Republican Senator Floats Back-Door Amnesty Proposal

Bill would create 500,000 new visas, include path to citizenship, and be open to current aliens.

A bill introduced this month by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) would increase foreign guest workers by up to 500,000 a year and offer a back-door amnesty for illegal immigrants.

The legislation, the State Sponsored Visa Pilot Program Act of 2017, has attracted support from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the libertarian-oriented Cato Institute.

The bill would represent a massive increase in the number of non-immigrant visas issued each year by the United States. Unlike the myriad of existing visa programs, Johnson’s proposed program would be a state-based system.

Each state and the District of Columbia would be able to sponsor 5,000 visas each year. Another 245,000 visas would be distributed to the states based on their populations. Visas not used by one state could be claimed by others.

With IDIOTS like this in the GOP I know without a doubt why the GOP is referred to as the stupid party. ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS GET ALONG WITH THOSE ACROSS THE AISLE AND THE OLD STREAM DB MEDIA. Like Paul Rino from the same state IMHO he this bill will wend it's way through the House under the tutaledge of P. RINO.

He ran as a Tea Party candidate.

I wish the GOP would fight as hard for us as they do foreigners.

[dirtboy]

Yep, we can’t ever allow the laws of supply and demand to benefit workers, can we?

[rbg81]

These guys are tone deaf and just don’t give up.

This jerk and Paul Ryan. What the f%$^ is in the water in Wisconsin?

Just like with every RINO Amnesty bill like McCain-Kennedy we have to call our Congress/Senate every day saying "No to Amnesty Bill whatever."

McCain-Kennedy was barely stopped and only because of a huge uproar.

We’re like passengers on a runaway train.

NO AMNESTY! Do Republicans (and Trump, worth reminding him) realize this is why they won and were elected? Trump is already on thin ice in my opinion because he hasn’t rescinded Obama’s executive orders and actions giving amnesty to illegal aliens and, worse, still continues to do so. Pathetic that Ryan and Trump included them in the failed Obamacare repeal/replace, and now, they give new money to sanctuary city San Francisco without ending their sanctuary activities. We see too many words and no actions. Not good actions anyway. This latest proposal needs to die now, completely. NO AMNESTY MEANS NO AMNESTY.

The Cheap Labor Express will not give up on their 30 year bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of immigration laws and borders.

Alexander, Corker, Flake, Graham, Hatch, Heller, Hoeven, Murkowsky, McCain, Rubio, Burr, Tillis, Portman, McConnell, Thune, Cornyn, Cochran, Isackson, Blunt, Johnson, Gardner, Toomey, Capito, Fischer, Collins, Wicker are all Cheap Labor Express Republicans.

They must be removed from office before they give away our country.

Nope...sorry...no sale.

GET 'EM OUT! GET 'EM ALL OUT! GET 'EM OUT NOW!

Here’s a good analogy. Remember bumper cars? You turn the wheel one way and the car goes the opposite way! Politics is like that, we turned the wheel to the right in November and the GOP goes left!

I like Ron Johnson, but this is nuts.

How does increasing the number of visas help America?

I would rather see new funding for technical schools to train reformed “snowflakes” for USEFUL jobs.

Well that’s shocking.

Johnson is another corporate amnesty whore.

[factoryrat]

Bought and paid for CofC uniparty hack.

Just the mention of this RINO POS being affiliated with the US CofC should have tipped you off of where his allegiances lie, and it isn’t with the American people.

Ok he showed his true colors, so do you like him now or not?
