Once they've been given Amnesty, they'll quickly be on to bigger and better things (like after the mid '60's amnesty). Or, at least half of them will. The other half will continue to sponge off of our welfare system.
Then we can repeat the cycle...as we'll need more "illegals" to come in to do the jobs the *former* illegals won't do.
Again, why would ANY Repub want this? It's insane.
If all 200 Democrats in the House voted for an Immigration Reform bill, it would only take 18 Republican RINOs to join with them to pass it. 85 House Republicans voted with all the Democrats on the government shut down/debt ceiling bill.
RINOs from districts with large Latino populations could do it. For example, Darrell Issa’s 49th Congressional District in California is 26% Latino.
Some politicians put self-interest ahead of national interest.
