Green Card, Yellow Card, Red Card, & Migrant Labor

 

Among the many issues raised, real or imagined,  regarding immigration, the basics are about legal v. illegal migration, the need for labor, and the processes.

As it stands, through the magic of metaphor, ICE raids a business--a restaurant, goes into the kitchen, and finds 10 migrants working.  The operative word is "working".

As it is now, those who are here illegally are arrested and slated for deportation.  This of course hurts both the responsible as well as hurting the business(es) that rely on migrant workers.

Enter, a new paradigm:

The Green Card (in force and understood)

The Yellow Card, this for minor infractions but does not rise to the level of removal.

The Red Card, for major infractions resulting in removal.


Hence, ICE raids the restaurants, checks credentials, finds 4 workers who are here illegally but are actually working and contributing to the economy, and issue Yellow cards.  They find 4 workers who are here both illegally and engaged or engaging in criminal misconduct.  They issue Red Cards and they are arrested and processed for removal.

This helps migrants who are responsible.

This helps business (including farms and farmworkers)

This helps the larger community by protecting the community from unbridled criminal misconduct.

Just a thought.
