Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) suggests a Republican-led amnesty plan for millions of illegal aliens living in the United States could be unveiled “probably next week.”
In an interview with Fox Business Network’s Larry Kudlow, Salazar said she is working on her own piece of legislation that would give “legality” to millions of illegal aliens.
“What would the GOP do? That’s exactly what we’re trying to put together and we’re going to have something for you and for the viewers probably next week,” Salazar said.
Salazar said providing an amnesty to illegal aliens who have been in the U.S. for at least five years is necessary to “send a message to the Latinos or the browns in this country that we in the Republican Party, we have the same values entrenched in our party that are in their hearts.”
“Don’t you think that the Republican Party should be talking to people like me? Well, we have not,” Salazar claimed. “We have not done it. Why? For whatever reason.”
Despite Salazar’s claims, former President Donald Trump had increased his support among Hispanic Americans between 2016 to 2020 from 28 percent to 32 percent after surging interior immigration enforcement and reducing overall legal immigration levels to boost U.S. wages and job opportunities for the lowest of wage-earners.
In fact, Trump won over more Hispanic Americans in the 2020 election than pro-amnesty Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) did in the 2008 presidential election. McCain, one of the co-sponsors of the “Gang of Eight” amnesty in 2013, won 31 percent against former President Obama’s 67 percent.
Trump, running on the most pro-enforcement GOP platform in decades, last year boosted his support in deep blue majority-Hispanic communities that sit along the U.S.-Mexico border. [...]

Surely you meant “$election”.
Yeh that’s going to make the GOP voters happy. 🙄
When an obedient pet does something nice - like a trick - the pet gets a pat in the head and maybe a little treat. While Pelosi give Rep. Salazar a pat on the head and a little treat?
Just curious.
Most of the new Republicans are the same as the old ones. It makes one wonder how the Republican party can possibly be reformed.
Suicide by corruption and stupidity.
No Amnesty -
Things like this are why the GOP can GFT!
The culmination of the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).
For 30 years the GOP has been cooperating with the Democrats to fundamentally transform this country by flooding it with foreigners.
They KNOW they are importing a permanent Democrat majority.
Micro Rubio and Hoeven voted for the last attempt are are up in 2022.
Re-electing Assistant Democrats will NEVER Make America Great Again.
Except, of course, that we do not invade their countries and live off of their public dole.
I’m still wondering WHO they think they represent!!
Well, that will put the final nail in the GOPe’s coffin!
Only by primarying Uniparty lapdogs - which I believe in the past has been much more talked about than acted on. If President Trump can get patriots behind him to actually act on this idea, I think there is a chance (what odds, I wouldn't care to specify).
How about, NO.
This is just more white privilege.
President Trump offered a pathway to citizenship for 20 million ‘DREAMers’ in return for funding the Wall, but was rebuffed by the DemocRATs.
The GOP-e still thinks pandering to the left will get you left votes.
Fools
I’m sorry. Perhaps I fell asleep. Did the millions of *Americans* who were put out of work because of the Covid shutdowns all get re-employed? Do we have full employment again? Because otherwise, why on earth would you bring in *more* low-skilled people if the unemployment rate is in double-digits? Are you trying to kill the remaining middle class?
Let me know when they pass Amnesty for Bank Robbery.
I’m shopping for a new Ram 1500 Pickup and the Base Model just isn’t doing it for me.
I decided I need a Laramie or a Limited Model with all the bels and whistles.
Except, of course, that we do not invade their countries and live off of their public dole.
LOL! I suppose it depends on exactly what she means by "our party."
It’s going to happen one way or the other. The GOP is offering options.
Death by firing squad or death by slow strangulation.

I don’t know if the GOP is talking to people like Salazar, but this information shows that they should not be listening to Salazar.
