GOP Congresswoman: Republican-Led Amnesty Plan Coming ‘Next Week’
Breitbart ^ | 2 Mar 2021 | JOHN BINDER

Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) suggests a Republican-led amnesty plan for millions of illegal aliens living in the United States could be unveiled “probably next week.”

In an interview with Fox Business Network’s Larry Kudlow, Salazar said she is working on her own piece of legislation that would give “legality” to millions of illegal aliens.

“What would the GOP do? That’s exactly what we’re trying to put together and we’re going to have something for you and for the viewers probably next week,” Salazar said.

Salazar said providing an amnesty to illegal aliens who have been in the U.S. for at least five years is necessary to “send a message to the Latinos or the browns in this country that we in the Republican Party, we have the same values entrenched in our party that are in their hearts.”

“Don’t you think that the Republican Party should be talking to people like me? Well, we have not,” Salazar claimed. “We have not done it. Why? For whatever reason.”

Despite Salazar’s claims, former President Donald Trump had increased his support among Hispanic Americans between 2016 to 2020 from 28 percent to 32 percent after surging interior immigration enforcement and reducing overall legal immigration levels to boost U.S. wages and job opportunities for the lowest of wage-earners.

In fact, Trump won over more Hispanic Americans in the 2020 election than pro-amnesty Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) did in the 2008 presidential election. McCain, one of the co-sponsors of the “Gang of Eight” amnesty in 2013, won 31 percent against former President Obama’s 67 percent.

Trump, running on the most pro-enforcement GOP platform in decades, last year boosted his support in deep blue majority-Hispanic communities that sit along the U.S.-Mexico border. [...]

Are you trying to kill the remaining middle class?

The Uniparty fears a strong middle class, and prefers universal dependence on Uncle Sugar.

NOT ONE DIME to the Republican Party. Most of them are traitors to the American people, and domestic enemies of the Constitution. Very few exceptions, like Greene and Boebert.

Republicans racing to see if they can piss off their base faster than the Democrats. Where does this moron get the idea that conservatives want amnesty for illegal parasites so that their vote gets diluted by people who have no clue as to what this country is about and are only interested in hopping on the welfare gravy train?

Not enough face-palms in the world to express my contempt for this idiocy.

Here he is, kids. Your new ruler, El Jefe de Calipornia, the leader of Los Illegales when they get "papers":

The World quakes at the thought of El Primero Mexicano marshaling his Army of Democracy to smite them.

Not.

Most of the new Republicans are the same as the old ones. It makes one wonder how the Republican party can possibly be reformed.

Any Republican advocating amnesty needs to be primaried. They need to know this is unacceptable. They don't seem to care. A constitutional convention would be required to reverse this. We need to work for that. It will put fear into to these Swamp creatures.

You feel that you deserve your hard earned money.
They feel that they deserve your hard earned money.

Same values.

I like my Amnesty plan:
- free one-way ticket home for all illegal who will go voluntarily, and no prosecution so long as they agree to and keep a promise never to return, and
- prison for the rest of the illegals.

Well, aside from my tagline, they obviously don’t care about votes since they control the whole process thereof themselves.

When clowns such as Salazar claim the Republicans have not been talking to their “community,” what they really mean is that Republicans have not offered the type of voter bribes the Dems offer.

This is the Republican’s version of #METOO...

Counter-propose a destructive, silly leftist idea with a slightly smaller version to make it seem as though they are cool and care.
