Filthy lucre, Senator Jake Files and the Arkansas Home Builders Association=LOGIC DEFICIENT          February 6, 2011<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

HB 1013 (allows state Contractor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Licensing Board to punish contractors who hire workers that are not in the U.S. legally) by Rep. Jim Nickels comes up for a vote Monday February 7, 2011.  The name of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153newbie\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Senator Jake Files continues to come to the fore. Files is a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153newbie\u00e2\u20ac\u009d for two reasons\u00e2\u20ac\u201da newly elected state senator and a recently birthed contractor (a conflict of interest). Files has been in several business endeavors, none appear to be very successful, yet he ran a very expensive campaign to garner a Republican state senator seat.  Question; was Files put in the senate seat by enablers such as Developer Richard Griffin, perhaps ERC for whom Files worked at one time?  The point being, has Senator Files given up the claim of being an ethical conservative state senator?  Files made this statement, in a conversation with Rod Coleman, CEO of ERC, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153for guys like you and me who try to do things right, this is yet another way of penalizing us.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I will continue to work this bill to get resolution and defeat\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Senator Files, you should tell your constituents what is right about hiring illegal aliens?  Your statement will not pass muster. Hiring illegals increases the bottom line, steals jobs, and exploits both illegals and taxpaying citizens.  A suggestion, to avoid this crisis, hire only bona-fide American citizens.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Some other statements by Fort Smith contractors:  Rod Coleman\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6\u00e2\u20ac\u009dthis bill is very bad for our industry\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  He should explain why this bill is bad for his industry. Is he saying that exploiting illegals bumps up his profit line?  Coleman further goes on to say that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153he has absolutely no control over subcontractors or suppliers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  Come now, can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t he do better than that?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

CEO of SSI, Leo Anhalt stated \u00e2\u20ac\u0153does not knowingly employ undocumented workers and does not knowingly contract with subcontractors who knowingly employ undocumented workers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  If workers can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t speak English, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s likely they are illegal.  Anhalt went on to say that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153HB 1013 seems to be requiring the general contractor to not only be responsible for its own workers, but also to be responsible for its subcontractors\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. He also said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s unreasonable but is also illegal for the general contractor to require the subcontractor to furnish the general contractor for review\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. What law? Since when is any business not responsible for its own workers? Would being a Catholic have anything to do with this position?  Bishop Anthony B. Taylor of the Little Rock Catholic diocese openly and flagrantly mocks sovereignty and the rule of law to advocate for open borders and illegal aliens. They are highly complicit in the formation of sanctuary cities.  Follow the Money!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

From the Arkansas Homebuilders Assoc., Julie Mills, AHBA, executive vice president opines:  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153There are 1600 members who employ over 25,000 Arkansans is united against the practice of hiring undocumented workers.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (Are the numbers cited meant to be intimidating?) With that said, one would feel good until she launches the Association views which state \u00e2\u20ac\u0153immigration and its subsequent enforcement as a federal issue, therefore, we must oppose HB 1013\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  (Say again?)  This is Governor Mike Beebe\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s excuse.  Mills continued \u00e2\u20ac\u0153the Contractor Licensing Board testified today, on record, for the House State Agencies and governmental Affairs committee, stating if the law passed it is not enforceable because the CLB cannot legally ask or be shown.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d  The Chairman, the well-travelled Greg Crow, had 5 agents 2 yrs ago, maybe more today, and their intended purpose, so said Crow, was \u00e2\u20ac\u0153to protect Arkansas citizens\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  Those agents\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 primary purpose was and is to go on job sites and view the workers and if they appear to be foreign nationals and fail to communicate in English their responsibility is only to report to the proper authorities\u00e2\u20ac\u201dICE, ASP, FBI, BATF, Sheriff, etc.  Ms. Mills went on to say \u00e2\u20ac\u0153it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s bad for business\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  She needs to explain how it is bad for business. Mills refers to contractor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s I-9, this form is a preposterous joke.  Attila the Hun could qualify for work with this document.  For viewing of I-9 www.uscis.gov\/files\/form\/i-9.pdf<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

  Mills did make one legitimate statement, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153what about other industries in Arkansas?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Mills admits all the contractors have to do is use the mandated E-Verify system, which solves the illegal problem immediately. It is 99% accurate. She then goes on to state that the Chamber of Commerce of the USA in litigation vs. Candelaria is in the Supreme Court and a decision is expected by this summer.  Another open admission that the Chamber of Commerce USA is a trafficker in illegals and the home builders obviously want and expect E-Verify killed and Mills is openly stating that numbers of contractors have not implemented the mandated E-Verify. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Have the aforementioned contractors and others no regard for the rule of law (8 USC, Sections 1325 (any alien who enters U.S. other than at port of entry by false or misleading representation shall be subject to civil and criminal penalties, can be fined and imprisoned. 1324a, (Hiring<\/strong>, harboring (aiding & abetting) illegal aliens a felony<\/span><\/strong>), 1324c (all law enforcement officers have the authority to arrest<\/strong>), 1644 (no local ordinance, rule, or measure shall stop law enforcement officers from enforcement of this section\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6(affirmed Southern District Court of NY, U.S vs. Rudy Giuliani, 1996) ?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The position taken by contractors is an unconscionable swipe in the face of middleclass Arkansas taxpaying citizens\u00e2\u20ac\u201dArkansas contractors are hiring illegal aliens by the tens of thousands and at the same time depriving citizens of employment and saddling taxpayers with the exploding costs of illegal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s healthcare, schooling, incarceration, food stamps, prenatal, housing, ad infinitum.   The contractors\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 bottom line is profit and they readily admit they are violating the rule of law in their hiring practices by saying among other things that it is only a federal responsibility, which it is not.  (8USC)<\/span><\/p>\n

