Lindsey Graham Teaming With Dick Durbin on Legislation That Could Grant Citizenship to DREAMers
MenRec ^ | 02/01/21 | Rusty

Senators Dick Durbin and Lindsey Graham have reportedly joined forces and will introduce an immigration bill next week that could provide permanent residency and eventual citizenship to so-called DREAMers.

DREAMers are people who were brought to the United States unlawfully as children.

The bill will serve as a starting point for further negotiations according to comments made by Durbin (D-IL).

“If we can reach an agreement soon, very soon, we will have the base bill reintroduced and then that will be our starting point to build support as well as consider any additions, too,” he told reporters.

Graham (R-SC) told The Hill that the new legislation will mirror previous efforts the two worked on together. He added it would have to address border security.

That said, the Hill notes that the previous legislation “would provide permanent residency, and eventual citizenship, to immigrants brought into the country as children who meet education or work requirements.”

Lindsey can’t keep up his act very long before reverting back to his old ways.

The election is over, so now he can go back to his RINO ways as usual.

Face it. Lindsay Graham is a closeted homosexual who has deceived people all his life. Only a certified fool would trust this man on any matter of importance.

This creep is such a lowlife poster child for what is swamp politics. How I yearn for the old stockades in early America and a big bag of rotten veggies to throw at this skunk.

I have no problem with Congress exercising their enumerated power to set immigration / naturalization policy. But witht he dreamers, they have had several years to apply for citizenship or alien resident status. Why havent they?

Also, there should be prohibitions for those convicted of felony crimes. And there should be a time limit. If a DREAMer has not completed their citizenship / green card by this time, the law should state that they are now illegal aliens and subject to deportation, just like any other

Trump offered this same deal in exchange for funding The Wall, but the Democrats turned it down.

Linda is a human mayfly, flimsy and insubstantial. Certainly not anyone to lean or depend on, unless you’re counting on faithlessness. He’s a bum. Why he keeps getting reelected is a monument to the stupidity and apathy of his constituents.

I guess the Republicans who listened to Lin Wood and ‘boycotted’ the Georgia runoff elections to ‘teach the GOP a lesson’ (despite Trump going out there twice and saying to do just the opposite) didn’t think about the implications of handing more Amnesty votes to the Democrats...

Oh well, I’m sure they’re happy with their choice now. LOL!

The problem with amnesty for illegal aliens is that it removes the illegal status and suddenly they're not the cheap labor that the Uniparty has brought in for decades.

The other problem is that many of these illegal aliens don't want to be legalized. Among other things, it makes it harder to cross borders and move money around.

Hey Rusty, what is the source for this? How do we know you’re not just making this up?
