As long as Stephen Miller supports:

- Nationwide mandatory e-verify, with criminal penalties for employers
- Immediate arrest and deportation of the 8M DACA parents that are responsible for the DACA invasion.
- Immediate impregnable border security.
- Trump's campaign promise: "THEY ALL MUST GO".

then Miller speaks for me and the 63M Americans that voted for Campaign Trump.

Amnesty of illegals will end the Trump presidency in 2020, exactly as "Read my lips" ended Bush's presidency in 1992.

The problem is that 66 million voted for the other side and polling is 25-75 against you opinion. If that is the case, expect to get slaughtered in the 2018 elections and a lame duck presidency with the follow on impeachment over Russia and Money laundering - something GOP Senators won't be able to ignore in 2019, lest they get ousted in 2020 themselves.

But why after the 8th?

Just run a clean DACA bill on Wednesday and a clean CHIP Bill on Friday and go from there. It really isn't that hard. Waiting until the 8th just puts the Senate in the same position, CHIP is still unfunded and DACA is one month closer to expiration.

Tomorrow, the government is officially shut down. Follow your guidance, which is probably to come in to wrap up or to work if your agency has funding. Then we'll see what happens at noon.

So if we wrap up as instructed and they vote at noon do we stay and work 4 hours just in case or do we have to head home or kill time near work and then commute back for the afternoon? This is my first shutdown, obviously....

Check OPM. OPM says to check with your agency.

This, but my agency website says check USA.gov which has nothing.

That would put the Dems in a very nasty place. They would have to give some tidbits that Ryan will go for, otherwise he will just refuse to bring it to the floor, despite whatever promises have been made to the contrary.

But unlike other advanced industrialized countries, our nation also gives preferences to the extended family members of citizens. While well intentioned, this policy has had some unfortunate consequences. This policy has spurred a wave of mostly unskilled immigration into our country. Today, only one in 15 of the more than 1 million immigrants who are admitted every year are given a visa because of their job skills or entrepreneurial ability. The other 14 immigrants are admitted without regard to their skills. That means that every year we are admitting hundreds of thousands of workers with almost no consideration for the impact their immigration will have on American jobs and wages. That is one of the reasons why polling has shown that over 70 percent of Americans favor limiting chain migration to only the spouses and minor children of legal permanent residents and citizens.

This policy puts downward pressure on the wages of people who toil with their hands, who work on their feet. Americans with high school-level educations have seen their wages fall by 2 percent since the 1970s, while inflation has made the cost of living even higher. For Americans who haven’t finished high school, it’s even worse. Their wages have fallen by nearly 20 percent.
