Under the immigration reform bill, some employers would have an
incentive of up to $3,000 per year to hire a newly legalized immigrant
over a U.S. citizen.
In avoiding one controversy — the cost of providing millions of newly
legalized immigrants with ObamaCare subsidies — the Senate “Gang of
Eight” may have risked walking into another.

Immigration Bill ‘Worse Than We Thought,’ Legalizes Relatives and Previously Deported
CNS News quotes Rep. Lamar Smith from Texas [emphasis added]:
“It’s hard to believe, but the Senate immigration bill is worse than
we thought. Despite assurances, the border is not secured before almost
everyone in the country illegally is given amnesty. The bill guarantees
there will be a rush across the border to take advantage of massive
amnesty.”
Rep. Smith says the Senate immigration bill shreds current immigration laws:
“And the Senate proposal offers amnesty to far more illegal immigrants than we thought. In
addition to most of the 11 million illegal immigrants already in the
country, the bill offers to legalize the relatives of illegal immigrants
outside the U.S. and even others who have already been deported back
home. So current immigration laws are shredded. (Read More)

More Than 101 Million Working Age Americans Do Not Have A Job And Now They Want To Legalize 30 Million Foreigners? WTF!?
The jobs recovery is a complete and total myth. The percentage of
the working age population in the United States that had a job in March
2013 was exactly the same as it was all the way back in March 2010. In
addition, as you will see below, there are now more than 101 million
working age Americans that do not have a job. But even though the
employment level in the United States has consistently remained very low
over the past three years, the Obama administration keeps telling us
that unemployment is actually going down.
In fact, they tell us that the unemployment rate has declined from a
peak of 10.0% all the way down to 7.6%. And they tell us that in March
the unemployment rate fell by 0.1% even though only 88,000 jobs were
added to the U.S. economy. But it takes at least 125,000 new jobs a
month just to keep up with population growth. So how in the world are
they coming up with these numbers? Well, the reality is that the entire decline in the unemployment rate over the past three years can be accounted for by the reduction in size of the labor force.
In other words, the Obama administration is getting unemployment to
go down by pretending that millions upon millions of unemployed
Americans simply do not want jobs anymore. We saw this once again in
March. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 600,000 Americans
dropped out of the labor market during that month alone. That pushed
the labor force participation rate down to 63.3%, which is the lowest
it has been in more than 30 years. So please don’t believe the hype.
The sad truth is that there has been no jobs recovery whatsoever.
If things were getting better, there would not be more than 101 million working age Americans without a job.
So exactly where does that statistic come from? Well, the following explains where I got that number…
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are 11,742,000 working age Americans that are officially unemployed.
In addition, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says that there are 89,967,000 working
age Americans that are “not in the labor force”. That is a new
all-time record, and that number increased by a whopping 663,000 during the month of March alone.
When you add 11,742,000 working age Americans that are officially
unemployed to the 89,967,000 working age Americans that are “not in the
labor force”, you come up with a grand total of 101,709,000 working age
Americans that do not have a job….

Republican group says 9 million to 50 million illegal immigrants live in United States
A Texas group urging congressional action on immigration also says
the number of illegal U.S. residents might vary more than five-fold.
The Texas Federation of Republican Women, which describes itself as the state’s most powerful women’s political group, said in its Jan. 17, 2013, resolution:
“Within the United States, there currently reside between nine (9) and
fifty (50) million undocumented residents from all cultural and
socio-economic backgrounds and nationalities.”
That’s some range. The 9 million figure undershoots a widely bandied
estimate of 11 million, most recently included in December 2012 news
accounts from USA Today and the Associated Press. The 50 million figure seems off the charts.
And the full statement indicates that 3 percent to 16 percent of more than 315 million U.S. residents are here illegally.
To our inquiries, a federation spokeswoman, Laura Sorrell of Austin,
said the group drew its figures from different sources. She said by
email that the group had no source to provide for the 9 million figure,
while the 50 million figure was provided by a former fellow with Rice
University’s James A. Baker Institute for Public Policy, Joan Neuhaus Schaan.
