” Up to now, “comprehensive immigration” had always been a code phrase for amnesty or path-to-citizenship.”
It still is.
In this bill, which we have not seen yet, some of them claim it will specifically exclude path-to-citizenship. Of course, Rubio's promises were lies. Also, even if their original bill has that exact language, we still might get amnesty when the whole sausage process finishes.
We;ll see. If amnesty fails, Obama plans to beat the GOP over the head with it. He will go home with at least a consolation prize.
