Washington (EON) – Federal authorities are expected to showcase some new rules which will make it much more difficult to hire illegal immigrants and will force employers to fire workers who use fake Social Security numbers.
The new ruled are going to be backed up by a series of raids on workplaces across the United States whom employ these illegal immigrants.
Department of Homeland Security put forth the new rules last year but did not go through wit them as they wanted Congress to finish the new immigration bill first.
With no new immigration bill in sight many officials believe it is time to take things more seriously and install some tougher rules.
Russ Knocke, spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security stated that “We are tough and we are going to be even tougher. There are not going to be any more excuses for employers, and there will be serious consequences for those that choose to blatantly disregard the law.”

It is about time! If business wants to stay afloat, they will start having to pay a realistic wage to have work done. The slave-mongers on the left were defeated by compassion for human rights.
