Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
Helen Krieble and Greg Walcher of the Vernon K. Krieble
Foundation propose a new approach to the illegal immigration issue
- a private sector initiative that may unite a divided political
base. The Krieble Plan includes absolute border control and a new
legal guest worker program. But unlike other pending plans, it
allows private businesses to open offices abroad and empowers them
to conduct instant background checks and issue guest worker
permits. The Plan addresses the two powerful incentives keeping
10-15 million workers illegal: a bureaucratic system that doesn't
work and an artificial limit on their number. Krieble argues that
the answer to both is as old as America itself - the free market -
and new polling data backs the claim that this plan can achieve
broad support.
Please join us for a presentation of their innovative approach for
answering this long vexing illegal immigration issue.
