Desantis voted against Trumps Border security legislation in 2018!
HR6136
Border Security and immigration Reform act
“Desantis voted against Trumps Border security legislation in 2018!”
You keep posting this and never give the details.
Desantis voted against Trumps Amnesty bill along with 110 other decent conservatives.
This bill gave a pathway to citizenship for illegals.
Good find!
I tell you, they want us to back one or the other.
We should find a better candidate to back on our own.
He sure did.
As did Gaetz (FL), Barletta (PA), King (IA) and many other immigration hawks.
Gaetz explains why:
"Not only did this legislation provide a pathway to citizenship for millions who are in our country illegally, it allows them to sponsor their family members—many of whom were responsible for illegally bringing them into the country in the first place. This is unfair to the millions of people waiting in line and following the proper legal procedures for green cards and, eventually, citizenship. Though I admired the emphasis on border security found in the Border Security and Immigration Reform Act of 2018, the fact remains that this bill did little to address the causes of our broken immigration system: it does not require the implementation of E-Verify, does not end chain-migration, and does nothing to address the crisis of dangerous and lawless ‘sanctuary cities.’"Gaetz official statement on why he voted NO on HR 6136 quote:
Get your facts straight, AuntB.
When it came time to vote for Trump's wall, and not this lousy amnesty bill, DeSantis came through.
