Which is why, Dear Reader, it will soon be a felony in Texas to employ an undocumented worker unless you are rich enough to be able to afford to hire household help.
Then it will be just fine to hire an illegal immigrant to work for you. Because Biff and Muffy will have the vapors if they can't hire Consuelo to cook and clean for them.
There is another aspect of the bill that is just pure thievery masking as taxes: There would be an 8% tax on wire transfers from Texas to Latin America, for there is nothing like putting more of a burden on the working poor.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.

Not to mention that a state tax on wire transfers to Mexico is blatantly illegal. The Constitution grants all power over interstate commerce to the Federal government. The moment any part of a commercial transaction involves any place outside the borders of Texas, it's illegal for Texas to tax it specially unless explicitly given permission to do so by the Federal government. This is especially true of international transactions. I don't think even the Bush-league Supremes we currently have would support any interpretation of the Commerce Clause that claimed that actual interstate commerce was not, in fact, commerce.
ReplyDeleteThe ACLU of Texas has their work cut out for them on this one...
