U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), :”
Yet, without consulting the law officers who have the duty to enforce the law, another group of senators, meeting in secret—just like the last time comprehensive reform failed—have set forth an outline with no legislative language. We have seen too often before that the promises made by bill sponsors do not match up to the reality when the language is produced. No secret accord with profound consequences for this nation’s future can be rushed through. That means a full committee process and debate and amendments on the floor of the Senate.
Several points need to be understood. Amnesty will not help balance our budget. In fact, a large-scale amnesty is likely to add trillions of dollars to the debt over time, accelerate Medicare’s and Social Security’s slide into insolvency, and put enormous strain on our public assistance programs. We know already that the administration refuses to enforce existing law restricting immigrant welfare use, and in fact promotes expanded welfare use to immigrants—including food stamps, public housing, and Medicaid. I joined with four Ranking Members to obtain answers from the Department of Homeland Security about this evisceration of law, and the Administration has suspiciously defied three consecutive oversight requests” Sessions is on the money here.
Worse yet is ‘path to voting’ that the McCain, Schumer, Rubio amnesty team wants. McCain says we ‘owe’ illegals ‘the same benefits we enjoy as Americans’ for their hard work here.
A caller on CSPAN this morning accused the US (corporations) of ‘bringing them here’ in making the exact same argument, not kidding.
Yes, apparently illegals were brought here in chains just like Kunta Kinte (Roots) was.
