The WSJ is calling the Repub's bluff.
The Wall Street Journal editorial board urged Republicans in Congress on Sunday to reach a deal on border security rather than saving the issue as a campaign matter.
“As for House Republicans, they promised in 2022 to do something about the migrant surge, and here is their opening,” the editorial board wrote on Sunday. “It’s not as if they have much else to tout when they campaign for re-election. If they won’t accept this rare chance at incremental progress, voters can fairly conclude that Republicans want to exploit the border election after election without actually solving the problem.”
One of the main criticisms of POT politics over the last few decades is their propensity to put the party's electoral chances above what is good for the country. The prime example being their use of illegal immigration at the southern border as a cudgel against Dems. Well, here's there chance to make some incremental progress in advancing immigration reform. I hope they use the chance to get something done.
