According to http:\/\/sensenbrenner.house.gov\/News\/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=77770<\/a>, Congressman James Sensenbrener plans to pass an anti-migrant bill HR4065 specifically targeting migrants without colonial papers.

This bill will

-Disburse $300 million\/year among the states to enact strict border enforcement operations

-More Customs and Border Protection officers would be stationed at ports of entry.

-Employers would be required to submit workers' Social Security numbers to the Social Security Administration for verification. (If there was a discrepancy, the employer would be required to verify the employee's identification. An employer's failure to act would result in \"severe penalties.\")

- The number of temporary visas granted every year to skilled workers would double, from 65,000 to 130,000.

(These are H1-B visas for workers in specialty occupations, who are admitted based on education, skills and\/or experience, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.)

- The program of granting H-2A visas to temporary or seasonal agricultural workers would be reformed.
