Driver's Rights Bill 60

In 1931, the California legislature barred any company doing business with the state from hiring “alien” workers on public jobs, forcing the removal of Mexicans from construction work, highway repair, school maintenance, and jobs in government buildings (Sanchez 211). At the same time, officials in Los Angeles

In 2005 congress passed a law where in order to have a driver's license you must be able to prove your citizenship, but this act did not change the fact that illegal immigrants were coming into the country. To raise the number of illegal immigrants even higher there was another law that

The writer, Maribel Garcia Ochoa, begins her piece with making the claim that because of Donald Trump being elected, California shaped this “defensive” attitude. Then Ochoa supported her claim with the evidence of the immigration policy issue. In addition, she believes that, “SB 54 would prevent the use of state and local resources to assist federal deportation efforts.” In fact, SB 54 has been recently amended in Senate on March 6, 2017. Another claim that Ochoa made was that California’s immigration policy was not completely for Asians it was also towards Mexicans. Ochoa used statistics, “Early into the ’30s, over 15 million Americans, about one quarter of all wage earners, were unemployed,” to show that once Mexicans entered California the unemployment rate of whites skyrocketed.

On August 15, 2012, the same day that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services began accepting applications under the Obama administration’s new Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer issued an executive order preventing the state of Arizona from issuing driver’s licenses and public benefits to young undocumented immigrants who receive deferred status and work authorization under the

There has been many laws and regulations passed, to try and prevent illegal migrants from working in the United States. In all states, businesses “Are required by federal law to check the legal status of all new hires. They must fill out federal form 1-9 to show that each worker holds federally acceptable residency documents, like a driver’s license or social security card” (Speizer 1). Although they must do all of those things, they are not required to check the authenticity of the documents. In Arizona that has all changed, a new law has been passed that makes it mandatory for all employers to participate in E-Verify “in which information from 1-9 documents can be checked through databases at the Social Security Administration or the Department of Homeland Security” (Speizer 2). This used to be something businesses could voluntarily partake in, but has now become mandatory in Arizona. Under this law they have created harsh punishments for employers who knowingly hire undocumented migrants. One of these harsh punishments includes the loss of the employer’s business license, if it is a reoccurring issue. They hope that this new law will decrease the amount of undocumented workers in the state and create more jobs for their own U.S. citizens.

Should illegal immigrants be given a driver`s license in California? In the Sacramento Bee article “License battle resurfaces” by Jim Sanders on February 26, 2012, the author informs that Assemblyman Gil Cedillo tried again to grant driver`s licenses to undocumented immigrants which were vetoed by Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger years ago, but now Gil Cedillo wants to work with Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown on this issue that can “pass muster” because Latinos played a key role to help Brown get elected in 2010. In 2011, Brown signed the dream act to expand college financial aid for undocumented immigrants who have lived in California for years, so many Latinos cheered him. As a

In the United States of America there are an estimated 11 million illegal immigrants currently residing in the U.S. Many industries depend heavily on immigrant labor , legal and illegal, to achieve productivity. The construction industry, nationally , employ at a fast rate about 1,000,000 illegal immigrants; almost one in five illegal immigrants work major industries. (Passel,2006). Immigrant reform will undoubtedly reduce the supply of illegal immigrant by encouraging enforcement of current laws by creating new legislation with harsher penalties for illegal immigration. The enforcement of the new laws will allow for industries to allow employers to recruit and hire foreign born workers only with signs of identification. However for the industries

Other police departments have practices prohibiting or discouraging officers from verifying immigration status, and many departments have no official stance. Some departments proactively reach out to immigrants in their community without regard to immigration status in order to build trust.” Leitner and Strunk identify Arizona and Alabama as good examples of states that have passed laws laws that target immigrants by, “…requir[ing] local police to determine the immigration status of persons arrested or detained, if there is reasonable suspicion that they are in the country without authorization.” Conversely, Srikantiah states that California has, “…enact[ed] laws granting undocumented immigrants

As Franklin D. Roosevelt said “Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists.”As much as people try twisting the president 's words, president Roosevelt meant that this country was founded by immigrants, and therefore we should be accepting. 11.5 million can stand for many things but, in this case according to Pew Research Centers 11.5 million is the number of illegal immigrants that live in the United States as of 2013.One thing that everyone know’s is that Arizona is the number 1 state in the United States that has the most immigration problems. Arizona 's anti-immigrant law, S.B. 1070, Lets Police ask the immigration status of anyone arrested or detained if they suspect that the person is not in the U.S. legally. with this new SB 1070 law it makes it so it is a crime to be caught without papers in the state of Arizona. The state of Arizona should abolish the SB1070 law.

