US to strengthen the current E-Verify system

Hmmm - do you think that may eventually help those of us trying to legally get to the US?

Mind you I don't suppose there's many, if any, illegally working as nurses! If there was the sudden loss in workers might make them get schedule "A" up & running again

This is exactly why there are frequent raids on nursing homes in CA for this very reason. They catch many that are working there illegally, and they are being deported. ICE has raids all of the time and the people that are picked up are placed in immigration detention for a period before they are deported and this is essentially a jail, they are usually attached to the federal prisons, and since the person is here illegally, they are not treated as if they were citizens. They are given the bare minimums, not much different than being at the base in Cuba right now, and they are locked up in cells the same way as well.

Deportation is for minimum of ten years, and not guaranteed that they will even be able to return. Even overstaying a tourist visa and if the person is stopped for whatevern reason, they have a straight pass to the detention center, and they not permit you to return home to get your things. What the person has with them is all that they will have.

Hope that some read this and become aware of what will happen. We still see people posting here all of the time that they have been out of status for a long time and are still in the US.
