It's a rhetorical gambit, with no hope of passage. I do have hopes that people will hear, read, and know that Mexico's immigration laws are some of the most un-compassionate in the world.

We pass the very laws Mexico has at this time. Ten minutes later Mexico changes it's laws and demands we do the same. At which point we immediately go down and buy the damn place.

LOL. Okay, so perhaps I could be convinced to support the legislation after all...

Howdy, Moosekiteers!
The Administration's dogs have been barking hard that the Senate's amnesty bill is "a done deal". Meanwhile their tails are between their legs because they know another strong public push on their Representatives would prove otherwise - and they know it.
That push for a final bill that resembles HR 4437 would not only reestablish some sovereignty and improve security, it would affect Mexico's upcoming political exercise in ways that may actually encourage reforms. Mexico, it's time for an "intervention" courtesy of drastically reduced Yankee dollars and angry young men with no where else to go.

Thanks for the ping.
Agreed.
If Republicans want to turn around the debate on this to aid not divide their caucus while doing the RIGHT thing on the topic, using Reid's bill is the way to do it.

I’d love to see this at the Federal level...adopting Mexico’s immigration/alien laws. But there is even a simpler approach that could fix 95% of the problem in 6 months at practically no cost to the tax payers:
1. Mandate all commerce MUST be conducted in English
2. Do not grant US citizenship to those born in the US of anyone here: (a) illegally, (b) on student visa, (c) on tourist visa.
3. Impose a $100K fine on employers of each instance of having an illegal in employ (this includes private individuals hiring nannies, landscapers, etc.)
4. Impose a $100K fine for each instance on landlords renting to illegal aliens.
5. Withdrawn $100K in federal funds to any school district for each instance of an enrolled illegal.
If they can’t get a job or find a place to live they will stop coming. Those illegals already here will return to their country of origin of their own accord and expense.
