Former President George W. Bush’s public policy organization states that amnesty for illegal aliens is “essential” to securing the United States-Mexico border as illegal immigration continues to soar under President Joe Biden’s administration.
In an op-ed for the Dallas Morning News, the George W. Bush Center’s Natalie Gonnella-Platts and Jenny Villatoro write that a massive amnesty for most of the nation’s 11-to-22 million illegal aliens is necessary as part of a broader border security initiative.
The op-ed is part of a larger amnesty coalition where Bush has lobbied Republican lawmakers for months to craft an amnesty for illegal aliens with the Biden administration — including increases to legal immigration levels beyond their already historically high rates.
The lobbying has been in coalition with corporate interests such as the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Business Roundtable, the Bloomberg-funded New American Economy, the Texas Association of Business, and taxpayer-funded refugee contractors.
Bush’s plan is merely a revitalization of his highly unpopular “Any Willing Worker” policy from the early 2000s, where his administration sought to open the nation’s borders to millions of illegal aliens willing to take low-wage jobs from Americans while increasing legal immigration to drive down U.S. wages in the labor market.
The amnesty coalition is hugely opposed by Republican voters, polling has shown.

BS!
W’s moron legacy telling us that if we just open the barn doors that the illegals will stop sneaking into America.
HUH? Oh, blogic.
His dad never did the follow through after Reagan’s Amnesty, WHO THE HELL THINKS HE WOULD NOT DO THE SAME???
Trump is making a HUGE mistake endorsing Rubio, just like he endorsed Grahamnesty!! I am DONE with this lesser of two evil BS! The ONLY person on this planet I will bother voting for is DeSantis everyone else can get SCREWED!! Can’t tell you how many fundraising letters I have received and sent back with a note telling them to get lost after letting our borders remain open AND letting a fraudulent election stand!! I AM DONE after 45+ years I am FINALLY awake and DONE!!
Amnesty is essential to the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) initiated by his father to steal the USA from its citizens by flooding it with foreigners.
He knew we would not vote for the Mew World Order, so he imported people who would.
They have gotten us to elect and re-elect Bush League Republicans whose main objective is a permanent Democrat majority.
Trump proved that’s a lie. He secured the border and it cost us nothing.
I send them back if they have a postage paid return envelope, otherwise they go straight in the trash.
George W. has to be one of, if not the, dumbest individuals to ever be President. I actually think Biden is smarter. He at least was in on the steal. Bush thinks that because he speaks some Spanish, that he is Spanish, and identifies with the Hispanic culture. He is truly a moron.
Leaving banks unlocked when they are closed is vital to securing the money.
Do you see just how stupid their position is?
So why didn't all the other rounds of amnesty secure the border and why would this one finally do it?
Wait. Where did that 22 million number come from? This is the first time I've seen a number larger than 11 million from a pro-amnesty source. Every other time it is the magical eleven million where no matter how many more come in every year or how few leave, die or are legalized the number totals to eleven million. Math like that drove Georg Cantor mad.
Personally, I think the number is eleven million because once it crossed ten million tolerance for illegals dropped. They couldn't walk it back to nine million, but they could keep it from ever growing again.
I would say ‘unbelievable ignorance,’ but this is GWB we’re talking about. What did the 1986 Amnesty do to secure our borders?
I’d also point out that after the 1986 amnesty deal, GHWB did 6-points worse with Latinos than Reagan did in 1984 and he did (I think) another six or more points worse again in 1992.
The southern border can never really be secured on its own.
A group of 300,000 aliens might storm the border at Tijuana. How would they be stopped in a manner that would be acceptable to the bleeding hearts of the USA?
The first sentence of Amendment XIV must be repealed. It might be replaced by something like: Each person born in the USA after ratification may only be granted under US law the citizenship of its mother 275 days prior to birth and, if Congress so desires, that of her bona fide husband as of 200 days prior to birth, for the first twenty-five years of its life.
The US must exit the Refugee Convention under Article 44 by proper official denunciation so we aren’t flooded by alien colonizers claiming to be refugees.
US law must be changed so that any refugee claimant admitted to the US, to be no more than 50,000 in any 12-month period, must have already been granted refugee status by another country and have lived in it for at least one year, if the refugee is not a Cuban targeted by Cuba’s communist government.
Refugees should not have a special path to citizenship or special access to welfare.
They know it is now in excess of 30 million so they are stretching it from 11 to 22 million.
The 1986 amnesty was supposed to be less than a million, turned out to be 3.2 million and now we have TEN TIMES that number of illegal aliens and it was all PLANNED.
Our electing Trump threw a wrench into their plan.
insane.
amnesty is the exact opposite of sealing our border against letting illegals into our country
amnesty would let millions of them stday in our country.
that is the definition of amnesty
ever sovereign nation has the right and duty to defend its borders
these Bushies are anti-American traitors!
Giving out free drugs is absolutely critical to stopping drug dependency.
Giving free liquor is critical for alcoholics to kick the habit.
I could go on and on but I think you get the Bush’s bullshit.
Sorry W. That myth was proven false a long time ago.
I’m thinking of cutting off the hand that I used to vote for that POS
“... amnesty for illegal aliens is “essential” to securing the United States-Mexico border ...”
correction: amnesty for illegal aliens will guarantee a constant flood of illegal aliens through the United States-Mexico border in the foreseeable future.
For years I thought that the Peanut Farmer was the worst ex President...now I’m beginning to have doubts.
