Senator: Obama’s Amnesty Gives Illegals A Fast-Track To Voting Booth

President Barack Obama’s Nov. 21 amnesty puts millions of illegals on a fast-track to citizenship, Utah Sen. Mike Lee announced Thursday.

Obama and his administration “have cleared the pathway to citizenship for millions of people who have crossed out borders illegally,” Lee said in a Thursday speech on the Senate floor.

“They know what they have done, and it is illegal,” he added.

Obama’s amnesty allows illegals with U.S.-born children to briefly leave the country, perhaps for a business meeting in Canada, and then be given “advanced parole” by border officials that lets them legally return to the United States.

Once they have legally returned under “advanced parole,” they can be immediately sponsored for a green card and citizenship by their adult child, he said.

That process bypasses U.S. law that requires illegals to leave the country for 10 years before their U.S.-born adult children can sponsor them for citizenship, Lee said.

Lee spoke shortly before Republican House Speaker John Boehner tried to muscle through a 2015 budget that doesn’t bar federal spending to implement Obama’s amnesty.

The budget’s support for Obama’s amnesty is opposed by numerous GOP legislators and a significant slice of the GOP base.

Obama’s amnesty offers work permits, drivers’ licenses, Medicare and Social Security to five million illegals who have children with citizenship or green cards.

The five million could get citizenship via Obama’s new parole technique.

“The president claims that he is not changing this rule, but that’s exactly what he’s doing,” Lee said.

“So long as you have a business meeting in Toronto. you can get permission to leave and be paroled back into the country on your return … [and] once you do that. … You can get a green card and get citizenship,” Lee said.

The method is illegal, said Lee, because Congress has narrowly defined when the administration can offer “advanced parole” to foreigners, he said.

Parole can only be offered to people “only on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit.”

These reasons include allowing a person without a visa to attend the imminent funeral of a relative, or to act as a witness in a trial, he said.

Obama’s plan to provide parole to many returning illegals “clearly violate U.S. law,” he said.

We have witnessed a silent coup of the US gov’t.

Silent, my left cheek.

It's been fairly loud.

Not bloody, yet, but there will be killing fields. There always are.

[Lazamataz]

And the Republicans for the little they are worth will never see the inside of the Capitol building again.

Absolutely, but the sellouts do not care. The Chamber of Communism and their minions will be providing the sellouts very lucrative and lifetime jobs doing very little work. It was part of the deal.

[Lazamataz]

Weak kneed Republicans need to find a backbone. It’s getting real close to tar and feathers time.

Correction: It has nothing to do with backbone. It has to do with outright and willful treason, bought and paid for by the Chamber of Communism and their minions.

And it is wayyyy past tar-and-feather time. That time came when the Federal Reserve was created in December of 1913.

[Old Sarge]

Yep.

[Resolute Conservative]

Lol, how many of the 20 million low educated and low skilled invaders go to “business meetings”? Code for leave the country and plan to infiltrate other family members/friends as invaders. Who needs a Trojan Horse?

[wagglebee]

I told her that Boehner is using Pelosi tactics, and that’s reprehensible; that we’re better than that.

At the party level there isn't a bit of difference between the GOP and the Democrats.

BOTH parties want Obamacare.

BOTH parties wand amnesty.

BOTH parties want to destroy conservatives.

BOTH parties want to advance homosexualism.

NEITHER party cares about the deficit.

The only difference between the two is that each wants to be the one to take the credit FOR ADVANCING THE EXACT SAME AGENDA and blame the other for failing to do so.

[OldArmy52]

So dies the USA.
Thus is born the USSA.
In case anyone has wondered what it would be like to live in a One Party Police State, now you know.
The Dems and the Repubs are 90 percent the same.
At least until the Repub Party is purged of RINO’s.
But the new Boner/McSurrender Pork Bill has provisions to fight off candidates who actually would represent the People.
And enables Obola’s flooding of the American electorate with new, forever-Dem-voting, FSArmy millions.
Great plan to turn Red States Blue.
The USA under current leadership may now have received a death blow.
Vote Dem or GOPe, get the same thing.
Diff is, Dem’s knife you in the chest.
RINO’s like Boner/McSurrender stick the knife in your back.

” Correction: It has nothing to do with backbone. It has to do with outright and willful treason, bought and paid for by the Chamber of Communism and their minions.”

The fix is in.

[lavaroise]

Why dont we give social security to 1.5 billion Chinese while at it? The NWO hubris is total surrender to terrorists.

They think they can play games by advertising the death and the turning of illegal fascism on us, we shall see.

OBAMA IS COLLUDING W/ THIRD WORLD AGENTS ADVOCATIMG THE OVERTHROW OF THE US GOVERNMENT included in the $trillion dollar funding bill is an extortion payment to Central America-----they get $266 million tax dollars to "help them (GAG) assist child victims of violence." (more on this below)

===========================================

REALITY CHECK---WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS TO HUMANITARIAN US FOREIGN AID The crooked Guatemalan president absconded to the US w/ the country's foreign aid money.

