Virginia businesses unite to fight illegals – (illegal is not a noun) – (the title should read ‘to fight illegal immigration crackdowns’)
Tagged: VirginiaPosted on: December 9th, 2007
Virginia businesses are uniting to fight illegal immigration crackdowns targeting employers, saying the torrent of new proposals would only duplicate what the federal government already requires.
Virginia Employers for Sensible Immigration Policy is contending that most of the new proposals targeting employers who hire illegal immigrants will be thrown out in court because the federal government supersedes state laws.
“We’re into sensible, responsible, workable, effective things,” said Keith Cheatham, a vice president of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce. “Unfortunately, a lot of what I’m hearing and seeing fails the tests.”"*
