S. 1645, the Agricultural Job Opportunity, Benefits, and Security Act, would encourage more illegal immigration by rewarding certain illegal aliens who work in agriculture with amnesty. It would also reward illegal immigration by protecting illegal aliens granted temporary resident status from prosecution for Social Security fraud.
H.R. 3052, the State Accountability and Identity Fraud Elimination Act, would withhold highway apportionments from states that have a policy of granting driver's licenses to illegal aliens. This would create a disincentive for states to reward illegal aliens with driver's licenses.
S. 1545, the DREAM Act, would reward illegal aliens under the age of 21 who have been physically present in the country for five years and are in 7th grade or above with amnesty. An estimated 500,000 to 600,000 illegal aliens would have qualified for this amnesty. It would also reward illegal aliens under the age of 21 who have been physically present in the country for five years and are in 7th grade or above with in-state tuition rates at colleges and universities.
H.R. 1684, the Student Adjustment Act, would reward illegal immigration by adjusting the status of certain college-age illegal aliens to legal permanent resident for the purpose of receiving in-state college tuition rates. It would also be a defacto amnesty to grant legal status to certain college-age illegal aliens who would qualify to receive in-state tuition rates. An estimated 500,000 to 600,000 illegal aliens would have qualified for this amnesty.
H.R. 773, the 21st Century Access to Banking Act, would authorize financial institutions to accept matricula consular ID cards as a valid form of identification. This would have allowed illegal aliens to use the non-secure and non-verifiable matricula consular ID card to open bank accounts in the United States, thus making it easier for illegal aliens to live and work in the United States.
H.R. 687, the Identification Integrity Act, would prohibit federal agencies from accepting non-verifiable ID documents issued by foreign governments, such as the matricula consular. This would have prevented illegal aliens from being able to open a bank account or to apply for any federally provided public benefit.
H.R. 502 would have required a secure and verifiable ID be used to obtain Federal public benefits. This would prohibit federal agencies from accepting non-verifiable ID documents issued by foreign governments, such as the matricula consular, thus preventing illegal aliens from applying for any federally provided public benefit.
S. 8, the Educational Excellence for All Learners Act, would reward illegal aliens with amnesty by granting in-state tuition and amnesty to certain college-age illegal aliens. It would also create an incentive for illegal immigration by granting in-state tuition rates at public colleges and universities to certain illegal aliens.
