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.

GREAT STATEMENT!!!!!!!! Kudos to you!!!!
Not to worry. He’ll dust off the Ol’ Time Religion of true conservatism again when he runs the next time. Hopefully, the conservatives of WI will wise up and find a genuine conservative to primary this Benedict Arnold.
I still like him. He was a successful businessman and he wants to cut government spending a lot.
Maybe he was seduced by the “pitch” that THIS visa program would be run by the states. Bad decision, IMO.
However, I don’t expect him (or you) to agree with me 100% of the time.
Is he up in 18? There is no coming back from this. He needs to be primaried.
I read his ardent defense of it, along the lines of whining “Why can’t businesses hire who they want to?”
Any other real conservative will get 2 votes from this WI household.
PRIMARY this asshole!
Says a lot about you. You may want to reconsider but you are probably a globalist Cheap Labor Express shill.

From another article:
Obama admin knew gang members were part of illegal immigrant surge: Whistleblower
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3554911/posts
he Obama administration knowingly let in at least 16 admitted MS-13 gang members who arrived at the U.S. as illegal immigrant teenagers in 2014, a top senator said Wednesday, citing internal documents that showed the teens were shipped to juvenile homes throughout the country.
Sen. Ron Johnson, chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, said a whistleblower turned over Customs and Border Protection documents from 2014 detailing the 16 persons who were caught crossing the border.
“CBP apprehended them, knew they were MS-13 gang members, and they processed and disbursed them into our communities,” Mr. Johnson, Wisconsin Republican, said.
Isn’t that sweet.
He wants us to be exactly like Great Britain.
No. Do not reward criminal behavior. Deport all illegals, no exceptions. Before they leave, take their fingerprints and DNA, and permanently bar them from any path to legal entry or citizenship. Fine them everything they have to cover the costs of enforcement and deportation. Fine their employers for failing to check citizenship and status. No exceptions.
Then we can reform the legal immigration system to bring in the number of legal immigrants that will benefit Americans, specifying qualifications and origin.
But Dad he said he loved me.
We are exactly headed to Great Britain’s fate! That is our future. We need to refresh the liberty tree. If it takes civil war, so be it.
I have heard this somewhere before maybe someone running for President said it?
I’m guessing that was not Jeb.
Sharp you are.
Now that he’s President he says those illegal aliens in the illegal DACA program can rest easy.
ron jophnson proves that the “best and brightest” don’t enter politics. What an idiot.
