Immigration and Illegal Border Crossing

IMMIGRATION AND ILLEGAL SOUTHERN BORDER CROSSING

During President Reagan's administration the citizens of America were given to believe that if they allowed illegal immigrants to become Citizens then the Southern Border would be closed. How gullible we were. Behind closed doors the pro-illegal bunch must have been laughing themselves silly. They duped the President and the American people. The border was never closed – never even came close – there is no indication that they ever really intended to close the border.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

This time the sealing of the southern border MUST be the trigger event for the implementation of the of the remaining legislation.

To avoid any doubts about the status of the Southern Border, the requirements for “sealing” must be part of the legislation.

SUGGESTED SPECIFICATIONS FOR “SEALING”

1. An Israeli style fence (similar to the one the Israelis are building between Israel and Palestine) for the entire length of the Southern Border
2. Sufficient drones and associated manpower to provide constant 24/7 surveillance of the border and the fence.. There should be sufficient and manpower and equipment to provide 15 minute response times to detected border incursions.
3. Rewrite current Border Incursion language to provide mandatory minimum detention time, increasing one each detention.
4. Justice delayed is justice denied. Provision of 24/7 Border Incursion Hearings, so that once detained people trying to enter the USA illegally are taken directly to the Hearing Officer. Sworn testimony taken and any other material presented (25 minutes per side) and disposition by the Hearing Officer given within 10 minutes).
5. People who bring children across the border should also be subject to charges of child abuse/neglect especially if no adequate arrangements for child care have been made on the American side or the border of if the child has suffered physical damage.
   Once all of this is in place AND OPERATIONAL, and verified by the appropriate Inspector General, and approved by the appropriate Senate and House oversight committee(s) the trigger level is met and the remainder of the previously approved law takes immediate effect.

ANOTHER SERIOUS IMMIGRATION PROBLEM

Is people who over stay their legally acquired visas. Again much harsher mandatory punishments must be enacted. Also some method for tracing visa holders must be found.

SUGGESTIONS

1. GPS tracking device in the visa itself.
2. Visa holders MUST have the visa either on their person or with their reach at all times.
3. Each visa holder must appear on a designated day at an automated recognition center which will check their GPS and take a picture and match that picture with their file picture. This should be done once per month. Failure to appear on the proper day should be grounds for immediate detention with deportation following within two weeks. Deportation hearings to be held 24/7.
   In addition there should be some discussion about access to to Constitutional Rights and Citizen Privileges by non-citizens.

SUGGESTIONS: Regarding the 14^th Amendment,

We should explore repealing that part of the 14^th Amendment that grants automatic citizen ship to anyone born in the United States regardless of the citizenship of the parents.

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;
