The goal is to kinda sorta placate the conservative base whose votes they need while wooing the left-leaning Latinos whose votes they want.


This is a dumba** goal. It certainly didn’t help Republicans after 1986 amnesty.

I think it’ll go with legal status that will allow you to work and pay taxes...

So there would be taxation without representation. Talk about a winning issue for Democrats in future elections!

NO!.... Ship illegals back to their home country, confiscate their valuables to fund their returns if they cannot afford the cost.

RE :”Immigration advocates have targeted McCarthy, whose district includes a large Hispanic population.
“[I]t is unclear whether Democrats would back such a compromise,” says the Hill. I don’t think it’s that unclear. Easy solution: The GOP could create a path to citizenship for DREAMers, which they seem inclined to do anyway, and offer that to Democrats in return for legalization without citizenship for adult illegals. Democrats will happily take that half-loaf.”

The above suggests that Dems would still have trouble accepting legalization with no citizenship, even though they are getting desperate for a deal.(looks like play acting)

But I noticed today that my House rep who is a lib Dem says NOTHING about citizenship on his website under issues>immigration. I called him up and complained about that.

If you have a Dem as a representative call him and Demand full citizenship as a condition of ANY deal, and I can help you with exactly what to say to convince him you are serious.

If you have a GOP as a representative, you could call him and Demand no citizenship at all for anyone, be a condition of a deal, Or whatever you think will work.

Great generals win battles with two pronged attacks from multiple sides.

I'd prefer action via governors.

Jeff Sessions warned that the nation’s undocumented immigrants would “be able to immediately apply for much better jobs than they currently have.” “Maybe they were working at a restaurant part time. Now they’re going to be truck drivers, heavy-equipment operators competing at the factories and plants and we’ve got an unemployment rate that’s very high,” he said.

RE :”I'd prefer action via governors.”

In my state Martin O Malley’s Dems passed a law explicitly giving drivers licenses to illegals, where-as before the law had a loophole in it allowing fraudulent documentation from other countries for illegals to use.

The problem is to meet federal requirements the licenses are marked ‘not to be used for federal IDs’ so they clearly identify illegals. A special marked drivers license for illegals.

I would support that, so long as they’re also never eligible for welfare, but you know as soon as they do this, the leftists will start pining for how “unfair” it is, and they’ll get welfare, citizenship, voting, etc. So since you know the left can’t be trusted to stand by a deal, there’s no point in doing anything except drawing a line in the sand.

Well the first lawsuit on this will end up with them all getting citizenship. We know the drill by now.

Who cares about him, what about Dana Wynter?

The real costs are the entitlement programs. Heritage estimated it will cost $6.3 trillion. And what about the tens of millions the lawbreakers will sponsor to enter this country thru chain migration, i.e., family reunification?

Conferring rights and privileges upon illegal aliens has a corrosive effect on the Rule of Law, the very foundation of our Republic. It is also a slap in the face to legal immigrants who have followed the rules and obeyed the laws. There are over 4 million intending immigrants waiting their turn overseas to enter the U.S. legally. They have completed the paperwork, had physicals and background checks. Putting the lawbreakers at the head of the line allowing them to stay and work here sends the wrong message.
