Why do Republicans have a bill making it OK for the rich to use illegals as house help?
"Texas House bill: Hire an illegal, go to jail — but maids are. Reported by: Julian Aguilar, The Texas Tribune, Thursday, February 24 2011
The latest bill addressing illegal immigration and the hiring of undocumented workers in Texas would broaden the scope of employers subject to scrutiny — and extend the penalties for violators to include possible jail time and thousands of dollars in fines. Exempt from the proposed rule? People who hire undocumented workers as domestic helpers in their family homes.
House Bill 1202, authored by state Rep. Debbie Riddle, R-Tomball, would make it a state jail felony to knowingly hire undocumented workers in Texas. The bill would punish those who “intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly” hire or contract with an "unauthorized alien", or with someone who knowingly subcontracts with an undocumented worker. The maximum fine is $10,000, and guilty parties could face a stint in prison of 180 days to two years. (Riddle has also filed HB 17, legislation that would make being in the state illegally a trespassing offense.)"
It is still a federal offense to employ an illegal, why do rich Republicans don't want to pay and hire legals?
A Republican from Texas appeasing Obama. Surely you jest!
I used information that is in quotes and sourced as additional information.
I didn't know maids were the "economic engine" of Texas.

He became into impeached and finished his term yet no longer convicted of something. Clinton isn't the single working around claiming he creates jobs and for this reason merits a tax decrease. enable's look at Romney. the guy is taking credit for springing up jobs at activities Authority and Staple 10 damn years later. that's some trick and that i ask your self what those respective CEO's ought to assert approximately that. talking of which if tax cuts worked so nicely how come we've 10% unemployment whilst taxes have not been this low in 50 years. what's republican Eric Cantor's tale? he's giving freely tax subsidies to rewarding companies collectively as complaining with regard to the deficit and spending. A subsidy is a unfavourable tax. Spent funds. do no longer arise with the regulation crap the two. There are no new rules and however the Republicans communicate nonstop throughout the debates they by no ability point out any. yet on the different hand you're loose to drink all the undesirable milk and eat all the poison nutrition you want. purely enable it rot till now intake. something human beings opt to stroll out of the drugstore or super marketplace with nutrition and drugs that's suitable for eating and take. Edit: an outstanding and suspension isn't a conviction. I extremely have cousins who're attorneys. One is a decide.

"English said that exception was geared toward not “stifling the economic engine” in Texas, so that people who contract out for work in or on their homes don't have to vet everyone.
“It is an admittedly clumsy first attempt to say, ‘We are really focusing on the big businesses,’” English said. If homeowners hire lawn-care service, for example, English said, they shouldn’t be punished if a company employs undocumented workers."
I can copy paste too.

Because there aren't enough jails in Texas to house all of the people who hire illegals while screaming about how illegals are ruining our country.Arrest all of those OTHER guys but leave me and my maid/gardener/driver/houseboy alone.
