SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2 A U.S. federal judge said employers would face an enormous burden under a Bush administration plan to clamp down on the hiring of illegal immigrants.

Judge Charles R. Breyer, of the U.S. District Court in San Francisco, Monday extended a temporary ban on the Bush plan and indicted he was leaning against the government's case, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

"It is clear to me at this point there would be irreparable harm to the plaintiffs," Breyer said, noting he would issue a final ruling within 10 days.

The Bush plan establishes steps an employer must follow after getting a "no-match" letter from the Social Security Administration reporting an worker's identity information doesn't match federal records. If the worker couldn't clarify the mismatch within 90 days, the employers would be required to fire the worker or risk prosecution for knowingly hiring illegal immigrants, who often give false information when seeking jobs.

Business and groups, who brought the lawsuit, said the plan would cause "substantial, immediate and irreparable" harm.

Worthless(to americans)Judges
By: Bobby , Wed, 03 Oct 2007 00:15:16 GMT

These judges are never, ever concerned about American citizens. Especially the liberal ones. Everyone and anyone comes first, before Americans do, in their book. We deserve every single thing we get coming down the pike, because we allow this cr-p.

Hiring Of Illegal Immigrants

Does Judge Breyer not understand the words illegal immigrants. Judge Breyer should enforce the laws against illegal immigration. Judge Breyer's job is to uphold the law, and his opinion doesn't matter on this. The law is the law.


Court delays...

So, Judge, your solution is to just let the criminals stay rather than have the employer expend a little energy to see if he has illegal workers,huh? Didn't mean to wake you up. I believe most employers know from the getgo that they are employing illegals.By the way, what's in this for you?


SF Federal judge

Since when do left-wing Federal judges (most of them appointed by Clinton) have the right to stop the Federal government from doing its job? I say impeach this judge! This is insanity.
