A bill introduced by Representative Debbie Riddle - a Republican - is designed to "get tough" on Texas' illegal immigration problem. Sharky&Sharky like "tough" and especially like it when it applies to all those illegals invading our country to take away our McJobs and cut our grass.
From the bill, House Bill 1202: anyone who "intentionally, knowingly or recklessly" hire an "unauthorized" illegal immigrant could face up to two years in prison and fines of $10,000. Two questions. One: How in the hell do you hire someone in a reckless manner? By exceeding the speed limit when you pass a day laborer pick up point? Second: What in the hell is an "authorized" illegal immigrant?
The second question may be answered by reading deeper into the bill. Household workers - slaves and nannies to the rich - and yard workers are exempt from the bill. Thanks goodness someone has some sense in the Lone Star State - otherwise a large segment of the population is likely to find themselves in jail.
Luckily, vacations in Texas also seem to be bigger as the Texas legislature only convenes once every two years so the bill is likely to be modified prior to passage.
Takes a lot of work to keep those yards and ranches looking sweet - no time to tend the business you were elected to attend to.
