KEY WEST – An investigation by federal authorities last week led to the arrests of 13 individuals at the Naval Air Station Key West, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.Among those picked up, the agency said, were Mexican nationals Victor Morales-Echavarria, 24, and Miguel Delangeo, 23, who were undocumented and ‘’in possession of fraudulent’’ green cards. The U.S. attorney’s office agreed to prosecute the matter, ICE said.

Two other men were arrested on outstanding state warrants and nine on state fraudulent identifications charges, the agency said.

More than 120 individuals who did not have proper naval IDs were escorted off the base. All those arrested and escorted off base were employed by general contractors, the agency said.

l:Senator Jeff Sessions (R,AL) has attached an amendment to the Senate Minimum Wage bil

Business lobbyists believe lawmakers will ultimately strip from Senate minimum wage legislation any sanctions against companies caught hiring illegal immigrants. Whether they can keep it out of immigration law is another matter. The Senate, by a 94-0 vote Thursday, inserted a federal contracting ban for businesses that violate immigration laws into a bill that would raise the federal floor on hourly pay from $5.15 to $7.25 over two years,” the AP reported. “Under the provision, offered by Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., companies caught hiring illegal workers while on a federal contract would be banned from government work for 10 years. Other companies discovered with illegal workers would be prohibited from getting federal contracts for seven years.”

Course as you can see business lobbyists are confident they will derail this amendment.

Look, Illegal Immigrants are SUPPOSED to be FINED $5000.00 for ILLEGAL BORDER CROSSING !! Here is a PICTURE to PROVE it ! It is written in English AND Spanish !!! Now some in Congress want to LOWER the Fine to $2000.00 for their guaranteed pathway to citizenship ( IE To BUY a US Citizenship and have ALL their crimes washed away )

Well, we all know that this is quite the farce!
