The Political Prosecution of Immigration Enforcement Agent Cory Voorhis
A federal grand jury is needed to get at the truth beneath the corruption and cover-up.
Who is Cory Voorhis and why should you care?
Cory Voorhis is a former Border Patrol officer and 15-year veteran of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE). He was charged in federal district court in Denver on Oct. 25, 2007 with three misdemeanor counts of "unauthorized access"' of a federal criminal database and now faces horrendous legal bills. He has also been placed on leave-without-pay by ICE, which is an unprecedented action against a law enforcement officer who has only been accused, and has subsequently been judged innocent on all counts in a jury trial.
Colorado citizens and all Americans who value the work of dedicated ICE agents need to support the Cory Voorhis Legal Defense Fund. We cannot let this good man and dedicated public servant fight this battle alone. Cory Voorhis is a hero, not a criminal.
Your donation to Cory Legal Defense is very much needed and appreciated. Cory Voorhis's attorney is William Taylor, a former Assistant US Attorney, who is on staff with the Denver law firm of Holland and Hart. Voorhis' legal expenses to fight all charges, including job-related issues, have exceeded $400,000. These costs will financially devastate the Voorhis family. (For more information, see the CoryLegalDefense.com website.)
Please donate! All donations will go strictly to Cory's legal costs, through an authorized agent/trustee. You can donate here.
Smart Business Practices
Use of the E-Verify (formerly Basic Pilot Program) database makes smart business sense because it ensures that all new hires have a legal right to work in the United States. And, it protects employers from fines and penalties for knowingly or unknowingly hiring illegal foreign workers.
It also makes customers happy. Most Americans want to frequent businesses that hire legal workers.
Simply go to www.SmartBusinessPractices.com/pilot and enter the search criteria below to see lists of companies using the E-Verify program.
A June 2006 National Federation of Independent Business member survey found that 78 percent of small business owners support increasing penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal aliens, while a June 2006 National Association for the Self-Employed member survey revealed that eighty-two percent of micro-business owners oppose offering amnesty to all illegal immigrants currently in our country.

Reviews of special legislative session on immigration
Here are two views of the recent special legislative session on immigration (July 6-10, 2006). The first is from an op-ed in the Pueblo Chieftain, by Congressman Tom Tancredo. The second is a personal account of the session by CAIR spokesman Stan Weekes. Stan was present for the entire session.

It's now up to us
Estimates of the number of illegal aliens currently residing in the U.S. range from 10 to 20 million. Time magazine estimates that three-million illegal aliens from all over the world now enter the U.S. annually (with an conservatively estimated 250,000 currently residing in Colorado), far outnumbering the 1.2 million legal immigrants entering the country annually. The U.S. admits more legal immigrants than all of the countries of the world admit, combined. Massive illegal immigration is an insult to America's generous immigration policy.
Polls show that 70-80 percent of the Americans, across racial, ethnic and class lines, want illegal immigration halted. But the U.S. government continues to fail in its First Obligation: the protection of its citizens. Instead, the President and members of the Congress are again foolishly offering as the solution to illegal immigration the tried-and-failed amnesty approach. Since the "one-time-only" massively fraudulent 1986 amnesty, we have had six additional amnesties, proving that amnesties only encourage more illegal immigration.
The proponents of the several amnesties now before the Congress falsely claim that there are only two alternatives to illegal immigration: mass deportation-an impossible concept-and yet another amnesty (number eight), referred to under several euphemistic terms such as "guest worker programs," "regularization," "earned legalization," etc. There is a third alternative, however: attrition.
Just as a stool needs four legs to support it, attrition provides a four-legged solution to illegal immigration. Those legs are: 1) increased border enforcement, 2) increased interior enforcement, 3) sanctions against felonious employers of illegal aliens, and 4) ending government-sponsored benefits and entitlements for illegal aliens. As Gov. Lamm has noted, attrition will create self-deportation and help bring illegal immigration to manageable levels.
Because of the ongoing abdication on the part of the President, the Congress, the Gov. of Colorado and the state legislature, the responsibility for dealing with illegal immigration has now, by default, shifted to We the People.
Borderless Continent
Our intentionally unsecured borders and our government's deliberate and unapologetic lack of enforcement of our immigration laws is merely a precursor to a much larger goal - a "New America" in a borderless "North American Union." This New America would replace the traditional self-governing "Old America" for which our founders sacrificed and our soldiers fought to preserve. The Americans for Sovereignty website contains a wealth of information on plans for a borderless continent.
