Dominican teenage hookers strongly approve.
The “Republican” side of this bipartisan committee is represented by McCain, Graham, and Flake - all long time supporters of amnesty.
Remember, it was the McCain-Kennedy Amnesty Act of 2007 (with support from see-you-at-the-signing Bush and Rove)
that turned people against the Republican Establishment and caused millions of 2004 Bush voters to stay home in 2008.
I’m afraid that our RINO Senate is now truly lost lost now. They are going to appease and cop out. I will not vote for either of my Georgia Senators again - EVER, whom I’m sure will go along with this. These country club SOBs can rot where they belong.
There’s already a pathway to citizenship.
It begins at an American consulate in their native country.
Simple, legal.
And why isn’t deporting citizens of Mexico back to their own goddamn countries part of it?
National suicide. This will only accelerate the leftist takeover. This could still be stopped for the good of our country IF any leader cared enough.
Illegal immigration is an insane non policy for our country.
Worth a mention that the architect of this, Bob Menendez, is a drunken perverted pedophile as well as a race baiter.
Sure, let filthy degenerate scum make our policies, that’s a good plan.
I wish someone would just talk to some of these illegals. They DON’T WANT to be citizens. They just want to come in here, make a little money while they collect some government freebies, and then go home and live well. It only takes about 5 or 6 years to do that for a Mexican.
Want to solve the problem? Cut out the aid programs, and clamp down on businesses who hire them, and they’ll be back in their home countries by the end of the month.
Probably not, since he is a consservative, taxpaying productive member of society like the rest of us schmucks who frequent this forum.
Senate Immigration Proposal To Include Pathway To xxxxxxx Democrat Voter Registration.
Much more accurate title.
The cons:
This is anti-rule of law, it shifts the nation toward one-party rule at the federal level, it encourages increased illegal entry, it reduces public confidence in government and law, it puts downward pressure on wages, it increases crime because the illegal underground railroad is a good place for criminals to hide and travel and it creates business opportunities for those who operate in document falsification and border violation, it burdens health care and education systems, it strengthens the underground economy and lowers tax revenues, it brings health and social problems from other nations to the US, it populates the US with people who have not been educated in American culture, history, or citizenship, it boosts the voter rolls for anti-American politicians.
Pros:
Hmmmmm......McCain gets some TV time.
I recently spoke with a Repub appointee who believed that the illegals were “natural Republicans”—that kind of flawed belief will be fatal to the Repub party. If there was no downside risk, then such beliefs would be merely laughable, but the downside risk here is extreme and the upside potential for the Repub party appears non-existent.
Just wondering — can they all have dual-citizenship?
“...well suicide is painless
it brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please...”
In 4 more years we will need another of these amnesty programs for all of those who continue to sneak in.
No program should start until armed guards with orders to shoot to kill are placed on the border to stop more illegals from coming in.
If we are to do this every 3 or 4 years, why not just take down the border gates and make Mexico a state?
During the war it was rumored that John McCain got special treatment in the prison camp because his father was an Admiral, I have no trouble believing that as I see how he double crosses his political party
"4. _Resolved_, That alien friends are under the jurisdiction and protection of the laws of the State wherein they are: that no power over them has been delegated to the United States, nor prohibited to the individual States, distinct from their power over citizens. And it being true as a general principle, and one of the amendments to the Constitution having also declared, that "the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people," the act of the Congress of the United States, passed on the -- day of July, 1798, intituled "An Act concerning aliens," which assumes powers over alien friends, not delegated by the Constitution, is not law, but is altogether void, and of no force." (emphases added) --Thomas Jefferson, Draft of the Kentucky Resolutions - October 1798.
So based on Thomas Jefferson's expert understanding of the Constitution, immigration is a unique, 10th Amendment protected state power issue.
Also note that Jefferson's stance on state power to regulate immigration probably helped him to be elected as the 3rd president.

It’s not much of a win unless it can pass in the House too. Normally, I’d say that was in doubt, but the GOPe has a suicidal urge to coddle illegals, so who knows?