The position the Arkansas Homebuilders Association, in the matter of hiring illegal foreign nationals is unfair competition to those contractors that choose to obey the law by not hiring illegals.  The NAHB has succeeded, by their illegal conduct, to destroy any number of law-abiding businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

If the contractors can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t succeed by hiring bonafide citizens then they should fail, just as any other business should. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The failure of HB 1013 will absolutely give the green light for contractors and other self-serving, law-breakers to bring in tens of thousands  more illegal aliens for exploitation.  <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

One of the horrific products of the illegal Mexican and OTM invasion was the awarding of free prenatal care along with ancillary services. On Jan. 4, 2011, a FOIA was filed with Ark. Dept. of Human Services to the attention of Judy Besancon, who is their chief counsel, to determine how many illegal foreign national women have received free pre-natal care, along with ancillary services, and how many anchor babies were born out of the taxpayer subsidized services.  (Would Files, Anhalt, Mills, NAHB, Coleman, & others care to pick up the huge monetary tabs produced by the illegals and their behavior?  It must be said that Gov. Beebe and his DFA Director Weiss claim they have no idea what the illegals presence is costing the Arkansas taxpaying citizens.  How is that possible? It isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t.)<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

In 2005 the above described travesty was hatched and implemented by the Huckabee administration and from July 5, 2005 thru Nov. 26, 2005 there were 2,765 illegal women who availed themselves of the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153free\u00e2\u20ac\u009d service\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6you can only imagine what the collective numbers are now.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

A response to the FOIA was received February 5, 2011 with fragmented information.  As usual the response from DHS is spotty, gives no specific numbers. The Office of Chief Counsel does admit that in the year 2009-2010 there was $567,146.30 spent in some capacity relating to childbirth.  The FOIA asked for specific numbers of clients (?) who were actually receiving free benefits concerning prenatal care. Again, they claim not to keep records.  If that is the case, how did DHS get reimbursed for their share of federal funding?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Ladies & Gentlemen of the legislature, this is criminal gluttony that we are hearing from Sen. Files and the Arkansas contractors.  Please pass this bill.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Kindest regards,<\/span><\/p>\n

P.S. A simple recap of the Constitutional, ethical, nation-threatening crisis we face as a state and nation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Exploitation:  <\/span><\/p>\n

1.      <\/span><\/span>The illegals are exploited by their home country by being forced\/encouraged to leave, thereby assuring billions in remittances sent home (taken out of our economy), and riddance of an unwanted illiterate, poverty stricken segment.<\/span><\/p>\n

2.      <\/span><\/span>The illegals are exploited by employers for cheap\/slave labor, accepting low wages for fear of detection.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.      <\/span><\/span>The illegals are exploited by the churches, organizations & anti-American groups who are after members, activists, voters, minions, donations, and government funding.<\/span><\/p>\n

4.      <\/span><\/span>They are exploited by government programs & agencies who seek greater funding and expansion.<\/span><\/p>\n

5.      <\/span><\/span>American citizens are exploited by their governments forcing more & more taxes to subsidize illegals & gov\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

6.      <\/span><\/span>American citizens are exploited by corporations seeking better profits through cheap labor and saddling citizens with illegal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s healthcare, housing, food, incarceration, ESL, translators, home social services, ad infinitum.<\/span><\/p>\n

7.      <\/span><\/span>American citizens are exploited by churches, organizations and anti-American groups dedicated to the destruction of Constitutional rule of law & individual rights.  These groups receive billions of taxpayer money per year, e.g. Catholic Charities, LULAC, ACORN, ACLU<\/span><\/p>\n

8.      <\/span><\/span>American citizens are losing their jobs, culture, heritage, borders, language, standard of living and most of all the respect & quest for honesty, morality, rule of law and national identity\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6thanks to greed & political correctness.<\/span><\/p>\n

9.      <\/span><\/span>Because of unchecked illegal aliens, American citizens are forced to endure the introduction of diseases once eradicated, persons with criminal or mental instability (e.g. child molesters, rapists, murderers, drunk drivers & other unlicensed drivers, thieves, human & drug smugglers), known & unknown organized gangs (e.g. 17 gangs in one small town of Fort Smith\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 including vicious, dangerous MS 13 & Los Zetas), non-English speaking students which hinder citizen children from learning properly, aid in the dumb-down, but increase funding for meals, ESL, translators, counselors, on & on.  <\/span><\/p>\n

10.    <\/span><\/span>The illegal aliens who sneak into our country leaving garbage by the tons, falsifying documents, stealing identities, trashing our neighborhoods, burgeoning the welfare system, stealing jobs, violently demonstrating in our streets, and thumbing their noses at our laws & Constitution are not the kind of people we should want, much less welcome into our society.<\/span><\/p>\n

Think about it, which side are you on?<\/span><\/p>\n
