The Democrats Obstruct Immigration Reform for a 5th Time

[The Original Tree]

90% of The Democrats in The Senate voted down all 4 Immigration Reform Proposals.

This is the 5th time The Democrats have been offered very good deals on Immigration Reform and have refused to support it. Even offering the Democrats a path to citizenship for 1.8 Million DACA qualifiers who have not been deported yet, only because of Obama's Executive order delaying deportation, is apparently not enough for The Democrats.

Let's face it. They don't care about Illegal Immigrants, and they are only using this and keeping this as a campaign issue for this year. Shameful Really.

DACA Deal: GOP should join Trump in demanding real immigration reform in exchange for any amnesty

 

[The Original Tree]

The Official Democrat Line?

Notice they never mention American Citizens and their rights.
I guess a path to citizenship for 1.8 million people = hatred & bigotry?

WTF?

At least this is a step up for them. They finally admit that Donald J. Trump was elected.


“Democrats believe immigration is not just a problem to be solved, it is a defining aspect of the American character and our shared history.”

-Democratic Party Platform

Democrats are fighting for every immigrant who feels threatened by Donald Trump’s election. We will not stand by and watch families be torn apart — Democrats in Congress and in states and cities across the country are already standing up to Trump’s hatred and bigotry to defend their immigrant neighbors.

Democrats will continue to work toward comprehensive immigration reform that fixes our nation’s broken immigration system, improves border security, prioritizes enforcement so we are targeting criminals - not families, keeps families together, and strengthens our economy.

Rejecting 5 straight Immigration Reform Deals, I guess, constitutes:

"working toward comprehensive immigration reform that fixes our nation’s broken immigration system, improves border security, prioritizes enforcement so we are targeting criminals"

All countries control their border crossing and have immigration laws.
The Voters need to start making the Dirty Democrat Politicians explain why they are against controlling border crossing and enforcing our immigration laws.

If it isn't clear to voters yet, this is another indication Democrats/Liberals only care about themselves....no one else.

The Dimwits are making official statements like this and then 90% of them are voting against the very immigration reform that addresses their below official policy-platform statement.

Democrats only try to stop Republicans from doing evil.

Remember this:

When Republicans held 9 million sick and disabled children hostage?

Besides the GOP, who is that evil?

 

[Rambunctious]

Told ya dreamers not to hitch your wagon to the democrats...they don't want you to gain the right to stay in America...they want to keep getting your votes and dollars...they can't get either if Trump is allowed to fix the issue...

 

[The Original Tree]

Also, notice their stance on Unlawful Sanctuary Cities:

"Democrats in Congress and in states and cities across the country are already standing up to Trump’s hatred and bigotry to defend their immigrant neighbors."

So it's official Democrap Policy to be lawless and oppose Federal Laws and Statutes to the endangerment of The American People, and Citizens of The United States of America.

They are facing state defaults in the very near future as their tax bases collapse.

There is one of thing that MUST be done and it must be done by the House.
Now I'm not sure if the GOP members of the House are smart enough to
understand that they can get a big leg up on the dems in November by just
passing a similar bill and sending it onto the Senate. If they are smart
enough, they may wrap up the midterms in the next two weeks.

The country is 60% for all of these things. They pass a bill and those dems in
the Senate don't cave...the Dems are finished as a Party.

Schumer is trying to say that the Dems didn't vote for anything because of Trump. Well, if the House sends them a bill...The onus is on their back.
They'll be reduced to two options. Cave and accept the fire from their
far left base or vote against it, which will enable the GOP to make big
gains in the Senate and keep the House.

The American people are all for Trump's idea. They want this reform and
they want that border secured. PLus they believe Trump has given them
an ideal compromise by giving them DACA illegals.

It's up to the House

Just tell me why Democrats are opposed to eliminating the family thingy and the VISA lottery. If we need more skilled workers than kindly grandparents, can't that change be okay? Does that mean an actual cut in the # of immigrants or just giving those 50,000 slots to others waiting to get in?

They are facing state defaults in the very near future as their tax bases collapse.

Which is one of the reasons they want illegals. Since they are counted in the Census (this needs changed) they can receive Federal Dollars for each illegal immigrant that shows up on The Census.

 

[busybee01]

I would have voted against the bills as well. They were bad bills. Interesting that Trump's bill only gets 39 votes.

 

[shockedcanadian]

It's clear they are using the same approach Canada is using to NAFTA, wait it out and hope the media, foreign globalist money and influence will weaken the GOP after the mid terms.

You guys better be getting more involved than just posting your outrage on here. I sent out two emails today to 5 or 6 politicians and a few companies and organizations by cc regarding NAFTA and tariffs before it was 8 a.m. I've learned the hard way, you stay silent you get screwed over silently. Better to make some noise (in a dignified and diplomatic manner) and ruffle some feathers and call out the abuses as publicly as possible.

Unless people give a damn and start rallying as they did when Trump was campaigning, you won't be able to push back this absurdity to Americans.

If ISIS were pouring across our southern border illegally by the millions would we gift them amnesty, citizenship, and the right to vote in our elections? How about north Koreans? Russians? Taliban?

Hmmm...all the fricken Democrats that don't mind shutting down government, holding our military hostage over DACA, which they obviously are not interested in fixing.

Everyone should be contacting their Representatives. They need to get the message.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Donald Trump???
UH.......what about Obama??? He broke up more families than any other President in history!!
Guess it was OK when a Democrat did it?

 

[harmonica]

it's simple--we need to cut legal immigration big time--this is not 1850 or 1950
I've given many reasons why before
...police not being able to arrest or even detain illegals is UNBELIEVABLE --stop that crap NOW

Enemies are already pouring across the border. Many people do not know that multiple Radical Islamic Terrorist Groups are allied with the Mexican DRUG CARTELS.

So a lot of The Meth, Heroin and other crap is either imported in to Mexico from the Middle East, or The Mexican Drug Cartels also have Financial Partnerships with Jihadis. That then gets carried across our border by Mexican, and South American Illegals working as Drug Mules.

Make no mistake, we are under attack.
