re: As a practical manner, how are we going to remove all the illegal immigrants?

Most state governments have been accessories to illegal immigration by not doing everything that they can to stop employers from hiring them. By requiring all businesses and government agencies to e-verify prior to employment, this problem could be greatly reduced. I wonder why so many states are so lax with doing this? Hmmm. Must be a reason. I wonder if they fear losing a large chunk of the workforce or maybe a backlash from employers?
