So well said… and representative of all us Purple People! ๐
This wasnโt what I had planned to write about.ย I had planned to post some photoโs of a quilt I am making for my friendโs first grandchild, but as I said before, sometimes life gets in the way.
Friday morning, Sydney time, I woke up to the news. PRINCE. IS . DEAD.ย Every part of me screamed no but the only thing that came from my mouth was Oh Fโฆ!ย Friday was like wading through mud.
I am not one that shares their private emotions readily.ย Friends at work on Friday knew I would be upset with the loss of Prince but I donโt think they really understood how much or why.ย I donโt want to offend any person but the best way I can express what I want to say is by way of a letter to Prince.
I thought of addressing this to Mr Nelson, butโฆ

Before there was green beauty, there was Jane Iredale. When I was looking for cleaner makeup nearly 20 years ago, I found an apothecary in NYC that carried this iconic label. Iโve been using the products ever since. Though never claiming to be natural or green, this company certainly paved the way for many other green brands to follow and continues to push the trends. The latest Spring releases* are as eco-chic and wearable as ever.
The Spring Collection blooms with the prettiest blush, a gorgeous eyeshadow set, and brow colorsโeach in their own skinny compact thatโs easy to slip into a purse for touch ups. Plus, thereโs a pretty caramel colored lip gloss that wears like rose gold on the lips.

IMMIGRATION REFORM THAT WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
The three core principles of Donald J. Trump’s immigration plan
When politicians talk about โimmigration reformโ they mean: amnesty, cheap labor and open borders. The Schumer-Rubio immigration bill was nothing more than a giveaway to the corporate patrons who run both parties.
Real immigration reform puts the needs of working people first โ not wealthy globetrotting donors. We are the only country in the world whose immigration system puts the needs of other nations ahead of our own. That must change.
Here are the three core principles of real immigration reform:
1. A nation without borders is not a nation.ย There must be a wall across the southern border.
2. A nation without laws is not a nation. Laws passed in accordance with our Constitutional system of government must be enforced.
3. A nation that does not serve its own citizens is not a nation.ย Any immigration plan must improve jobs, wages and security for all Americans.
Make Mexico Pay For The Wall
For many years, Mexicoโs leaders have been taking advantage of the United States by using illegal immigration to export the crime and poverty in their own country (as well as in other Latin American countries). They have evenย published pamphletsย on how to illegally immigrate to the United States.
The costs for the United States have been extraordinary: U.S. taxpayers have been asked to pick up hundreds of billions in healthcare costs, housing costs, education costs, welfare costs, etc. Indeed, the annual cost of free tax credits alone paid to illegal immigrants quadrupled to $4.2 billion in 2011. The effects on jobseekers have also been disastrous, and black Americans haveย been particularly harmed.
The impact in terms of crime has been tragic.
In recent weeks, the headlines have been covered with cases of criminals who crossed our border illegally only to go on to commit horrific crimes against Americans.
Most recently, an illegal immigrant from Mexico, with a long arrest record, is charged with breaking into a 64 year-old womanโs home, crushing her skull and eye sockets with a hammer, raping her, and murdering her.
The Police Chief in Santa Maria says theย โblood trailโย leads straight to Washington.
In 2011, the Government Accountability Office found that there were a shockingย 3 million arrests attached to the incarcerated alien population, including tens of thousands of violent beatings, rapes and murders.
Meanwhile, Mexico continues to make billions on not only our bad trade deals but also relies heavily on the billions of dollars in remittances sent from illegal immigrants in the United States back to Mexico ($22 billion inย 2013ย alone).
In short, the Mexican government has taken the United States to the cleaners. They are responsible for this problem, and they must help pay to clean it up.
The cost of building a permanent border wall pales mightily in comparison to what American taxpayers spend every single year on dealing with the fallout of illegal immigration on their communities, schools and unemployment offices.
Mexico must pay for the wall and, until they do, the United States will, among other things: impound all remittance payments derived from illegal wages; increase fees on all temporary visas issued to Mexican CEOs and diplomats (and if necessary cancel them); increase fees on all border crossing cards โ of which we issue about 1 million to Mexican nationals each year (a major source of visa overstays); increase fees on all NAFTA worker visas from Mexico (another major source of overstays); and increase fees at ports of entry to the United States from Mexico [Tariffs and foreign aid cuts are also options]. We will not be taken advantage of anymore.
Defend The Laws And Constitution Of The United States
America will only be great as long as America remains a nation of laws that lives according to the Constitution. No one is above the law.
The following steps will return to the American people the safety of their laws, which politicians have stolen from them:
Triple the number of ICE officers. As the President of the ICE Officersโ Council explained in Congressional testimony:ย โOnly approximately 5,000 officers and agents within ICE perform the lionโs share of ICEโs immigration missionโฆCompare that to the Los Angeles Police Department at approximately 10,000 officers. Approximately 5,000 officers in ICE cover 50 states, Puerto Rico and Guam, and are attempting to enforce immigration law against 11 million illegal aliens already in the interior of the United States.
Since 9-11, the U.S. Border Patrol has tripled in size, while ICEโs immigration enforcement arm, Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), has remained at relatively the same size.โ This will be funded by accepting theย recommendationof the Inspector General for Tax Administration and eliminating tax credit payments to illegal immigrants.
Nationwide e-verify. This simple measure will protect jobs for unemployed Americans.
