Department of Homeland Security Sued Over E-Verify Requirement
2009-01-01 00:32:00 In November, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) implemented a new rule through the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) that would force companies doing business with the federal government to clear their workers through a verification database. This database is called E-Verify and it electronically confirms whether a new hire is in the United States legally and therefore eligible to work on a federal project. It works by comparing the name of the queried worker against submitted I-9 forms - the Social Security Administration’s paper based means of verifying worker status - and the DHS’s 60 million records of immigrants. Currently participation in E-Verify is voluntary. According to the October 23, 2008 DHS press release, over 92,000 employers have used E-Verify, with nearly 7 million queries made in Fiscal Year 2008, and 450,000 queries so far in Fiscal Year 2009. In 96% of the queries made, the worker is deemed eligible to w...

Homeland Security: Stop using term “war on terror”
2008-05-29 23:29:00 Of course “terror” could somehow offend muslims so we better come up with a better term. Now be a good Dhimmi and do what you’re told! The west needs a more comprehensive strategy to counter al-Qaeda propaganda and the US should stop using the term “war on terror”, according to a top intelligence official. Charles Allen, the senior intelligence official at the Department of Homeland Security, says the phrase is counter-productive because it creates “animus” in Islamic countries. “[It] has nothing to do with political correctness,” Mr Allen said in an interview. “It is interpreted in the Muslim world as a war on Islam and we don’t need this.” Michael Chertoff, the Homeland Security secretary, does not agree with suggestions that the phrase is equated with a war on Islam, says Russ Knocke, his spokesman. “We are at war with terrorism, and its underlying ideology – not Islam – and we’ve gone out of our way to make that point,” says Mr Knock...
