USA Today: Amnesty Debate Is About 3.6 Million ‘Dreamers,’ not Just 800,000 DACA Illegals

USA Today has frankly admitted what establishment media outlets are eager to hide: That the media-touted amnesty for up to 800,000 ‘DACA’ illegals is actually a ‘dreamer’ amnesty for 3.6 million illegals. The newspaper wrote January 18:

The political debate over the fate of “DREAMers” — undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children — has overlooked just how many there are in the country today: about 3.6 million.

That number of people whose lives risk being uprooted is not widely known, in large part because so much public attention has been focused recently on 800,000 mostly young DREAMers accepted into the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program …

While many politicians use DREAMer and DACA interchangeably, the terms are “not a distinction without a difference,” said House Minority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md.

3.6 millions illegals getting amnesty is unacceptable.

1 illegal alien getting amnesty is unacceptable. They must ALL be deported.

End welfare, education, and other benefits to illegal aliens.

Verify that employees, and voters, are legally eligible to work or to vote.

DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS on contact with any law enforcement entity. NO Exceptions.

Confusion over DACA/Dreamer is intentional. “Dreamers” is a moving definition but basically applies to all “children” brought in. DACA has specific parameters.

I believe the majority of Americans are fully supportive of your position.

>>ANY ILLEGAL invader, of any age, of any sex, from any other country in the world, needs to be sent back, either standing in their boots, or in a box, period.<<

Perfectly stated, and I believe it is exactly the position that the vast majority of Americans fully support.

I believe the majority of congressthings are NOT in support of my position, and I'm not convinced one way or the other about the President. Contact him at whitehouse dot gov. Encourage him to stay strong on this issue.
