President Donald Trump should “calm” the escalating Minneapolis battle over migration by allowing states to import a new sub-citizen category of cheap foreign workers for U.S. jobs, says Oklahoma Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt.
“We have to stop politicizing this [fight over immigration], we need real solutions on immigration reform,” Stitt told CNN on Sunday, adding: “And I believe that I’ve got a great solution that we should give the states the authority to do workforce permits.”
He seemed to argue state-run immigration would end partisan fights over illegal migration:
We have to enforce federal laws, but we need to know what is the end game, and I don’t think it’s to deport every single non-U.S. citizen … We need to allow an employer to match up with that [existing illegal migrant] workforce. Maybe charge that employer $5,000 that can pay down the national debt and to incentivize them to hire Americans, but if they need that [migrant] labor, we’re over complicating this. [Also] don’t give them U.S. citizenship.
But if you’re going to have an employer-employee relationship, we should be fixing that instead of politicizing this. And right now, tempers are just going crazy, and we need to calm this down.
But state-run migration programs would further escalate the massive economic damage to ordinary Americans caused by federal migration, and would ensure more state-level fights over migration.
CNN host Dana Bash did not ask Stitt about the civic or pocketbook impact of his plan to create a new subordinate category of U.S. residents, which is modeled on President George W. Bush’s “Any Willing Worker” scheme. That scheme would have allowed CEOs to hire foreign workers at very low wages whenever U.S. workers declined the CEOs’ wage offers.

Why are Republicans always so spineless?
The Uniparty on full unabashed display. At least lefties do what they say they are going to do. This is a very toxic kind of doublespeak.
And you , Gov. Kevin Stitt, are helping the enemies from within. You’re nothing but a RINO.
Here's an idea for "immigration reform": DEPORT EVERY SINGLE ILLEGAL ALIEN and their offspring (whether born here or not), and deport every single legal immigrant that has defrauded the U.S. That's all the "reform" we need.
Another RINO. The immigrants, illegal or legal, are not coming to America to assimilate. They are changing the demographics and not in a positive way, more collectivism, feeding off of the American taxpayers through the welfare fraud as evident by the independent reporters.
See the other thread on how Republicans are helping the left win the Civil War and dissolve America as we know it. Hard not to be pessimistic after reading this.
What a Stitt-head.
Any compromise with Democrats on any immigration issue has to be via constitutional amendment. Any other compromise will simply be abandoned by the Democrats as soon as their end of it is complete.
The GOP is nothing but charging RINOs. The controlled opposition.
Will we be able to sic the dogs on them if they try to escape from the state they were brought into? Catch Eliza before she crosses the Ohio River on ice floes.
The Republicans truly deserve the label, “The Stupid Party.”
Can’t ask that enough. Eventually (hopefully), we will elect someone who makes Trump look like a Teddy bear.
So when a bank robber goes into a bank and starts threatening people and waiving a gun around, do you calm the situation by giving him money and letting him get away?
How about NO, Hell No and we eliminate WELFARE and let them work or starve in the streets
“...we need to know what is the end game, and I don’t think it’s to deport every single non-U.S. citizen...”
Who said it was?
A forever closed border with military on the border works for me.
That will allow any trapped here post invasion and post invitation to leave voluntarily, to be found.
And I’d start in this governor’s Oklahoma today if the Federal authorities aren’t already there.
Oh for God’s sake.
They are arresting violent criminals.
Get these illegals out of my country!
The American public have NEVER wanted illegal immigrants.
And btw such temporary worker programs already exist.
I don't see why any company "needs" immigrants. It's like the South "needed" slavery, I guess.
