The names of the sponsors....

Reps. Mark Pocan of Wisconsin, Pramila Jayapal of Washington and Adriano Espaillat of New York introduced the Establishing a Humane Immigration Enforcement Act earlier Thursday, which would abolish ICE within one year of enactment, and also assemble a commission tasked with setting up a new immigration enforcement agency.

•In a vote, Republicans would be forcing vulnerable Democrats to show their hand on a polarizing position that is important to the Democratic base.

Not much of a force. I predict it won't get 30 Democrat votes.

This article is confusing because it also says Ryan won’t let this “come to the floor.”

Actually, I am fine with abolishing ICE as long as say the IRS is beefed up and group of them are devoted to finding ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS WHO are working in the USA and stopping them from getting any money from work, from welfare programs or any other means.

What is drawing the vast majority of illegals is money from jobs or our safety net programs. End that pipeline of money and the illegal alien problem will be solved.

If Dem’s want to abolish ICE or open boarders give them what they want, but put in draconian laws that will prevent illegals from any means of financial support.

WOW! What a brilliant maneuver! House GOP grows some huevos ... who wouda thunk ... thinking internal polling is looking good to them and they figure it’s time to go on the offensive ... which being Republicans I know is hard to believe ... probably a bit of the Trump Effect rubbing off ...

at any rate, this is a total lose-lose issue for the Dems no matter how they vote, and this will definitely drive a wedge (stake?) through the Dem party ...

Holding a vote on it gives it an opportunity to pass.

Brilliant move!

If the R's keep doing stuff like this not even the Dim's MSM comrades can save them in the midterms.
