News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Site targets firms that may hire illegally

A popular Web site that allows people to anonymously accuse employers of hiring illegal workers has irked business owners, raised the ire of immigration authorities and shows that anti-illegal immigration forces are focusing on employers.

Wehirealiens.com is operated by a citizens group that says it's trying to fight illegal immigration by publicizing suspected illegal employers on its site and reporting them to federal authorities.

Critics say the site is part of a troubling movement by anti-illegal immigration groups to "out" businesses and individuals on the Internet.

It is among several sites that attempt to embarrass employers, but what makes the site so popular is what makes it controversial.
