The more foreign nationals Biden illegally imports, the more benefits & privileges they are given, the more American citizenship is degraded. Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson, 2024 candidate for governor, has taken the lead with House Bill 1889, which his office drafted and the Democrat Governor Jay Inslee signed. Illegal aliens residing in Washington can now obtain professional licenses using their Employer Identification Number (EIN).^
Heretofore, to obtain any type of employment license an applicant had to provide a Social Security number. These “super citizens” will get to keep more of their earnings than Americans are allowed to keep, because they will not be paying Social Security and Medicare taxes, nor will their employers be paying THEIR half. This provides an incentive for employers to hire illegals instead of Americans. As time goes on, this will, no doubt, hasten the collapse of these already weakened programs for the elderly, as employers kick ever more Americans out of the workforce and replace them with illegals.
This new statute also wipes out the citizenship requirement that was required for some professions, like optometry, private investigators and notaries, which had required applicants to be United States citizens to qualify for licensure. Indeed, it removes all barriers to illegal aliens obtaining all kinds for licenses and certificates, from lawyer to hairdresser, from doctor to electrician, from driver to CPA, from plumber to architect, from realtor to security guard . . . . Any professional license or certificate of accomplishment issued by the State of Washington will be given to foreign nationals residing in America illegally.
“This bill will open doors for careers in teaching, health care, accounting and many other professions to those who are ready to join the Washington workforce,” Inslee said at the bill signing. THAT is the problem, Mr. Inslee! Lawbreakers should not be rewarded and, once rewarded, will be emboldened to break other laws.
OF SECURITY GUARDS AND LAWYERS
Speaking of security guards: Will they be given licenses to carry firearms? Each legislative session since Inslee has been residing in the governor’s mansion (going on 12 years), Extreme Left Democrats (who own the state) have chipped away at our Second Amendment Rights. Chip. Chip. Chip. Indeed, at the same time Inslee signed this “super citizen” bill into law, he signed three bills making it harder for LEGAL Washingtonians to exercise their right to bear arms. Will illegal aliens who obtain licenses as security guards be given permits to carry firearms, too?
Speaking of lawyers: This bill was signed just two days after the Washington Supreme Court lowered the standards for obtaining a licence to practice law in the state. The stated purpose of lowering standards is to license more “marginalized” people. Illegal aliens are becoming less & less “marginalized” everyday, are they not? Indeed, if this trend continues, it will be Americans who will become “marginalized” in the State of Washington, and perhaps the rest of America.
SANCTUARY STATE
Washington is a sanctuary state which signs up foreign nationals, legal & illegal, for Obamacare upon arrival paid with Americans’ tax dollars. As of March 2021 the numbers show that 3.9% of Washington’s residents are illegal aliens, or roughly 300,000. This number does not include Biden’s Guests (or, as Biden calls them “newcomers”). Inslee’s office will not release current numbers, but it is estimated that at least 75,000 “newcomers” have arrived since the southern border was opened in January 2021. By the way, some illegals sneak across the northern border which the state shares with British Columbia, Canada.
It’s difficult to estimate how many people might pursue jobs under the new licensing statute. However, representatives of several local universities told lawmakers the bill would benefit their “undocumented” students. University of Washington Tacoma Campus’ representative said the school enrolls roughly 200 “undocumented” students every year, which is about 5% of the school’s student body.
Washington State is beginning the creation of a country where more & more residents are not citizens, thereby degrading & eventually eliminating the concept of American citizenship. Indeed, this state is setting up a two-tier caste system where some residents are above others, where some must follow federal law (pay Social Security & Medicare taxes), while others don’t. Will this spread to other states? Where will America be twenty, thirty years from now?
HERE IS ANOTHER LAW WHICH AG FERGUSON DRAFTED AND GOVERNOR INSLEE SIGNED IN 2024:
It Is Now Illegal To Make Illegals Feel Uncomfortable
^ Legal immigrants have always been able to obtain said licenses.
