House Republicans would be smart to ignore any legislation that has to do with a pathway to citizenship, regardless of how strong the border security language is. As sure as I’m sitting here, the pathway to citizenship will happen long before the border is actually secured.
There is no way - none - that true border security will ever happen.
Democrats want the illegals here as a source of votes.
Many Republicans want the illegals here as a source of cheap labor.
Only a small number of Republicans actually want to secure the border. Given that’s the case, this idea that we’ll get border security before any “pathway to citizenship” is theater.
Don’t fall for it.
I guess. But how many apple pickers, maids and gardeners do we need?
