The House measure would authorize $30 billion to build a border wall and invest in other border security measures, end family-based immigration and eliminate the diversity visa lottery program — all of which were pillars outlined at a White House meeting earlier this month.

such simple progressive concepts. why have democrats abandoned the american worker?

And here you go, folks. Enforcing the immigration laws is a Republican goal. It is very telling that enforcing the law will cause Democrats to turn out for the midterm elections.

No, dear. READ, READ before you shoot off. The bill is a hard-line immigration one that not even all Republicans like and is DOA in the senate. The Freedom Caucus is forcing moderates to either alienate their moderate constituents (good for Democrats), many in purple border states, or break with their own party (devour themselves).

No, sweetheart, read the bill before you shoot off. It is a bill that simply enforces immigration law. Just because you characterize it as hard line does not make it so. Whatever that is even supposed to mean.

There are some things in it that are a little harsh--like having to obey the law or risk deportation. Maybe, the GOP could negotiate those things.

Then why don;t all republicans support it?

Why won't anyone answer the question? Why don't all Republicans support this new bill if it's simple enforcement of existing law? (Which is not what a bill does.)

Yes, but it is curious that he never tried to get citizenship. Must not bother him too much to be deported if he couldn't be bothered.

Also, I think the stories about him left out some details: domestic abuse charges, for one. DUI for another.

Nevertheless, why didn't he apply for citizenship? Seems simple enough. He was eligible.

Here is a newsflash - not all green card holder want to get citizenship. It is a choice and people should not be judged based on their choice which American laws allows. I applied my citizenship after 10 years of my greencard. I did not want to renew the GC, so I decided to apply for citizenship. No, I do not have anything in my past for which I can be deported, but who knows. But it is detrimental to the health of the country if only perfect angels are allowed to maintain legal residency. It is completely racist to hold first generation immigrants/citizens to a much higher standard than who is a 2nd generation citizen.

So this country has welcomed you with open arms and you have made your life here is an immigrant and now you cry racism against its inhabitants. Disgusting.

Yes I am allowed to question my country and it's inhabitants as much you are allowed to. I still live in a democracy and my country gives me that right. What is disgusting is you will close your eyes to inhuman and racist treatment of other immigrants after you are citizen of the country which is based on the principle of welcoming immigrants.

This is a good example of Democrats wanting everyone illegally to be able to stay here. This man is not a DACA recipient. But libs ball at the suggestion he should not be here illegally. Oh, and it’s a compete LIE that he has never been in trouble with the law. But that doesn’t matter to libs.

You have kids? What sort of schools do they attend? Because behind closed doors all the liberals I know can't stand illegal aliens. They only pretend to in order to sound virtuous.
