agricultural industry, oppose both the House and Senate bills on E-Verify. No surprise here.

The Florida Chamber and Associated Industries whore themselves and fool their members using "jobs" as the pretense. E-Verify will hurt Florida's agricultural economy, they say. Republican Adam Putnam, Agriculture Commissioner, was elected to his position on making an exception to those illegals working in the agriculture business. It just shows that voters are totally confused on candidates and Politicians will even compromise our laws.

There were other nut cases in the chamber besides some Democrats: an activist bashed the Bill; a law student who claimed to be an "illegal" (we have had those nuts right in our own chamber in Lake Worth even wearing t-shirts claiming they are illegal) as well as bible thumper enthusiasts who support illegal immigration and resorted to biblical verses to justify illegal border crossings, as if there is a justification.

The Bill says that enforcement provisions are not triggered by a traffic stop. Illegal aliens don't have to carry documentation. It merely states that if, during a criminal investigation, there is reasonable suspicion about illegal presence, a separate immigration charge can be filed. E-Verify screening must be used before you hire.

Rick Scott and the House Economic Affairs Committee got this one right. Now let's move forward quickly before all of Georgia's illegals migrate to Florida.
