That is not accurate. According to Sessions, whom I believe, the only parts of the bill tied to “enforcement” triggers are the legal immigration provisions. The sections legalizing illegals and incorporating them into the welfare state will go into effect immediately and are NOT tied to the fence, or the additional BP agents or anything else that might actually slow down the flow of illegals. And there is no guarantee and little actual chance that the enforement measures in the bill will ever actually be funded.

Rohrbacher on CSPAN said the triggers don’t matter — they’re the lipstick on the pig. It’s up to the Director of Homeland Security to decide whether the triggers have been sufficiently achieved, which is just one of many loopholes that make the bill far worse than many people suspect. After hearing the Congressman speak tonight, it appears this bill is intentionally crafted to encourage wave after wave of illegal immigrants from all parts of the world. Apparently, the bill is written to deceive the American people, which is why Reid tried to push it through so quickly. I imagine the more Sessions, Rohrbacher and others who are on the side of decency explain the bill’s loopholes and dire implications for the middle class, the more Americans will turn their ire on our President, the bill’s authors and our Director of Homeland Security. They might even conclude they’re all traitors. I hope CSPAN will rerun Rohrbacher’s presentation. It was remarkably chilling.
