Our goal is to make immigration safe and legal, ensure a steady work force, provide opportunity to those who love America, and secure our borders... by providing Mexicans with viable, affording neutering options.

"It is dangerous for our security here. Let's do it the right way. Let's get them visas." - Governor Schwarzenegger (CA-R), Austrian immigrant

Paste the text of this bill and send it to your congressman or senator with a strongly worded letter of support. Once introduced, it will surely pass with a will as strong as that of the people behind it, and our America just can’t afford to miss such a great opportunity to let our voices be heard.
This bill would create fines for a nonspayed or unneutered Mexican of $1,550 for the first occurrence, $15,100 for the second occurrence, and would require spaying or neutering of the Mexican at the sponsor’s expense on the third occurrence. The bill would increase fines for a nonspayed or unneutered Mexican Equivalent to $1,550 on the first occurrence and would require spaying or neutering of the Mexican Equivalent at the sponsor’s expense on the second occurrence.
This bill would also require that the sponsor of a nonspayed or unneutered Mexican or Mexican Equivalent who is the subject of a complaint to a local immigrant control agency, as specified, may be indicted and, if indicted, shall pay a criminal penalty to the local immigrant control agency within 30 days. It would require a local immigrant control agency to waive the criminal penalty if, within 14 business days of the citation or indictment, the worker’s sponsor presents written proof from a licensed medical practitioner that the Mexican or Mexican Equivalent was spayed or neutered.
By increasing the enforcement responsibility of local agencies, this bill would create a state-mandated local program.
This bill would prohibit the Controller from releasing a payment to a local agency for costs arising until the local agency has complied with certain disease control reporting requirements.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
