Pretend for a minute that your friend is a legal immigrant, you give her a gift (which legally would be considered "aid"), and you suddenly learn her immigration lawyer screwed up so she gets deported as an illegal immigrant until the processing error can be corrected. Thus, you unknowingly committed a felony because you gave a present unknowingly to an illegal immigrant, one that is a highly educated lawyer so you never would have suspected otherwise. That's what the bill says would happen to you. This means you would have to ask anyone with an accent, "could you please show me your green card, before I give you your birthday gift, because I want to make sure you aren't illegal." Don't you think that's a nutty requirement? RE: " the law doesn't directly go after employers" There is a law already on teh books. The problem is the govt doesn't enforce it. Look at Walmart. This bill doesn't distinguish between employers and others. An employer has a legal right to see a green card, but others do not, so why should others be held responsible? RE: "bario" What % were criminals vs hard-workers? Were the majority of the criminals that you may have seen unemployed? I suspect they were.
