Time is now for immigration reform
The Hill ^ | 12/19/13 | Jeb Bush Jr.

Posted on 12/20/2013 3:18:48 PM PST by jimbo123

As our members of Congress head home to enjoy the holiday recess and start of the New Year, I look back at all the progress we’ve made on immigration in 2013 — building a nationwide coalition of leaders who carry a bible, wear a badge or own a business — and I look forward to what 2014 holds in store for reform.

Wide acknowledgement from Republican House leadership — and support among Republican constituents — shows that immigration reform is definitely not a “dead” issue, but one with great opportunity in 2014.

Every member of the House leadership team has expressed commitment to move reform forward in 2014, and each week the number of rank and file Republicans in favor of reform grows.

In 2013 we made great strides toward a successful 2014 for immigration. Considering that just over a year ago this issue was on the sidelines, the fact that the home stretch is in sight is no small accomplishment.

2014 stands to be that blockbuster year that finally takes reform across the finish line.

Just like it was time for Obamacare.

This isn’t “reform” anymore than it was the “Affordable Care” Act.

Why? Is America running out of poverty and freeloaders? You turds are going to give them government freebies paid for by the taxpayers and they are going to go home, take siestas and what for their U.S. Government check to show up. People like Jeb Bush are total morons.

A great reform would be to enforce the law, and to end benefits for people who break the law.

Illegal aliens and their children should be shipped back to their home country. I am all for reuniting families, in their home country.

Illegal aliens should be forever banned from legal US immigration.

Yes, it is time for reform.

The policies of open borders and kissing the butts of illegals isn’t working.

Time to stop ignoring the law.

Time to start enforcing the law.

Time to stop rewarding criminal trespassing illegals with free stuff.

Time to impeach politicians who ignore the law, their oaths of office and the US Constitution.

Time to prosecute politicians who knowingly break the law.

That’s the kind of reform we need !

The Bush clan: Cementing their position in the American left. Note that W. Bush has NO CRITICISM about the extra-constitutional actions of Barack Obama.

call congress and tell them no immigration related bill from the House as it will be merged with the Senate Amnesty bill.

if these democrats and Jeb Bush want illegals to come here so much then these democrats should let illegal live in their own homes. adopt a Mexican man, somali man etc. go ahead and leave us alone. go ahead pelosi adopt some Mexicans
