Most Of California's Prop. 187 Ruled Unconstitutional
LOS ANGELES (AllPolitics, March 19) -- A U.S. District Court judge has declared most of California's Proposition 187 unconstitutional.
Approved by voters in 1994, the proposition would have denied health care, education and welfare benefits to illegal immigrants. Almost immediately, Judge Mariana Pfaelzer granted its opponents' request for a restraining order, which prevented it from taking effect.
In her final ruling, Pfaelzer rejected California's attempt to regulate immigration, which she said is the federal government's responsibility.
Judge Pfaelzer's ruling strikes down portions of the initiative that would have required law enforcement, teachers, social service and health care workers to verify a person's immigration status. Under Proposition 187, they would have had to report illegals to authorities and to deny them social service, health care and education benefits.
The American Civil Liberties Union's Southern California chapter was one of the five groups which sued to stop Proposition 187. In a statement, ACLU spokesman Mark Rosenbaum said Pfaelzer correctly denied California's attempt to regulate immigration.
"[It is] not a matter for individual states to attempt to formulate their own rules and procedures," Rosenbaum said. "School teachers and doctors are not substitutes for INS agents."
But California Gov. Pete Wilson, who supports Proposition 187, vowed to appeal, "so that the will of the people can be upheld."
Add to that the fact that California tax payers have for years paid more to the Federal Government then what they recieve and the mystery of why California is drowning in debt is not such a mystery. For every tax dollar paid by California only 78 cents is spent for Califonia by the Federal Govenment.

Amnesty was given 12 years ago already!
1997: The US government passes the Immigration Amnesty Bill giving amnesty to all ... Additional Details It has not been just Obama. There is a history here of politicans catering to the corporations who hire these illegals then saying "Lets make them legal to collect taxes" then the process begins again. More illegals enter and are hired. The ones who are legal are laid off. E-Varify can be used by all employers to check legal status but it is not mandantory for employers to use the system. I too cannot get full time work because I am not Bilinguaral. That is how employers discrimninate against those who are citizens, and worked their entire lives here and paid taxes. We don't know Spanish so we are unqualified regardless of our experience and education. I have an A.A. Degree, a B.S. Degree and had a 26 year career! And can't even get a job at a McDonald's (worked for them twice before in the past before going to college).

Why are you such a hater?!
It's not illegals messing up California and the U.S., it's your stupid corrupted government.
Maybe if you haven't noticed the government steals money from everyone.
How are there illegals if this is a so called "free country".
And plus first of all THIS IS THE MEXICAN TERRITORY, THE US STOLE THIS LAND AND DID NOT GET IT FAIR AND SQUARE.
You're just mad because your jealous of illegals. |

Obama will want to have tea or coffee with them and make friends!
And, bow before them like he did in the middle east. Ever get the idea this guy is 'out to lunch'? And, watch Hilary Clinton laugh at the U.S. captain who is kidnapped by pirates. Obama is 'irritated' by the kidnapping and Hilary just plain laughs at kidnapping-she'd laugh at your kidnapping,too!:

America is getting over crowded. Simple statement of fact. Therefore, immigration should be stopped and resources used for the American people only. Charity should begin at home. I am not surprised that Obama wants to give illegal immigrants amnesty. He is afterall a socialist. Socialists never put country first, and the will of the people is always secondary to their crackpot ideology. But Obama is what people voted for, and now they have to pay the price. In the meantime, he is spending tax payer's dollars on millionaires, while others less fortunate lose homes and jobs. Nice one! |
