Representative Jerry Nolte (R) - state representative for the 33rd District just north of the river in Clay County - is busy taking on problem if illegal immigration. He's chair of the special committee on immigration.
Thank goodness someone is going to punish employers who hire illegal immigrants. Without a demand, there is no supply. HB 85, which makes it illegal (i.e. a crime and felony) for an employer to knowingly hire an illegal alien, was sent to Rep. Nolte's committee and was never passed into law. The Republicans control the Senate, the House and the Governor's mansion. What's Nolte's excuse for failure on this issue of great importance to him?
Rep. Nolte gets appointed the chair of a special committee and gets nothing passed. Criminalizing people doing the hiring - law and order, baby - is what the Republicans are all about. Why can't the chairman Nolte get things done? Maybe Clay County folks need a new state representative in the Missouri House.

Someone wants to pass a law to punish employers who hire illegal immigrants. But who's going to enforce it? I missed the part where we had law enforcement to spare. Are we willing to pay the cost to hire our own team of immigration enforcement officials? Are we willing to trust that the law won't be selectively enforced?
I'm far from an expert on immigration, but if we're willing to expend the resources, wouldn't it be wiser to make sure that employers were following the law regarding labor (safety) and wage standards?
Sophia - you missed the point.
Nolte is charged with going after the immigration issue and has accomplished nothing. It would be one thing for Nolte to say "this is a federal preemption issue and state's have no right to wander into this issue." Instead, to appeal to a certain class of voters, Nolte only thumps his chest.
Your point about enforcement is valid, but misses the point of the original post.
I hear that Terry Stone is back for a re-match in 08. Something about a fundraiser with Jay Nixon. That shows real leadership by Nixon and real hope for a Stone campaign. Wasn't this a real close vote last time?
anon 9:12,
I didn't miss the point of the post. I chose to respond to the substance of the proposed legislation rather than the cynicism inherent in the post. But as long as we're there... I don't see good things coming out of calling out republicans for not following through with their racist pandering.
The name Semler comes to mind.
I agree this legislation should have passed! Congratulations to Rep. Kraus for sponsoring this important legislation!!
So how come Nolte can't get it passed in the Missouri House and Senate, when both are controlled by Republicans? Either he is ineffective or his own party doesn't like him.

I guess that except this way, I must lose my some flyff penya. He said that I should level a little bit more and told me that I can go to buy flyff penya to improve my character. That thought slipped flyff money away pretty fast while I was training and chatting with my guild mates. I did not think of what I thought was fun before getting flyff gold that thought in my head. If you think a game is looking lame, try it before you say it out loud, you might like it to make some cheap penya.
Yesterday, my boyfriend gave me a lot of Asda Story gold and I buy Asda Story Gold as the gift to return him. The Asda Story money is attractive and I have plenty of the cheap Asda Story gold.
