Rand Paul is right about what we have now. We have de facto amnesty. We also have open borders and American citizen funding of foreign illegals.
However, this plan does NOT first control the border. It says something about spending 4 billion or so on border control over a 10 year period. That’s contempt for those who want controlled access to this country.
Therefore, what does the “new” law do? Essentially, it maintains the status quo with the border, but now there’s a path to a green card for those who violate the borders.
It’s hard to imagine anything being worse than what we have now, but this is worse than the status quo. It takes serious work to come up with something worse than the status quo, but they’ve achieved it.
This “uncontrolled border green card” plan must be rejected.
The bill is terrible and Rand is trying to make it better at least as far as border security is concerned before handing out any visas’.
He wants congress to vote on it. That means if they dont enforce existing laws then we can stop it through the congress.
The trade off is that we give illegals a visa to stay and work legally.
I dont even like the idea of fining them. Secure the border then have your visa and get on with it. If they want citizenship make them learn about the constitution.
I’m not afraid that we can’t win their vote when they’re citizens.