An anti-illegal immigration legislative act in 2010 in the state of Arizona. The Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act or Arizona Senate Bill 1070 required all aliens over the age of 14 residing in the country for more than 30 days to have registration documents in their possession at all times. This policy allowed law enforcement officers to determine a person immigration status whenever there was a reasonable suspicion of the individual being an illegal alien. The law enforcement officers were able to ask for the individual documents during an arrest, detention, or lawful stop. The SB 1070 have not been the first racial profiling policy in Arizona. The state of Arizona has passed other restrictive policies

California citizens consist of 39% Latino, 38.8 White, 5.8% Black, 13.0% Asian, and less than 1% Native American (Lecture 2, California Diversity). It is stated that according to California Governor Jerry Brown’s new state budget, Latinos are projected to become the largest single racial/ethnic group in the state by March of 2014 (Hugo Lopez, Mark. 2014). The large increase in the Latino population over recent years has become such a huge media topic in today’s news because people think that America’s immigration policy and laws are too loose and are allowing people to cross the border illegally. Our current president Donald Trump believes that our immigration laws are horrible and allows criminals to cross the border into the U.S. which is making Americans lose jobs and cause crime rates to rise. He stated various time that he wants to make laws that would prohibit such people from coming over to America. This isn’t the first time that diversity has affected policies that the government has made. An example of this would be Proposition 187, the "Save our State" initiative. This initiative banned public services such as education and emergency care to undocumented peoples in California (Lecture 2, California

According to the Legal Arizona Workers Act, which is also sometimes referred to as the “Employer Sanctions Laws,” came into effect on 1st January, 2008 (Legal Arizona Workers Act, n.d.). This act basically forbids and disallows the businesses from knowingly or deliberately engaging the illegal alien or the unauthorized alien after December 31st, 2007. Under this statue an unauthorized alien can be defined as the alien who do not have the legal rights and privileges or the authorization under the federal law to work under the United States (Legal Arizona Workers Act, n.d.). The case explains to be excused from the NLRB authority as an opinionated and political divisions and subdivision of the state, the employer must moreover, be produced unswervingly by the state in order to constitute and comprise a department or an organizational

People who enter the united states illegally must not obtain a driven license, because they committed an illegal act. They can not be reward for doing something that is against the law. Enter the united states illegally have to be punish for the governmet, and giving illegal

In the agriculture industry a “standard” is to hire illegal employees even though it is against the law. Although companies ask new employees for proof of authorized employment, if the employer determines that the documents appear to be genuine then employers are not held legally responsible for receiving false documents.

10) There is a group called the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund that supports Cedillo 's idea of allowing illegal aliens to posses driver 's licenses, but feel that there should not be any background checks or other restrictions(Kline par. 13). The MALDEF feel that every citizen of Mexico coming into California should receive a license, whether they are criminals or not. The old bill, AB 1463, was vetoed in the year 2000 by former Governor Gray Davis. Davis stated that AB 1463 was an "invitation for fraud (House par. 9)." But once Davis 's job was starting to crumble, he decided to pass the new bill ,AB 60, to try and gain more support from legal and illegal Hispanics in the state of California before he was recalled. After what had happened on September 11, 2001, Gil Cedillo withdrew the bill from Gray Davis 's files. However, recently the new governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, has been trying to bring a new a bill with more qualifications ,such as a special mark on the licenses to indicate that the holder is illegal, to help bring driver 's licenses to illegal immigrants (Kline par. 12). With this bill in effect, illegal immigrants would have the opportunity to vote for an official of the state and country they are living in illegally.