Former Guatemala Prez used US banks to launder millions (Portillo was elected to (ahem) "redistribute" the nation's wealth)

READ ON An ex-president of the Central American country of Guatemala faced charges in New York that he used US banks to launder millions looted from his impoverished nation. Alfonso Portillo took office in 2000 pledging to (ahem) redistribute Guatemala’s wealth.

Portillo, 61, allegedly ran scams to drain the impoverished country's coffers. The feds say Portillo embezzled about $2.5M provided by the Taiwanese embassy....$1.5 million was earmarked for “Libraries for Peace”....books for school kids.

Portillo personally endorsed three, $500,000 checks issued against an account at the Intl Bank of China in Manhattan, then deposited the cash in the Miami bank account of a Guatemalan bank controlled by “a close associate and political supporter”.

The embezzled money was funneled to bank accounts in Paris in the names of Portillo’s ex-wife and daughter.

Portillo swindled nearly $4M defense funds ...and plundered the national bank run by his alleged co-conspirator through overdrafts financed by public reserves.

Stolen foreign aid money paid for expensive watches and cars, for Portillo and his associates, according to the indictment. (NY POST 5/28/13)

REMINDER: $266 million of our tax dollars are going to Central America federales to "Help them assist child victims of violence."

Guatemalan President Otto Perez warns the US will be
inundated w/ even more contagious illegals if billions
of US tax dollars are not handed over.

GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - The United States should provide billions of dollars to help Central American nations curb the flow of illegal migrants, Guatemalan President Otto Perez said, and his government warns the problem will get worse if Washington fails to help.

Fleeing violence, trying to reach relatives already in the United States or seeking jobs, record numbers of child migrants from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador have been stopped at the southern U.S. border this year, causing widespread alarm. Last month, the three countries pitched Washington an ambitious development plan to confront the issue.

They want to pump about $10 billion into the region to create jobs and lift living standards, with the bulk of funding coming from the United States, Perez told Reuters. He hopes the plan could come up with about $2 billion a year from 2015 to 2019, a sum he equated to roughly 10 percent of annual U.S. spending on border security and immigration enforcement.

"Now we understand it's not simply a question of the United States saying: 'Right, here's $2 billion a year for five years' for example - the governments of the three countries have to play their part too," the conservative Perez, who took power in early 2012, said in an interview late on Monday.

The US aid package would boost infrastructure and provide more jobs in all three countries, especially in areas that send large numbers of migrants to the United States, he added.

The three Central American governments are urging the United States to shoulder the lion's share of the costs, arguing that U.S. demand for illegal narcotics has fueled violence among drug gangs across much of the impoverished region.

"The United States has to support this, it has no other option," Guatemala's foreign minister, Carlos Morales, told Reuters. "If they don't support it, the crisis will kick off again, you can count on it."

Perez said he hoped the United States would put up about 60 percent of funding. "But we'll have to discuss it calmly and see what each individual country can do, and what can be achieved by common consent."

During meetings in New York in September, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told Central American officials he hoped Congress could approve about $300 million in funding, Morales said, noting the sum was "nothing" given the scale of the problem.

Central American leaders are due to meet Vice President Joe Biden on Nov. 12 in Washington to sound out U.S. support for their plan, Morales added.--SNIP--

[VerySadAmerican]

Unless 6,000,000 new conservative voters are found somewhere the republican party just killed itself.

[GeronL]

Why would conservative voters vote for the GOP

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

[Conservative Gato]

C’mon residents of Ohio, start the recall process on Boehner!

Get him out of there before he teams up with 0bama again to further hurt this country.

CGato

[VerySadAmerican]

Let me rephrase that: Unless they find 6,000,000 new RINO voters somewhere the republican party is dead.

[GeronL]

lol

yep.

[FlingWingFlyer]

The bad news is, once Barry and his commie ‘RAT pals get the illegals registered to vote, they’ll be dumping them on the backs of the American taxpayers (The 52%). Obama’s “unaccompanied” illegal alien invaders are the ones Alexis de Toqueville warned us about.

[ripley]

Rejoice comrades, the revolution continues!

Foreign people whose loyalty is to Progressivism will be given voting rights in proportion to the votes needed to assure Progressive victory at the polls in 2016.

Rejoice!!!

/s/

IMHO

[Theodore R.]

Not possible, people in OH support Boehner just as the Kentuckians back McC and the Arizonans the other McC.

[Conservative Gato]

Americans overwhelmingly don’t want amnesty in any shape or form so you would think even their constituents would feel stabbed in the back by Boehner and these other politicians.
