Rand Paul to Illegals: We Will Find Place for You; Envisions 12 Million New Taxpayers
CNS ^ | 6/12/13 | Terence P. Jeffrey

Posted on 06/12/2013 8:07:49 AM PDT by jimbo123

In his prepared text for a speech he is delivering today at the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference and Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles, Sen. Rand Paul (R.-Ky.) said to illegal aliens who want to live and work in the United States: “[W]e will find a place for you.”

Paul also said he envisions today’s illegal aliens becoming additional “taxpayers.”

“Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers,” said Paul.

” Levin claiming that Rubio is a good guy being deceived by Dems lies is as credible as Obama claiming he FIRST learned about all those scandals watching the news,”

No difference. Levin is an idiot.

RE :”It’s a learning experience.”

A few miles from my house is a apartment complex where I occasionally dump my trash in the dumpster (so it doesnt sit around) and there is this one parking space there where a gang of them hang out and drink beer and of course speak their language.

Reminds me of a neighborhood I knew in Queens NYC 20+ years ago back when my county (in MD) was still solid Republican. A whole gang rented two houses with what looking like 10 families and they would hang out and drink, and use the sidewalk as their facilities. Looks like they followed me here.

“Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers,”...

That's hard to do considering there's more than twice that amount here illegally in the US now....but keep telling that lie, since 12 million is so manageable to digest.

Is Rand being blackmailed with NSA dirt? Its a legitimate question. How about the rest of Congress. Is the Supreme Court being spied on and blackmailed. Is the Joint Chiefs of Staff?

Since 2001, the liars always said it was 11 million....now all of a sudden, they raise it to 12. REAL numbers are 20-25 million, or even more.

Shows you the utter contempt Rand (and LaRaza Rubio) have for our intelligence.

If it is what it sounds like, agreed. I don't like pandering and it's one of the things I've liked about Rand up until now...

The kids been pretty solid until recently, so this is kind of a "WTF is he thinking" moment for me...

The illiegals not working is a whole other ballgame. Most who work are on a payroll system. For every nanny or day labor paid under the table, there’s 50 thousand of them working for large companies and paying witholding (no, e verify does not always work)

LINK: Significantly for Indian Americans, the measure cuts out two categories of family-based visas, limiting sponsorship by U.S. residents to only their spouses and unmarried children under the age of 31. Parents, siblings and other relatives would no longer be eligible for a family-based visa. The employment-based visa program would be expanded allowing for a maximum cap of 250,000 visas a year. The cap for the H-1B visa – which allows highly-skilled foreigners to work in the U.S. for a limited period of time – would also be increased to 125,000 visas annually.

I expect that part to be amended out eventually, to be more "inclusive." But even if it stayed in, add millions more "unmarried children under the age of 31." And their families eventually.

And don't forget the "flexibility" Janet Napolitano claims to posses. Hell, even a GOP administration is not to be trusted with immigration policy, as we saw GWB's DHS stop arresting illegal aliens just before the 2008 elections, so Obama's illegal aunt would be safe.

Most of them (12 - 20M+) are already on welfare. This will just insure they get to keep it, along with the free healthcare, education, housing assistance, etc.

Rand and the Pubbies are wrong on this. This will NOT gain R votes, just add to the Dim votes...and provide a permanent Dim lock on most, if not all, elections.

This is just the tip of the iceberg, as far as* evening the playing field* and *0's redistribution*, IMO.

I agree that Rand is wrong, and many of the establishment are wrong, and that it will NOT gain votes. However, I doubt most are on welfare and I would never support any reform bill that didn’t address them being on welfare in the first place.

When was the last time you heard of anyone doing anything about welfare fraud?

Didn’t say it would happen - was talking about what kind of things I would need to see before it’s a bill I would support. Securing the border as priority one is the main thing, and removing illegals from the benefit rolls is number two. Do both of those, and this ain’t an issue of much substance in three years or less.
