RE:”
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce said once again that conservatives were the “problem” when it came to passing immigration reform legislation with amnesty provisions.
The left has never been the problem on this, Randel Johnson, the chambers senior vice president, said on Friday during an immigration summit in Washington. The right is the problem.
As Breitbart News reported, that is why the Chamber is reportedly going to spend $50 million against the Tea Party, largely because the Tea Party opposes amnesty and comprehensive immigration reform. According to Bloomberg News, the Chamber of Commerce wants to “rewrite” the immigration laws because current laws limit “access to workers.” Are these the ‘job creators’ we were lectured about endlessly in 2012?

These are some of the Traitors pulling the strings of the GOP-E leadership.
The GOP apparently no longer represents the citizens they were sent to Washington to represent.
They now represent Corporations and whoever gives them the most money.

because the Tea Party opposes amnesty and comprehensive immigration reform. False dichotomy. It is entirely possible to have comprehensive immigration reform AND not have amnesty. Without passing a single law. Just enforce the ones on the books now.
It is like all the rest of the lies:
Conservatives oppose immigration (nope, only illegal border crossers)
Conservatives want families to be broken up (nope, better the whole family go together back to the home country).

?Breitbart?
I imagine, without reading, they are expressing the opposition position.
It’s the republican battle, as the GOP is liberal and sides, in ALL arguments, with the dems, the libs.

Maybe we need to stop worrying so much about the taxes and regulations the COC crowd gets socked with....

No, the problem is people who break the laws of the United States of America and then kick us in the teeth every chance they get. Give me this, give me that—they demand it.
The Chamber of Commerce isn’t any better—give me, give me. Guess what...there isn’t much more left to give or to take from this country. Business won’t matter two freakin’ cents if the tax paying citizens have are taxed to death to cover the illegals granted citizenship and the jobs that will go to the new citizens.
I forget who on FR said it but they posted about picking over the carcass of this country and that was darn accurate. Get our house in order here, respect the law abiding, tax paying CITIZENS here, then they can start to think about immigration.
We can’t afford to be bleeding hearts...we can’t AFFORD IT.

I notice they have dropped the “comprehensive immigration reform” lie and are now flat out calling it amnesty. Brazen little anti-American bung holes.

It’s time for the turds down at the Chamber of Commerce to come clean with the American people and tell us why amnesty is so important to them. It wouldn’t have anything to do with money, WOULD IT?

I just emailed that Sen. Sessions article plus a personal note to my representatives.
I hope the Chamber and its benefactors Gates, Soros, all incur the voters rage.
Its about squeezing the last bit of profit and depressing wages forever.
