The so-called ‘compromise’ immigration bill that failed to pass the House this week was not a compromise at all – not a single Democrat was consulted in the drafting of the bill. This bill had no significant differences from the Goodlatte bill which also failed to pass last week.
Neither piece of legislation presented any real solutions to fixing our broken immigration system, providing a path to citizenship for Dreamers, or reuniting children with their parents after being unjustly separated at the border.
This administration & Republicans want you to believe that we only have two choices when it comes to immigration enforcement: we either must separate families & incarcerate immigrants, much like we did to Japanese Americans during WWII, or else we will have ‘open borders’ & crime
To say that we are limited to only those options, and to refuse to bring up the multitude of legislative proposals that have bipartisan support, is deeply disingenuous. We have clear alternatives.
We can process asylum requests & use alternatives to detention for individuals and families awaiting their immigration proceedings, like the successful Family Case Management Program the President chose to abruptly end, despite its proven success.
We can reunite families, give #Dreamers a path to citizenship, and work together toward comprehensive immigration reform.
The President has decided that we must be hostile to immigrants and Congressional Republicans have chosen to align themselves with his fear-mongering, xenophobic agenda. He is trying to use this as a wedge issue to misinform and terrify people, and we cannot allow him to do so.
Lying sack!Even Mexican American citizens working at the border helping kids said most kids are not coming with their parents.They're coming in with abusive coyotes. The young girls parents giving them 3 month birth control shots cause they know they'll be raped across the desert
Some of the immigrant children are afraid of the person claiming to be their parent. Tell the facts!!
