But during the holidays the crossing bustles with Central American immigrants from various U.S. communities who trek across with secondhand cars and other goods they plan to sell in their homelands. The holidays are &#8216;the hottest time,\u2019 Javier Pacheco, a 42-year-old Honduran, said Tuesday. &#8216;Everybody wants to get there before Christmas.\u2019 For four years, this bridge has been the only one to accept these &#8216;transmigrantes,\u2019 so named for the visa given them by Mexican officials for a beeline some 1,500 miles through Mexico.&#8221; So &#8220;transmigrants&#8221; is another name you\u2019re going to have to add to your lexicon out there when dealing with the whole subject of illegal immigration. <\/line><BR\/>From Chicago: (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/today.reuters.com\/news\/articlenews.aspx?type=domesticNews&#038;storyID=2006-12-22T123654Z_01_N21205063_RTRUKOC_0_US-IMMIGRATION-SANCTUARY.xml&#038;WTmodLoc=USNewsHome_C2_domesticNews-1\">story<\/a>) &#8220;With Christmas fast approaching, Elvira Arellano dispatched her 8-year-old son to Washington to plead her case and that of other immigrant families who fear being torn apart by deportation. The Mexican-born Arellano, 31, cannot go herself because she has been fighting a deportation order since August from inside a Chicago church where she has imprisoned herself, invoking the ancient medieval protection of sanctuary. According to the Pew Hispanic Center, there are 2 million families in the United States with mixed status&#8230;&#8221; Anyway, it\u2019s one sob story after another today at Christmastime on the plight of the poor illegal immigrants and just how difficult it is and it\u2019s made all the much harder because cold-hearted and cruel Americans get really cold-hearted, steel-hearted and cold at Christmastime and don\u2019t understand they\u2019re just human beings &#8220;trying to feed their families.&#8221;<\/line><BR\/>From San Francisco: (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/today.reuters.com\/news\/articleinvesting.aspx?type=bondsNews&#038;storyID=2006-12-22T004017Z_01_N21212877_RTRIDST_0_CALIFORNIA-HEALTHCARE.XML\">story<\/a>) &#8220;A senior California Democrat proposed on Thursday that employers pay to expand health care coverage to all uninsured children in the state, including those of illegal immigrants&#8230;&#8221; This is taking Prop 187 and throwing it right back down the throats of the people that voted for it. This guy is basically saying to all of you in California who voted for Prop 187&#8230; You remember what Prop 187 was. Prop 87 was a California ballot initiative that said: we\u2019re not going to pay health care and benefits and benefits and education for the children of illegals, and it passed overwhelmingly and a federal judge said: You can\u2019t do that! It\u2019s unconstitutional! I have more power than you do. (Raspberry) Now the California Democrat here that has proposed this:<\/line><BR\/><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/rush_is_right_2.Par.0002.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"140\" height=\"276\" class=\"alignright\"\/>&#8220;Democratic Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez unveiled his plan to extend health care coverage to uninsured children by requiring employers to pay for insurance, or to have them pay a fee to the state,&#8221; if they don?t pay for the insurance. &#8220;Firms with fewer than two employees&#8230;&#8221; (laughing. So that means the self-employed. &#8220;Firms with fewer than two employees or with an annual payroll of $100,000 or less and small businesses open for less than three years would be excluded.&#8221; Arnold Schwarzenegger, the moderate Republican governor, &#8220;called Nunez\u2019s plan a significant contribution to the health care debate We all agree &#8212; the current system is broken and it needs to be fixed, Schwarzenegger said in a statement.&#8221; So if you have an annual payroll of less than a hundred grand in California, or if you have fewer than two employees, you\u2019re exempt! (Laughing.) It\u2019s not funny, but it is. Every time I go to California, &#8220;What are we going to do, Rush?&#8221; &#8220;You\u2019re stuck. I\u2019m leaving tonight, and you\u2019re pretty much stuck here.&#8221;<\/line><BR\/>(<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tucsoncitizen.com\/ss\/local\/36412.php\">story<\/a>) &#8220;Arizona has ended Nevada\u2019s 19-year reign as the nation\u2019s fastest growing state, fueled by&#8221; transmigrants.
