Two leftist congresswomen have introduced an illegal-alien amnesty bill they have disguised as a “reasonable, compassionate, and final solution to America’s immigration crisis.”
Republican Maria Salazar of Florida and Democrat Veronica Escobar of Texas call their bill “The Dignity Act.” They claim it will secure the southwest border, deter illegal immigration, and provide a tough pathway to permanent legal status for illegals.
Critics claim the bill is an amnesty that will not only halt mass deportations, but also permit illegal-alien gang members to stay in the country.
Frighteningly, nine Republicans have co-sponsored the bill.
Salazar, the daughter of Cuban exiles, delivered her message on the bill twice — in English for Americans and Spanish for illegals.
The bill requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) “to gain situational awareness and operational advantage of the southern border,” which is all well and good, except for one thing. The Secure Fence Act already requires the secretary of homeland security to maintain “operational control” of the border.
As well, it requires DHS to “to deploy physical barriers,” which the Trump administration has done and is doing, the bill’s summary says. It mandates that employers use E-Verify to validate eligibility for employment.
Claiming to “reform asylum,” the bill ends catch and release at the borders and creates at least three “humanitarian campuses” where asylum applicants must stay while they await adjudication of their cases. While the campus administrators will run background checks on the asylees, the campuses will be open to radical leftist troublemakers:
Private organizations and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) may have access to the facility to provide humanitarian assistance or legal counsel.

We need the “Get the F*ck Out” bill to be introduced
No, millions of illegals will not be allowed to stay here in big complexes the american people will have to fund. In addition to the millions not caught still using resources all across the country.
They can wait in mexico or their home countries, not here.
Mike Lawler is setting up a run for New York state governor against Hochul. First a Muslim Marxist know-nothing to rule over the world’s center of commercial might and now a barely-disguised Democrat using the ‘R’ association for campaign money.
Florida’s calling, Up-staters.

Word you can think of that fits before the word NO!”

I looked for a TN Rep named Andy Cohen.
There is no Rep named Andy Cohen.
There is a Memphis Area Rep Named Steve Cohen.
Is that who you are talking about?
Stupid idea. Going No Where.
Just a way to stop Trump from “Fixing” a ComDem TrainWreck.
This is the way to destroy America.
Yeah
Women need nanny’s, need illegals, need cheap labor.
Women are natural socialists.
Does anyone doubt that the USA would be a TOTALLY different country if women were not allowed to vote? IMO much better.
Or the AMF bill
Why is the assumption always that legal immigration is a good thing? All immigration needs to stop for 50 years!

“...The founding fathers never said or supported any such thing-women have always had equal rights from the fed-the states set up their own voting laws regarding women voting then....”
Yeah...right.
Let’s repeal the 19th Amendment....LOL
I don’t disagree at all. My point was just that the concerns of those currently petitioning for citizenship will ALL be addressed before we entertain requests from lawbreakers. We already have plenty of homegrown lawbreakers, we don’t need to import more.
