The immigration bill pushed by Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and other members of the Gang of 8 is advertised as a comprehensive reform to secure the border and strengthen the immigration laws before allowing legalization.
Nonsense.
An actual read of the massive bill reveals it as radical legislation which will transform the rule of law and the political future of the nation.
Democrats are desperate to pass the legislation because they long to transform 11 million illegal immigrants and their families into Democrats.
The language of the bill doesnt do what the proponents say. Instead, the provisions are a witchs brew of lawlessness, executive discretion, and legalistic trickery crafted by the organized, open-borders left.
Examples of the deception abound.
The bill provides for legalization in six months as soon as the secretary of Department of Homeland Security does another worthless Washington, D.C., review of border security. Almost anyone who has been in the United States illegally since as recently as December 2011 is eligible to legalize. This exposes the public- relations lie of rewarding only those who have put down roots in the United States.
Even the last mass amnesty in 1986 required applicants to have been in the United States almost five years.
Proponents say the bill will make us safer because we will know who is here. But the Boston bombers were already living here legally and were operating in plain sight.
In fact, in the bill aliens are eligible for legalization even if they were found by an immigration court to have filed a phony asylum application (page 66). Current law prevents them from obtaining any immigration benefits after they file a phony application.
The bill does not even require DHS to interview those who apply for legalization (page 105). The bill makes it a rubber-stamp approval.
The bill is supposed to protect aliens who live in the shadows. But aliens who have been through the court system and were ordered deported but refused to leave will benefit from the bill. (page 75). The bill allows some aliens who have been deported to return and get legalization.
The bill even encourages federal-court lawsuits and gives federal judges broad review powers over individual applications if the DHS dares to deny an aliens application. This is a prize for the immigration bar who helped draft the bill. Similar to the 1986 amnesty, this provision will weigh down the courts for decades.
Judging from things I’ve read/heard lately, looks like Rubio’s true colors are coming out.
He probably has a La Raza card.
” Not that it wasnt rather obvious to those of us who listened closely to some of his statements.”
Or knew/checked his history, and his comrades.
Don't Drink the Bong Agua.
Whatever we do with these people, it would be a GRAVE MISTAKE to ever allow them to vote.
Good one, TM!
I think most of them are already voting fraudulently and helped re-elect the Muslim Kenyan bastard in the White House.
Good one.
We knew about Rubio's immigration AKA "Dream Act" before Rubio was elected.
Rush had to know too. Still today, Rush says Rubio is conservative...he assured us GW Bush was conservative too... how did that turn out?
It’s possible, I believe, that many of them voted without knowing they voted.
“La Raza Marco”
Wait! Wasn’t Rubio the “anointed” one the GOP back roomers had selected? With positions like this, he won’t make it past the first primary and GOOD RIDDANCE - we don’t need any more juan mclames!
I began to think that Rubio was a flake when I heard about his abuse of a corporate credit card. He paid for a lot of personal expenses on somebody else’s credit card and did not pay it back until after he got caught. No wonder Romney did not chose Rubio as his running mate. Rubio is not trustworthy and probably has other skeletons in his closet.
