When you reward something, you get more of it. More will come to join their families. They will create whatever phony documents are needed. Processing millions of people and issuing them work permits is a massive undertaking. It will take years.
The GOPe wants an amnesty just like they supported the DACA amnesty. If the Reps had made a stand during the June 2012 DACA Dreamer amnesty, it would have made it much more difficult to do this one.
Amnesty is forever. There is no way to reverse it. We are screwed as a nation.
I attended our monthly Republican club meeting last night. One of the lawyers I know really well who is a brilliant guy claims that we do have enough law on our side to get all this killed.Or at least parts of it. Kill parts and you may gut the whole thing. It remains to be seen.I'm pretty sure that we will be hearing about a lot of legalese over the next 6 weeks before we take over the Senate.
We probably can't do too much except get ready between now and when the new Congress comes in.
