Here is an email from Delegate Jackson Miller. The video is an interesting little debate. When you listen, keep in mind that we subsidize our universities. Thus, by giving illegal immigrants the same access to our schools we give to citizens, we create yet another illegal immigrant magnet. Since the power elite very much enjoy the cheap labor provided by illegal immigrants, they don’t mind if middle class taxpayers pay for these magnetic little enticements.

During the 2011 Virginia General Assembly Session, we will be debating many issues that are important to the Commonwealth, but one issue of particular significance to me is illegal immigration. As a former police officer with almost two decades of experience, I have seen firsthand the effect that illegal immigration can have on a community. As your Delegate, I am working hard to find solutions to the many issues and challenges that illegal immigration has presented in our communities and in our Commonwealth.
Recently, I appeared on Fox News Channel’s morning program, Fox & Friends, to defend a bill on which I am a co-patron. This bill, HB1465, stipulates that illegal aliens will not be eligible for admission to Virginia’s colleges and universities. Higher education is a privilege, not a right, and placement in Virginia’s colleges and universities has become increasingly difficult for legal residents of our state to obtain. This bill will require that all prospective students submit appropriate documentation showing proof of citizenship or a student visa for eligibility for enrollment.
Click to watchHB 1465 Del. Chris Peace (R-97) Provides that “an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States shall not be eligible for admission to any public institution of higher education in Virginia,”introduced by Del. Chris Peace (R-97). Please click on the video below to watch my appearance on Fox & Friends this past Saturday, January 15th in support of the bill. Here is the text of the bill.
Here is a summary of the bills I have introduced:
HB 1934 – Provides that the Superintendent of State Police shall seek to enter into a memorandum of agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement that would allow the State Police to perform certain federal immigration law-enforcement functions in the Commonwealth. Such an agreement is often referred to as an agreement under the federal 287(g) program.Please click here for the text of the bill.
HB 1914 - Requires the Virginia Employment Commission to use the E-Verify program for each individual the Virginia Employment Commission refers to an employer to perform work within the Commonwealth. The bill also defines the E-Verify program.Please click here for the text of the bill.
I encourage you to stay informed and engaged, on this very pressing issue. Please do not hesitate to contact my office with any further concerns or questions, about illegal immigration, or my other bills currently introduced in the House of Delegates. You can contact me by phone at (703) 244-6172 or by email at deljmiller@house.virginia.gov.

If the Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, Congress and the White House are really serious about stopping the massive financial baggage of illegal immigration, why have they not overruled Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) and mandate the computer verification program? E-Verify must be considered an invaluable tool to reject both existing working and new hires foreigners, who are in the mainstream of the workforce, taking jobs from birthright citizens, naturalized citizens and legal residents. Illegal Immigration cannot be separated from Obamacare or the terrible education predicament we are in? When many States are teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, we must start to erect some of barrier against the continuous influx of illegal aliens and their families looking for work and a better life, when Americans and legitimate immigrants must come first.
When talking about spiraling taxes, when governors are looking for more revenue, they have not the backbone to explain that large portions of taxpayers’ money is being siphoned off to support birthright citizenship of babies, specifically in Arizona, California, Texas and New Mexico. But then every state today is exposed to illegal immigrants being transported throughout our country. Once here the county hospitals are bombarded with new arrivals in the emergency rooms with obviously no insurance and placing the whole financial measure on taxpayers. Emergency rooms are inundated with illegal people with sore throats and carrying flue germs and not such things as appendicitis or serious injuries. Let me repeat these web-pages at http://www.jpands.org/vol10no1/cosman.pdf defines the issue as a monolithic concern for hospitals across the United States. Read this Health Care report and start spitting blood and bile.
Along the border many hospitals have sunk into insolvency, as they can no longer finance the incessant flow of illegal aliens, as in the majority of cases the Federal government has failed to reimburse fees. Education for illegal alien children to K-12 is a major problem forced on us by illogical laws, as without permanent residency the students cannot claim any rights to any further education. In the Sanctuary state of California the schools are overcrowded with children from across its border, which on arrival have no conception of the English language or American culture. In that by court order these children must be educated, the education of American children has sunk to a new low as teachers are expected to give them full support. The GAO fully supports a upgraded version of E-Verify, no matter how the Liberal-Democrats smear its operations.
There is continuous innovation to its ability to locate illegal labor, which is not just workers on farms, but in Janitorial services, construction, and entertainment and service companies. Not “just jobs that Americans won’t do” but jobs found in Casino’s, factories and not just poorly paid employment. E-Verify has expanded its Photo Matching Tool and stopped accepting expired documents from the I-9 form. The (GAO)(Government Accountability Office’s) reports that E-Verify is still susceptible to fraud, enabling illegal labor who engage in identity theft or fraud to trick the system into authorizing them for work. The GAO has considered biometrics as a possible solution, so it’s a surprise and disappointment that they have overlooked the obvious: NumbersUSA has addressed this by saying “the Social Security Administration could seal the loophole almost entirely if it would simply notify workers with more than one employer making contributions to their social security account numbers.
Then ask them to report if they were not actually working for each of those employers. SSA, however, has a policy of not informing the victims of identity theft.” Obviously–in time the E-Verification operation will become even more accurate in finding and removing illegal workers. The question should be asked, if that worker is disqualified, why should this not reported to ICE to follow up as names and addresses to chase down that worker, to see if they are legitimately in the US? When 15 million Americans are jobless, it seems commonsense to locate these people for deportation? Sometimes I wonder who either political party is working for. The amazing fact to me is why it’s not a felony to enter a country without permission, or why E-Verify is not a reducer of foreign aliens taking jobs of Americans.
The Tea Party and its advocates in Congress and in State Capitols should demand that E-Verify be applied in every business and an annual check of all workers, as the HMS and SSA program becomes more proficient in seeking out illegal aliens working under bogus documents.
