You are correct. The 5000 deal with those attempting to come here legally. I don’t think they can house that many but more than that, it does nothing to deal with illegal immigration. Isn’t that what we this should be all about?That's not accurate. It's 5,000 interactions at the border before it can be auto shut down. That portion doesn't speak to them being allowed in or not. Not in favor of this bill for many reasons. But this is false
Take Trump out of the equation, why on earth should this bill pass?
Blah blah blah. That's a nice word salad.Recent high marks for illegal immigration have topped 10,000 per day.
The bill would state that if there are 4,000 on average, then Homeland Security can close the border. If it hit 5,000 average per day, or 8,500 in just one day, the border is AUTOMATICALLY shut down.
I realize you want it to be zero. I'm not sure that's realistic, but ok, starting from there..... that will not pass. THIS bill -- if Trump had not intervened to kill it to help his election chances -- would have passed and would have been a step in the right direction.
Those of you unwilling to admit that this is the umpteenth example of election year politics -- this time from Trump -- becoming a roadblock to addressing this issue are simply fooling yourselves.

The bill reportedly allocates 250,00 work permits to the adult sons and children of foreign visa workers. This would be a new giveaway to the visa workers who bring their children to the United States and a new hit to American graduates. Each year, roughly 800,000 Americans graduate from four-year colleges with skilled degrees — and they will lose out when visa workers can quietly steer Fortune 500 jobs to the adult sons and daughters.
You're saying Trump claimed the border wasn't secure in 2019? Doesn't sound like something he would sayNor according to Trump, when he was President. Trump said in 2019 that he needed authority from Congress to actually close it.
Of course, now he's running. And so does not want progress to be made.
You might have a point if it didn't have Ukraine funding tied to it. Thats been the play all along by the dems. Force Ukraine funding by tying it to border security. This was discussed months ago. You are being disingenuous at bestRecent high marks for illegal immigration have topped 10,000 per day.

Current POTUS tried to end debt repayments with them. He's pretty confident in the power of his unconstitutional pen.Nor according to Trump, when he was President. Trump said in 2019 that he needed authority from Congress to actually close it.

Interesting.

This might be the most insane part.This bill grants the far-left DC District Court exclusive authority over future immigration disputes.
