Guess there is not a law that is enforced or regulates illegal hiring of immigrants. Learned something new again.
Judicial Watch: FEC Must Investigate Democratic National Committee for Employing I*****l A***n to Craft 2016 Political Message
SEPTEMBER 02, 2015
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a complaint with the Federal E******n Commission requesting that it investigate the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for having knowingly hired an i*****l a***n, Cindy Nava, to help craft the committees 2016 political message and communications. Judicial Watch filed its complaint on August 25, 2015.
A June 8, 2015, story in The Washington Post reported that the DNC hired Nava with full knowledge of what DNC chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) termed Navas undocumented status. The news report details that Despite not yet attaining legal status, Nava is working for the Democratic National Committee as one of a crop of fellows from around the country helping the party organize ahead of a p**********l e******n that President Obama predicted would feature immigration as a major issue. The Spanish language newspaper El Nuevo Herald reports that Nava would help coordinate DNC outreach to women, youth, and Hispanics.
Federal law prohibits foreign nationals from participating directly or indirectly in the decision-making process of federal, state, or local e******n-related activities.
The Judicial Watch FEC complaint charges:
The Democratic National Committee knowingly hired a Foreign National to assist, directly or indirectly, in setting the Committees Public Policy Agenda for its Candidates, the National Committee, and its Associated Organizations.
The United States has prohibited non-citizen participation in e******n related activities for over fifty years. The United States Supreme Court has held that such prohibitions are legally permissible under the U.S. Constitution
In 2002, Congress expanded the prohibitions on foreign nationals
to include anything of value that directly or indirectly contributes to a political campaign
The Commission has stated foreign nationals [cannot] direct, control, or otherwise participate directly or indirectly in the decision-making process of [a] PAC.
On its face, the DNCs decision to hire Ms. Nava is in direct violation of this provision. The FEC should investigate this matter further to determine the full extent of Ms. Navas responsibilities, her relationship to the policy making team, and her effect on the 2016 DNC e******n strategy.
The Democratic National Committee is Willfully and Knowingly violating Federal Law and Contradicting Federal Policy by Permitting a Foreign National to Contribute to the Conventions Campaigns, E******n Strategy, and Fundraising Efforts
The United States Congress created a federal offense to knowingly hire an i*****l a***n. It is against Federal law to hire, or to recruit
, for employment in the United States an alien knowing the alien is an unauthorized alien
There are two elements to this crime: (1) knowledge of the aliens status, and (2) an employment offer
Thus, the DNC is violating federal law by hiring Cindy Nava. Her fellowship constitutes expenditures under the FEC regulation, and therefore these illegal expenditures are within the scope of FEC regulations
They have actively employed Ms. Nava knowing that she lacked proper authorization to work in the United States.
Judicial Watchs request for a full, formal investigation concludes, These actions are particularly egregious because the DNC f**grantly promotes their illegal activities, lawlessness, and disrespect for the rule of law.
No wonder this nation has a border and an i*****l a***n crisis. Not only do we have a major political party knowingly employing an i*****l a***n, but also openly boasting about it to the nations press, said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. The DNC should be held accountable by the FEC for hiring an i*****l a***n in violation of both federal immigration and e******n laws. Frankly, the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security should also take appropriate law enforcement action.
