Menendez: Democratic package best chance for immigration reform
The Hill ^ | 07/29/2021 | Rafael Bernal

Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Thursday he doubts there is a Plan B for immigration reform if attempts to include provisions through the budget process fail.

"If we don't have reconciliation I'm not sure that there's a pathway forward," Menendez told immigration advocates on a call organized by the American Business Immigration Coalition.

He added that any legislative avenue outside of reconciliation would need the support of at least 10 Republican senators, an unlikely prospect for an issue as politicized as immigration.

I never, ever am interested in any Democrat package.

I don’t like being screwed and that’s all the DNC does to America.

There already is a pathway to citizenship. It starts at the US Embassy in your home country by submitting an application for a proper visa. My wife did it. The system works fine if you are honest and sincere.

If they can’t cheat using Reconciliation then they can’t force their poison down our throats. He didn’t mention the ‘Election Reform’ in that bill. The RATs are hoping to sneak that one under the radar. All it will do , afterall , is kill America.

They can’t even do it legally via reconciliation.

Reconciliation is all about SPENDING AND TAXES.

Policy change is specifically excluded.
