Wow...
...one of the reasons the COC has decided to support this bill is because it preempts laws like the one in Arizona from being enacted in the future, as the outline of H.R. 2164 describes on Rep. Lamar Smiths website. It also gives a wink and a nod to those agribusinesses employing illegal aliens right now, allowing those returning workers whose status hasnt been verified to be exempt from the new law. These are just some of the reasons Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has spoken out against it, most eloquently in a New York Post op-ed.
There are two kinds of Republicans - conservative and corporatist/RINO.
The latter has had control of the Party for decades and is one reason I registered Independent. The RINOs generally work in the interest of crony capitalists who expect business to always be subsidized, and they approve of politicians being bribed, and write legislation that benefits global corporations and neocons often at the expense of US citizens.
Illegal immigration has been unenforced and perpetuated since Reagan because of corporatist Rs and Democrats.
Bump.
