So, Republicans, fix immigration!

Anonymous
Enforce the law and immigration will fix itself.

Another step in the right direction:

The Department of Justice announced Thursday it has filed a lawsuit against a Colorado corporation for allegedly discriminating against U.S. workers.

The complaint alleges that in 2016, Crop Production discriminated against at least three United States citizens by refusing to employ them as seasonal technicians in El Campo, Texas, because Crop Production preferred to hire temporary foreign workers under the H-2A visa program.

This is the first complaint filed stemming from the “Protecting U.S. Workers Initiative,” which was launched on March 1.

A Civil Rights Division official told Fox News that since the initiative’s launch, the division has opened 29 investigations of “potential discrimination against U.S. workers based on a hiring preference for foreign visa workers.”

The immigration problem would fix itself for the most part if the existing law were implemented consistently. There would be no need for a wall or anything else but there has to be a serious effort to implement the law.

The R's don't want to fix this any more than they want to outlaw abortion. How would they fundraise campaign without these issues to "fight" for?

Shhhhhh! Don't tell the R base that though. It'll ruin the charade.


Hmm. Why is it the liberals are apologists for illegal immigrants and anchor babies? We see this all the time here on DCUM alone. Liberals *encourage* illegal immigrants to come here and stay here. They lobby hard for amnesty and citizenship for illegals. They call anyone who wants illegal immigration to stop, "RACISTS." What about this don't you understand? Liberal leaders and the people who vote for them are illegal immigrants biggest champions. Don't try passing this one off on the Republicans. You liberals fight at every turn to let these people stay in the country - ILLEGALLY. Hypocrites of the highest order.

This is exactly correct! It is part of the identity politics that has become an integral part of the Democratic party. It is nothing more than pandering for votes. They get 70% of the Hispanic vote and it is all a calculated move to maintain this group's support. The irony is that in the process they end up alienating the white vote in middle-America where the Hispanic population is not as significant and the net effect is that they lose many of those states. So they lose the electoral college and wonder why that has happened.

What is more is that legal immigrants who become citizens are less than kindly disposed to illegals who try and jump the line to attain status. We have quite a few immigrants who came here legally express their outrage on DCUM at the Democratic party's espousal of illegals.

The one thing that has changed is that blacks who were at one time vigorously opposed to illegals because they competed for jobs have become less of a factor for Democrats on this issue since they will vote Democratic in any event and can be taken for granted.

Well you guys are in charge now, so quit bitching and fix it. That is, if you can convince the R leadership to actually do it. Their pockets are still wide open to big business.

There is nothing to fix!

The existing laws make it clear that someone who is here illegally has no right to be in the country. The one thing that Roy Moore's victory should have made clear to Republican leadership is that amnesty is not on the cards while Trump is in office.

Except that it's the R business owners who benefit the most financially from illegal immigrant labor.

If someone is here illegally, they are subject to deportation and they have no right to amnesty.

End of story!


If there's nothing to fix, why do people keep complaining about it?

Sweetie, you have misused the word "apologist" again. "Apologist" does not mean someone who apologizes.

And the only people who encourage illegal immigration are the employers who hire the undocumented workers. Period.


Plus, as OP said - it doesn't matter what Liberals think - REPUBLICANS ARE IN CHARGE. Anything that hasn't happened is 100% on you.

Sweetie, I'm well aware of what "apologist" means (are you?), and I used it correctly.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/apologist
Definition of apologist: One who speaks or writes in defense of someone or something.

Precisely what liberals do. They "speak or write in defense of" illegal immigrants. Period.

Have a great day championing the "rights" of illegal immigrants.

I agree completely. Several of our neighbors are legal immigrants who waited *years* for their citizenship. They are vocally opposed to illegal immigrants coming here and jumping ahead of all the other immigrants who have followed the law to attain U.S. citizenship.

And you're right - the Democratic party absolutely takes blacks for granted, assuming they'll always vote Dem. I posted this article earlier, but it bears repeating. It's written by a black woman as a letter to the Dem. party, warning them that their support may dwindle if the Dems keep backing illegal immigrants, who compete the most with blacks for jobs.

And it's still in the best interests of the Democratic party to pander to illegal immigrants and Hispanics because they want their vote. Pretty obvious. But sure, blame it on "big business."

DP. That would be fine with me. Just stop illegal immigration. And stop sanctuary cities from sheltering illegal immigrants. Follow the LAW.
