>>2) Cut off all Federal aid to any local or state juridiction which refuses to cooperate in enforcing immigration laws<<
This bill explicitly protects such local or state govts. It’s so bad we can devine what special interest groups had their say in the secret meetings. I doubt Bush has even read the bill.
“I doubt Bush has even read the bill.”
Sometimes I wonder if Bush can even read. He certainly has a problem speaking. Perhaps he is more comfortable in say, Spanish!
Seriously, most bill sponsors never read these giant bills in their entirety. If they do, they only read sections they are interested in, or ask their legislative aids to read them and summarize them. SInce they often are written by legislative aids, that leads to further confusion.
Omnibus Bills should be forbidden by the Rules of COngress. Its too easy to sneak crap in there, which, of course, is why they are created in the first place.
