House democrats pass H.R.6 " the American Dream and Promise Act of 2019"
While many Americans are horrified by an open border, House democrats passed a bill which would provide permanent protections and offer a pathway to citizenship for more than two million immigrants. The bill provides permanent status not just to undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as minors, but also to those living in the U.S. under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) programs.
Representative Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA) a key sponsor of the bill
The bill most likely will fail in the US Senate.
The vote was 237 to 187. Seven Republicans voted Yea. All the democrats voted Yea.
Here are the Republicans who voted Yes:
Bacon (NE-2)
Diaz-Balart (FL-25)
Fitzpatrick (PA-8)
Newhouse (WA-4)
Smith (NJ-4)
Hurd (TX-23)
Upton (MI-6)
As with Obama's DACA action, the doomed H.R.6 is obviously being used to garner Hispanic votes during an election year.

To be filed under "It's who they are"
Unlimited amnesty for all is their ultimate goal. Once that is achieved borders will be worthless; so will local, state, and federal elections.
It is no longer about building other countries up; it is about tearing the US down.
" While many Americans are horrified by an open border"
So which Republicans are suggesting we spend the billions on building a northern border wall? Oh, that's right, none of them because they are for open borders, they refuse to even build a small portion of wall between us and Canada. Why? Because even though 70% of the illegal immigrants get here by overstaying their visas, and Canada is the country where the majority of illegal overstays are coming from, they're NOT brown and don't speak a different language. So let's not fool ourselves, rational Americans know what this is all about. We know what it is that so many bitter and angry conservatives are pissed off about and it's not the "open border" or illegal immigrants, it's about their perceived "white culture" being "assaulted" by brown immigrants so they scream about wanting a wall between them and the "invaders" they have been all riled up about by lying piece of filth bigoted right wing pundits.
I want immigration reform, secure borders and a safe, legal option for migrant workers to come and work and pay taxes and then go home like so many other immigrant workers do from other countries. The immigrants are not the enemy, the poverty, violence, oppression and abusers they are fleeing from are the enemy. Let's spend our resources fighting those things, not tearing apart families simply because they don't look or speak like us.
Could you imagine if we had treated those coming from our norther border like we did those from the South? How would you react if this were the story we were reading?
" President Donald Trump's administration does not know how many migrant children were separated from their parents at the Northern border in the year before the "zero-tolerance" policy launched , and is unlikely to figure it out, according to court papers filed Friday night."
"The total number of Canadian children separated from a parent or guardian by immigration authorities is unknown," according to the report.
The court filings on Friday, mandated by a federal judge in Minnesota, show the administration could not confirm or deny reports of thousands of additional family separations.
The Trump administration said in a court filing that reuniting thousands of migrant children separated from their parents or guardians at the U.S.- Canada border may not be “within the realm of the possible.”
And just so you know, this is not about hating on Canada. I love Canadians, but I also love Mexicans and all the other nationalities in South America regardless of their skin color, culture or language and I enjoy listening to other languages spoken.
Show us the migrant workers surging over the northern border from Canada? Show us all those Canadians seeking refugee status? Oh, that's right Canada is not a dictatorship nor is that nation an impoverished third world basket case. So,your entire argument is yet another false, disgusting claim of racism! If this is such a "racist" country, then why are all those non-whites risking their lives to get in?
Remember the rules over here!

So, you now admit why they come. We can all agree on why they come. What is your idea of immigration reform?

We tried that remember? The money we gave to the corrupt failed states they come from, never got used for any of that.

So don't we all. Last warning on the race BS!
U.S. Citizens "DREAM" too.
I guess that's not important to "Liberals" !
