Threaten them at all. if anything, we need more work visas, the guest worker program created by the senate immigration bill is actually extremely small. one of the reasons rand paul voted against the immigration bill is because it doesnt create a workable market base guest worker program. if american companies cannot find american workers, they should be able to bring in the foreign workers that they need. government should not tell them. >> >> laura: so with 7.6 unemployment today you content t...

Lies in the hands of the u.s. house of representatives, where the prospects they are looking honestly pretty bleak. heres the headline from "talking points memo" senate passes immigration reform bill, hot potato to boehner. standing room only crowd chanted "yes we can" the vote 68-32. the gang of eight bill could provide legal status and a 13-year path to citizenship. guest worker program, and a so-called border surge. now the bipartisan bill in the senate says they have a solution but house maj...

Legislation. >> so youre running a construction company perhaps up in north dakota, perhaps down near the border around arizona. you have 25 people you have working for you, and a new guy comes looking for a job, and you suspect hes probably from across the border or he comes from a background you think might be a problem. you dont know. so you want to make sure you havent hired somebody illegally. how under this system can you be sure youre not breaking the law and be sure you have a good perso...

With e verify if they can get across our secure border which they wont be able to and you have a guest worker program so they can come legally and go back home. >> you sound like a great man, senator, governor, as good a tight al as well. but senator john hoeven thank you from north dakota. i hope you follow with that consistency right through the conference. i dont want to see any hanky-panky in the conference. this has to be a bill were proud to enforce for the next 350 years. youning us now...
