S. 3083: 

Responsible Child Tax Credit Eligibility Verification Act of 2012

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:53 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Marco Rubio [R-FL] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

S. 3083, the Responsible Child Tax Credit Eligibility Verification Act, would end the child tax credit loophole that illegal aliens claim, defrauding American taxpayers of billions of dollars each year.

S. 2266: 

Scott Gardner Act

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:42 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Richard Burr [R-NC] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would require each state and their local law enforcement agencies to collect and report all immigration and DWI-related information as a prerequisite for receiving State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP, a program that provides assistance to states for the incarceration of illegal aliens) funding. DWI-related information would then appear as a flag on the wants/warrants page of the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database.

S. 2167: 

American Jobs in American Forests Act of 2012

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:45 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Jeff Merkley [D-OR] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would close certain loopholes exploited by companies who use H-2B unskilled labor visas instead of recruiting from the existing workforce. Specifically, it would require the Department of Labor to certify that prospective H-2B employers conduct a robust recruitment drive to find available United States workers, including advertising at job fairs, advertising with state and local recruitment agencies and nonprofit organizations, and advertising on local radio and the Internet.

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:47 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. Jim DeMint [R-SC, 2005-2013] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:

S. 723: 

Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:13 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. David Vitter [R-LA] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

S. 723, Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011, would end the process of granting automatic citizenship to the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens. This would put an end to a major source of U.S. population growth and remove an incentive for illegal immigration. It has been, and is currently, U.S. policy to automatically grant U.S. citizenship to the babies born to illegal aliens in the United States -- some 300,000 to 350,000 a year according to a spring 2005 article in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons. Not only do these births represent additional U.S.

S. 169: 

A bill to prohibit appropriated funds from being used in contravention of section 642(a) of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996.

Published:  Thu, Jan 23rd 2014 @ 3:19 pm EST

Sponsored by:  Sen. David Vitter [R-LA] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would prevent Community Oriented Policing Services Program (COPS) funding from being used to uphold “sanctuary policies,” which prevent law enforcement officials in local municipalities from investigating immigration status or reporting immigration violations to Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE). COPS is important to city, tribal, state, and other local law enforcement agencies because it awards grants used to update technology, hire and train police officers, and develop crime fighting strategies. Please see H.R.1764 for the House Companion legislation.

S. 86

Sponsored by:  Sen. David Vitter [R-LA] in the 112th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

S. 86 would prevent illegal aliens from receiving credit cards. The bill would require the banks that issue credit cards to ensure that those granted credit cards are in the United States legally by obliging the banks to verify the identity of applicants using REAL ID-compliant documents.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
