Illegal alien problem grows
“ Most often you're talking about a
desperate, deprived individual who just
wants to make a living.''
But the question must be asked if
allowing aliens to enter the country
illegally is the best way to help them,
Conversano said As more and more come
in it's evident that 's not the case, he said
T here have been th reats to form
vigilante groups in some area of the state
because of the influx of illegal aliens into
the job market, he said
Solution to the problem rests in
Congress. Conversano believes There is
currently a bill being considered that
would add 2,000 more employes to the
im m ig ra tio n service, plus add more
money, for a short time at any rate, to
transport illegal aliens out of the country.
But moat important the legislation would
make it illegal to knowingly hire an illegal
alien.
“ If someone knows it's going to cost
him to hire these people, the job market
for illegal aliens would begin to dry up If
there's no jobs for them here, the incentive
to come will begone too'', he said
Similar legislation has been proposed in
Congress the last two years Both times it
passed the House but died in a Senate
Judiciary subcommittee headed by Sen
James Eastland, D Mississippi
But there are indications the bill might
have a better chance this year, due to the
overwhelming impact of illegal aliens on
the economy, Conversano said
