At this moment there is a bill pending in Congress called the New Way Forward Act. It’s received almost no publicity, which is unfortunate as well as revealing.
The legislation is sponsored by 44 House Democrats, including Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. At roughly 4,400 words, it’s almost exactly as long as the U.S. Constitution.
Like the Constitution, this legislation is designed to create a whole new country. The bill would entirely remake our immigration system, with the explicit purpose of ensuring that criminals are able to move here, and settle here permanently, with impunity.
You may think we’re exaggerating for effect. We’re not – not even a little.
The New Way Forward act is the most radical single piece of legislation we’ve seen proposed in this country. It makes the Green New Deal look like the status quo.
A document produced by Democrats to promote the bill says: “Convictions … should not lead to deportation.”
Keep in mind, we’re not talking about convictions for double parking. The bill targets felony convictions – serious crimes that send you to prison for years. A press release from Rep., Jesus Garcia, D-Ill., is explicit about this.
Garcia brags that the bill will break the “prison to deportation pipeline.” How does the bill do that? Under current U.S. law, legal U.S. immigrants can be deported if they commit an “aggravated felony” or a “crime of moral turpitude” – that is, a vile, depraved act, like molesting a child. Under the New Way Forward Act, “crimes of moral turpitude” are eliminated entirely as a justification for deportation. And the category of “aggravated felony” gets circumscribed too.
What does that mean?
Consider this: Under current law, immigrants who commit serious crimes such as robbery, fraud, or child sexual abuse

Fat chance that would ever get signed.
Well... isn’t that the Leftist model?
The criminals are the ones the Left thinks are treated unfairly.
Innocent victims, they’re just a bunch of racists or ‘sumpin’ else.
It might not get anywhere but the fact it has 44 sponsors is the important part. Since they are all up for reelection should cause their names to be publicized in the districts they are running in.
Are these criminals deported after they serve their sentences or before?
It’s astounding that such a bill is being considered.
This is something that La Raza or MEChA or CAIR would have dreamt up.
ISIS would love it.
They won’t be deported at all if this bill passes.
And it’s retroactive for criminal aliens who have already been deported.
ICE is required to actively find them and bring them back to the United States. Not kidding.
Deport the squad.
If they are all shot to death resisting arrest, kinda solves the problem doesn’t it!
there is so much bad stuff hanging out there.. if not for Trump.
after his next 4 years.... who?
I'm not much for the lesser of two evils - but bills like this are why the Senate MUST remain in GOP, even GOPe, hands. The Rats are going bats*** crazy.
Yes!!
And, taking back the toxic House would be icing on the cake!
“The legislation is sponsored by 44 House Democrats, including Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez...”

These people are enemies of this nation. They have infiltrated to the highest levels of government.
We live in interesting times.
You understand the situation exactly.
Brought to us by the 1965 Immigration Act, our refugee resettlement program, Republican open border idiots like Dubya, and enemies of the historic American people like Obama.
No.
Find out where the members of the “squad” live and build section 8 housing in their neighborhoods for the criminal wetbacks to live in or better yet tell the “squaddies” that this is a chance for them to put their money where their mouth is, that they are to take these people into their own homes; if they squeal about it, tell them this is what you wanted you deal with it.
Time for these hypocrites to suffer the consequences of their own ideas.
