I see this as a coordinated two pronged attack.
The objective of the “immigration reform” prong is to regularize illegal aliens. In order to obtain this objective a token move to control the borders & ports may be offered. This token is a sop to buy votes. It will be weak, partial, temporary, virtual, and in the future. Watch for requirements to be pushed down to a commission or other administrative body rather than specified in law.
The second prong is the attack on citizenship verification. The Supreme Court just struck Arizona’s voting registration citizenship verification requirements.
States are already giving Driver Licenses to illegal aliens. This will only become more widespread and “acceptable” as a result of amnesty.
These two prongs work together to enable foreigners to register to vote and on election day produce a state issued photo-id (Driver License) and cast votes.
A vote can not be undone.
When foreigners control your government you are conquered.
Rather than control who enters the country everyone will be admitted and a Rube Goldberg process of tracking will be instituted.
Rather than control who registers to vote everyone will be registered and admitted to the process, the onus on the State to determine who is illegally registered while the State is barred from obtaining information from the applicant.
Common sense: Control the point of entry - to the country and the voting process - rather than backstop it after the fact.
