Texas prisons checking immigration status
HOUSTON — Officials say Texas’ prison system is the first in the country to start checking an inmate’s immigration history by running fingerprints through a new federal program.
As of Tuesday, all prisoners booked into the Texas Department of Criminal Justice’s intake site in Huntsville will have their fingerprints checked with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s biometric system for any immigration record.
Any matches with the biometric system are reviewed and appropriate action is taken after a prisoner completes his sentence. Top priority is being given to illegal immigrants who have prior convictions of major drug offenses, murder, rape, robbery and kidnapping.
Eventually, all 24 Texas prison system intake sites across the state will have this capability.

All You Need to Know About Michigan Redneck
Welcome to the home of barstool politics!
Michigan Redneck is a former Republican Loyalist, who is now a Libertarian minded chick. She loves the USA and will do all she can to keep this republic a republic. She loves Rockabilly music, clothes, decor and Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, but is not a hipster. She grew up in the Flint, Michigan area and is currently living in the Upper Peninsula. She is a blue collar worker who is eligible for many gubmint handouts who refuses to sign up for these programs. She pays her bills according to which utility threatens to shut her off first. She struggles was raised that to get what she wants and needs, work for it.
Her political views lean towards Fiscal Conservative. Believes the gubmint needs to get out of the way and let the free market work. Believes both of the two main political parties need to get out of the business of social issues. In this blog I will alert readers of what is going on around them in my outside the box way. I WILL call out hypocrites, from all sides of the aisle.

SOMETIME THIS YEAR–THE PEOPLE–will be fighting against another Immigration reform package? AMNESTY! Don’t listen to the politicians who state our borders are secure or that our fence has been completed. It’s a sordid lie, rhetoric! We have a drug war going on, that’s infiltrated our border cities and towns, even to the extent of extending into communities nationwide. Our country is under assault of illegal foreign nationals who are committing, murders, rapes, home invasion robberies, burglaries and an ongoing battle against drunk while driving foreigners, using their uninsured vehicles as killing machine. The drug dealers and mass illegal immigration is just part of our national problem?
In Sanctuary cities and states such as California the very economy is under attack, because of the utter contempt of the Liberal Sacramento assembly for unceasingly giving of welfare benefits to illegal alien families. Schools cramped to the hilt, with the children of poor illegal immigrants. The Welfare lines that have been compromised by dishonesty and theft from true Americans. Prisons and jails deleted of funds. State budgets that are on the edge of financial disaster, because decades of political parties have pandered to the parasitic business world.
We have our own workforce that can be trained for any kind of job, instead of importing more and more foreign nationals. The greed of corporate world is just manifest in America, to undermine the working conditions of US WORKERS. Citizens and legal residents already here should not have to compete with more imported labor, no matter what successful rung of industry. In the British Isles the working class is turning to (BNP) THE BRITISH NATION PARTY that will end forced immigration laws dictated to the indigenous English people. Read about the growing, all encompassing membership of ordinary people who are sick and tired of growing occupation of an infestation of Middle Easterners, Commonwealth people, Asylum seekers, refugees that are being catered to, while the real British people are being ignored.
These foreigners are demanding their laws be enacted, including multiple wife’s and Sharia law. It’s disgusting and outrageous and the British parliament has used scare tactics, propaganda, as they are running scared knowing the Labor/Conservative and generic political parties may have seen their final days. Their Slogan says it all,” British jobs for British Workers.” Learn more at http://bnp.org.uk/ about this people’s party that will remain undisclosed by the Liberal/Socialist media in the US. Even my very Conservative family in England have joined the BNP, because of the complete and irrational desire of the European politicians to demand English/British worker first?
In Los Angeles the law has been circumvented to allow illegal alien criminals walk away free. Murders by gang bangers are rife in Los Angeles and San Francisco, where many illegal alien criminals still walk the streets, collecting fraudulent welfare using bogus documents. Another AMNESTY means–CHAIN MIGRATION–of poor uneducated, non-English speaking, sick, handicapped family members, that Federal mandates have imposed on US taxpayers. Another Amnesty means more foreign nationals will come bringing their unpalatable customs, contagious diseases and criminal element, all to cater for predatory businesses.
Any politicians, who are in collusion and keep pushing for another AMNESTY, must be extracted from office. Sen. Harry Reid eviscerated E-Verify, along with Pelosi. Sen. Feinstein who reintroduced the AGJOB act. Liberal Sen. Cedilla who wants drivers licenses for law breakers. These lawmakers are just the tip of the corrupt lawmakers. Remove them all–BEFORE IT”S TO LATE. Or just keep on paying higher and higher taxes to support the millions of illegal immigrants. Read the truth at JUDICIALWATCH, NUMBERSUSA, and CAPSWEB.
I agree with most everything you say. But would like to elaborate on “The Welfare lines that have been compromised by dishonesty and theft from true Americans.”
The real welfare theft is against the hard working tax payers. I am against welfare in all shapes, sizes and forms. There should not be welfare of any kind. Not to illegals especially, but also not to Americans. Get rid of welfare and you will have angry Americans going after the illegals. Cause right now alot of the apathy can be attributed to people who say that if an illegal takes their job, just go on assistance. If there were no assistance to fall back on, more Americans would fight tooth and nail against these fence jumpers. Whatever happened to the idea of hard work and if ya want something, work for it.
Oh yeah, and what is up with welfare mommas having an attraction to illegal Mexicans. I can see the “attraction” the illegals have to them, but what’s in it for the welfare momma?
