They already are, despite lying xenophobic propaganda.

Under federal law, it is illegal for any employer to engage with illegal immigrants in the following manner:

Hiring illegal immigrants
Recruiting illegal immigrants
Referring illegal immigrants for work and receiving a fee

This also includes hiring contractors who use illegal immigrants. There are criminal and civil penalties associated with this conduct.

It is also illegal for employers to not verify work authorization. Three days after an employee is hired, employers should correctly complete an I-9. Failing to do so will subject employers to criminal and civil punishment.
What Are the Penalties for Hiring an Illegal Immigrant?

Hiring illegal immigrants can lead to many severe penalties, such as:

Criminal and civil fines
Loss of business licenses

Most fines are broken down to the following:

First offenders can be fined $250-$2,000 per illegal employee.
For a second offense, the fine is $2,000-$5,000 per illegal employee.
Three or more offenses can cost an employer $3000-$10,000 per illegal employee. A pattern of knowingly employing illegal immigrants can mean extra fines and up to six months in jail for an employer.

This does not include “harboring” illegal immigrants, or employing ten or more illegal immigrants in one year. Harboring an illegal immigrant can lead to ten years of prison time.

Additionally, employers should be aware of the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. Employers can be sued under the act for hiring illegal immigrants, and can face large settlement deals.

The lawfully documented workers of the Zirkle Fruit Company settled a class action lawsuit brought under RICO. The suit alleged that their employer knowingly hired undocumented workers, driving down their wages. -

Not just the employers. Illegals should be punished for entering the country illegally, and democrats should be punished for encouraging illegals to enter this country illegally.

Illegals are already punished when apprehended.

You can punish Democrats at the polls in November.

As NeoCons are so fond of saying:

We don't need more laws targeting illegal immigration.

We simply need to enforce the laws already in place.

Is it democrats or GOP wanting cheap labor?? @ best or perhaps worst, both would seem to have a lil skin in the game~~~~~~ & that is NOT why nothing has been done:rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
I suspect that most JPP cons and many Trumptards in general don't really care about immigration law, they just hate brown people.
