Conservative commentator Jack Posobiec outlined a strategy for addressing illegal immigration that centers on employer accountability and economic pressure rather than expanded enforcement raids, arguing that financial restrictions would lead to large-scale self-deportation.
In a statement addressing immigration policy, Posobiec said enforcement efforts should begin with mandatory employment verification and criminal penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants.
“Get the E verify going, go after the employers. Arrest the CEOs. I’ve said it again and again. Start arresting CEOs. Start arresting business owners,” Posobiec said.
Posobiec argued that targeting businesses and executives who employ illegal aliens would have a broader impact than focusing solely on individual enforcement actions.
He said employer enforcement would remove the primary incentive that allows illegal immigration to continue.
Beyond workplace enforcement, Posobiec called for the use of financial and economic tools to restrict access to banking and payment platforms for illegal immigrants.
He said access to financial services enables individuals to remain in the country unlawfully.

“And by the way, start using economic tools and economic leverage,” Posobiec said.
“Debank, every illegal alien in America, if they can’t have access to banking, to Venmo, to Cash App, to PayPal. Guess what? They can’t stay anymore.”
Posobiec said denying access to banking and digital payment systems would make it difficult for illegal immigrants to pay rent, receive wages, or conduct everyday transactions, which he argued would naturally result in departures without the need for large-scale enforcement operations.
“So if you’re renting, if you’re a landlord, if you’re hiring, all the rest of it, get them out,” he said.
According to Posobiec, such economic measures would significantly reduce the need for targeted immigration raids by federal authorities.
“And if you do that, guess what? You won’t need. Then you won’t have the need for so many of these targeted raids, because the masses will self deport on their own,” he said.
He further argued that economic pressure would likely result in higher overall deportation numbers than traditional enforcement actions alone.
“And you know what? I think you would actually get more deportations if you start using economic measures and economic leverage than than just in the targeted operations,” Posobiec said.
Posobiec compared his proposed strategy to a tariff system, arguing that restricting remittances sent abroad by illegal immigrants would keep money inside the United States rather than flowing overseas.
“Think of it. Think of it like putting a tariff on the illegals,” he said.
“Because that’s what going after remittances, going after all the rest of it does because it it functions the same as a tariff.”
He said limiting remittances would reduce financial incentives tied to illegal immigration while strengthening the domestic economy.
“It keeps the money within the pool of the country itself, within the confines of our borders,” Posobiec said.
Posobiec contrasted that approach with allowing money earned in the United States to be transferred abroad.
“Not sending it to Mogadishu, Dar es Salaam and Mumbai and all these other places,” he said.
“No, you keep the money here.”
