Illegal Immigration Going Legal?

Illegal immigration in mainland US is a widely-discussed issue. A lot of politicians are claiming that the borders are tightly guarded and are fully secured. A recent study has indicated that there are at least 11 million illegal aliens who live and work in the US. And this number is fast rising as more and more immigrants are entering the border illegally. There is an estimated half a million illegal entries each year. Basing on these facts, there are more illegal aliens in the US compared to those who entered legally.

In this article, I will be talking about a labor secretary who may seem to contradict with her job description. The person I am talking about is Hilda Solis, the labor secretary who was appointed by none other than President Obama. With her work focused on promoting only what is good for the working sector, she displays a rather opposing mindset. In fact, she widely accepts and promotes the open-borders initiative.

At a Latino voter registration conference in Los Angeles, she reportedly spoke with all authority the following phrase “We are all Americans, whether you are legalized or not.” Shocking it may seem but this labor secretary whose job is to protect and upheld the rights of the American labor force is strongly considering equal rights for both legal and illegal citizens. It seems that she doesn’t care about American immigration laws and worst, she doesn’t put importance to what is legally obtained.

Solis is considered a strong supporter of improving illegal alien wages and benefits. She even hired over 250 new government field investigators to bolster and empower her campaign for illegal immigrant’s rights and privileges. Also, some other US cities are now adopting a resolution where illegal immigrant workers are included on their compensation plans. With the rising rate of unemployment, the federal government is giving so much priority and attention to illegal immigrant workers rather than help the actual and real American worker.

With the lack of tight US border security and with politicians who promote illegal aliens, America will soon be overrun by these illegal immigrants. The real essence of a true and deserving American is slowly being vanquished. When will the government realize this unjust and unruly situation that is invading the mainland US? Laws should be implemented in a way they should be and the innocent should be the one to benefit from it.
