PRINCE WILLIAM, Virginia -- Prince William County delegates are preparing legislation targeting homes teeming with illegal immigrants and sanctioning jurisdictions that are lax on the aliens.
The proposals would add to a cornucopia of proposals already in the works. The State Crime Commission, for example, already has recommended 17 measures to lawmakers that would give police more power to detain illegal immigrants and begin deportation proceedings against them. More lawmakers are also expected to formulate bills as the General Assembly session’s January start nears.
Del. Robert Marshall, R-Manassas, said he would introduce a bill that would allow counties and other local jurisdictions to fine owners of overcrowded homes $4,000 instead of the current $2,500. The bill also would permit jurisdictions to fine the owners $1,500 per person living in a home over the legal limit.
“We are making it very expensive to break the law,” he said.
Another reason to hold politicians from both parties accountable for the refusal of the Federal government to enforce existing immigration laws already on the books.
Overcrowded homes will drive down the value of your home and your neighbor's home. Many of you reading this already have first hand experience when 25 illegals move into a house next door to you. Specifically, the front lawn is now used as a parking lot and garbage is dumped all over the place and imagine the amount of water it takes just to flush this one toilet.
Think about it, the biggest investment you will probably ever make will be destroyed by Democrats and Republicans refusal to enforce the law. Just one more reason to clean both their houses come election time.
