Damn, missed it.

But sounds like they have the right idea:

• Requiring mandatory employer enrollment in the federal Social Security Basic Pilot New Employee Verification program.
• Eliminating all non-medical emergency, public benefits for illegal aliens and subsequently requiring verification of lawful presence in the United States to receive them.
• Terminating the professional license of any employer who knowingly hires an illegal alien
• Maintaining criminal history records of previously detained illegal immigrants.
• Withholding all state and federal highway funding from ”sanctuary cities" that either refuse to report or willingly assist illegal aliens with obtaining employment, housing, education, driver’s licenses or other types of financial assistance and taxpayer-funded, public benefits.
• Establishing tough criminal penalties for anyone convicted of human trafficking.
• Revising state tax codes to penalize non-profits for aiding and abetting illegal aliens.
• Enacting legislation challenging judicial misinterpretations of the 14th Amendment allowing “anchor babies" or children born of illegal immigrants in the United States to automatically obtain citizenship and receive taxpayer-funded public benefits.
• Changing banking laws to prohibit illegal aliens from obtaining access to all financial services, including wire transfers.

I really like what they're doing. Not sure if it will work or not. But I like it anyway.
