The dirty little secret is that it is getting harder and harder for illegals to get jobs. That's why they want amnesty right now. They are starting to panic. The RINO’s figure they can get the illegal mexican to vote for the GOP once they get them amnesty and a job and off welfare. The truth is that the illegal mexican will always vote for the democRAT over the republican. It's a fools errand for the GOP to pass amnesty.

"...while our broken immigration system continues to destroy tens of thousands of families..."

I have to agree. Many US citizen families are being destroyed by the unending flood of illegals from Mexico. Jobs go to the illegals instead of citizens, tax money is squandered on welfare payments to them, they get free healthcare and preferential treatment in education. How many citizen families have been destroyed by murders done by illegals? Drunk driving deaths? Robberies? Identity theft? Drugs?

“while our broken immigration system continues to destroy tens of thousands of families,”


Translation - “We need unlimited immigration to to accomplish our mission of total family destruction in the U.S.”

“I think it’s unconscionable that the Congress of the United States is going to go away for Thanksgiving with their families, we’re going to go away for Christmas with our families, while our broken immigration system continues to destroy tens of thousands of families,” he said on Fusion

.....and I think it unconscionable that law breakers who entered this country illegally, and currently feast at the public trough at the expense of American taxpayers, are allowed to remain here. Say no to amnesty before they bankrupt us completely!

Maybe folks have learned on Obamacare that pushing un-thought out bills through Congress is a bad idea at any time of the year Rep. Gutierrez....promises made and broken in Obamaland are causing distrust to run high.

Take away the jobs and welfare and they will self deport in a matter of days. Hell, give them free bus rides from far away states back to Mexico.

Simply increase the penalties for hiring illegal aliens and businesses will stop that practice. Stop all the welfare programs from allowing illegals. Just like taking the bird feeder out of the yard will stop the birds from coming!

We keep hearing you can’t round up 11 million illegals and deport them.

But they sure can find all 11 million (more like 50 million) and give them citizenship.

The other dirty secret is that we basically take in most of Mexico’s ghetto population now. How awesome is that for Mexico?

the hill.com reported

EXCERPT Immigration reform is widely seen as dead in this Congress, and the finger-pointing has already started.

Both parties are responsible for the effort’s demise.

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), for example, refused pleas from GOP negotiators for a commitment to move the House bill. Republicans could never give Democrats a clear sense of how many GOP lawmakers might support the proposal if it ever reached the floor.

Inside the House Group of Eight, momentum toward a deal slowed as negotiations became bogged down in a dispute over healthcare. By the end of May, the group had lost its self-described conservative hardliner, Rep. Raúl Labrador (R-Idaho), who quit despite pleas from top Republicans, including Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.), that he stay at the table.

The remaining seven met through the summer, but their moment had passed.

“I think Raúl figured that no matter what happened, we weren’t going to make a deal,” said Gutiérrez, one of four House Democrats in the group. “When he left, everybody said we were still alive, but I didn’t think we were.”

The group’s collapse after more than four years of talks left the House without a bipartisan immigration proposal to rival the Senate bill that passed in June, and a year after Obama’s re-election, the prospects for his top second-term domestic priority are bleak.

Abandoning the legislation in September, Texas Reps. Sam Johnson and John Carter cited a growing lack of trust in the Obama administration’s commitment to implementing the law.

RE :”Abandoning the legislation in September, Texas Reps. Sam Johnson and John Carter cited a growing lack of trust in the Obama administration’s commitment to implementing the law.”

My list:

The Senate bill was another Obamacare like monstrosity, no GOP in House wanted to vote for that as is, only house Dems did.

Obama arrogantly flaunts his ability to pick and choose what laws Justice will enforce and when, so what good is a enforcement deal in a law?

Bad vibes between GOP and Obama after shutdown fight (The one good thing from it). So why give Obama any victory after he called you a terrorist child hostage taker?

Obamacare disaster : why change the subject from that continuing drama?

And time was short to begin with, and Bohner promised to NOT put a bill up wo GOP majority support and he is not known to lie.(I repeatedly said here that he would keep this one)

Lead by example, Congressman. Stay in DeeCee while everybody else goes home to their districts. I’m sure the people in your district won’t mind.

“We keep hearing you can’t round up 11 million illegals and deport them. I agree it would be very costly.”

Build a durn Israeli-style wall. Once you catch an illegal, deport them. Might take years, but it doesn’t have to be that costly. When you catch ‘em, deport ‘em!
