Many have asked why Trump, despite the largest deportation effort on record, is not targeting employers. It's another law and court problem we must overturn head on.

‘Under 15 employers a year’ are prosecuted for hiring illegals since the practice became federally unlawful in 1986. The big majority of these only face fines. The law says you are guilty if you ‘knowingly employ’ illegals, which is both difficult to prove and easily dismissed by judges and lawyers alike.

An effort to change the law itself, expand punishment for egregious complicity in illegals staying inside the United States, thus to include politicians and employers, should be pursued at a state & federal level.
