Senator McSally is working with Senators Lindsay Graham and Ron Johnson on emergency legislation, to address the current border crisis. I get the feeling that they will probably have something next month.
"McSally called for an amendment to the settlement from the court case Reno v. Flores to allow for the government to detain families entering the country illegally for more than 20 days as their asylum proceedings occur."
"She also said that the standards for the credible fear interview needed to be increased and that the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act should be revised to allow for the immediate deportation of unaccompanied migrant children from any country, not just Canada and Mexico."
Loophole. Is that what we call it where everybody who steps onto US soil rates a phone, a medical exam, money, and papers entitling them to stay here until the court date they will skip 2 years from now?
Loophole indeed.
“McSally called for an amendment to the settlement from the court case Reno v. Flores to allow for the government to detain families entering the country illegally for more than 20 days as their asylum proceedings occur.””
McCain 2.0. Her “solution” is that we get to keep them in a detention center for a year or two till their case comes up. Sounds cheap to house, feed, and ride herd on a million people for a year or two.
The dumb ass.
Heaven help us.
worthless rino needs to be primaried. Hopefully Kelli Ward as new AZ GOP chair will do something about it
All the legislation must say is no more asylum claims for ten years....make that 20.
A good system of border barriers may not STOP the surge on potential border-jumpers, but it certainly be used to steer them to other places which may be more easily monitored.
As things now stand, it is impossible to keep eyeballs and personnel close at hand at every potential crossing place.
This is not the Florida Strait, after all.
Who da thunk it? This senator is a genius. The border has been a disaster long prior to her birth. Got to fix just the loopholes.
How about a fence, strong, long and wide from sea to sea?
How’s the fake rape allegations going, Martha?
Rarely is this brought up. It’s Known As Reciprocity. We should be treating anybody illegally crossing the Mexican border into the US the way the Mexican’s do treat any American illegally doing the same.crossing into Mexico. Entry denied, fined, and possible imprisonment, then deported .
Talk talk talk....
The time to do this was 2 years ago.
Sounds like McSally is hearing from voters and they are pissed.
Senator McSally is a day late and a dollar short, with dems now controlling the House nothing substancial is going to happen, they won’t chance alienating their Hispanic constituency before the 2020 election.
