People will still be required to provide proof of citizenship to work for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Authored by Chair Hilda l. Solis and co-authored by Sheila Kuehl, the policy allegedly aims to better represent the ‘community’ in city government.
Solis noted an estimated 880,000 non-citizens live in Los Angeles and the county’s Public Defender’s Office had received ‘applications from non-citizens who are otherwise allowed to practice law in California but are disqualified from the application process because of the citizenship requirement’, according to Fox Business.
Los Angeles County Public Defender Ricardo García said requiring citizenship to work for the city government is tantamount to discrimination based on ‘cultural, racial, ethnic, or religious characteristics’.
‘Barriers to employment based on cultural, racial, ethnic, or religious characteristics are contrary to our core values. Citizenship overlaps these demographic characteristics’, García said. ‘This motion, by Supervisors Solis and Kuehl, will promote equity in hiring and give the Public Defender’s Office access to the most qualified applicants for employment, irrespective of their citizenship status’.
‘An immigrant’s experience will advance our vision, mission, and values to protect our clients’ legal and human rights and enable us to more readily realize my goal that our employees fully represent the demographics of the population that we serve’, García continued”. -Paul Bois, Breitbart
Illegal immigration isn’t the issue, too much immigration is. And legalizing those living in the U.S. illegally has only made the situation worse, as the consequences of the 1986 amnesty have conclusively demonstrated.
Meanwhile, it behooves the authorities to employ people who don’t identify as American because it enables them to do things that real Americans wouldn’t do to a fellow American, based on principle.
Foreigners not only feel virtually no affinity towards the American people, but they have not the slightest predilection for the Constitution, a document which wasn’t written for the tens of millions of post-1965 “economic migrants” presiding in the United States today.
Even if you think that these aliens will be every bit as competent at their jobs as the populace they have been brought in to replace would have otherwise been, at least consider the fate of the countless unemployed Americans, most of whom might have found work if millions of immigrants did not have those jobs.
And spare the pig-ignorant “jobs Americans won’t do” rationalization, which reveals nothing more than a failure to wrap one’s mind around the basic concept of supply and demand.
