Letter To The Editor:

Illegal immigrants cost the American taxpayer 50 billion dollars a year in services that they are not entitled to which violates Federal law that reads as follows: A person (including a group of persons) business, organization or local government, commits a Federal felony when he: assist an alien whom he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him to obtain employment, encourages that alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him to an employer, by acting as an employer or agent for an employer in any way, or knowingly assist illegal aliens due to personal convictions.

Penalties upon conviction include criminal fines, imprisonment, and forfeiture of vehicles and real property used to commit the crime.

To report these people to ICE a dept. of homeland security, have name, company, rental owners, and addresses ready and phone 1-866-342-2423 .. follow menu for real person, you do not have to give name.

State Rep. Eric Watson states in his Banner ads said that he sponsored a bill to stop giveaways to illegals, well I don't know if it passed but I do know it hasn't stopped. I was in Wal-Mart when a Mexican male, female, and child were in line in front of me purchasing 83 dollars worth of merchandise and paying with a food stamp card. When the cashier said they owed $8.32 that was not covered, the man said "no, no, no, they tell us we no have to pay." The cashier finally got through to him but he still did not agree.

Folks, it is out of control and our politicians think their job is to run around doing nothing. The county will be wanting to raise taxes soon for more schools because we are letting illegals fill them up. Guess who will bear the cost? 50% of all children born to illegals are illegitimate. That means we support them, not the fathers. Being illegal there is no way to track the father.

We need to replace all politicians, local, state, and federal. They have proven their worth in this matter... Zero. Wake up, get your head out of the sand. Quit being led like sheep to the slaughter. Let's try a new bunch, can't be no worse. Now is the time to change, because if you don't, you deserve what's coming. In the meantime, turn everyone who is violating the Federal law in to ICE.

Robert Lawson, Cleveland.