Mandatory return of all criminal aliens.The Obama Administration has released 76,000 aliens from its custody with criminal convictions since 2013 alone. All criminal aliens must be returned to their home countries, a process which can be aided by canceling any visas to foreign countries which will not accept their own criminals, and making it a separate and additional crime to commit an offense while here illegally.
Detentionโnot catch-and-release.ย Illegal aliens apprehended crossing the border must be detained until they are sent home, no more catch-and-release.
Defund sanctuary cities.ย Cut-off federal grants to any city which refuses to cooperate with federal law enforcement.
Enhanced penalties for overstaying a visa.ย Millions of people come to the United States on temporary visas but refuse to leave, without consequence. This is a threat to national security. Individuals who refuse to leave at the time their visa expires should be subject to criminal penalties; this will also help give local jurisdictions the power to hold visa overstays until federal authorities arrive. Completion of a visa tracking system โ required by law but blocked by lobbyists โ will be necessary as well.
Cooperate with local gang task forces.ย ICE officers should accompany local police departments conducting raids of violent street gangs likeย MS-13ย and theย 18th street gang, which have terrorized the country.
All illegal aliens in gangs should be apprehended and deported. Again, quoting Chris Crane: โICE Officers and Agents are forced to apply the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Directive, not to children in schools, but to adult inmates in jails. If an illegal-alien inmate simply claims eligibility, ICE is forced to release the alien back into the community. This includes serious criminals who have committed felonies, who have assaulted officers, and who prey on childrenโฆICE officers should be required to place detainers on every illegal alien they encounter in jails and prisons, since these aliens not only violated immigration laws, but then went on to engage in activities that led to their arrest by police; ICE officers should be required to issue Notices to Appear to all illegal aliens with criminal convictions, DUI convictions, or a gang affiliation; ICE should be working with any state or local drug or gang task force that asks for such assistance.โ
End birthright citizenship.ย This remains the biggest magnet for illegal immigration.ย By a 2:1 margin, voters say itโs the wrong policy, including Harry Reid who said โno sane countryโ would give automatic citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants.
Put American Workers First
Decades of disastrous trade deals and immigration policies haveย destroyed our middle class. Today, nearly 40% of black teenagers are unemployed. Nearly 30% of Hispanic teenagers are unemployed. For black Americans without high school diplomas, the bottom has fallen out: more than 70% were employed in 1960, compared to less than 40% in 2000. Across the economy, the percentage of adults in the labor force has collapsed to a level not experienced in generations.
As CBS news wrote in a pieceย entitled โAmericaโs incredible shrinking middle classโ: โIf the middle-class is the economic backbone of America, then the country is developing osteoporosis.โ
The influx of foreign workers holds down salaries, keeps unemployment high, and makes it difficult for poor and working class Americans โ including immigrants themselves and their children โ to earn a middle class wage.
Nearly half of all immigrants and their US-born children currentlyย live in or near poverty, including more than 60 percent of Hispanic immigrants. Every year, we voluntarily admit another 2 million new immigrants, guest workers, refugees, and dependents, growing our existing all-time historic record population of 42 million immigrants.
We need to control the admission of new low-earning workers in order to: help wages grow, get teenagers back to work, aid minoritiesโ rise into the middle class, help schools and communities falling behind, and to ensure our immigrant members of the national family become part of the American dream.
Additionally, we need to stop giving legal immigrant visas to people bent on causing us harm.
From the 9/11 hijackers, to the Boston Bombers, and many others, our immigration system is being used to attack us. The President of the immigration caseworkers union declaredย in a statement on ISIS: โWe’ve become the visa clearinghouse for the world.โ
Here are some additional specific policy proposals for long-term reform:
Increase prevailing wage for H-1Bs.
We graduateย two times more Americans with STEM degreesย each year than find STEM jobs, yet as much as two-thirds of entry-level hiring for IT jobs is accomplished through the H-1B program. More than half of H-1B visas are issued for the program’s lowest allowable wage level, and more than eighty percent for its bottom two.
Raising the prevailing wage paid to H-1Bs will force companies to give these coveted entry-level jobs to the existing domestic pool of unemployed native and immigrantย workers in the U.S., instead of flying in cheaper workers from overseas. This will improve the number of black, Hispanic and female workers in Silicon Valleyย who have been passed overย in favor of the H-1B program.
Mark Zuckerbergโs personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities.
Requirement to hire American workers first.
Too many visas,ย like the H-1B, have no such requirement. In the year 2015, with 92 million Americans outside the workforce andย incomes collapsing, we needย companies to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed. Petitions for workers should be mailed to the unemployment office, not USCIS.
End welfare abuse.
Applicants for entry to the United States should be required to certify that they can pay for their own housing, healthcare and other needs before coming to the U.S.
Jobs program for inner city youth.
The J-1 visaย jobs program for foreign youthย will be terminated and replaced with a resume bank for inner city youth provided to all corporate subscribers to the J-1 visa program.
Refugee program for American children.
Increase standards for the admission of refugees and asylum-seekers toย crack down on abuses. Use the monies saved onย expensive refugee programsย to help place American children without parents in safer homes and communities, and to improve community safety inย high crime neighborhoodsย in the United States.
Immigration moderation.
Before any new green cards are issued to foreign workers abroad, there will be a pause where employers will have to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed immigrant and native workers. This will help reverse women’s plummetingย workplace participation rate, grow wages, and allow record immigration levels to subside toย more moderate historical averages.
