208 Republicans just voted to block immigrants who served in the US military from becoming Americans

Looks like another Democrat ploy to make Republicans look bad.
All we need is a bunch of people trying to join the military as a shortcut to citizenry.

What is the actual bill?

Those that serve already have a path to citizenship. That was done years ago.

also in the bill

Among other things, the bill also

• requires the Department of State to implement a strategy to advance reforms in Central America and address key factors contributing to migration from the region to the United States,
• requires the State Department to establish refugee processing centers in Central America,
• requires Customs and Border Patrol sectors and stations to have a certain number of employees with certain qualifications such as paramedic training,
• generally prohibits religious discrimination in granting or denying immigration benefits, and
• establishes grant programs for providing training and services to immigrants.

Do they know what it means to be an American ..........immigrants of illegals........,

Ongoing issue. Who cares if military service provides a path to naturalization? It's obvious.

They Were Willing to Make the Ultimate Sacrifice for the U.S., but Trump Wouldn't Let Them Become Americans

We're representing thousands of non-citizen U.S. military service members in a class-action lawsuit against the Pentagon demanding their right to citizenship.

Fuck them. How about reinstating all those military members who were forced out by the vaccine mandates first?

It's always "America last" with these Biden cocksuckers.

Nahhhhh... they just aren't too keen on Illegal Aliens who hire-on as pseudo-mercenaries in order to get a foot in the door...

We're a nation of 330,000,000 souls... with less than 2,000,000 serving in uniform... we have enough warm bodies to fill our needs without Illegals barging-in.

If they made a required 6 years of active-duty service for entry into the country a mandate these illegals would stay away.
Citizenship...20 years honorable service....minimum.

Why not? It worked for the Legions for 4 or 500 years...

Your thread title is a LIE, stop hanging out with Democrats they are rubbing off on you. Replace the word "immigrants" with "illegals" who broke our laws.

That is sick. They should be prosecuted in for their punishment they should be forced to serve in the military. Hopefully that will make them a little more patriotic.

What would you expect from a group that tried or supported the overthrow of this government, its democracy and our country. Add in the fact that they have no qualms about dumping the constitution and force in a dictator on the issue of a 100% lie. They are simply traitors to this country or support traitors to this country. It has become totally clear that they are this country's biggest threat and enemy and should be treated as such.

 

[BluesLegend]

A show of hands, who thinks foreigners who blatantly break our laws should not suffer the consequences?
