“If this was a such a priority for them, why didn’t they pass it over the last two years?”
The tactic, which cops have deployed for months in states like Oklahoma, is a new twist in “civil forfeiture,” a controversial legal process that lets police seize funds from motorists if they suspect money is tied to a drug crime. Critics, however, liken the practice to banditry—noting the police use forfeiture to pay themselves, and that citizens must take extraordinary legal measures to get their money back.
The arrival of the handheld ERAD machines, which stands for Electronic Recovery and Access to Data, comes at a time when fewer people are carrying cash. They work by imitating the payment terminals found at ordinary retailers, and allowing cops to slurp up the values found on pre-paid cards for Visa (v, +0.68%) , Starbucks (sbux, +3.01%) and so on.
For now, it appears the ERAD devices are only able to siphon funds from pre-paid cards, and not from a driver’s personal bank account or credit card.
Patrick saysOf course if Trump were really serious about protecting US workers, he would be proposing mandatory prison time for all employers of illegals. But he hasn't done that, so that inspires doubt.
I'd say D's would have much harder time fighting against this proposal as it would involve weeping CEO's hauled off to prison instead of weeping minority womyn on TV. Perhaps that is why it is not suggested? Or R's are dead set against this proposal, since their sponsors would be ones going to prison?
But has Trump been good for your personal security and prosperity

I use an electric shaver every morning on my way into work. Been doing so for over a quarter century. Time saver!

Yes and she was sitting on the dashboard in front of him.
So your counter to his accusation that it’s a witch hunt is that he’s a witch?
You can't argue with the level and degree of Stupid that the Liberals will stoop to.
Well you can, but then that would make you a Democrat as well.
