Illegals to get Stimulus Jobs...

http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/employment/2009-03-08-immigrant-jobs_N.htm

Hmmm...so this has me thinking? If true, what's the real purpose of the stimulus package? To get Americans back to work, or stimulate the economy? In short, does anyone in DC care who gets the stimulus jobs?

It's only fair, after all, they voted for Baraak.

You know what S.N.A.F.U. stands for, doncha?

Two paragraphs near the end of that article:

The version of the stimulus bill passed by the House of Representatives included a provision requiring employers to check immigration status with the E-Verify system before hiring. The Senate did not include such a provision, and it was not in the version sent to President Obama. The Obama administration has delayed until at least May 21 a Bush administration executive order requiring federal contractors to use the E-Verify system in hiring. It had been scheduled to take effect in January. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce filed suit seeking to block the requirement, joined by the Associated Builders and Contractors and other business organizations.

The business groups and immigrant advocacy groups argue that the E-Verify database is riddled with errors that could result in millions of workers being wrongly identified as not authorized for work. They say requiring its use before hiring would impose a cost burden on employers and open them to lawsuits.
